hey netizens! i'm not sure how many people are aware, but youtube's been slowly rolling out a new anti-adblock policy that can't be bypassed with the usual software like uBlock Origin and Pi-Hole out of the gate

BUT, if you're a uBlock Origin user (or use an adblocker with a similar cosmetics modifier), you can add these commands in the uBlock dashboard (under My Filters) to get rid of it!

youtube.com##+js(set, yt.config_.openPopupConfig.supportedPopups.adBlockMessageViewModel, false) youtube.com##+js(set, Object.prototype.adBlocksFound, 0) youtube.com##+js(set, ytplayer.config.args.raw_player_response.adPlacements, []) youtube.com##+js(set, Object.prototype.hasAllowedInstreamAd, true)

reblog to help keep the internet less annoying and to tell corporations that try shit like this to go fuck themselves <3

when i was a freshman in college i wanted to dress up for halloween because i thought surely college students would have the spirit. so i elected to put a whole entire Skull Kid from legend of zelda majora’s mask cosplay together and wear that fucking ensemble to college on halloween.

i step on campus and realize immediately that not one other person is dressed up. not so much as a cat ear headband. so imagine this fucking dude sitting in a class of otherwise normally dressed people looking like this. that was me. this was my 9/11

A note to all creatives:

Right now, you have to be a team player. You cannot complain about AI being used to fuck over your industry and then turn around and use it on somebody else’s industry.

No AI book covers. No making funny little videos using deepfakes to make an actor say stuff they never did. No AI translation of your book. No AI audiobooks. No AI generated moodboards or fancasts or any of that shit. No feeding someone else’s unfinished work into Chat GPT “because you just want to know how it ends*” (what the fuck is wrong with you?). No playing around with AI generated 3D assets you can’t ascertain the origin of. None of it. And stop using AI filters on your selfies or ESPECIALLY using AI on somebody else’s photo or artwork.

We are at a crossroad and at a time of historically shitty conditions for working artists across ALL creative fields, and we gotta stick together. And you know what? Not only is standing up for other artists against exploitation and theft the morally correct thing to do, it’s also the professionally smartest thing to do, too. Because the corporations will fuck you over too, and then they do it’s your peers that will hold you up. And we have a long memory.

Don’t make the mistake of thinking “your peers” are only the people in your own industry. Writers can’t succeed without artists, editors, translators, etc making their books a reality. Illustrators depend on writers and editors for work. Video creators co-exist with voice actors and animators and people who do 3D rendering etc. If you piss off everyone else but the ones who do the exact same job you do, congratulations! You’ve just sunk your career.

Always remember: the artists who succeed in this career path, the ones who get hired or are sought after for commissions or collaboration, they aren’t the super talented “fuck you I got mine” types. They’re the one who show up to do the work and are easy to get along with.

And they especially are not scabs.

*that’s not even how it ends that’s a statistically likely and creatively boring way for it to end. Why would you even want to read that.

ML Season 5 finale in a nutshell:

[Video description: a digitally drawn animation featuring two cat characters: Pinepaw, a spiky blue cat who’s thinking about the other cat throughout the video with a love-struck expression and Cormorantpaw, a shorthaired black cat with scars who’s sitting next to him with an unreadable expression. End ID.]

Pinepaw and Cormorantpaw from @barrenclan! Thought this audio fit them (in the first few issues at least) so I made this :3

I had this idea even before I’ve got a tumblr account and was looking through the blog when I first discovered the comic (latest issue was #14) and there were a few asks and jokes about what Cormorantpaw is thinking about, so this was based on those asks! (They were from around September 2022 I think) And recently I finally got the time and motivation to draw it :]

(The song is Macintosh plus 420 ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQkPcPqTq4M) and was my edition to the audio)

Detailed video description + transcript under the cut.

[Video description and transcript:

A 14 seconds long digitally drawn animation.

Pinepaw, a spiky blue and white tom with yellow eyes is sitting next to Cormorantpaw, a short-haired black tom with hazel eyes and a big scar across his face.

Pinepaw thinks and blushes: “I wonder if he’s gonna kiss me” while looking at Cormorantpaw who is starring off into space with an unreadable expression.

Next shot is a close up of Pinepaw blushing and thinking: “He’s so handsome”. Behind him is a dreamy image of Cormorantpaw with sparkles around the black cat and a pink background with swirling clouds.

Next is close up of Pinepaw from another angle with a love-struck expression thinking: “ I wonder what he’s thinking about…”

Last shot is Cormorantpaw from chest up with the same unreadable expression. In his thought bubble is a video of a 3D rat spinning while the Macintosh plus 420 music is playing. End video description.]

America really is irredeemably evil. This article in the new york times ADMITS that prisons are an industry in America, yet tries to convince its readers to empathize with the people enforcing US law in these prisons, with NO empathy for the people incarcerated there

Can I watch a great film knowing the actresses in it were terrorized and mistreated the entire time? Can I watch a football game knowing that the players are getting brain injuries right before my eyes? Can I listen to my favorite albums anymore knowing that the singers were all beating their wives in between studio sessions? Can I eat at the new fancy taco place knowing when the building that used to be there got bulldozed eight families got kicked out of their homes so they could be replaced with condos and a chain restaurant? Can I wear the affordable clothes I bought downtown that were probably assembled in a sweatshop with child labor? Can I eat quinoa? Can I eat this burger? Can I drink this bottled water? Can I buy a car and drive to work because I’m sick of taking an hour each way on the subway? Whose bones do I stand on? Whose bones am I standing on right now?
