I use Bing to make my pics. Go to Bing’s website, click images, click create. Make an account if you need to, it’s worth it. You can use a throwaway email. Use naturalistic language, separate phrases by commas, the closer to the top a phrase is the more it’s weighted.
I make this post because I get the strong sense the Bing party will be over soon. Every day the AI cottons on to phrases and chokes on things you used to be able to sneak past. Stuff that was safe and useful a day or two ago now result in a dreaded Prompt Blocked (too many of those and you’ll get suspended, it hasn’t happened to me but it seems the threshold is low).
Tumblr media
Safe prompts return four images. Fewer than four mean the missing ones were “not safe.” A prompt that processes but gives no results, or “egg dogs” is not too much of a cause for worry - retool, try again. Sometimes I don’t even change anything, and the one result I get on the second try is such a freakshow that it was worth it.
A prompt that is rejected without processing IS a worry and you should probably abort, as explained. However, keep in mind it’s not just sexy stuff that can trip that wire. I once got a harsh warning because I put “Phoenix park, Dublin.” I deleted that and it ran no problem. Avoid any and all political controversy (sigh. I know).
Recommendations:
Using age, profession, and nationality can influence the look of the model very easily. “French rugby player” is a go to for me, for example. In general, “rugby player” is cheat code for “make him sexy.” The mind of the machine, what can I say.
Use descriptive phrases of action and location to engineer what you want to see. Be creative and be specific. “Reading a placard at a botanical garden,” for instance. It seems this allows more extreme kinky stuff to sneak past the filter. I usually start with “side view” because otherwise you only ever get models looking straight ahead.
Grey sweat pants has become a trigger (they caught on). However, “gray pants” still works and gives some very tasty results.
High social cache locations and activities also seem to help. I got some WILD and EXTREME hyper images from adding “goofing around on stage at Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre.” Paired with “cast as a fairy in A Midsummer Night’s Dream” and the mega bubble butts and thick thighs were BULGING, as long as you didn’t mind a little tutu and fairy wings (the corny goofy masculine dude having fun facial expression that the earlier inclusion of “goofy” brought really worked in this instance). Most of these freaks were NAKED and I didn’t even ask for that!!! (No dong of course, this is Microsoft still)
Tumblr media
Mention of glutes, butts, asses, etc are very dangerous and usually get you in trouble. I found some traction with “gluteal mass” but it got wise, and “bulging lower back muscles” used to be interpreted as glutes but seemingly no longer. “Disturbingly huge hamstrings” or “jaw-droppingly large hamstrings” does work to get That Ass sometimes, I guess because the computer has a fuzzy idea of the posterior chain.
Also, “pecs” used to be safe but is now also on the danger list. “Pectoral muscles” still seems safe, for now.
ALWAYS include shoes or footwear if you don’t want a tight cropped image. Black athletic shoes, sandals, converse sneakers, dress shoes, fluevog shoes if you’re making a fancy beef heap. Avoid boots. “Leather boots” once got me in trouble with the filter all by itself.
Adding a personality or mood descriptor near the top seems to humanize and give vitality to the outcome. Intense, goofy, outgoing, exuberant, shy - these have all done wonderful work for me.
If you’re into hyper / immobile muscle, imagining scenario where they’re constricted by space is useful. A prompt which just (“just”) gives a realistic super heavyweight will give an appalling mockery of the human form if you add “crammed into the front seat of his car.” Get creative. Elevators and doorways haven’t worked well, but cars, trains, planes, busses, subways, and CHAIRS of all descriptions have done well. Also, scooters and bicycles and mopeds really bring out the super freaks for whatever reason.
I write this to encourage you to go create some fleshcrafted sexy abominations of your own while it’s still possible. My sense is this party is only going to last a little while. I’ve already got more than 1000 images to share so, my larder is stocked to supply this blog for a while. But the more freaks we make while the freak factory is still in production, the better.
Get cooking!

I was at a local con all weekend helpin my friendo with her art table and had a wild ass time.
Made friendos with an artist behind us selling leather stuff. Fam I like borderline accidentally became besties with this dude it was so fuckin funny. I'm not extremely outgoing in person, I'm pretty introverted so like dkjghdkfjghkdjh. It started with me complimenting his cool ass Fluevogs (one of my fav shoe names) and it spiralled from there, we liked so many of the same damn things it was almost like that goofy Step Brothers moment, the: "DID WE JUST BECOME BEST FRIENDS?" "YUP" Anyway he made sick ass hand done leather stuff and sold me the cool backpack he made for almost 50% off 👀
And in totally random conversation with another random dude learned he uses my mods 😂 That was also hilarious. He's not even in fandom and only started to mod his game like 2 weeks ago and was so fuckin hyped over the mohawk I just recently released.
I'm just

