FYI this is really happening and not just spooked horses in the barn. I got one of these DMs today. Report to BS and block. Don't click the link

This is interesting drama to follow lol TLDR, the people who made the AI coke commercial are denying it and generating fake concept art, actual concept artists are ripping it all apart as fake because the guy has no idea how any of this works

The b*tch of people pleasing is that anyone in your life who makes you feel like you need to scramble for their approval probably isn't going to eventually say "that's good enough, you've earned it, you can relax now." The only way to "win" a rigged game is not to play.

we are going to win, in part because they are doing things like this, but the suffering is immense and it is on all of us to mitigate it as much as we can until they are gone

Part of the reason I think there isn’t as much pressure around stopping ChatGPT re: suicide/psychosis as compared to stuff like Panera Lemonade is because people are inclined to blame it on mental illness versus the tech, a kind of victim-blaming mentality that fits neatly into just world fallacy

There's a whole generation that learned irony before sincerity and now they're trapped. Can't be earnest without a layer of self-deprecation. Can't be enthusiastic without signaling awareness of how cringe enthusiasm is. The price of never being vulnerable is never connecting.

Kham is one of my oldest collaborative friends and an amazing musician/composer. I've commissioned him multiple times for video and stream music, and I cannot recommend him enough! If you're in the need of a personal/project theme, you can't do much better than him!

Hey, friendly reminder that Scott Cawthon's donations to the GOP literally contributed to SNAP suspension and you shouldn't buy or stream Five Nights at Freddy's anything.

Thinking only of Rosalind Franklin today, and what was stolen from her (and so many other female scientists alongside her).

10/10 take. No notes.

This is evil. Don't use AI. Don't download AI apps. AI kills jobs, the planet, and people -- intentionally.

“0% woke shit” a black man with a physical disability leads an environmental terrorist cell trying to save the planet from mega-billionaires and you play as a cross dressing twink femdomed by two different women ending and the final boss against the gayest angel of all time

Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going! Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists. We made it easy at boycottspotify.com.

James Watson, who used crucial research about DNA from fellow scientist Rosalind Franklin without her permission, who talked so much shit about her after she died, and who later went to claim that Black people aren't as intelligent as white people, died at 97. There. Fixed it for you.

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market. This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

People, respect the picket line. Even if there aren’t Starbucks barista unions in your area, DON’T GO INTO STARBUCKS DURING THE STRIKE. Solicit your local coffee shops. You can get a $7 pumpkin spice latte anywhere.

you'll definitely wanna go and make sure because turns out they had engaged the nanny locks for everything on mine

BlueSky is automatically hiding posts with cuss words in them. You may want to adjust your settings:

Not now, carnivorous death ball

My spin on the gremlin:

This is how I’m gonna look every time someone hits the dislike button on one of my posts

For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting

#fatober day 20: Fat Fairy/Nymph I slowed down on posts because I was excited to make more finished pieces. I think next year, I’ll definitely make less prompts or maybe have a quicker style 🤷‍♀️ I’ll be posting the rest of the Fatober prompts periodically until they’re all finished!

Poverty and disability often go together Most people have no idea how fast their life can change One accident or illness is all it takes Losing your health can quickly wipe out your finances, your contingencies and your support network It’s why we need robust social supports.

Just got through to a REAL person by calling Gillibrand, which NEVER happens lol. Super easy and quick. Give your senators a call about these nasty bills, most of which aim to allow Trump to censor his critics online and silence LGBTQIA voices.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Hey any vocal coaches wanna help my patchwork attempts at making a singing voice sound like an actual singing voice entirely for free or But you can't be mean :c

The union is calling on people to boycott btw!!

I don't want to turn into one of those guys, but I do have to say that there's been an immense psychological benefit to starting up my computer and having it just quietly boot to a clean digital work area without a dozen windows popping up and services starting.

Tell people you love them when you feel it, let them know they're appreciated when they do things for you. Don't take for granted that people just know, that stuff is too important to go unsaid! It's so important to say it in plain and direct language.

Uninstall Grammarly NOW. They've partnered with an AI company and actively scrape your writing to train its models.

Also a good time to check ALL of your Bluesky moderation settings A couple of them were put into "Hide" without my action

They put this on by default. That's embarrassing.

heads up to anyone who holds trans kids near: amy harmon from the nyt is searching for and having a hard time finding people to interview to find out exactly what trans kids are doing when their care is limited or cut off, and for purposes of community safety, please shut the fuck up around her.

Well...started the day with bad news so... Opening slots for custom music and mixing services, a bit of an emergency, prices can be negotiated. And please remind me to never, ever...EVER...trust any trade offers again. vgen.co/Khamydrian

Just a reminder that this man is a transphobe, racist and a self hating Asian man who makes comics with himself being white. On top of that, he’s been dabbling in AI bullshit last I checked.

Reposting because, and I say this with love, some of you are going to see this and go “oh shit, I need to check my bottle” and then immediately forget about it so if this could affect you, go check right now before you even scroll to the next post, I mean it.

Bsky has taught me that there were way more elections last night than I heard about on the news. So proud of everyone for voting for school boards and propositions and other stuff that will really help people! 🥰

🚨 Paul Goodrich, Exec Board Member, IW Local 63 Paul discusses the history of labor strikes and the real change that has come from them over time. Unity is FUNDAMENTAL for success. Please share his messaging. “We want more justice and less revenge.” 1/2

Democratic party leadership has been on autopilot for ten years, they weren't losing to fascism, fascism isn't popular enough for them to lose to fascism, they were allowing it to fill the void where their leadership should have been. Tonight we're seeing that we have other options. They should too.

Desperate times...desperate measures... I decided to finally make use of this abysmal service the kids call "Patreon" and set up some paid incentives! - $5/mo = Early Access to Upcoming Projects - $15/mo = Exclusive Access to Copyrighted Reactions + More www.patreon.com/c/cybernetic...
