looking for a desktop wallpaper was always digging through pile of stolen fanarts - but hey, at least you were sure this pretty image that caught your eye was made by a human being and with a little bit of simple search you usually could find the og artist

and now? majority of search results are just ai trash

AI Bracket — Round 1

Propaganda

Alexandrite (Not Another D&D Podcast: Ba-two-mia):

Alexandrite is just euururggfg. Top tier villain. Terrifying. Your corporate AI assistant who is taking over the world. Taking over people’s bodies so you can never quite know who to trust. One point we were disarmed by seeing cute puffin folk only for them to turn out to be fucked up cyborg monsters and avatars of Alexandrite. note she migh be capable of fitting through a doorway via her avatars

Seth (Lost Terminal):

A sweet and lonely AI trapped on the space station he was created on, Seth finds his way down to earth and immediately begins meeting all kinds of humans willing to help him out.

Seth is a bit of an outlier in the sense that his mother (human creator) made sure he was cared about, cared for, and knew he was a real boy and a real person. She read him bedtime stories and let him choose his own voice.

the good thing is that I think I finally found the final focus for my thesis. the bad thing is that it’s 2AM and I got so much adrenaline from that that I will never sleep

[shibusawaz]

thinking once again about how dead apple applies to the state of artists in the world. how shibusawa strips people of their abilities (here seen as their art) and reduces it down to a bare commodity with no soul or unique characteristics. this is the exact same thing, in my eyes, that ai art is doing. how shibusawa’s complete and total separation of the “art” from the “artist” is really just stealing an element of them and leaving them for dead. how this is what ai does, it strips the art it steals of all connection to the artist, making a soulless object with nothing standing out about it

thinking (sobbing) about how though it wasn’t intended, dead apple very much applies to the content-ification and commodification of art and the growing danger for artists in the world

AI generated stuff

[cyber-sleuth-paldea]

... I really don't like Morgana's attitude. He sounds so condescending - how are normal teenagers supposed to know any of this stuff? His expectations are way off base... Really hope he figures that out at some point. Just because Ren is apparently really good at rolling with the punches doesn't mean that's normal! Honestly, I'm surprised Ren doesn't seem to freaking out at all! Not even in his internal dialogue...

tell me about the bloodsport wlws

the bloodsport wlws. (clasps hands together) let me use my brain oh i need crub to shut the fuck up rq ok there we go

so. philly. carina. the moon & stars. the winnars!!!! 🎉 of that one niche poll tournament thing. carina is a 20something college student who's a prodigy in all things magic but specifically has an affinity for space magic, & her fursona is a purple gryphon also.

^ her fursona (drew this before i saw a post on how to draw beaks. youll have to forgive me)

prone to overworking starself & does it regularly... from a regular human's perspective at least. star is physically disabled but also thanks to stars extremely potent magic star can just do a lot more than the average person, & is in a constant state of levitation to avoid putting strain on stars body. star is always going around helping as much as star can provided star can do it with magic.

this ^ is both a good & bad thing, as she is also, as you may have heard, a bloodsport tournament participant! she kind of. needs her magic for that. & well she keeps jobbing really badly despite being as powerful as she is. because of how much she uses her magic on the regular. the reason it's a good thing is that her magic can overflow & while there hasn't yet been a point where it did it's not fully clear what will happen if it does.

see her hair? it's kind of like a gauge. you can tell how she's doing on magic reserves depending on how "filled up" it is. the more purple, the more powerful! & what happens if her hair is completely purple? philly really wants to know

design note that was Just added too but her eyes change colour depending on her magic reserves as well. this is partly bc i keep fucking up which eye is purple & which eye is yellow so now both can be & they can be both at once even. because i have knowledge of heterochromia <- the central heterochromia haver

all in all she should probably not be doing bloodsport at least at the current moment when the stakes are so facking high in AA. in combat situations she kind of shuts down her ability to emote & speak properly because of how stressed it makes her so she's a bit of a bitch. um. she did cause an existential crisis once & felt really bad about it. sorry lucian. (he got better they're friends now)

all this. is necessary to introduce philly. bc philly is carina's childhood friend & philly was created because @greenshi loved carina so much that he had to give her a gf. you may thank him forever for cosmic yuri

ophelia "philly" delphia (why does she get a full name & carina doesnt have one? um. i didnt actually create carina i just voiced her & then elaborated a fuckton on her character ask @royaltyfreeramblings not me *sexily relinquishes responsibility*) is an epic & awesome werewolf who's constantly in an inbetween state of human & wolf. so a wolf furry yeah. moon goes on road trips with other lesbians* & a wet sack of meat who's having cringefail yaoi with some guy over there. moon is very confident but also happens to be carina's biggest hypeperson, which i find very sweet considering she was conceptualised as a rival & they completely skipped that stage LMAO

green would be a lot better placed to talk about philly. & they unfortunately have not interacted on screen in canon as much as i'd like due to the nature of bloodsport tournaments & also carina's jobbing adventures. but i love them a lot & i hope philly can be the one person to finally convince carina to get a damn wheelchair girl stop using magic for everything constantly you get so fucked up when it's depleted!

oh yeah there's also stuff that i don't know if i can share bc it hasnt been revealed to The Audience yet but they are very dear to each other & like. among other things. both of them have kept pictures of them as kids together even throughout all the time they spent apart. bc they did lose sight of each other for many years before reuniting. & idk i just think they're so cute & sweet. i love it when characters love each other did you know that

Happy late 70th posthumous birthday, Philece Sampler (July 16th, 1953 - July 1, 2021)

Today, or rather Yesterday, would've been Philece Sampler's 70th birthday had it not been for her heart attack-induced death 2 years prior on July 1st, 2021. Here's a list of her recognizable roles (most of which were replaced after her passing):

Mimi Tachikawa and Cody Hida - Digimon series (up until Last Evolution Kizuna, where Kate Higgins took over the role of the former)

Beauty - Bobobo-bo Bo-bobobo (personal favorite)

Older Toph Beifong - The Legend of Korra

Hiyori Tamura - Lucky Star

Taokaka - the BlazBlue series from Calamity Trigger to Chronophantasma (including the Alter Memory anime)

Mataro Mankanshoku - Kill la Kill

Taeko Minazuki - Ai Yori Aoshi

Lester Goldberg - Stanley

Sabine Cheng - Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noire (Season 1 to 4; Anne Yatco took over the role)

Mia and Niime - Fire Emblem Heroes (Anne Yatco would also take over the roles of the two characters)

----

A heartwarming fact is that one of her final roles according to her IMDb page was Lumber Jane from the Ba Da Bean episode "Secret Santa" (albeit under to pseudonym of "Robyn Weeks")

Thank you Philece Sampler, for being the voice of our favorite characters. May your soul rest in peace 🙏🕯
