Poor guy was drowning in debt and terminally ill, and this was the best way to secure his kids education.

Now they talk of him as a fool.

Sorry, I meant not to feed them but shelter or adoption is always the best. It does seem very cold how I put it.

Wild cats are very rough on local ecosystems and I think it’s generally recommended not to help them in any shape or form.

It’s a shame but it seems most companies only pretended to cut ties.

I used to do this constantly but I had to break myself out of the habit. On long drives, I’d forget I would have passengers and blurt out half a sentence before realizing.

It also led my step mother to try and convince my dad I was schizophrenic at the time since I would do it in the house as well when I thought no one was around.

Mildly annoying since it was just an easy way to think things through, I never saw it as a bad habit.

They are recording all the lines again with someone else according to the article.

I misspoke in my first comment. It’s vague on if copyrights are shared but it does explicitly say it gains ownership.

In any case, this issue has been brought up and they haven’t fixed it. Every other platforms makes it very clear who has ownership of what. There’s too much room for abuse and its either a grift or incompetence and with all the other problems with the platform, it’s not a good look.

Federated platforms are popping up for this kind of thing, better to wait imo.

This is really the best option. It’s incredibly easy these days and let’s them incorporate an e-shop later.

Although a lot of these platforms are about getting exposure as well.

Their TOS isnt very long, a user linked it above.

Here’s the abridged part that is of interest:

(Everything on the website including user generated content) are copyrighted unless otherwise noted and are the property of Cara and/or the individual artist

are copyrighted unless otherwise noted and are the property of Cara and/or the individual artist

The hateboner is justified. For all it’s faults, instagram explicitly says it doesn’t own any of the pictures and only has a license to display which the user can revoke at anytime.

Deviant art has this in it’s TOS:

DeviantArt does not claim ownership rights in your works or other materials posted by you to DeviantArt (Your Content).

It might be due to plain incompetence and not malice but their TOS lets them do a lot more than most platforms.
