If I could give everyone one easy piece of advice that will make you a better writer/artist/critic, it's this: watch a movie every night. One you haven't seen before. Make sure, at least once a week, that it's from a foreign country if you're American. No dubs. Subtitles. You can thank me later.
The biggest technological revolution of our lifetime and it has nothing to do with AI, crypto, metaverse, robots or any of the other massively hyped "tech" the media always talks about instead
Sarah Taber@sarahtaber.bsky.social · 2d agoAbsolutely unbelievable how solar power has taken off worldwide during the Hormuz oil crisis. You don't have to hand it to him, but Trump may have done more to finally kick off a global civilization of effete librul solar users than anyone else in the West

I would like to propose a members bill banning male politicians telling us to have babies.
I read and hear from people that using AI to search for something is quick for them but I'm old enough to remember search engines / SEO have gotten worse and worse over the last few years. I still remember a time where I would find what I was looking for very quickly. They just made everything shit.
There will always be people who appreciate what YOU make, it just might take them a while to find you.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

Was at an airshow last week recording some insanely loud fighter jets with all of my sound recording gear, and a small child came up to me and asked if I could please make the planes quieter 😭
"Hey Megan why are you suddenly talking about libraries so much" well mostly cus I'm finding out how cool my local library is (it has happened two or three times and I keep finding a new sub-basement of underground cool reserves), but ALSO, your library's funding is based on USE. USE YOUR LIBRARY.
