#internet whack-a-mole]

[sepdet]

Pity the fool who wasted money scraping all of Tumblr.

Discovered: December 26, 4PM MST.

I reported this to Tumblr help, but I dunno how long it'll take @staff to see it they don't have the staff to play whack-a-mole. so it's up to us.

Update Dec 27:

WHOiS turned up CloudFlare as their webhost, but that's just a domain name registar. (It's more complicated than that, but nevermind.) Today, I received a reply from Cloudflare giving me Tumgik's real host & contact info (abuse@digitalocean.com).

Update Dec 28:

Some folks in replies are finding their blogs on tumbex.com instead. I found their host is ovh.com, no cloudflare to hide behind this time. Here's their abuse report form.

Here's What To Do:

Put your blog url into Google search and see if a non-tumblr.com version comes up.

If it doesn't, go back to what you were doing. Otherwise:

If it's Tumbjk, File a DMCA notice with abuse@digitalocean.com.

If it's Tumbex, File a DMCA notice with ovhost.

If it's a different URL, plug it into WhoIsLookup at myip.ms to identify the Web Host, then go to that host's URL and look for a "Report Abuse" "File DMCA" or "Support" link, usually in the footer.

If the Web Host shows as Cloudflare, docontact them, but check your emall after a day. They'll usually tell you the real webhost if your abuse report looks legit.

Report the scraped site to Google. If Google removes it from search results, that kills most of its traffic

Share this post.

When reporting abuse, (a) list the URLs of the copycat (b) list the corresponding URLs to your real blog(s). If there's a box asking for more explanation, try something like "they scraped pages from tumblr'" and/or "these are my personal blogs hosted on the tumblr platform which I started in (year xxxx)].

It doesn't have to be much. The webhost just needs to verify one site is copying the other, which came first, and who is the probable owner— which the thieves admit they aren't, since their "About" page admits they're reposting stuff from Tumblr.

Fly, my pretties, fly!

Trying to get people to realize birds are full on actual no holds barred dinosaurs on the internet is like playing a constant game of whack-a-mole

The game never ends there's just another mole to whack

whack whack whack

about saiki kusuo...

he's a leo.

he's incredibly tidy. if his parents leave the house in a mess, he'll complain but proceed to deep-clean it anyways.

he's a stickler for other people's safety. if he notices someone's shoelace is untied, he'll tie it for them, regardless of the circumstances (ie. smack-dab in the middle of a sports game)

on another note, he seems to have a fixation with tying people's shoelaces for them.

he's weak for sweets in general, not just coffee jelly. sweet tooth saiki!

he has a huge soft spot for kids. this probably stems from his failed childhood friendship with akechi.

he's scared of bugs because he can't read their minds. this implies that powerless!saiki might be a lot shyer, more anxious, and even pricklier, since he doesn't know what anybody's thinking.

he's totally a mama's boy. he learned his moral compass from her, does whatever she wants, believes he was born an esper to protect her, etc.

also, the notorious zebra print blazer was because of his mom.

he's so much of a people-pleaser that he'll sacrifice his desire for anonymity and normalcy; he'll insert himself into situations, stalk people, and use his powers even if it means the spotlight will fall on him.

not only is he a people-pleaser, he's a drama queen. he'd rather concoct elaborate plans to avoid somebody instead of simply rejecting them.

he's a one piece fan.

his favorite arcade game used to be whack-a-mole, and he thought destroying all the moles meant he'd won. he was banned because of this.

his glasses are colored glasses from his childhood toy box. wording implies that he's been wearing this same pair his whole life.

he likes baking/cooking, mostly because he gets to eat the sweets that he made. (househusband saiki... heh.)

he smiled a lot more freely as a kid. when he wasn't wearing a dazed expression, he looked like quite the cheerful child.

he helps kaido out with classwork by simply handing him his own work.

he rarely gets sick, and when he does he can cure himself by turning his body into an inferno through pyrokinesis. however, this means he knows next to nothing about medicine.

