She asked me how we would get through a plague outbreak, so I told her that we would get through it the same way that we got through Covid: by taking care of each other; and when she replied : but we haven’t gotten through Covid; I simply said: ah.

It pains us to have to suspend assistance to families in need of basic support due to a lack of funding. A week has passed without any aid distribution, and we only have $300 left to help them again. We urge you to stand with us and not ignore this appeal We need your support chuffed.org/project/gkt

In case it was unclear, suggesting that anyone with a disability needs gen AI to do amazing art is, in and of itself, incredibly ableist. Do not spit on those who have found innumerable ways of making art without stealing from others and polluting the planet. It is disgusting to suggest as much.

"It (AI) is the backbone of a superstructure that merges regressive politics with unchecked economic power in the guise of technological innovation. Put simply, there is too much money, some of it too untraceable, giving a small group of unelected people too much power over the people."

70% of people in jails are unconvicted and simply cannot afford to pay their ransom to be free. They have not been convicted of any crime, just accused, incarcerated, and unable to pay the government's ransom for their freedom. Slavery never ended and abolitionism is a modern struggle.

the romanticism of the starving artist is invoked not by artists but by people who aren't. it's misery/inspiration porn functioning as propaganda for people to feel like it's a worthwhile sacrifice for artists to die in misery instead of horrific, because they can take the art for themselves.

When folks are selling AI as an accommodation tool for disabled students, they are selling individualism. This individualism is infused with neoliberal whiteness where the disabled person is a consumer & producer only focused on their needs, not part of of a collective political identity.