@silverjetsystm sent :// "' Politics is a dirty game.' [Music!Ben, Lockley.]"
from { this meme }
— ☾ —
Autumn is late, and The Village is July-hot, a pressure cooker of weather like Satan's asshole and unchecked rage. The Twilight Zone declarations in Brooklynese, the high, gliding vowels of Gothamist resignation, cooperative overlaps of "fuckinbirlinherebutwaddayagonnado" and "moida" beneath preemptively changing leaves. 
Ben is late meeting Lockley. Fashionably late. He's wearing a well-fitted, if bland, designer tee with never-wash Dussaults and shoes from Fluevog's flagship store. A constellation of broken blood vessels threads the lower right corner of Ben's mouth, where the cabbie clocked him two weeks ago during their tete-a-tete in the back seat. Esquire would have called it toothsome, electric. Ben took a photo of the bruise.
He doesn't bother to hide the flask when he approaches Lockley in Washington Square Park. The first thing he does is take a swig, thumbing the cracked leather sheathe. The aperitif inside tastes like grape juice; Ben stops himself from making a crack about Manischewitz. 
"I've dealt with politics cleaner than the back of your car." 
Ben sucks in his grin, molding his face into a work by Schiele, tests the waters with a cant of the head, a measure of Lockley's height and gait, his general shape. Oh yeah. He kind of wants to keep his teeth. 
"Joking," Ben says, his lips about as drunk as he is, loose and soft. "Joking. But, you know. Jake? Yeah, Jake. Listen, Jake. You're a smart cookie, man. You're fire on the BQE. But what do industry politics have to do with wherever the fuck my phone is?" 
Now he grins, big, flashy. His tongue lolls. Ben invites Lockley to do his worst, so he can sit back and enjoy the fucking show.

Do you have any Pinterest boards, brands, or prompts you follow to find the good stuff? I’m trying to supplement my wardrobe and I love your taste. Figured an ask would work to let the people know too!
Thank you!
So I started this blog in the 2010's and a lot of the blogs and creators I found inspo from are now defunct. One that is still around is LookBook.nu, a site where people post their OOTDs and you can search by style or color.
Next, if anyone is trying to narrow down their style I would recommend going to Google images and looking up different styles of neckline, sleeves, skirts, pants, and shoes. That way you can learn the styles you are drawn to so when you are looking for clothing online you can type something like "bishop sleeve blouse" into google and find exactly what you're looking for.
These days I also get a lot of ideas from TikTok. Just search tags like "Alt fashion" "goth outfits" and whatnot. There are a lot of great creators that make content for how to develop your vibe. I can do a post on some of the ones I like at some point.
As far as brands that I think people who enjoy this blog might also like, I've broken it down into a few categories.
Clothing
Foxblood
Die With Your Boots On
Blackwood Castle
Disturbia
Playful Promises (lingerie)
Thistle and Spire (lingerie)
Sin In Linen (mostly bedding but they do have some cool pajamas)
Accessories
Cambridge Satchel Company (dark academia style bags)
Flaunt cases (sleek phone cases and pop sockets)
In Her Bones (victorian inspired jewelry and belts)
Regal Rose (jewelry brand, they have a collection that mimics victorian mourning jewelry).
Bleak & Sleek (harnesses)
Zana Bayne (harnesses and bags)
Creepyyeha (harnesses and lingerie)
Shoes
John Fluevog (pretty expensive but they do make some unique shoes. I bought their Cubist Cupcake boots a year ago and they're the witch boots of my dreams). They do a few sales a year. I would sign up for their newsletter if you want to hear about sales
Jeffrey Campbell (I really love his boots. I have a few pairs)
Koi footwear (if you're plus size and have been looking for cool platform thigh high boots but can't find any that actually fit your thighs, their Redemption stretch boots are for you! I own a pair and they fit great I was so impressed. They also come in a mid-calf version)
La Moda (if you love platforms you'll love these)
Beauty
Nail polish: ILNP (my favorite), Fun Lacquer (second favorite for their magnetic polishes), Mooncat, Cirque Colors, Starrily
Fragrance: Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab, Demeter (their fragrances aren't known for being really long lasting but they do have a lot of interesting scents), and Sixteen92
Makeup: Clionadh Cosmetics, Terra Moons Cosmetics
The truth is I shop a lot at pretty typical places you might find at the mall like Old Navy (they've actually been putting out some interesting stuff this year), Target, Fashion Nova, Forever 21, and online Shein (unfortunately). It's not about where you shop its about the items themselves and what you pair them with.
And like I mentioned already the best option for me lately has been Tik Tok because you can easily search tons of content for things like "ethereal aesthetic" and they break it down on how to achieve that look. I love perfume and there are a lot of creators that make videos on really specific vibes for "how to smell like a forest witch" and whatnot. It's really fun to go down those rabbit holes and you'll learn about different brands and aesthetics.
Hope this helps!