similarly, he's tragically naïve about the internet.

he's good at singing and likes karaoke (preferably singing by himself).

like kaido, he gets seasick. however, he fervently denies this. he seems to think himself impervious of the maladies regular people suffer from.

he has a bit of a girly run.

he likes using takahashi as a joke. "it's everyone's favorite, takahashi." he also hates takahashi because of his strong resemblance to akechi's childhood bully, takashi.

he likes hot baths.

when he walks home from school, he follows this routine: he stops at the convenience store, picks up coffee jelly, puts it back on the shelf, then continues home. ...incredible. he seems incapable of not staring at any nearby coffee jelly.

he may be willing to downplay his smarts/talents to avoid trouble, but he'll get competitive when he's with akechi or kusuke.

he's hesitant to cause his friends any harm, but will freely maim toritsuka, so long as the damage is immediately reversed.

he won't hesitate with kusuke, though.

lastly, and most importantly:

he's a cutie patootie <3

I remember what it was like when I was 16, 19–I’d see the current genocide (Darfur, or Serbia, or or or…) and that would be the thing I’d use as a litmus test. If you’re not caring about this atrocity, right now, you’re a bad person.

But the thing is, these don’t stop. There’s always some new unprecedented horror. We need to be able to respond and then keep responding, today, tomorrow, a year from now, the rest of our lives. There will never come a point when justice has been accomplished and we can rest. That’s a fantasy. But we have to rest. So in the meantime, we need to carve out space to exist, to be happy, in a world that has been trying to eradicate whole peoples since long before either of us were born.

The Palestinian genocide is the worst horror I can remember in my lifetime. It needs to stop. What can I, personally, do? What power do I have alone? How do I integrate caring about this genocide into the life I’ve built where I’m an activist for different things? If I were to slit my wrists today, as one Internet rando suggested, what happens to the patients for whom I provide gender care and abortions? You’re free to dislike me, but do you hate me so much you’re willing to sacrifice my patients’ access to gender-affirming care in a county where I was the first out primary care provider ever? How do I balance the demands of activism against my need to live a life with room for emotional regeneration?

If we separate doing something from feeling something, we can construct that space. Your morality is not about developing superpowers in a rigged system. It is not about devoting every waking moment to misery. That is not sustainable, and you need to be able to sustain activism over the long haul, because the atrocities don’t stop. They never stop. We play Whack-a-Mole with them, and hopefully some lives are saved in the meantime.

Morality is about what you do, not what you feel.

It's a bit weird typing out a full post here on tumblr. I used to be one of these artists that mostly focused on posting only images, the least amount of opinions/thoughts I could share, the better. Today, the art world online feels weird, not only because of AI, but also the algorithms on every platform and the general way our craft is getting replaced for close to 0 dollars. This website was a huge instrument in kickstarting my career as a professional artist, it was an inspiring place were artists shared their art and where we could make friends with anyone in the world, in any industries. It was pretty much the place that paved the way as a social media website outside of Facebook, where you could search art through tags etc. Anyhow, Tumblr still has a place in my heart even if all artists moved away from it after the infamous nsfw ban (mostly to Instagram and twitter). And now we're all playing a game of whack-a-mole trying to figure out if the social media platform we're using is going to sell their user content to AI / deep learning (looking at you reddit, going into stocks). On the Tumblr side, Matt Mullenweg's interviews and thoughts on the platform shows he's down to use AI, and I guess it could help create posts faster but then again, you have to click through multiple menus to protect your art (and writing) from being scraped. It's really kind of sad to have to be on the defensive with posting art/writing online. It doesn't even reflect my personal philosophy on sharing content. I've always been a bit of a "punk" thinking if people want to bootleg my work, it's like free advertisement and a testament to people liking what I created, so I've never really watermarked anything and posted fairly high-res version of my work. I don't even think my art is big enough to warrant the defensiveness of glazing/nightshading it, but the thought of it going through a program to be grinded into a data mush to be only excreted out as the ghost of its former self is honestly sort of deadening.

