A key thing about corporate use of genAI is that it removes all the friction involved between the executives' weird fetish shit and inner thoughts, and public display
It does to corporations what alcohol does to a bigot.
Hard to not go fucking insane in a world where they behave like fiction can hurt you while literally bombing schools. Hope all of these fascist fucks take a very long walk off of a very short pier.
thinking about the time Hayao Miyazaki bodied Pete Docter and Pixar
The Substar TOS looks extremely similar to Patreon's now. Call your reps or we will lose everything
Tell them to stop the payment processor power grab, tell them to vote no on child online safety bills/ID verification. We need everyone
It’s not my business what you do! If you feel badly, you go live with it. You can’t pretend you care about a community and then also burden them with absolving your guilt in materially supporting their oppressors. It’s exhausting! Don’t make your feelings my problem!

My wife told me that people not consuming a consistent diet of literature is why they struggle with empathy & putting themselves in the shoes of others & now I see it in everything.
Nothing surprising about this guy beating his chest & proudly proclaiming that he doesn’t read though.
No shit man.
Everyone who tried to draw around me and started drawing LOVED it at the beginning because of their QUICK IMPROVEMENT. Then quit when they hit The Wall™️.
But it's when you hit The Wall™️ that you NEED to push through with practice!! And you gotta do it for yourself, because it's ALWAYS worth it! 😤

The court ruled that a work must have a human creator in order to qualify for copyright.

Every day the fucking news has me like this
We literally know now that anti-trans legislation was pushed by a pedophile ring to allow a pedophile ring to serve a pedophile ring’s interests, and legislators have decided the best course of action is to keep doing what the pedophile ring wants.

I know it’s difficult right now, but I insist that you seek and enjoy beautiful things, even if it seems frivolous or irresponsible in the face of overwhelming horror. I want you to feed yourself artistically, spiritually, and literally, because you can’t Do The Work when you’re starving.

i have to believe that, at the end of the day, craft will save us. That our attention-spans can and will make time for it, both to slow down and make the thing you're proud of and for the person who encounters it and stops to soak it in. It's the only thing they can't take from us.
Burn it down.
If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.

This is what I need cis folks to understand.
It's been a decade.
Imagine living TEN FUCKING YEARS watching as a blatant, artificial campaign to erase your personhood, your identity and your safety chugs along, increasing in power every single day, and most people don't care or dismiss it
They're hoping we'll forget about this in a few months and that we'll resubscribe to Nitro so they can get back their funding for this nonsense. Cancel yours and do not forget about this.
If you're doing callout posts about artists creating fictional taboo content, you may not consider yourself a fascist, but you are one. You are their stupid tool at the bare minimum. The good news is you can stop doing that at any time
Oops. Turns out Persona, Discord’s age-verification service, was secretly screening selfies against government watchlists AND accessible by the feds. It's backed by Peter Thiel.
“The state wants to see everything. The corporations want to see everything. And they've learned to work together.”
IT HASN'T EVEN BEEN A WEEK!
News you can use, from the @wired.com security team (who are the best in the biz).
They asked technologists, activists, aid groups, and cybersecurity experts for guidance on how to organize and collaborate in an age of surveillance. Here’s the result:

the goal is everything being hosted Online, where people have to pay a fee to do anything, pure rent seeking all the way down
if that means they have to buy all the hard drives and video cards and ram on earth, then so be it
a fucking pedophile sexually abused nearly every prospective and actual Olympian gymnast for over two decades, and the political discourse is hyper-fixated on the hypothetical unfairness of trans girls competing with cis girls
