recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best. It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

Hey guys, last month a semi-truck backed into my car and totaled it. Insurance is handling it... but my car is from 2001, so I'm going to have to eat most of the cost myself. To soften the blow a little bit I'm opening donations, and commissions will be open down the line! ko-fi.com/grapplemace

We Asked Roblox’s C.E.O. About Child Safety. It Got Tense.

This interview is a snapshot into where tech companies are with online harassment right now.

They know how to end it, but they decided not to spend the money. They’re prioritizing growth (and profit) above all else. And they’re blaming YOU for logging on to the platform they designed to be unsafe.

(around an image of the No Kings logo) IT’S OFFICIAL Nearly 7 million people have attended today's peaceful protests, which makes No Kings Day the biggest single-day protest against tyranny in American history! With more than 2,700 lawful and peaceful protests across all 50 states, No Kings Day was 14 times larger than both of Trump's presidential inaugurations (combined).

After a week of ridiculous Republican smears and Trump claiming that “very few people are going to be there,” you just made history. #NoKings

Apparently it's Coming Out day and I don't have much to say except: I'm gay as fuck and it's a good thing. May every queer person now and future know a world where they are loved and welcomed as they are.

Someone's screenshot of a two-post twitter thread, from user blue (@bluewmist): the fastest way to kill motivation is to make your identity depend on the outcome. it's called ego involvement. when failing becomes failing as a person, your brain starts avoiding the whole thing. not because you don't care, but because you care too much. you don't need lower standards. you need less self-worth tangled up in your goals. the work gets easier when it's not about proving who you are.

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

DELICIOUS SCRUMPTIOUS TASTY. LOVE THIS SO MUCH THANK YOU FOR THE MEAL (I ADORE BLOODIED LUIS <3)

me and my improper capitalization can be trusted with your molars!!!

a redraw of a screenshot from the game “no i’m not a human.” a person with medium skin and dark choppy hair just past their shoulders looks up at the viewer with an unnerving smile, as though through a peephole at nighttime. everything is colored in shades of green and turquoise, but their eyes are unshaded & bright reddish-orange. they wear a loose white sleeveless shirt, two necklaces (one with a sword resting on a ring charm & one made up of a series of interlocking jump rings to hold a d20 inside) and teeth charm earrings. the dialogue to the right reads “Mind if i take a look at your teeth? Just a look — promise.” with the responses reading “[Offer teeth]” & “You should leave”

forgot to capitalize the i . oh well #noimnotahuman #ninah #illustration

lightmode is also easier for me to read :D !

a sun-tanned freckled teenager sitting with their elbow propped up on one knee, gazing solemnly out over their arm at the viewer. they have amber eyes and wavy brown hair dyed pink at the ends & tied into a messy half-up half-down style. they also have a small braid on their left side. they're wearing a black tank top, black paint-covered cargo pants, red sneakers, and an oversized red flannel that's resting off one shoulder to show part of a scar from a crossbow bolt on their shoulder. their pants have hand-painted designs including a snake, a sun, and eyeballs. their socks are patterned with celestial print, and they wear a necklace with a gold ring looped around the chain. they have a few silver dangly earrings, as well as marker drawings on their left hand that resemble a skeleton hand in yellow, purple, and black (nonbinary colors!). in their right hand, resting on their other knee, they hold a red phone with a glowing screen displaying the symbol of the dead skeptic: a skull with a smoking pipe.
