A digital poster in the style of a World War II propaganda piece. Isolaed on a yellow background, a normal, squarish, 20-something guy with glasses is sitting working on a laptop. A ghostly figure of Hitler has his arm around the guy and is grinning and shaking a fist triumphantly looking at the laptop screen. On the lid of the laptop where an apple might otherwise be is an openAI logo, bright green, and dripping green ooze down the lid. Text on the poster, in combinations of sans-serif type and brush script reads: Using Generative AI? You’re prompting with Hitler! GenAI is a Fascist Project! Try using your brain instead Don’t surrender your creativity to the tech billionaire’s control

Nearly every headline and quote I read about the US government these days just reminds of a Marx brothers quote "who you gonna believe me or your own lying eyes"

Today's old woman yelling at clouds:

I miss magazines. I miss flipping through film mags and reading about movies coming out. I miss Playstation demo discs. I miss ephemeral stories that were more than just a click-bait headline. I miss when people could make a career out of that.

Or people are pushing through without supports, ignoring their needs, burning out, accumulating more and more wear and tear on their bodies that show up as chronic health issues?

Until one day 💥

Newgrounds' approach to verifying age is interesting and transparent.

Still waiting for a morning where I'm not thinking about you. Just hope you're doing well and feeling okay.

There's a direct line from "no kink at Pride" and "no sex in movies and books unless it Serves The Plot" to payment processors feeling completely empowered to censor art globally
