What is this about the tumblr staff wanting to sell art data to midjourney?
An ex-colleague of mine mentioned yesterday that there may be contacts between Automattic and midjourney in that direction, but nothing is public yet and I don't have any more info. They probably won't have anything specific to share either, since they left the company weeks ago too. That being said:
I have no reason to doubt my ex-coworker word, they are a trustworthy person.
Tumblr's CEO has been absurdly enthusiastic (comically, even) about AI, and is a big fan of LLMs and 'AI' companies.
A deal with midjourney could solve tumblr financial issues (not the same company, but openAi is paying up to 5 million/year to news companies to use their content as training data... tumblr generates several orders of magnitude more content than any newspaper or any media company and it only would need a 20 to 30 million per year deal to be profitable)
So I don't have any extra info yet, but I'm keeping my ears open.
understimulation was never an issue for me growing up because i could visit the beach and get my hands and feet and arms and legs all scraped up by sand and rocks and then take a dip in the salt water and feel it in every open wound on my body

hey you know it’s possible to include two spirits in the lgbt community who wish to be included while not including those who don’t want to be right?
and that no person in our community speaks for all of us? that not all of us hold the same view about being considered lgbt?
because i’m getting really tired of people continually telling everyone to not include us at all and encouraging people to remove the little amount of positivity that exists, and even telling us to stop including ourselves
include us who want to be included, dont include those that don’t want to be, and don’t say that none of us can be included because some people prefer not to be when no single person speaks for us all
