DAY 15

GIVE IT UP FOR DAY 15

So y'know that one dream animal from animal crossings new horizons?

This absolute queen?

Well, funny thing is, in the past, whenever i feel horrible i created a character I could talk to in my head that looks and acted almost IDENTICALLY TO LUNA. I don't know if it was my subconsious or not but what i do know is that I meed to sleeep..

Only just realised y'all can see my likes and not just reblogs... safe to say, I have nothing to say... it was just kinda cringe.

If I ever create / start a band I do it with the intention of one day being able to just yell something mundane like "grain of sand" in such a compelling way it shatters someone's kneecaps.

This... this is just my playlist?

I beg your finest pardon?

Please be aware that the "opt-out" choice is just a way to try to appease people. But Tumblr has not been transparent about when has data been sold and shared with AI companies, and there are sources that confirm that data has already been shared before the toggle was even provided to users.

Also, it seems to include data they should not have been able to give under any circumstance, including that of deactivated blogs, private messages and conversations, stuff from private blogs, and so on.

Do not believe that "AI companies will honor the "opt-out request retroactively". Once they've got their hands on your data (and they have), they won't be "honoring" an opt-out option retroactively. There is no way to confirm or deny what data do they have: The fact they are completely opaque on what do they currently "own" and have, means that they can do whatever they want with it. How can you prove they have your data if they don't give everyone free access to see what they've stolen already?

So, yeah, opt out of data sharing, but be aware that this isn't stopping anyone from taking your data. They already have been taking it, before you were given that option. Go and go to Tumblr's Suppport and leave your Feedback on this (politely, but firmly- not everyone in the company is responsible for this.)

Finally: Opt out is not good under any circumstance. Deactivated people can't opt out. People who have lost their passwords can't opt out. People who can't access internet or computers can't opt out. People who had their content reposted can't opt out. Dead people can't opt out. When DeviantArt released their AI image generator, saying that it wasn't trained on people who didn't consent to it, it was proven it could easily replicate the styles of people who had passed away, as seen here. So, yeah. AI companies cannot be trusted to have any sort of respect for people's data and content, because this entire thing is just a data laundering scheme.

Please do reblog for awareness.

Ikigai

So these last couple of days I've been meaning to find out wtf ikigai stands for. I don't know why, but it was one of those thoughts that you forget but always remember.

or those who don't know Ikigai means a reason to live, but feel free to correct me.

It's now safe to say that I am both actively looking for a reason to live while also questioning it, even by complete accident.
