iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I finally decided to join the REPO Discord server just to better keep updated on the progress of the game, and reading over the rules and TOS, they mention "no AI generated content." THANK YOU, SEMIWORK! I knew there was a reason I loved them so much. Best developers!

If I can give up my favorite store, find a new coffee shop, find a new restaurant to get chicken sandwiches, etc. then you shouldn't have any problem giving up a kids book and movie/tv series. If you can't give it up to show support for trans people, then own it. But know that we can't trust you.

Another reason to hate generative AI.

Post from makesoneteam

I hate how much ai has taken the joy out of seeing something cool. You used to see something cool, like a really intricate drawing or a video of someone doing an insane skill or two animals doing something cute, and because there were no mental gymnastics involved in discerning whether or not it was 'real' you could sit there and have the joy of like, "wow! how did they do that! how cool is it that they made that! what a wonderful moment to have captured!" and now every time I see something remarkable i HATE that I have to sit there and be like okay let me go frame by frame to make sure everything lines up. let me double check the page this comes from. let me scroll through the comments to make sure no one called out something i missed. like i want the joy of being able to trust someone else's creation back, please

I already liked Ms. Rachel. FOX News doesn't have to try and convince me. Also, they left out that she cares for ALL children. Apparently that's a big no-no in Conservative spaces. Heaven forbid a child educator care for the wellbeing of children.

I thought my hygiene needed some improvement. But I just found a clip of Asmongold bragging how he took a shower for the first time in 2 and a half MONTHS, and he didn't even bother to use soap! Just clawed at his dead skin. What the hell? Why is it becoming a trend for grown men to not shower?

It's always weird seeing the attack campaign ads where it says "this candidate is for they/them. Vote the other guy instead." And as a non-binary person... it just makes me feel like my rights and voice doesn't matter. That I'm the butt end of the joke. It fucking sucks.

It makes my skin crawl when anti-immigrant people talk about assimilation. As if we're the Borg or Cybermen or something. It's so gross, AND we don't expect it of European immigrants. Gee, I wonder why.

Threads post from Wendy Webb

Dear Tom Emmer,
You said Somalis don't assimilate.
Here's a newsflash. Neither did your German ancestors. Or Italians. Or Irish. Or Mexicans. They brought their culture, customs, celebrations, and cuisine to this country. It's why we eat tacos and celebrate Cinco de Mayo. And drink beer during Oktoberfest. And turn Irish on St Patrick's Day.
American culture is an amalgam of all of our various nationalities, Tom.
The only people who were forced to assimilate were the ones whose land we stole.

This sounds so refreshing as someone who grew up Evangelical... I was made to feel like I was a bad person if I wasn't always constantly looking at how I could evangelize to people. Christianity seems to be one of the few religions that wants to convert the whole world to their way of thinking.

In my experience as an ex-Evangelical, many Christians have a hard time stepping outside of their worldview. They can't fathom that other people of other faiths don't secretly agree with them.

I really do think the movie Promising Young Women needs to be mandatory viewing for every person. It honestly does such a good job highlighting this stupid reality and how even other women can perpetuate it since it's so pervasive.

Women are seen as baby factories, living sex dolls, and domestic slaves. Some Conservatives are throwing around the idea of repealing the 19th Amendment to stop women voting. Women are dying in States with strict abortion laws. But please tell me how trans women existing is the biggest problem.

Somehow, someone saw this comment of mine and thought I was calling all men evil. The "not all men" strikes again, even when it's very clearly not a comment about all men. Look, if you're a dude and see someone call out toxic men and you lump yourselves in with them? That's very suspect.

Astonishing really how ADHD-denialism so closely matches early trans-denialism (say, a decade ago, before it went mask-off eliminationist), to the point that it includes the exact same personalities, again vomiting their know-nothing opinions all over the place.

Live your life in such a way your death will be mourned, not celebrated. RIP Dolly. You were the best of us... The wrong 80-year-old was taken from us.

Post from booksandsideeyes

Dolly Parton. Donald Trump. Both 80.
One was born with nothing. one was born with everything.
One lived a life defined by love, kindness, and generosity. One built his life around hate, revenge, and grievance.
One could have become a billionaire but chose to give millions away. One has amassed enormous wealth while ordinary people struggle.
One is adored. One is abhorred.
One is mourned around the world. The other will be celebrated.
Your choices in life matter, even after you're gone.

This is the perfect example of why I, an artist and graphic designer, hate AI slop. Even if we remove the environmental impact, stealing others work, etc. One thing AI slop can't do is understand design principles. It steals from other designs, sure. But it doesn't understand basic design.

It's honestly funny hearing Conservatives freak out over Talarico saying there are 6 genders. They'd flip their lids if they found out there's people like me who thinks there's as many genders as there are humans. You thought 6 was too many? Really?

"They're trying to trans your kids!" Now, why on earth would we intentionally give cis kids gender dysphoria when we know damn well how horrible it is? You can't turn a cis person trans. In the same way, you can't turn a trans person cis no matter how much you hate trans people.

Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic. Kids dying in war? Not a problem. Kids living as their authentic selves? A huge problem. Their priorities are so messed up. Good to know some of them, at least, are waking up. Too little too late, but it's at least something.

It's just weird seeing political ads... the things Conservatives seem to be worried about are potential higher taxes and minority groups simply existing. Whereas us? We're worried people will be killed and have their rights removed. We are not the same... It's privilege at its highest.

This is in response to The Daily Wire's new movie depicting a Muslim killing queer people. I don't recommend watching the clip. It's very blatant and bleak... it screams projection. And it's such a caricature of Muslims and queer people. The one lady literally has blue hair.

I heard an interview today about AI in creative spaces and the man being interviewed said "AI is data, and Data can only look backwards. Creativity looks forwards." And I need to sit with that in the best possible way.

"They're not misunderstanding the film; they're co-opting a message"

Screencap from the interview linked in the quoted post

Marlow Stern (the interviewer): You have one of the most renowned replies in Twitter history. Elon Musk tweeted out, “Take the red pill,” then Ivanka Trump enthusiastically wrote, “Taken!” to him, and then you replied, “Fuck both of you.” I’m curious how you feel about the co-opting of “The Matrix” by those on the right who don’t really seem to understand its messaging.

Lilly Wachowski: I mean, I can’t sit in a room and explain the movie to every single person who watches it. Even if I did sit in a room with Elon Musk and Ivanka Trump — yikes — it doesn’t matter. They’re not misunderstanding the film; they’re co-opting a message. And that’s what fascists do: They co-opt the messages of progressives and use it to their benefit to confuse and obfuscate what is going on and the intention of their ideology. They do it with everything. They do it with Martin Luther King Jr. Look at how they’ve changed the idea of what antisemitism is.

Why will I never use generative AI? Because I've seen what it can do and I'm not impressed. It's all so terrible looking. It doesn't know design principles at all and just looks like someone threw up something onto the image. Why would I use something like that? It's gross.

It seems like a lot of the people who are complaining about the birth rate are also the same people who think the end times are going to happen any day now. So, I just have to wonder... why are they so concerned with the birth rate when they think it's the end of the world? Makes zero sense.

I was pretty young when it happened, but the teachers at my elementary school thought we should see it and brought tvs into our classroom. I was the only child in my class who cried because I realized how horrible it was, and the other kids made fun of me... so, no. I didn't see that unity, either.

I knew who Trump was 10 years ago when he first ran for president. I was still a Christian at the time. I saw then he didn't align with my morals & values and could not vote for him. I'm no longer a Christian, but my values stayed the same. I will NEVER understand why so many Christians support him.
