If you have a Gmail account, you need to read this. Google's AI now scans your emails and attachments, bank statements, tax files, medical letters, all of it. It turned on by default, and there's a class-action lawsuit over how. Here are 5 moves to shut it off, the switch is hidden in two places:

Hi Internet! I'm Drew and THIS IS MY FACE. If this GIF has ever brought you joy in the past, I humbly ask you to consider making a donation to the National MS Society. It would mean a lot to me and to those I know affected by the disease! Donate at blinkingguy.com

Been busy all day trying to wring the last bit of fun out of Sumner before school begins so I haven’t been able to post this photo from my morning dog walk. Found a discarded memo. I love the notion of “unreasonable hospitality“! The dog shadow is Kaiser lol. #onmywalk #kaiserthecorgi

A photo illuminated by the morning sun focusing on a note draped on an arm which reads, “snack mix stuff, flower s, unreasonable hospitality “
A shadow of a dog walking on a leash can be seen on the background.

The biggest target I've ever seen on my books. Texas placed Banned Book Club and Occulted on a state-wide list of illegal "dirty books." Having them in any school could lead to state takeover where the government could shut down the library entirely and convert it into a student detention center.

Texas Lieutenant Governor releases a list of 2200 "dirty books" deemed illegal for school libraries to have, including two of my books about book censorship.

Absolute longshot: I'm looking for Euan Smith who drew artwork for White Dwarf magazine in the mid 1980s and therefore is probably British and probably in his late 50s or 60s. Do you or did you know him?

🤦‍♂️Literally failing from the jump. This comic need more followers and shares on biskies! I write, draw, color, and letter this alone-- no AI EVER. Your support keeps me going. Thank you! bsky.app/profile/ninj...

A four panel digital comic predominantly with a cosmic/nebula background save for panel one which is cloudy and peachy.
panel 1 features a giant hand with the figure of a tiny Sun Wukong fighting to keep his balance within. The narrator box reads, "Ruling Heaven requires fortitude, wisdom, and a strong will! Buddha agreed to assess Sun Wukong's worthiness with a simple test."
panel 2 shows The Great Buddha from behind raising their arm and presenting the cosmic landscape to Sun Wukong declaring, "As you understand the universe is vast. Find the edge of it and post your presence there. I will see your work and then advise The Jade Emperor of your qualifications."
panel 3 shows Sun Wukong from a low angle standing proud and resolute. He boasts, "Heh heh, this'll be a breeze! Keep my seat warm! I'll be back faster than you can blink!"
panel 4 takes place from the perspective of "ground level" in the Buddha's palm with Sun Wukong using a cloud to leap high into the heavens. He yells back, "See ya, chumps!"
