I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

The entire reason AI is being deployed in schools is to funnel money out of schools and into tech companies. Whatever reasons you've convinced yourself that AI edtech is necessary, regardless of how "useful" you think it is, it's sole purpose is to pad the pockets of the wealthy.

There were few things Google could do to force users off of Chrome faster than this. "We put an entire AI thing on your machine without telling you" I bet the entire marketing department for Chrome is absolutely melting down right now.

I see no lies here

My legal team is now working on copyright cases against SHEIN. They were the first place that counterfeits of my work started showing up and I am glad to be able to finally go after them. If you have had your art ripped, please contact Justice for Artists. They won a huge case for me last year.

Hi! I'm a farmer! This NYT article is sweet, saccharine bullshit. Farmers knew Trump was going to hurt our business. Because he already did a trade war in his 1st term. I even did a video on why so many farmers support Trump, WHILE knowing he'd hurt our farms.

I’m home but still have the week to do what I want; I’ll be getting a few art related tasks done and opening for June commissions later in the week. I do feel creatively recharged and I plan to get started on some MerMay art today. 😊

Sometimes I will have one brief dream about a character, and they wind up with more intricate/specific details than characters I made while actually conscious haha Her eyes were the most vivid part ;u; so moody and dreamy.

In 2005, James McMurtry wrote a scathing, incandescent populist anthem about the forgotten people of Middle America, abandoned and betrayed by elites. In 2025 he refuses to play it anymore, and his his new album is a haunting, bitter reflection on our history and ideals. Let's talk about that.

Since ol' Clarence is trending:

Query: If you (or someone you watch/listen to) had a NON-TTRPG/Actual Play podcast, YouTube channel, etc. AND Played a tabletop roleplaying game on that feed/channel/etc BEFORE 12/31/2018 could you let me know? (I have some examples but trying to see if I missed anything)

1. In a landmark ruling, the Montana Supreme Court has declared that the constitution, one of the most progressive in the nation, entirely protects transgender people. The ruling is even insulated from SCOTUS decisions, due to how state constitutions work. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Maybe less of a hot take and more luke warm. But I've been seeing artists start using the term 'slop' for their "lazy" art or "doodles" or whatever-- and man do I hate that-- Slop was popularized recently regarding "AI Slop" so it feels super fuckin weird to throw your art into the same category.

ppal doesn't give a shit if you sell commissions via their platform. They care if you function as a business while pretending to be friends and family payments only to dodge the 5% **TAX DEDUCTIBLE** fee they ask businesses to pay or to dodge the charge back option. Just send a fucking invoice.

just this week: -- OpenAI killed Sora -- Disney subsequently cancelled its investment in OpenAI -- Wikipedia is now banning LLM-generated content ...tell me again how this is all "inevitable" and you have to "get on board or get left behind"?

This post clearly articulates why folks MUST boycott this franchise. It is *extremely* documented what she's doing with her money. I used to cosplay Narcissa Malfoy back in the day. I met some of my closest friends at HP cons. We're still friends. We walked away from HP entirely. Please walk away.

I think with the level of venom with which AI proponents have treated artists, writers, musicians, whole creative industries, they deserve at the very least to have that venom met in kind, and I hope it stings. I'm only sorry it hasn't happened sooner. Party's over, enjoy the hangover.

All those Patreon and PayPal fees add up, make sure you’re including them when you do your taxes!

Quick reminder that baked into the foundation of AI is the inability to assess the reliability of its answers or even to admit it's wrong in any meaningful capacity (it will say "i'm wrong, I'm sorry" but then carry on as usual). It will hallucinate and it also will never realise it.

Every card from @evandahm.bsky.social's Friends Deck has a different unique friend on it, so there are 56 friends in all! They seem like nice friends to have. topatoco.com/products/ed-...

It’s anecdotal, but @poormojo.bsky.social designs book covers for people and can also say that when authors he’s worked with have switched to AI covers, sales go down.

Not for nothing, the person who coined the "Kamala is a cop" meme that took off like wildfire in "leftists" circles was a woman who was convicted under Harris' tenure as AG for indecent contact with a minor, a teenage boy.

Age gates on the internet have NOTHING to do with 'protecting kids' Stop even entertaining that argument. If anyone in the US admin gave a SHIT ABOUT KIDS every pedophile on the epstein list would be in jail. Every fucking bomb sent to israel would be stopped. They DO NOT GIVE A SHIT about kids.

I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it. I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.” 1/

It feels like since 2015, a number of people have lost hold of the basic concept that a vote for or against a policy or candidate is actually about the policy or candidate. It's a binary input! Yes or no! If you vote seperate to "send a message," the message you've sent is "I want to seperate!"
