I struggled to contain my rage this past week reading about the Cornell Seven. Rage towards men who use the degradation of women as a bonding activity. Rage towards the cowards who stay silent and perpetuate the system they benefit from.

I love how these bots don't even try anymore. Like the last few bots I've blocked have all had the exact same pinned post of a gofundme -- that is always under a different name each time -- but using the exact same sad (probably stolen or generated) pic of a boy sitting on some rubble.

CSP being pressed to take even just /kissing/ off their asset store and FA being told that plus sized characters are considered adult should be a giant waving red flag to folks. Sex workers have /always/ been right to say these policies never stop with 1 type of content. They always wanna ban more.

If you think an artist's style looks like AI but you can scroll back through their portfolio and see them doing the same work before 2020, congrats, you're not looking at an AI grifter. You're looking at one of the original victims whose entire style AI stole.

An Antidote for Strychnine, a tribute illustration to one of my favourite @themountaingoats.bsky.social songs.

Poster style color illustration, composed of several panels displaying different images based on the song: lab rats, chemicals, fish bones... Green and blue tones predominate, but the band's name and the song title are written in yellow.

almost every woman I know in games has a story about themselves or someone they know, myself included. i, and many others, weren't believed because "they're a good person" and there is a clique problem in games where if you're in that clique, you're protected. MinnMax made the right call here.

end result of a decade+ of corps treating art like Product and fine-tuning it to this end, many don't view art as a thing made by another person as a form of communication, they view it as a product like milk or eggs, ergo if you can have a machine endlessly produce things to your tastes, good

The princess took an earring off and held it out. The raven looked at it. "Whatever for?" "You are wise and clever. Many princesses have dragons, but none has a raven friend." The raven picked up the earring. "Say no more." "Friends?" she asked when it returned the next day. "Forevermore."

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”
