what I feel like people who use AI don’t understand is that we’re not mad about putting effort into the product we’re mad about the time it takes. Like I could honestly tell you there are an infinite amount of times where I wished “fuck I wish this would go faster” not “I wish this would be done with already” bc there is such a limited amount of time in a day. If I want to draw I’m taking away from work sleep chores other projects bc people go to work and school for 9 hours not to mention travel time and off the clock things eating Every. Single. Day. But we don’t have a choice bc if we don’t work we basically die. It’s more about wanting the luxury of time than offloading the process of learning to create.

Oh but yk fuck it bc actually creating is the art. putting in the prompt and having AI spit smth out is not creating. The entirety of art is about the processss. You don’t ask for something, have it given to you, then say you made that. YOU DIDNT MAKE IT. That’s like if I commed art and say I made it. Cause I thought of the concept told an artist and asked them to make it based on what I said. The artist made it!!!!!! And in the case of AI they fucking steal real artists’ artwork cobble it together and you just eat it right up man

if i may say one thing about in-community tumblr aspec discourse. I think We As A Broad Community have a real tendency to get tunnel vision and severely over-estimate how good groups just adjacent to our own groups have it. on a pretty regular rotation I'll see waves of posts on the varying themes of "sex-favorable asexuals are completely palatable and accepted now" "everyone's on board with asexuals and aroaces but no one can stand the idea of aroallos" "ace people are accepted just fine as long as they're 100% virginal and sex-repulsed but god forbid you have a more complex relationship with sex" "everyone loves aro activism but start saying asexual talking points and they get scared" and, comrades, none of this is the case. there is no variety of acespec or arospec person who does not experience massive barriers to even basic self-expression, and this is only somewhat better in queer-majority social spaces. certain friend circles may individually be chiller about some kinds of aspecs but this does not mean that ex. "asexual perverts are too normalized," aphobia towards all aspecs is still the norm. let us not forget that We Live In A Society.

Some tumblr users are evil woke. They use the power of good for evil.
