this is a great article but a lot like this frame it as some massive oversight, some shortsighted mistake because nobody thought ahead, when it's become obvious that completely destroying the common trust of truth and reality in general has been the fervent dream goal of conservatives forever
I am horrified by the prospect of a future in which *I* have become one of the smartest people on the planet simply because I continually refused to use an obviously stupid computer program
“You’re alienating half of your audience by being political”
Motherfucker, my “audience” is people who aren’t pieces of shit, who care about others. That’s who I make stuff for.
There is no “other half”.
Audiences are drowning in so many options now they'll basically take any reason to dismiss your work. Using AI is a rocketship straight to the dumpster.
This is a garbage read because "When the “woke” mania swept the country in 2020"? No such thing happened, you fell for an op. You quickly and readily believed conspiratorial nonsense because it was about people you already hated, and you still believe nonsense so you learned nothing from this.
Hey artists! Next Tuesday, Apr 14, is #PortfolioDay! I thought it would be fun to do a little knowledge sharing for the art community ☺️
What are your top tips for building a professional art portfolio? How do you approach it differently if it's digital or physical?

“I post all the time on Bluesky and I never get any engagement”
Friendo have you considered skeeting out something incredibly stupid while mostly distracted by a tedious life task, preferably with an egregious typo in it? Because that right there is the juice
freelancers should be able to bill the government for the money we lose in the time we spend stressing about World Events instead of doing client work
You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.
books: the rectangle that can’t send you push notifications. Try: books.
Come on then, and remove him.
I don’t want to hear about brave and conflicted service members I want to hear about people sacrificing their careers to do the right thing
I'm not sure how you can be against removing this man from office right now. What will it take? A nuke being dropped? It's too late then. The purpose of impeachment and the 25th Amendment is to prevent that type of thing from happening, not just to react to it.
You can't separate anti-immigrant and anti-trans politics from what is happening with Iran. When MAGA picked transphobia and nativism as its organizing principle, it selected for the capacity to treat entire categories of people as civilizational threats whose elimination is an act of self-defense.
In Korea, when the president declared martial law after midnight and erected barricades in Seoul, congressional reps from all parties ran into the streets, yanked ak47s from the army at the barricades, broke down the locked door to Congress, repealed the martial law order, and arrested the president
I have nothing to say that matches the gravity of the situation. I just want peace and safety for everyone targeted by the insane whims of a madman.
Hayao Miyazaki films start in his sketches—his "image boards." It’s a habit he’s kept up for 60 years.
He works fast and loose, mainly in pencil and watercolor. Perfection isn't the goal. But you can trace his growth through the pictures. We explore:

it is funny when folks comment shit like "this makes me wanna be a luddite" in the face of AI bullshit meanwhile I just over here like "wtf do you mean? you aren't one yet???"
...then I remember a lot of people don't know that luddites weren't just technophobes en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luddite
The two truths:
1) There is nothing wrong with porn, let people safely make it, let people safely enjoy it.
2) If you let people define porn as bad, authoritarians will ALWAYS expand the definition until their hands are around your neck.
i really like this site a lot but there's a point where even if it has a bunch of great features, if they let people vibe code the backend with ai so everything breaks half the time i try to log in the good features don't really matter
Movements to shut down or ban data centers are amassing power and notching victories. Wikipedia has banned AI-generated content in articles. Publishers and entertainment studios are being pushed to reject AI-produced content outright.
In other words: It's open season for refusing AI.
seriously the devs of this place bragging about using AI while coding only for it have more issues is just hubris 101
