Lorvren, Demon Of Loss & Luck (2019)

I just really fuckin love dragons dude

"is it possible for a [thing] girl and a [different thing] boy to be in a relationship? 🥺" i'll stop you right there. get a notebook cause i'll only tell you once. men and women are not allowed to date each other

show your local dragons some love by contributing to their hoards (especially if they have more specific things) (they will remember this and you can summon them in your hour of need)

my friends are making an AI to replace me but they won't give me paid vacation time >:(

for the last time, you CANNOT pet the Sensory Management Companions. they are grown-ass adults and work very hard to keep their clients from being harassed by the Stimuli

no, just because they are night dragons does not mean they are evil. yes i know they literally hide in the clients' shadows. no you cannot pet them. stop asking to pet them.

yes they are doing a good job- do you want to have your color vision revoked for 7-9 business days

im trying to get the "To Live Forever" achievement in No Man's Sky so i started a permadeath run. It is Hard. not because of any of the actual permadeath stuff, no no. i am very good at the game. it is hard because i have to spend 5 hours building a base EVERY GODDAMN TIME. it is part of the MAIN QUEST. that you CANNOT IGNORE. seething. i absolutely despise this part of the game and if I turn off tutorial quests then it doesn't count as a permadeath run, for some reason...

no mans sky, i love you but like. come on. 40 side quests are not essential to the main quest

the next time i make any dragon character and a D&D nerd starts trying to correct MY lore about MY DRAGONS based on a tabletop roleplaying game's story i am going to shove a mythological compilation of dragons throughout history up their ass and then stab them with a big sword. same goes for people who tell me my dragons arent actually dragons because they have slightly different numbers of limbs. burn in dragon hell.

...save for those with which we partner.

cool. real cool. fuck this. tomorrow i am going to nightshade all of my art (and Glaze it too) and replace every single image on my blog with those versions of it. i might not even opt out just to poison the AI well more (should be opt-in anyway, pricks).

fuck you all. in fact, i might just delete my art sideblog. i'm not gonna post any new art at all actually. I'll pivot to other sites for that. thanks for making this place even more of an uphill battle to have fun and share things on.

Hi, Tumblr. It’s Tumblr. We’re working on some things that we want to share with you. 

AI companies are acquiring content across the internet for a variety of purposes in all sorts of ways. There are currently very few regulations giving individuals control over how their content is used by AI platforms. Proposed regulations around the world, like the European Union’s AI Act, would give individuals more control over whether and how their content is utilized by this emerging technology. We support this right regardless of geographic location, so we’re releasing a toggle to opt out of sharing content from your public blogs with third parties, including AI platforms that use this content for model training. We’re also working with partners to ensure you have as much control as possible regarding what content is used.

Here are the important details:

We already discourage AI crawlers from gathering content from Tumblr and will continue to do so, save for those with which we partner. 

We want to represent all of you on Tumblr and ensure that protections are in place for how your content is used. We are committed to making sure our partners respect those decisions.

To opt out of sharing your public blogs’ content with third parties, visit each of your public blogs’ blog settings via the web interface and toggle on the “Prevent third-party sharing” option. 

For instructions on how to opt out using the latest version of the app, please visit this Help Center doc. 

Please note: If you’ve already chosen to discourage search crawling of your blog in your settings, we’ve automatically enabled the “Prevent third-party sharing” option.

If you have concerns, please read through the Help Center doc linked above and contact us via Support if you still have questions.
