Learned earlier today that Dragoneer, one of the people who founded Furaffinity, has passed away after having just undergone a biopsy, he had been tweeting a lot lately about how he's been pushed around by doctors and such with delays and more as he was really ill... I extend my condolences to his family and friends, we are all deeply saddened by his passing and he will be missed by us all.

Right, I'm gonna need to vent for a bit here regarding a lot of crap I and many others have been seeing on Deviantart and other websites, that being A/I generated images. The websites are getting absolutely flooded by these images, with some profiles having several thousands of these in their galleries, and I absolutely HATE it. You can't do searches on anything these days without getting results that put these A/I generated images as the top results, which is extremely detrimental for actual artists that are trying to find references for something they're planning on drawing, not to mention the fact that these images look so generic, they all look the same and pretty much all the time have glaring issues such as weird limbs, eyes and more. Then there's also the fact that there are those who take money for this kind of nonsense, which is just bloody appalling in my opinion as those images were done by an algorithm and not an actual person. This isn't art at all in my opinion, actual

And so 2023 has come to an end, happy new year! Let's hope this one will be better.