Finally, the most defeating trend is the quantity of nonsense and low-quality content that's being fed to the internet, made a million times easier with the use of AI. I truly feel like we're living what Neil Postman saw happening over 40 years ago in "amusing ourselves to death"(the brightness of this man's mind is still unrivaled in my eyes).

I guess this is my big rant to tell y'all now I'm gonna be posting crunchy art because Nightshade and Glaze basically make your crispy art look like a low-res JPEG, and I feel like an idiot for doing it but I'm considering it an act of low effort resistance against data scraping. If I can help "poison" data scrapping by wasting 5 minutes of my life to spit out a crunchy jpeg before posting, listen, it's not such a bad price to pay. Anyhow check out my new sticker coming to my secret shop really soon, and how he looks before and after getting glazed haha....

I've been taking writing seriously for eight years. Here are eight lessons I've learned.

*Buckle up, this is going to be a long one*

As I squinted at my phone in the darkness, I stared at my Calendar. Blocks of red and pink were blocked into my schedule: do schoolwork, take a quick break, attend an online co-op class, sign up for a school workshop, finally read the first chapter of that thick textbook I bought.

Then, I looked above it all, the day of significance in magenta.

"Anniversary of Secrets." September 9th. The day I chose to take writing seriously. Between unfinished stories on loose-leaf paper, and untitled documents of characters on my desktop, writing had only been a spur-of-the-moment activity.

But then, September 9th came along. From visions of girls riding dragons and comments of classmates writing their own stories, I realized I could be like them. I could take writing as seriously as they did, spending more time on my stories than fixated on my favourite series.

In fact, writing became a fixation of my own. Over these eight years, I have watched countless videos, read a few books, and wrote hopefully around a couple hundred thousand words. As well, I have amassed a fair amount of writing advice. Here are eight of the lessons I learned over the years.

Lesson #1: Outline First, Write Later.

Ideas popped into my head like a game of whack-a-mole. They popped in and out whenever they pleased. I dreamed of cat-eared superheroes, of zodiac themed dystopias, of strange, American-style Isekais before I knew what that word meant.

My attempts to outline the story were inflated by my urge to write it. By the time I started writing my first official project, I decided to write the outline and FINISH the outline before jumping into the story.

Lesson #2: Embrace Diversity

If you've been on the Internet in literature or writing related circles, it's hard to avoid the topic of diversity, and for a good reason. Diverse situations and characters create new perspectives for readers and writers alike.

I learned to embrace diversity through a video made by Jenna Moreci:

After watching this, I thought more about my character's racial and ethnic backgrounds. Along with that, my characters became much more queer, and far more neurodivergent than I could've fathomed back in the day. Their backstories and family situations are more diverse as well: some of them were in foster care. Others came from big families.

The most important thing is to not do this offensively, and honour every culture you come across that's different than yours. Thankfully, there are plenty of resources online, such as Writing With Color(https://www.tumblr.com/writingwithcolor).

Lesson #3: Take Inspiration From Your Favourite Things.

My first story, Secrets, took direct inspiration from the books Harry Potter, Bone, Percy Jackson, Masterminds, and Eragon, respectively. But my second big project became a result of my Voltron obsession (which, assuming you're reading this on Tumblr, I'm sure you're familiar with).

The story formed as a space opera with alien planets I invented myself, and a human species who evolved to conditions on Kepler-22b. I'm not going to deny that I drew inspiration from the "Leakira and the Defenders Of Tomorrow" AU. Though this project is now its own being, I cannot deny where its origins came from.

Lesson #4: Do NaNoWriMo. Seriously.

First of all, I'd suggest staying away from the actual site. There have been numerous controversies, including demonstrating support of AI for creative works, and predatory behaviour on its forums. That doesn't mean we cannot still participate in writing a novel within a month.

