While defending the luddite argument in Discord, I stumbled into this IMO succinct explanation for opposing generative AI: At every step in the process, it impoverishes us.

Currently at: — only buy tech too old to have AI built in — painstakingly disable AI every time they add it to something that used to work perfectly well — if it can't be switched off, abandon the platform or tool — if there are no good alternatives, avoid the AI parts — patiently wait for the crash

Since Halloween stuff is coming out, a plea to really *look* at those seasonal decorations because big stores like Michael’s and Marshall’s are using AI for their seasonal decor and it sucks and you should not buy it.

everything is on fire, particularly itch at the moment, but it's #DisabilityPride (and i'm tired lol) and there are two bundles by queer disabled authors happening right now. here's the one i'm part of 🌈📚 #booksky itch.io/b/3173/disab...

There's just something so magical about listening to my current hyperfixation artist on my new-to-me old CD player

sometimes I feel like a dinosaur, cause no one looks anything up anymore 🦕

If your books were de-indexed, on itch and still available for purchase, drop direct links below and I’ll share them!

not only are these new guidelines incredibly broad, but there's no wiggle room to appeal. itch can and will steal creators' money with no accessible form of recourse.

This, and also, Aromantic ≠ doesn't want romance Aromantic in fact = experience little/no romantic ATTRACTION You can be aro and desire relationships. You can be aro and desire intimacy. You can also be aro and desire neither.

PSA, because some how folk still don't understand: Asexual ≠ doesn't want sex. Asexual in fact = experiences little/no sexual ATTRACTION You can be ace and desire relationships. You can be ace and desire intimacy. You can also be ace and desire neither That is all

Canadians, if you feel safe doing so, please contact the Canadian Centre for Child Protection and Canadian Heritage to express concern over their role as observers of Global Online Safety Regulators Network (GOSRN). (1/4)

This is also a sexual education issue. Remember when tumblr banned “female presenting nipples”. It is our human right to learn about the human body through consensual art and entertainment. A lack of education makes it easy to prey on people.