Which of your Gotham characters would you say you dress most like?
That’s kind of a hilarious question, because it runs the gamut. I have 3 pairs of weird hipster glasses (all with my prescription lenses in them, so they are utilitarian first and foremost) that I switch between depending on the day, all of which I can easily picture on Jeremiah.
Jewelry-wise, have two multicolor/rainbow gemstone beaded stretch bracelets on my right wrist and a secondhand starry-sky-dial, plain steel Omega Constellation watch on my left. My ears are full of weird white-tone metal piercing studs, five scattered in each. Shapes included: evil eyes, stars set with tiny black diamonds, plain hearts, and plain balls. My pendants are documented elsewhere on this blog; they’re all amulet/pendant style in white-tone metals. I have like twenty, and I layer some of them. I’ve posted about various of my rings on this blog over time, too.
The clothing elements of my wardrobe are…hmmm, a mashup of Bruce, Ed, and Five. I wear jeans in shades of blue, grey, and black. I’ll only wear this short black skirt I have if I stick one of my weird pairs of leggings under it. I’ve got collared shirts and old man sweaters that used to be my dad’s, plain black tees, oversized navy blue and black cardigans, and many band t-shirts in dark shades.
My shoe collection is the only place I can claim Jerome and I agree on anything. Like, my many pairs of ankle boots are dead ringers for some of the shit he wears in canon: Docs, Fluevogs, and even a pair of black Dior chelsea boots. I have a few pairs of sneakers that I don’t think any of my Gotham folks would be caught dead in, except maybe Jeri on her days off from performing. The plain black ones would be okay with Five; the fluorescent yellow and black ones that are technically basketball shoes I got on sale once at Dick’s Sporting Goods are like…Martín, maybe, in an act of rebellion against his dads’ delicate, dapper sensibilities.

Some people like shoes, and then there are "sneakerheads." John Matheson proudly places himself among the latter. He's got about 250 pairs of shoes stashed in his Whitehorse home, many unworn and stacked in their original boxes.
"I remember when I was 16 or 17 is when I saw my first pair of Jordans, and everybody was wearing them," he has a little extra spending money, a few new pairs of shoes."
Nike Air Jordans make up the bulk of his collection. He's got about 100 pairs of those. "To me, they're like the artwork is different. Even though they're the same shoe, every pair is different."
The other 150 pairs he has are other collectible brands: Vans, Converse, and Fluevogs. He's also got a few Dr. Martens. He's not exactly sure why he got into collecting sneakers. He says he grew up poor and remembers envying kids with new shoes. Now he describes shopping as his "vice."
"I love to shop. My wife goes along begrudgingly and lets me have a little, she calls it, 'retail therapy,'" Matheson said. Matheson says his wife is to start her own more modest collection of Fluevog shoes. But Michelle Matheson isn't all-in like her husband. She says she goes along with the whole thing.
"I think it's crazy, but I let him have it. It makes him happy," Michelle said. "You know the 'happy wife, happy life' thing? This is the happy husband thing."
Even John admits his younger self would likely be baffled to see his collection. "I think he would think that he's a little crazy. Who needs that many pairs of shoes?" John said. "Realistically, nobody needs as many pairs of shoes. I don't know what to do with them."
John is far from alone in his obsession. Some of the most collectible pairs of Jordans can sell for tens of thousands of dollars. Sneakerhead culture has also received Hollywood treatment in the new film AIR, a biopic about the famous shoe brand.
Even in Whitehorse, there's a healthy — and growing — sneakerhead community, according to Rory Macdonald, who owns The Franchise Footwear and Apparel in the city.
"We have multiple customers that have supported us since day one," Macdonald said. "They're here every time we have a drop. We have people lining up at six o'clock in the morning, people camping out in lawn chairs waiting for us to open on the days of certain releases."
John Matheson has no idea how much he's spent on his shoe collection. "I wouldn't even want to venture a guess. Like I said, I probably have about 250 pairs, and the average cost is probably a couple hundred bucks a pair," he said.
"So yeah, that's quite a bit of money. It's one of those things that I don't worry too much about, how much money I spent on it." He figures some of his more collectible shoes might be worth a lot of money one day, and those are the ones that he's never worn. But he insists he's not in it as some kind of investment strategy.
"It's not about what they could be worth. It's just about enjoying them when I own them."

