I get why there’s a sentiment of “just DO the thing even if it’s bad!” But I feel like some people forget that it’s not that simple for some people. Art and writing feel more like chores than interests nowadays, and I constantly equate my skill level with my worth as a person. 🧵🧵🧵(1/5)

re: SDCC allowing GenAI into their art show. SDCC costs creators *thousands* of dollars to attend and they think this is ok? Readers, attendees, and creators alike need to let them know there’s no place for GenAI in the arts, period. here’s their contact page www.comic-con.org/contact/

Never use these devices. The Switch 2 is capable of cooling itself just fine. This thing is more likely to damage the hardware than help. Years back a company made one for the XBOX 360 that overheated and melted a hole in the console. They’re bad.

Capitol switchboard (202) 225-3121 Call your reps. Demand impeachment. No illegal war in our names.

You can find your US reps and senators here: reps.fyi If you call now, you'll get an answering machine and you can leave a message. A great thing to do if you're nervous about talking to someone. Just give your name, your zip code, and demand they impeach Trump for illegally invading Venezuela.

Let’s be really clear right now: Trump just carried out an illegal act and we should all be speed dialing our reps right now. Right now. Here's why: two things can be true: Maduro is responsible for human rights abuses AND Trump can't declare war w/out an act of Congress.

All right. There's the confirmation. Call your US reps and tell them to impeach. Call your US senators and tell them to publicly support impeachment. blacksky.community/profile/did:...