Doing an unaffiliated one-month writing challenge will likely not help you get better at writing. Quality over quantity, after all. However, it will help to create a writing habit, and force you to think of unorthodox situations where you could write words… like, on the bus, in a bathroom stall, or in a waiting room.

Lesson #5: This is not going to be a career. Not for a while.

I was a 17-year-old, frothing at the mouth, obsessed with what my hands could produce at the click of keys. I wanted this to be my career. Badly.

However, college loomed around the corner, and I could not fathom spending so much money to learn creative writing in university, when it would have so little pay-off later down the line. Plus, I knew the field was a competitive one, and boy, I was not ready to compete.

If you want writing to become a career one day, go for it. Work hard on your writing. Focus on it like a bird focuses on looking for its worm. Keep in mind, however, whether the pay-off will be worth it for you.

For example, if you are willing to compete and set yourself apart, it would be beneficial to study English, Creative Writing, or Journalism at a university. You could become a copyeditor, a journalist, or a teacher, with some extra learning. However, what if becoming an author feels unstable? You could consider a career in a transferrable field such as office administration, library technician, marketing, psychology, or accounting.

Lesson #6: Fanfiction is good.

When I got into the game Terraria, I spent many hours traversing the right side of my world and building cube-shaped houses, and far too many hours before I thought I was powerful enough to fight the Eye Of Cthulhu. That aside, I started writing fanfiction inspired by the franchise.

Surely, there’s not much canon material regarding the NPCs whose names change when they get killed. So, I made my own. I elaborated on characters that had pre-existing relationships and made up my own where there weren’t any. It was a brilliant practice in writing when none of my other ideas seemed appealing.

I have since finished said fanfiction, but I still write about certain fandoms from time to time. It helps to have an outlet for creative ideas that would not fit your other stories.

Lesson #7: Don’t Fear The Critiquer

Reading my works aloud startled me to the bone. Thankfully, my friend clarified that this writing club gave good critique on his own worldbuilding. So, I showed up, and oh, am I ever so thankful I showed up, because it has, quite literally, changed the way I see writing.

Reading out my writing to others has made me better at sharing, and at accepting critique. I received a lot of praise, and I also realized a lot of mistakes. Most of all, I learned not to fear what people thought of what I wrote: chances are they’d like at least part of it.

Lesson #8: Every little bit counts.

After many years of taking it slow, life started to get busy again. Life became more cluttered, and I fought to balance my classes with any extracurriculars I may have had, with therapy appointments and going to the doctor’s to sort out health shenanigans, with the full time summer job I had, and with nurturing my relationships.

If you had a hard time reading that sentence, that’s what my life has been like for the past year or so. Busy, cluttered, hard to organize, but still manageable in small chunks. This is what writing while busy should look like. Little bits and pieces of writing, whether it be in a chapter or short stories.

The Big Conclusion

Plot twist: These eight lessons I learned were relevant to each of my eight years spent learning the craft. I spent them embracing the craft, learning to make good settings, and understanding how to create interesting plots. At the same time, I have yet to self-publish any fiction other than a short story.

Still, I’m happy with the progress I’ve made in these past 8 years. It’s been a long journey, but with every year, I learn so much more.

If you’re looking for where to start, this is where you should: whether it’s writing down that random idea that’s been sitting in your head, or scribbling down a drabble about the rain outside, just take one first step.

Your take on Kakao going after Tachiyomi?

Briefly mentioned it here before, but honestly: it sucks.

They went for an easier target (than the pirate sites that actually host manwha), they threaten legal action (which obviously will result in complying by Tachiyomi devs even though Kakao has no case) and spread a bunch of misinformation for purpose of scaremongering.

My take on piracy in general is that it happens when getting your product legally is significantly more difficult than getting it illegally. As a result you can either make the former easier, or make the latter more difficult. Kakao is going for the latter.

In the end all of this will achieve nothing in long-term perspective except making initial setup of Tachiyomi slightly harder (you will have to add extension repository separately), and/or make Tachiyomi harder to find on the Internet (no big deal, Tachiyomi's existence was already spread through word of mouth), and the usual pirate whack-a-mole will go on.

