Hey everyone!
I know a lot of people have been posting their Lensa/other AI portraits lately. I would like to encourage you not to do so or, better yet, not to use the service. These AI seem like harmless fun but they are predatory and intend to replace artists. (1/9)
Now that I have more spoons: Elliot Gindi is abhorrent. The abuse that he inflicted upon his victims is unforgivable. I am absolutely disgusted with him and anyone trying to defend him.
I wish nothing but peace for the victims.
I don’t give a shit about any “apology”, though
This is my favorite image from Yoimiya’s character teaser 🎇
When we were recording the teaser there was confusion about “what she was eating”. So, I let them know that she’s actually building a firework!
An ex-boyfriend of mine would degrade me, gaslight me, and would invite me over just to ignore me. I’d come over and he’d stay silent while he played Demons Souls.
Anyways, guess who voices a boss in the remaster of that very game?
Try and ignore me now✨
I just got the okay ✨👀🚄
I’m happy to announce that you can hear me as Xueyi in
#HonkaiStarRail
Thank you so much to
@honkaistarrail
and Hoyoverse for having me and to
@newphilms
for your direction! I’m so thrilled to be a part of this beautiful game ✨
She’s finally here!
It’s an absolute honor to be

As a former pyro technician (MiHoYo and the director had no idea about that until after I was cast), this role means a lot to me. Good luck with your summons, travelers 🎇
ANY of you who are defending this absolute monster can take it up with me. These victims, most of whom are actual, literal children, are more brave than you will ever be.
They do not need to “let it go”. If you have a problem with them, leave them alone and take it up with me.
I just realized that me,
@NazeehTarsha
,
@kixee
, and Alhaitham all have the same birthday (February 11th)
This is genuinely so cute and if anyone out there can draw the four of us celebrating our birthday together I would cry tears of rainbows and sunshine
if the victim reads this, thank you for doing such a brave thing by coming forward. I’m so sorry for how you were treated. Do not give up on your dreams. Your sexuality is valid.
To Elliot: I would say rot in hell, but even that’s too good for you, you piece of shit

for helping make this happen.
If you want to see double Yoimiya at a convention near you, make sure to request us! You can tag conventions in the comments!
I’m so goddamn sick of the excuse of “sudden fame” for these predators.
A lot of followers doesn’t make you a predator. You were just a predator waiting for a lot of followers. This is ESPECIALLY obvious since he admits he went after a specific victim BECAUSE they were a fan
Hey guys, I know the yearbook trend is fun but SAG is currently fighting really hard to get us protected from AI. I hate to rain on the parade, but it’s just something to be cognizant of in this really weird time.
PSA:
@LilyPichu
is a great voice actress and she got the role of Sayu because she auditioned for it and was the best person for the role. Lily is wonderful in Genshin. She brings so much life and charm to Sayu! Please be cool to her
@JennyYokobori
Yep, thats official, was a yoimiya fan, but now that you said that, im unfollowing you, and im no longer gonna build my yoimiya, congrats, you lost your
#1
fan
I see the appeal, it’s cheap and fast and seems harmless. But, these AI are actively hurting real artists who have actually worked to be as good as they are. Real art shouldn’t be cheap or fast because art is born from passion and dedication. (3/9)
them: hello! I was not nice to you in middle/high school.
me: yes, correct.
them: would you like to be friends now?
me: call me crazy but, I’m gonna pass
Admittedly, I got curious and tried it out and immediately regretted doing so. Looking at the results made me feel really sad because I could see that the images were born from the thousands and thousands of hours of practice of real artists. (2/9)
A reminder that six Asian women were killed two days ago and authorities are still trying to say it’s not racially motivated. An elderly Asian woman was attacked in San Francisco YESTERDAY. I’ve had Asian friends who have had people try to HIT THEM WITH A CAR.
Stay outraged
If you watch anime, listen to K-Pop, read manga, enjoy Asian food, and especially if you use an Asian name when it’s not your birth name: this affects you and you need to speak out. Asians are not just objects responsible for entertaining you. We need your help.
bit of Jenny lore:
my dad was a westaboo.
He was born and raised in Japan, lived there until he was in his forties or so. But, he was FERAL for the Old West. You haven’t lived until you hear the “Bonanza” theme song being screamed in a thick Japanese accent.
These AI steal examples of art that were born from years of practice and expensive classes. Artists deserve more than to feel like they’re being discarded for some soulless robot. (4/9)

Dating is so embarrassing. Guys will ask me, “What do you like to do in your free time?”
My hobby is naps. I fall into a mini coma and float away from this mortal realm for fun. But, I guess for the sake of this conversation: “video games”
There are countless artists out there who are just trying to make ends meet and deserve to feel valued. Please don’t forget about the humans behind all the beautiful art we see daily on this bird app. (5/9)
These AI aren’t harmless. They are predatory and their art will always fall short of something drawn by someone who has dedicated themselves to honing their craft. Artists are not replaceable and this new wave of automated art is really troubling. (7/9)
Thank you all so much for your lovely response to Yoimiya and Klee’s quest in Genshin ✨ It’s no exaggeration to say having these two meet was a dream come true. When me and
@iampoonambasu
found out we were squealing with delight. 🔥🎇🧨
Erica Lindbeck is a goddamn treasure of a human being. She’s kind, empathetic, hilarious, and absolutely wonderful.
Erica didn’t want something that’s hers to be used without her permission. Take a literal second to try and understand consent.
@JennyYokobori
...i thought you were making a fist and you were aiming to punch us. 😥
Anyway, you look heckin' cute. That color looks really good on you
That being said, I fully intend to commission real artists and to showcase the portraits I get from them. Real artists can never be replaced. I want to apologize and take accountability for my lapse in judgment. Support real artists. (9/9)
I used to work with these kinds of explosives all the time when I would work at The Hollywood Bowl! I think it’s incredible that I get to combine two of my passions by playing Yoimiya 🎇✨
And that’s been your firework lesson from this former pyro technician/ voice actress!
I know it’s easy to get caught up in trends, but please take a moment to reflect of the ramifications of this technology and the emotional impact it has on artists we know and love. (6/9)
