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

An aircraft passenger oxygen mask: a drop down passenger mask with air bag and yellow plastic mouth and nose cover, oxygen tube has been cut; Demonstration model used by flight attendant crew for passenger instruction. Has text on the side indicating that it's non-functional.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and Joan Sebastian Guerrero weren't murdered because of car pursuits. They were murdered because the men driving those cars felt comfortable recklessly killing. None of this ends until we shut down ICE completely.

BREAKING: ICE orders officers to stop pursuing people in vehicles after fatal shootings in Maine and Texas, according to a current senior DHS official and two former senior DHS officials.

The quilt blocks i made back in May! all around 9.5”, except the bigger granny square. Using my naturally dyed yardage and scraps to play with color and shapes. All of ‘em hand quilted. There was a 7th one (pink with a green sawtooth star) but i sold it before getting a good picture ^_^

One of today's political prisoners. Cartoonist & zine maker Daniel Rolando Sanchez Estrada wasn't even at the ICE protest. He was accused of "moving" a box of anti-Trump zines THE NEXT DAY. A rightwing judge sentenced him to 30 years! Just for possessing zines. The darkness is descending.

A cartoonist named Daniel "Des" Rolando Sanchez Estrada was tried as a terrorist and sentenced to 30 years in prison for having anti-Trump comics in his car. Prosecutors connected him to a 2025 anti-ICE protest he didn't even attend because he was in the same book club as others who were.

Strongly recommend other artists, whether you do SFW-only or NSFW art, IMMEDIATELY get at least one backup payment processor besides PayPal set up for invoicing, seems likely this is gonna affect way more undeserving artists' accounts based on arbitrary search terms. I could use suggestions myself!

Well fuck, i just got an email from paypal saying my account has been permanently deactivated because "we found unapproved sales of sexually oriented materials or services." Pretty sure i saw another artist post about this within the last couple days, safe to assume it's AI mass-flagging accounts

gonna risk getting all woowoo for a sec and say just. how important it is that art comes from a person, no matter how "amateurish" or "messy" you feel it is, because if you spend time around art and making art, it becomes so easy to tell when humanity exits the frame. you just feel when it leaves