No one ever tells you chronic health conditions flock together like particularly shitty birds.

Sometimes one will be set off by the meds of another. Sometimes the way you move to accommodate one condition will flare up or even create a new problem altogether. Sometimes they’re just bros - inviting every one of their crappy friends to the BBQ.

Often, it’s like playing whack-a-mole with symptoms - trying to prioritise the worst ones while knowing there’s every chance one of the smaller issues is the key to fixing the one you’re currently focused on. But you can’t approach things holistically because every specialist is… well, a specialist and trying to find a GP who’s a) available b) accessible c) competent and d) not burnt out is like stumbling upon a unicorn.

(And this isn’t even taking the horrific expense of all this into account.)

Anyway, this has been your random text post from a human on the internet who can’t sleep because yet ANOTHER ovarian cyst just burst inside her.

Last month, after the release of DALL-E 3, there were a whole bunch of stories about how the AI was pretty good at creating pictures of Kirby doing 9/11. And soon after, there was another news cycle about 4chan users figuring out how to make racist Pixar movie posters. Except, all of those stories could have been written — and were actually — about Photoshop on Reddit 15 years ago. That’s because all of this, everything from Biden’s AI executive order to the new mealy-mouthed platform policies to the endless stories asking us to pretend to be scandalized over pictures of Kirby flying United 93 are based on the same incorrect assumption that generative AI is unique in any way.

There’s an old journalism joke that reporters cover every new election according to the rules of the previous one. But I think the tech press does the same thing. Which explains why most of the stories you read about AI right now use the same whack-a-mole content cop strategy most news outlets and research groups spent the 2010s using to cover platforms like Facebook or Twitter. Now they’re breathlessly writing up every instance of an AI producing A Forbidden Image. And what’s worse is this attitude helps tech companies continue to undermine labor and consolidate lobbying power, allows politicians to keep dragging their feet on writing real legislation for the internet, and provides fantastic cover for online platforms that still don’t know how to moderate themselves. I have yet to see anything produced by generative AI you couldn’t do with Photoshop or After Effects or, like, Wikipedia. And if everyone stopped being ridiculous for five minutes, we’d all realize that this tech hasn’t introduced a single new problem. We still just have same old ones we refuse to deal with!

And so, my big hot AI take here is that there’s actually nothing new to moderate. I mean, my god, OpenAI is literally using the same Africa-based third-party moderation contractors that Meta and Google use. It’s all just the same stuff with a new Sci-Fi coat of paint.

ngl the serial kiss art thief/reposter/tickle person is so baffling to me. I blocked them ages ago and when they started putting bathroom related captions. No clue if they ever got to my art but I don’t even think I could get that mad, I’m just too baffled by how detached from everything they seem to be. It’s so hard to tell if it’s a language barrier thing, major mental disabilities, some kind of bot thing, some combo of those things, or something out of left field. Some of their language is so immature and they sometimes almost come off as some kid on the internet unsupervised, but then they also use some decidedly dated internet terms/mannerisms (lulz).

They’re so widely disliked I don’t even care if they steal from me because I don’t think anyone’s even following them to find new kiss work and they’re just so transparently posting crap they found on google images (often VERY poorly screenshotted). I’m just so damn curious about WHAT their deal is because I haven’t seen people like that since deviantart.

edit: and I guess they might have some alt blog where they actually seem to have put out coherent sentences???? The links between them seem tenuous but if true, this raises more questions than answers. It was also one-word replies and XD and stuff on reddit/tumblr but there’s actual coherent responses on that account and vastly more self-awareness. I have a SIGNIFICANTLY lower opinion of them if that’s true, since it’s clear that they shouldn’t be so blinding stupid to dump uncredited art and blatant fetish captions everywhere… just wtf was that supposed to be some social experiment??

another edit: seems like it was just a dubious link between them sharing a pretty generic online name. So it’s back to a big ol’ ??? Unless there’s any harder links I’ll just say that deplatforming and playing “report for art theft” whack a mole with future alts seems like the only way to actually stop them.

