Staying Here and Addressing the AI!
First off, I know about the recent announcements by this site regarding the AI... issue, I guess you could call it. And let me just say that, while I am disappointed by these developments, I am not going anywhere. Also, sometime after that, DA made this announcement: Now that's cool and all, but... well, what I'm about to say on this, as well as the whole AI thing in general, might be a bit more... salty than usual, but it has to be said. I've read the comments, both on here and elsewhere, and people are so damn quick to "dElEtE eVeRyThInG" and "jUmP sHiP" because of this. To be fair, DA dabbling in AI has rubbed people the wrong way. And I've been here long enough to know that DA doing questionable stuff and people having a kneejerk reaction to it isn't new, and it hasn't been new for a long, long, LONG time. I honestly think the AI issue seems to be more complicated than it is currently. I think that, while it is fun to play with, it shouldn't take the place of real, hand-drawn
MY DISCORD GOT HACKED (UPDATE: New Discord Acct.!)
UPDATE 2: Got my new Discord account set up! If you want me to add you, DM me. UPDATE: And I just deleted my Discord account. I'm going to uninstall and reinstall just to be sure. I'll sign up again, and if you want me to add you send a note. I was hacked on Discord! Here's what's going on: https://twitter.com/DizzyMilki/status/1542706191658356736 Basically, if you click on that invitation AND scan the verification QR code (something I stupidly did), the hackers will get access to all your info, send that invitation to people on your friendslist AND block them. I'm trying to get things sorted out right now, but it looks like I might have to start a new Discord account, which sucks... but at this point it seems like the most realistic option at this time.
2021 No! 2022 Go!
Well, out with 2021! It's been one hell of a year, with many ups and downs for everyone. I mean, with a lot going on in recent times, here's hoping things are looking up for 2022! May you have a wonderful New Year!
MD on DA - After 17 Years!
On this day 17 years ago I signed up on Deviantart, and over the years this site has seen a lot of changes. The most recent major change (a really big site update known as Eclipse) has been proven quite controversial, controversial enough to make quite a few people straight up leave! Understandable, as the site layout prior to Eclipse had endured for the longest time, and was beloved by all. Even more than 18 months after that change, there are some that are still mad about it. As for me, I'm still here. Not as much as I used to (this was long before Eclipse... well, eclipsed), but I started here, and I'm going to stay here, good or bad. However, these days I mostly hang out on Twitter, and I also post on FurAffinity and occasionally on Pixiv and Tumblr.

Very nice job on your Inktober 2015 challenge rampage!!
How it went for me... Some days went quite well, and some were stressful ones XD some had to be done quickly because of the limited time. But it sure was fun!
I completed every single day without a day missed, and I am quite happy with the result on most of my submissions.
Cheers, my friend MD!
