My former riding instructor Ruby Doss had this brilliant observation (about horses, but applies as well): "There are no short cuts. No AI. Nobody can learn to ride for you, and steps can't be skipped."

This is about writing & AI but could be about being a visual artist as well. "Do you actually want to learn how to write, or just pretend to do so?" www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

I'm sure it never crossed their minds. "There is no suggestion that Donald Trump Jr and Eric Trump knew that Cove was on the cusp of securing a contract from their father’s US administration when they made their initial investments in Skyline through Dominari subsidiary American Ventures"

“For all those who seek to impose fear and violence, there is no better response than defiance and mockery.” ✊ Why is this award so important in this context, according to 🗣️ #Kak, @terrytoon.com, #MarieBarbeyChappuis, @rachita.bsky.social, #Gado 👉 www.freedomcartoonists.com

Melania attacks satire and the First Amendment Carr answers the call with renewed investigation of Disney under the guise of rooting out the enemy of MAGA: Diversity, Equity and Inclusion substack.com/pub/anntelnaes @anntelnaes.bsky.social

Just doodling during the king's speech....

Carr is doing an "early license review" of Disney's licenses. Beyond DEI, Carr is also investigating ABC’s daytime show The View regarding "equal time" rules and looking into alleged "news distortion" and "fake news" Disney shares slipped around 1% following the news @anntelnaes.bsky.social

The political cartoonists out here keeping it real. It’s going to be interesting to see how the networks will respond. Love this latest from @anntelnaes.bsky.social
