it is so jarring and weird when a fantasy book is like “ok let’s go around the circle and have each character talk about which lgbt umbrella category they identify with” like ok your fantasy world doesn’t have to be feudal europe but can it not be 2023 twitter please

If you are, in fact, in ancient China, the words you are looking for are:

Mojing 磨镜 if you are a commoner. It literally translates to “mirror polisher”, because the act of rubbing a cloth over a copper mirror was a metaphor for lesbian sex. Note that this term is used to describe a relationship between two women, rather than the sexual orientation of an individual.

Duishi 对食 if you are a royal woman or maid living in the royal palace. Originating in the Han dynasty, this term literally translates to “eating together”, which is another metaphor for lesbian sex (of a different variety from the one described above 👀). This term is, again, used to describe a type of relationship, not an individual’s orientation. In the royal palace, this kind of relationship was often between a high ranking woman and a low ranking woman, and was frowned upon due to the difference in rank.

For example, during the Han dynasty, Emperor Wu’s empress consort Chen had an affair with a woman named Chu Fu, who dressed like a man and slept with the empress “like husband and wife.” When the affair was discovered, Chu Fu was accused of witchcraft and executed, and the empress was stripped of her title and banished.

So yeah, if you are in ancient China, you can totally say “I prefer to polish mirrors and share my meals with women, if you catch my drift…” 👀👀👀

no way...

kittens look so fucking funny mid-jump dude

Please be aware that the "opt-out" choice is just a way to try to appease people. But Tumblr has not been transparent about when has data been sold and shared with AI companies, and there are sources that confirm that data has already been shared before the toggle was even provided to users.

Also, it seems to include data they should not have been able to give under any circumstance, including that of deactivated blogs, private messages and conversations, stuff from private blogs, and so on.

Do not believe that "AI companies will honor the "opt-out request retroactively". Once they've got their hands on your data (and they have), they won't be "honoring" an opt-out option retroactively. There is no way to confirm or deny what data do they have: The fact they are completely opaque on what do they currently "own" and have, means that they can do whatever they want with it. How can you prove they have your data if they don't give everyone free access to see what they've stolen already?

So, yeah, opt out of data sharing, but be aware that this isn't stopping anyone from taking your data. They already have been taking it, before you were given that option. Go and go to Tumblr's Suppport and leave your Feedback on this (politely, but firmly- not everyone in the company is responsible for this.)

Finally: Opt out is not good under any circumstance. Deactivated people can't opt out. People who have lost their passwords can't opt out. People who can't access internet or computers can't opt out. People who had their content reposted can't opt out. Dead people can't opt out. When DeviantArt released their AI image generator, saying that it wasn't trained on people who didn't consent to it, it was proven it could easily replicate the styles of people who had passed away, as seen here. So, yeah. AI companies cannot be trusted to have any sort of respect for people's data and content, because this entire thing is just a data laundering scheme.

Please do reblog for awareness.

Tumblr is doing some stupid AI shit so go to blog settings > Visibility > Prevent third-party sharing.

There was a Senshi’s Journal booklet with one of the Japanese manga volumes that showed Senshi’s POV on events up to chapter 51. An anonymous person posted raw scans and translation on a forum. So I figured I’d make a scanlation.

(I tried to translate/romanize some parts that weren’t in the translation, but I’m not exactly great at it).