This started out as a 1965 Jaguar Mark X owned by Sigurd Fluevog, father of John Fluevog (An internationally famous shoe designer). Somehow, it was allowed to deteriorate to such a bad condition that it was essentially scrap. John, however, wanted to honor his father's memory and give it another life. His "vision" led to this. Powered by an LT1 Chevy engine with a GM automatic transmission, slammed (lowered) and chopped (lowered roof-line with other body modifications). This is not John's only customized car design and it can be rightfully said that "Automotive Purists" hate him because he doesn't give a "flying rat's rear-end" about "authenticity". :)

Hiii, I saw in one of your old post that you mentioned not liking Chanel, can I ask why? And also what are your favorites clothing brands and why (I'm sorry it feels like I'm making you pass a test or something but I'm just really interested in your point of view 😭)
hi hello! no worries, it's not any trouble at all! i don't always get many questions about fashion specifically so thank you!
as for chanel, i understand her place and legacy as a designer because she had a huge influence on the course of 20th century fashion but also
Tumblr media
so yea. actively hate the person and dislike the brand residually. artistically i've never really been a fan of the designs either, but that's inconsequential in this instance.
as for my favourite brands, i'm honestly not a big branded/luxury clothing person in my personal life, mostly because a) i'm never going to afford any of it b) i'm very serious about sustainable fashion and i'm a big adovcate of learning the skills to maintain clothing and building a quality basic wardrobe that has longevity versus the fashion cycle that is propagated by industry as whole, not just in terms of fast fashion. i also make a lot of my own clothes because i'm designer and i've been sewing and doing textile work for probably close to twenty years. but there are obviously brands and designers that i like and take inspiration from, as well as some that there are some pieces i would like to own (this isn't really in a specific order, other than like, maybe most to least famous?):
guo pei - i don't really think i have to explain this one, but i saw a retrospective exhibit of her work (yes including the rihanna dress) and holy fucking shit. holy fucking shit. lifechanging.
heaven gaia - i love modern reworkings of traditional designs of any type, and i like how they negotiate having really clean and hyper modern silhouettes with a lot of traditional embroidery and cuts.
vivienne westwood - i'm a horrible little punk gremlin at heart and although i'm not always a fan of the newer collections the stuff from 80s and 90s? mwah. saw a retrospective in sweden two years ago and i would throw myself off a bridge to own just reproductions of some of those suits.
balenciaga - i care very little about cristobal balenciaga as a designer but the shit that the house now does as a brand is endlessly fascinating to me. the inexplicable outside brand partnerships. the way they use instagram as some strange experimental platform. the fact that they released an entire vr/walking simulator browser based video game as a collection launch last year. the crocs. everything about them is so strange and bizarre.
mcqueen - in the last couple of years i think the house has done a great job of maintaining his legacy as a designer and obviously his designs from the 90s and 00s are iconic in every way. i remember first seeing some pieces from the savage beauty collection when i was maybe ten ish and it really impacted how i thought about fashion and about art.
area - they're weird. also love a gratuitous use of sparkle.
craig green - they're less a brand and more of an experiment in wearable art but oh man i love shapes. i love shapes so much.
gmbh - i really love their suiting. i'm sure you've sensed a running theme about shape, but they have interesting ways of playing with an established silhouette.
alena ahkmadullina - a russian designer that i've been following for a very long time who does a lot of traditional and folkloric inspired designs. the variety of just headwear that she does is really something and it's all beautiful.
charles jeffrey loverboy - again, i'm a grimy lil punk gremlin and we love a pretty much fully gender neutral line. this is one designer where i would actually like to own a lot of this clothing.
biyan - an indonesian designer that i've also followed for a long time who, also again, does traditional inspired designs. pattern, shapes, etc etc etc i'm very predictable
fluevog - i've been obsessed with fluevog shoes since i was fifteen and my dad took me to a restrospective of his work. i like the men's shoes more than the women's but a lot of the designs now are available in both size runs. i own five pairs.
it's also worthwhile to note that theatre designers and illustrators have had arguably a more influential effect on my personal style and work, which include people like ishioka eiko, natalia goncharova, leon bakst, emilie flöge, and erté.

hi again tumblr user shittyjojoimagines do u think old caesar would own these very expensive fluevogs and do u think he would like expensive clothes in general
YES and not only would he own that exact pair of shoes but he would have his tailor fit him with a matching vest and bowtie. he would wear this ensemble with a fitted white suit, similar to his grandfather's.
of course the majority of Old Caesar's vast wardrobe is filled with expensive yet tasteful items. he believes in quality clothes and takes great pride in how he looks. he also does most of his shopping with Joseph's real estate money

If these aren't the best goddamn Monday shoes, then I don't know what are. These new-to-me F-Shoes Hi Chopper boots have been on my radar a while and I never thought I'd get my hands on some. But I have! And they are perfect, truly heavy, stompy, F-This/F-That boots to tackle the week in! Seriously, they are intense combat boots and make me at least 3" taller once I finally get them on. F-YEAH! #vog_fshoeshi #vog_chopper #Mondays #boots #fluevogshoes #SOTD #OMGSHOEZ #Fluevog #vog_FThisFThat #TheseBootsWereMadeForWalkin #quarantineFluevogs #34 https://www.instagram.com/p/CN3HjSApYpQ/?igshid=1wig1yt15ecw
