Putting flock cameras on every corner, building data centers in every community, keep trying to require identity verification to use the internet.
Probably nothing.
While the US is bombing Tehran and Trump is threatening to “decimate all areas of Iran with 1,000 missiles,” Iran is delivering 160 tons of humanitarian aid to Venezuela. It’s pretty clear which country is the terrorist state.
Get this shit off my timeline and buy some books. They’ve stopped printing new ones, and soon Palantir will be able to zap the PDFs off your Google Drive. Freak the fuck out and buy books right now.
To be disabled is to grieve. It’s grieving the body you’ll never have, it’s grieving the loss of capabilities over time, it’s grieving the abandonment from society as a whole, it’s grieving the lack of accessibility and inclusion. Grief is all encompassing if you’re disabled.
What’s becoming clearer to me about people using AI for creative endeavors is that they want the cultural influence without the work. They want someone to say to them “your work changed my life” without earning it, which is horrifying in its soullessness.
people keep saying they started reading books to battle their phone addiction and it's like. i already read a ton AND have a phone addiction am i just that special

i am so fucking tired of seeing people use generative ai to make a cover or art for their fanfics !!!!! get on canva or picsart or don’t fucking worry about it !!!! get off genai!!!!