How are we all feeling about the TikTok ban?

On one hand, as an Open Internet advocate, I'm against banning any type of media. If it's bad and damaging, expose it for what it is, offer a healthier alternative, but let it be. Can't ban them all, one goes down, another rises up. This game of Whack-A-Mole is a waste of time and resources. The Internet was at its best when the overreach was the lowest.

On the other hand, TikTok is indeed the shadiest social media platform out there. Its developers literally got a memo to shape the algorithm so that it pushes content with people who appear anything short of rich and beautiful to the bottom. It promotes ragebait, leaving people in a worse mental state than before using it. It promotes extremism. It's uber glitchy, and not for the user's benefit. Everybody who starts creating there inevitably succumbs to clout chasing. I created my first ever TikTok account a couple months ago, because hubby found a promotion that we'd both get some money in TikTok Shop if I use his referral link to create a new account. I created it - no money, the app kept throwing an error. So we got nothing out of it, but TikTok got an account out of me. I haven't watched a single video on that account - if I need to see a video on TikTok, I do it on the browser, logged out.

So I didn't like TikTok… and I didn't use it. I voted with my presence on that platform, just like we all do by being here on Tumblr.

From my observation, TikTok these days is just a tryhard central tbh. If people want to join in and be yet another tryhard, let them have their fun. If they lose their brainrot reel on TikTok, they'll look for their fix of brainrot on other platforms, so you won't get a less brainwashed nation by banning it.

Oh and the "data stored in China" argument, like Mutahar of SomeOrdinaryGaming pointed out, is uber hypocritical - ByteDance does not treat our data any worse than Meta (Facebook) or Alphabet (Google), the only difference is that it's stored on the American soil. So it's pretty much an "it's okay only when we do it" argument.

I say keep the TikTok online and let us vote with our presence on the social media platform of our choice.

Life update, being in LA right now suuuucks! Woke up to this situation at 6:55am so...you hate to see that. Our internet has been out since last night. We are .8mi from an evacuation warning zone (level 2 aka pack a bag and pay attention) for the Eaton Fire but luckily so far that has stayed static for most of the day. The Santa Anas are mellowing out so hopefully that will make it easier for the firefighters to get this shit contained without constantly playing whack-a-mole with the whimsical little nightmare embers desperately trying to make spot fires happen. This has been and still is terrifying and horrible. On Friday afternoon I'm supposed to drive to my grandmother's house for her birthday so let's hope nothing gets sparky between here and Fresno. Jesus tapdancing Christ, man. Maybe 2026 will be my year?

I am a 36 yo white male. This makes me the "key demographic" among those selling things like weight loss equipment, penis enlargement supplements, and onlyfans subscriptions. You guys should seeeee some of the targeted ads I get.

Anyways, I have an ethical question about online sex work.

See, because I fit the stereotype of a guy who spends all his disposable income on porn, I often get friend requests on various socials from young attractive women looking for subscribers.

The thing is, no matter how hot the girl is, or how nice her sales pitch goes, I will not be doing that. And even if I wanted to, I share a bank account with my wife, and I am pretty sure she wouldn't believe me if I told her I was buying cooling units from a specialized online wholesaler.

But I do like talking to people. That little red notification on Snapchat is a dopamine hit that I crave.

Is it wrong if me to string them along with the polite conversation of their cold call? Am I wasting their time? Or do they enjoy talking to someone who says something other than "you have great tits! Wanna see my cock?"

As I have mentioned before, I really do enjoy accepting every friend request I get and then reporting bots. It's like internet whack-a-mole. But occasionally I get a real live person, and I am never really sure what to do about that...

very amused by this person on their laptop in the uni library fighting for their life playing popup whack-a-mole while trying to watch a movie on one of those shitty pirate streaming sites. do people really live like that? rawdogging the internet without ublock?
