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
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.

sometimes i forget how out of touch board games can be. the description of a game about music: “[…]across five iconic genres: African-American, EDM, Jazz, Pop, and Rock” (from pax musica, a game published by non-other than full on racist phill eklund’s ion game design
Born from a passion for music, Pax Musica takes you on a journey through its vibrant history - from the roaring the 1960s to the 2020s. Step into the shoes of a music producer and build your own path to fame.
Hit the auditions and assemble your dream team of future legends. Then crank out bangers across five iconic genres: African-American, EDM, Jazz, Pop, and Rock until the charts don't just notice you...
they surrender.

You’re right—that plane shouldn’t have gone there. That’s my fault, and I should have made sure there wasn’t a terminal in the landing path. Would you like me to call emergency services, or assist with lining up takeoffs?

Indie wrestling show I was at tonight ended with a run-in by the promotion’s first champion, who took off her hoodie and came out as trans. Standing ovation from the crowd. The most Chicago shit that ever happened. I was sincerely touched.

I appreciate that Dolly Parton refused to participate in "dress respectability" and, by her own account, modeled her aesthetic after a town "tramp," who she thought was beautiful. She separated aesthetics from character and understood "classiness" to be about how you treat people, not how you dress.

RIP Dolly Parton.

Never met her, never interviewed her (despite decades of unrequited requests) but thought she was utterly fabulous in every way.

All these people need to be prosecuted.
He began a hunger strike in detention in California and was transferred to Texas. DHS and ICE then requested an emergency court order from a federal judge to force-feed him and perform other medical procedures, such as involuntary intravenous hydration, involuntary blood draws and urine analysis tests through forced catheterization, documents from the southern district of Texas federal court seen by the Guardian show.He did not have legal representation throughout the eight month ordeal. The federal judge presiding over his case, Rolando Olvera, denied Choli's request for legal assistance and extended the force-feeding order several times at ICE's request, according to records filed in the southern district of Texas federal court.
Choli suffered injuries and medical complications, including swollen sinuses, damage to his esophagus and stomach problems, court records show.
"That is just not medical care, that is torture," Dr Chanelle Diaz, an assistant professor of medicine at Columbia University's medical center, told the Guardian. Diaz has reviewed cases of other detained immigrants subjected to force-feeding and advocated for their release.

opened sanibel’s rulebook and it starts with this nice dedication. are there any other “non-serious” board games that do that?
[the first page of sanibel’s (board game) rulebook. a small passage in front of a top-view watercolor illustration of a beach with footsteps and a couple of beach chairs]

“This game is for my father Paul, a lover of nature in all its beauty and an insatiable hunter of shark teeth. He was the one who suggested a game about collecting seashells, and it makes me so happy that we were able to play my prototype of Sanibel shortly before he died. True to form, he had the most shark teeth at the end of the game.

Sluggo, dressed as Tifa Lockheart points to Fritzi dressed as Revolutionary Girl Utena and says "your Revolutionary Goil Utena costume is great, Ms. Fritzi." Fritzi turns to her niece and asks "Nancy, where's your costume for the anime convention?" Nancy turns around and points to the back of her head where she has affixed two large eyes such that she resembles a soot sprite from Spirited Away. Fritzi looks surprised.
