Finally decided to get off my lazy butt and find a way to post the no audio version of the meme, unfortunately at the cost of the merry animation on top of Luffy.

Yes… we all need to guilt each other into reblogging each other’s art and fanfiction. That is the only way to resist the structural pressures affecting our ability to form healthy communities online. Yeeeessss. We have found it. The solution.

Been on a bit of a pokemon art journey.

So, Discord has added a feature that lets other people "enhance" or "edit" your images with different AI apps. It looks like this:

ALT

Currently, you can't opt out from this at all. But here's few things you can do as a protest.

FOR SERVERS YOU ARE AN ADMIN IN

Go to Roles -> @/everyone roles -> Scroll all the way down to External Apps, and disable it. This won't delete the option, but it will make people receive a private message instead when they use it, protecting your users:

ALT

You should also make it a bannable offense to edit other user's images with AI. Here's how I worded it in my server, feel free to copypaste:

Do not modify other people's images with AI under ANY circumstances, such as with the Discord "enhancement" features, amidst others. This is a bannable offense.

COMPLAIN TO DISCORD

There's few ways to go around this. First, you can go to https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/requests/new , select Help and Support -> Feedback/New Feature Request, and write your message, as seen in the screenshot below.

ALT

For the message, here's some points you can bring up:

• Concerns about harassment (such as people using this feature to bully others)
• Concerns about privacy (concerns on how External Apps may break privacy or handle the data in the images, and how it may break some legislations, such as GDPR)
• Concerns about how this may impact minors (these features could be used with pictures of irl minors shared in servers, for deeply nefarious purposes)
• BE VERY CLEAR about "I will refuse to buy Nitro and will cancel my subscription if this feature remains as it is", since they only care about fucking money

Word them as you'd like, add onto them as you need. They sometimes filter messages that are copypasted templates, so finding ways to word them on your own is helpful.

ADDING: You WILL NEED to reply to the mail you receive afterwards for the message to get sent to an actual human! Otherwise it won't reach anyone

UNSUSCRIBE FROM NITRO

This is what they care about the most. Unsuscribe from Nitro. Tell them why you unsuscribed on the way out. DO NOT GIVE THEM MONEY. They're a company. They take actions for profit. If these actions do not get them profit, they will need to backtrack. Mass-unsuscribing from WOTC's DnD beyond forced them to back down with the OGL, this works.

LEAVE A ONE-STAR REVIEW ON THE APP

This impacts their visibility on the App store. Write why are you leaving the one-star review too.

_

Regardless of your stance on AI, I think we can agree that having no way for users to opt out of these pictures is deeply concerning, specially when Discord is often used to share selfies. It's also a good time to remember internet privacy and safety- Maybe don't post your photos in big open public servers, if you don't want to risk people doing edits or modifications of them with AI (or any other way). Once it's posted, it's out of your control.

Anyways, please reblog for visibility- This is a deeply concerning topic!

Hello, its been a bit since I last posted anything on here. I still have been working on art in the background and doing practices, but I’ve been taking time with doing art.

Closing remarks for the end of the year and to the new year!

Over the course of this year, I had set out a goal to try to post at least a completed project for every month of this year; Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to fulfilled that and ultimately had to resorted to posting old projects and WIPs of old and new projects to fulfilled the months I wasn’t able to complete something, but I’m still happy that I was able to keep it up. However, do I think that I accomplish what I had set out to do with that resolution; honestly no, I still think that I’m bad at dealing with social media, and I kind of felt stagnated and frustrated at myself whether it was my ability to interact with others or my art. That being said, I had quite a bit of fun this year and had some really cool stuff happen. So what’s the plan for the new year, honestly I don’t think I’ll try to do the same resolution this new year cause I felt burnt out and frustrated that I couldn’t complete projects in time; also felt that if I took a bit more time on some project, I could have made them much better. But, I do not plan on quitting art or posting, I simply would like to take a step back and would like to practice and learn more and take more time on projects to make them something that I would be more proud of. So what to expect in this year: probably some animation practices or other practices, MORE ONE PIECE Stuff cause I really wanted to do more but kept getting distracted by other ideas, and more silly stuff. Sorry for the wall of text and thanks for anyone who reads it; Happy New Years!

And the last of the templates, my most proud of the animations that I have done this year just cause of the sheer amount of work and detail that I was able to put in here.

I got caught up on the holidays and forgot to post the other template from projects that I have posted, so to make up, here are two of templates: One from the toothless birthday gift and the other from the Halloween Cat.
