AI consumed as much water as the water bottle industry this year. It also created as much carbon pollution as New York City, according to a new study. www.theverge.com/news/845831/...

AI’s water and electricity use soars in 2025

It’s guzzling up even more water than expected.

Listen to me. Listen. If you're making images that will only be displayed on screens, YOU HAVE TO LET GO. You can calibrate your screens perfectly, but then 25k people will see it on their shitty $50 monitors or cracked phone and its out of your hands. Don't think of it. Achieve enlightenment.

A photo mock-up of a “Eat The Rich” themed sticker placed on a pole in a city setting - it features Elon Musk as a chunk of meatloaf, Mark Zuckerberg as a pile of peas, and Jeff Bezos as a lump of mashed potatoes. All are on a white plate with a fork and knife on each side. There’s also graffiti on the pole that says, “No War But Class War”.

I know others have likely said this, but the point and the joy in art is that it is problem solving in action. It is watching your improvement piece by piece and creating a personal visual language Whenever people use AI instead it quite literally defeats that entire purpose of creating

digital painting in Procreate. A small river flows trough a rocky landscape with pine trees and greenery. The blue sky is filled with white clouds. In front of a stone between the water sits a fox (my OC Jascha) looking up at a flying sparrow. On the same rock are two more sparrows.

People living under fascism didn’t survive by giving up joy—they protected it. They held onto the things fascism tried to erase: art, friendship, jokes, rituals, language, memory. Not as escapism but as resistance. As proof they were still human. Joy isn’t frivolous under fascism. It’s strategic.

Another early piece in my Arthropride series is my Pansexual dragonfly. This was a challenge but also came out the best out of my early pieces. I am really proud of it and hope people like it. #art #invertart #invert #dragonfly #pride #prideart #pridemonth #pride2025 #pan #pansexual

Pansexual Dragonfly

A digital piece of a color altered photorealistic dragonfly in the pansexual flag colors against a blurred mottled background of the same colors (magenta, yellow, and cyan). The dragonfly is facing up and left and has a largely magenta body with blue eyes, mouth parts, and dark spots defined on a highlighted abdomen. Yellow spots and detailing fill in the rest of the abdomen and make up a lot of the white highlights. The wings are semi transparent, the top pair mostly yellow and the bottom pair mostly blue. The dragonfly clings to a blue twig with its mostly magenta legs.

What AI offers is something very simple: freedom from thinking. Fascism is built on this. In times of crisis, they offer the ability to shut off critical and introspective thought, gift people the freedom to become worse and more selfish, and to leak into obvious self-destruction.
