HE IS COMING | PART 2 | patreon.com/lubchansky

During the brazilian elections we learned one obvious but important tactic to defeat the far right on the Internet and I think everyone should know it: IGNORE THEM! DON'T ENGAGE WITH THEIR CONTENT! DON'T MAKE CONTENT REACTING TO THEM! DON'T HATE QRT! LET THEM ALONE IN THEIR BUBBLE!

over TEN MILLION people in a single whatsapp channel!! our leader, andré janones, would give us "missions" like: the president is making a post at 7pm, everyone go like and comment. in 30 minutes, everyone google "flávio bolsonaro [something he did and tried to hide]" etc. we beat the algorythm lol

Waiting eagerly for the reckoning. Give us a reckoning. We deserve a reckoning.

Billionaires, too. And maybe some chickenshit law firms and universities. Powerful executives cozied up to Trump. Now they fear a reckoning. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

I agree about Earth's red lantern being a cat, but I don't think it goes far enough. Earth's Yellow Lantern? Cat. Orange lantern? Cat. Star Sapphire? Believe it or not, also Cat.

I know the vast majority of you are here because of my art, but I need to share a thread about Brazilian politics because what we achieved today deserves to be mentioned and celebrated I'll do my best to be objective for those who have no idea what was happening

this is like the 5th time this has happened, im keeping on top of it, i know their strategies (which can be easily dealt with via moderation tools), & the backup plans (usually crying that using moderation tools to manage an extremely obvious dogpile campaign is 'silencing critics') keep an eye out

dunno why it took so long but the bigots finally found the episode lmao. if u see a cavalcade of 'just asking question' type comments or god forbid a 'shes silencing critics' campaign, just be aware that theres an active campaign to flood the videos comments with bigotry

lol

I know absolutely nothing about Lula except that i saw someone share a clip on insta of him in celebration kissing a trans woman politician on the cheek and oh my god is that a radical act for a politician in 2026 so lets fucking go

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

i'll do another proper announcement post later around primetime but the no AI notice with cute fox is up on itch now: eniko.itch.io/cute-fox-no-...

This. A thousand times over, this. I think it was Maya Angelou who once observed that wasting your time was a genuine tactic of these people, deployed with the intent to distract, frustrate, and exhaust. Block that shit and commit to sharing only actionable, informative political content.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

LOL. LMAO. LOOOOOOOL.

Honestly, fuck the cis and their bullshit.

Every millenial grew up hearing "don't feed the trolls", that is the ultimate way to beat the far-right online. Starve them of attention long enough, they will come to your posts to rage bait. And you will LET THEM, because their noise on YOUR posts boosts YOU.

Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin@ecmclaughlin.bsky.social · 5h ago

One of my biggest takeaways from the post-election reporting from Brazil is a confirmation of something I’ve been saying for years now: The way to defeat the algo is to amplify our own candidates, not rage bait post about the far right. Seriously think about how many big name accounts are built

As someone who loves the Cheesecake Factory DOWN, the joke was funny. Also, Cheesecake Factories are far less tacky than the White House at the moment--which makes the joke even funnier.

Mariah McCourt@monsterteatime.bsky.social · 21h ago

Obama wasn't criticizing The Cheesecake Factory or anyone who likes it there. He was pointing out that a POTUS who is turning the WH into the equivalent of a tacky gold gift shop to himself is gross.

hey just a heads up kiwifarms is trying to spread some fake allegations about us around, dont fall for any of it, its all extremely easily disproven, u know the drill, thx ❤️🖤

I can't believe he's still at it, it's been days

i see some artists from instagram testing the waters here so i am nudging all my fellow artists who have been here for a while to maybe share some of their artist starter packs and lists 🫵🏻

PUT THE BOY BACK IN HIS DIAPERS, TAKE ALL HIS SHINY TOYS THAT HE STOLE FROM EVERYONE AND PACK HIS ASS OFF TO PRISON!!!!

I'm currently working on an educational blog post about ableism in art spaces (both online and in person), with ways to counter it. If you know of, or have faced, ways ableism manifests in these spaces feel free to talk to me about it! I'm trying to make it comprehensive.

Well well well. Etsy sent an email this morning with new AI policies. It’s not an outright ban, but they basically said if you’re using it to deceive - including, hallelujah, AI generated patterns and recipes - you’ll be kicked out. Enforcement remains to be seen, but I’m glad to see it.

FUCK YES finally I can report those evil bastards posting AI embroidery patterns that make beginners feel bad when they can't execute something IMPOSSIBLE.

Disappointed no one's gone for the TAX ALL THEM RICH FUCKERS t-shirt on teepublic. I bet them billionaires are suppressing the orders! *You can get it as a print-on-demand sticker, too: www.teepublic.com/sticker/1004...

If you are USian, pay attention. We are fighting fascists funded by your oligarchs, tomorrow I have faith and hope we will win and it will be DESPITE THEIR FORTUNE. We organized in the streets and online and there is a LOT that can be applied to your fight as well

If you’re American and don’t care about the Brazilian election, you should learn how much the corrupt powerful people in the US really care about the Brazilian election.

overheard in a gift shop today where there were blatantly AI generated Halloween illustrations, an older woman went "ohh how cute!" and the teenager with her, So Done, goes "I know you have a hard time telling, but that is AI, it's ugly, and I'm sick of it" I wanted to throw that teen a parade
