AI might just be one of the most evil creations humanity has ever come up with. Its only purpose is to strip human society of any form of trust, sincerity or genuine creativity and I hate it with everything I have.

genuinely beautiful that new york elected a muslim lefty mayor the same day that dick cheney died
BREAKING: Zohran Mamdani will be the next mayor of New York City after running on a platform centered on making the city affordable for working people.
important reminder: food banks usually prefer money to direct food donations because they can buy at discounted rates check with your local food bank to be sure but now is the time to help out
Americans brace for food stamps to run out: ‘the greatest hunger catastrophe since the Great Depression’
Restricting the expression of sexuality through fiction and art made by adults, for adults – including those you find personally disturbing or offputting – is conservative censorship, full stop. When that censorship disproportionately affects subgroups, that's also discrimination. For shame.
The bad news keep coming These go into effect Oct 15th
draining is a really good for what it feels like to be doing anything creative right now.
Very disappointed in @bsky.app for choosing to silence artists, self moderation is the way. People can block and move on if they don't like what they see. Censorship is never the way. It's a double edged sword and it WILL be used to hurt creatives.
how I feel trying to explain to normies why nsfw ban and censorship is bad and why they should care
Being an artist in this fucked up world is so fucking exhausting it just drains me completely sometimes
The solution right now is not saying “move to Mastodon, to Pillowfort, use Picarto galleries” etc, bc that won't stop this silent escalation of censorship and sexual repression on the internet. The issue is not which platform we choose, but rather raising our voices against what is happening.
Cancel your Disney plus subscription and put that money towards some creators you like 👌🏾
Controversial opinion, but I think trans people should feel safe here on bluesky, and nazis shouldn't.
its the 11th of september where i am, or 11/9 so. yknow this seems apt in a way
what a day
Everyone on Bluesky is poised like we're waiting for the DVD logo to hit the corner of the screen

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

corporations being able to control what kind of art we're allowed to see on the internet is bad
the overwhelming degree of unfettered evil that the past few years has revealed in all institutions of the world has done a real number on me. I never thought any of them were paragons of morality, but I somehow had an idea there were levels they wouldn’t stoop to.
Israel is using Microsoft Azure to store recordings of every phone call made by Palestinians in the occupied territories, then using AI to analyze the contents and select targets. Microsoft is (dubiously) claiming ignorance.
reposting as a reminder to myself to call tomorrow (the petition won’t do anything but some good points to mention for reference)
It was only a matter of time, but Canada has joined the censorship bandwagon with Bill S-209. Sign the petition, call your MPs, raise hell. www.change.org/p/stop-bill-...
Maybe 10 years ago: Technology is great and makes my life easier in many ways Now (holding a big caveman club): We must destroy machine
OSA is gonna make us lose access to fucking wikipedia write to your MPs.
Do you wish a fantasy series with wizards that talks about the way people grow? Read Discworld by Sir Terry Pratchett! You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you will grow. Wether it is the Witches, the Wizards or the Night Guard, you will learn about us in a fantasy mirror of our world. Read Discworld!
Please… for the love of god, just stop reading Harry Potter. There are other god damn fantasy series out there, and ones that don’t give money and attention to a person helping to directly harm trans people.
