Reaching for his pen, he then commenced to try to write the story of his life
Working all day and sleeping all night, what was there to say, what was there to write
Loving is for rich men, hating is for poor men, money is for fighters, crying is for writers
Living in the center of his own little world, his face never seen, his voice never heard
An endless stream of sorrow flows, a victim of the life he chose
Might as well write about the working of a 40 horsepower combustion engine
Putting down his pen, he turned and said I want to live but I wish I were dead
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh

Necklace Gifted by Napoleon to His Wife Among Priceless Jewels Stolen from the Louvre in Daylight Heist
Paris woke up stunned on a quiet Sunday morning on October 19, when news broke that one of the most secure museums in the world, “the Louvre” had fallen prey to a meticulously planned daylight robbery. In an audacious act that seemed straight out of a Hollywood script, a group of four thieves executed a daring heist, stealing priceless jewels, including a diamond necklace once gifted by Napoleon Bonaparte to his wife, Empress Marie-Louise.
🚨 The Louvre in Paris has fallen victim to a bold robbery!
Thieves broke into the Galerie d’Apollon and made off with royal jewels linked to Napoleon and Empress Eugénie. The museum is closed as authorities investigate this shocking cultural crime.

The contents of this thread was originally written in a pinned thread on my Bsky 'art' account.
It's probably easiest to contact me on Bsky, as I'm most active on there, but I'll share a guide from Tumblr underneath as well as the contents of the FAQ thread I made.
On Bsky
If you are interested in a Webglaze invite key please follow this 3 part instructions guide for streamlining the process for both of us. I get 20 invite keys regularly and keep a wait-list.
1. Follow me so I can follow DM you back the invite.
2. Please prepare some kind of proof of you being an artist.
3. Like & reply to the Bsky thread when you've done both step 1 and 2.
Important! I've locked the thread so only followers can reply to it. You can unfollow me on there after you've gotten the invite if you want.
On Tumblr
The process is similar to Bluesky.
1. Comment below this post and I'll follow you when I see it and comment back.
2. If your blog is an art blog there's no need to prepare anything, but otherwise please prepare some kind of proof of you being an artist.
3. Message me when you see my reply.
Other general info
> JFYI. You can both share link in your reply or DM. If it's to another website than the one you are messaging me on I need to verify you on there through messages and I can't sign up everywhere.
Websites I am on:
Tumblr
Artgram

Thank you for coming to my 🧵thread-talk!
FAQ Below
Q1: Why are you using this account instead of @707kat.bsky.social?
A1: Because I don't want my main accounts DM to be overrun with webglaze related DMs.
Q2: What happens if you run out of invites?
A2: I get invites renewed regularly and keep a wait-list. I also know others handing out keys.
Q3: Why do I have to prove I'm an artist?
A3: Webglaze is run by @theglazeproject.bsky.social and they use resources in the form of compute on glazing your work. In order not to have bad actors abuse it they and the people handing out keys try to vet that it's artists that get invites.
Q4: Are you affiliated with and if not why are you handing out invites?
A4: I'm not. I'm an independent hobby artist who was entrusted with a special account that generate invite keys. I and several others volunteer our spare time to hand out keys to other artists.
Q5: Why doesn't the team do it themselves?
A5: The team does hand out keys, but they are a small research team and the volume of the requests is overwhelming. That might be why you haven't received a key from them when making a request. Here's their instructions on how to get an invite from them.
Q6: Glaze and Nighshade is snakeoil. It doesn't work.
A6: Glaze and Nightshade are not a permanent solutions. The team acknowledges this on their website and explains why that is as well as acknowledges instances where it's been broken in the past by other researchers. See Risks and Limitations.
Q7: If it's not a permanent solution, then why do it at all?
A7: I'll let the Glaze team speak for themselves here:
source: Glaze- What is Glaze.
Risks and Limitations.
Research in machine learning moves quickly, and there are inherent risks in relying on a tool like Glaze.
Changes made by Glaze are more visible on art with flat colors and smooth backgrounds. The new update (Glaze 2.0) has made great strides along this front, but we will continue to look for ways to improve.
Unfortunately, Glaze is not a permanent solution against AI mimicry. Systems like Glaze face an inherent challenge of being future-proof (Radiya et al). It is always possible for techniques we use today to be overcome by a future algorithm, possibly rendering previously protected art vulnerable. Thus Glaze is not a panacea, but a necessary first step towards artist-centric protection tools to resist AI mimicry. Our hope is that Glaze and followup projects will provide protection to artists while longer term (legal, regulatory) efforts take hold.
Well this is a new low for Nosetoons, he has gone on a huge rant on art theft yet doesn't care if he posts someone else's artwork without permission (mine is the one on the right)
