Hi #PortfolioDay!

@1sagas1 @72gilamonsters @Joeywcoleygame @SirChubstamania @Clarknova1 @AfroHyena @aubetony @ZakugaMignon It’s not just about differentiating. I have no warmth or regard towards the uniqueness of different algorithms bc they have no real intentions or point of view. It’s just a machine.

@aubetony @72gilamonsters @1sagas1 @Joeywcoleygame @SirChubstamania @Clarknova1 @AfroHyena @ZakugaMignon I mean if artists are actually being PAID and credited to train an algorithm and work with AI I have no issues with that.

@1sagas1 @72gilamonsters @Joeywcoleygame @SirChubstamania @Clarknova1 @AfroHyena @aubetony @ZakugaMignon I learned to draw by looking at art made by other ppl but we are all unique, so our art is still going to carry our own identity and unique mannerisms. My peers often look at my work and say “I can tell Beth made that.” But AI doesn’t have an identity.

@Joeywcoleygame @72gilamonsters @SirChubstamania @Clarknova1 @AfroHyena @aubetony @ZakugaMignon I understand that AI “learns” But it’s still a tool/machine and not a person. So what are we using this tool for, and is it actually ethical?

@criticalurban If you spend any considerable time in a place where trains, trams and buses can take you wherever you want/need to go in a reliable manner, then you'll understand what car dependency is.

cw: pregnancy loss

I live in Alabama, a state with a total abortion ban, and was so overjoyed when I found out I was pregnant last month. I’ve been doing everything right. Stopped caffeine, took my prenatal vitamins, followed every rec. But I started bleeding on Tuesday.🧵

@Da_Chief @bittergertrude @CaseyRoo_ People's reasons for boycotting HP are completely unsustainable and politically ineffective. Ppl have admitted that they're using the game as a litmus test to see if they're a "real ally." 🙄 A real ally would care about things that are effective. Boycotts don't work.

@keffals I don't understand the ppl who are like "why can't you just play another game?" I thought the point was to use JKR's IP against her as a form of protest. Imagine the optics of "Hasanabi charity streams HL, raises $$$ for trans charities while JRK screes."

[Beth Mackenzie (she/her) @ButterscotchwM]

@Sol_Diablo_ @ThatCmonster The products people choose to turn into a morality litmus test is really arbitrary. Y not condemn ppl who buy coca cola? Nestle? Literally everything you buy is going into the bank accounts of evil ppl, and with a huge franchise like HP there's no material gain from a boycott.

[Beth Mackenzie (she/her) @ButterscotchwM]

@Kaxbeokay Nice. Maybe one of these days I'll also be comfortable enough to work out in just yoga pants and a sports brar!

@Kaxbeokay LOVE the crop hoodie, 10/10

@andicdayo Things I wear for skiing from top to bottom: Helmet, ski goggles, gator, windbreaker, long underwear, snow gloves, snow pants (but they also have those ski overalls if you prefer), long ski boot socks. Everyone else's advice here is good too.
