Americans are resisting - engaging in protest and civil disobedience in a daily basis - the cruel, brutal, illegal, inhumane actions of our gov't. Please amplify their good works, the regime doesn't want you to hear how many decent ordinary Americans refuse to comply.

And definitely DEFINITELY don’t float it as an explanation for why the character you are playing in a (historical!) play is behaving badly. Just play a villain and don’t pretend it would easily explain murdering your nephews and taking the throne if the character had been autistic all along.

The actual harsh truth about MAHA is that it is an anti-vaxx, anti-science, pro-diarrhea conspiracy movement. It cloaks its arguments in abstractions about "big pharma" and "free speech" to generate *the exact op-ed The Atlantic keeps publishing*. Movements like this need to be fought, not placated.

Can the Kylie Jenner AI surveillance glasses killing the environment fail REALLY fast? Aside from everything, I like my frames and don’t have time to go to the eye dr. But they are not, at a glance, obviously NOT the invasion of privacy goggles &I don’t want to make everyone around me uncomfortable.

A non binary persons face wearing a set of thick black frames that are not quite the same shape as the invasion of privacy goggles Kylie Jenner is hawking but not too far off. You can see along the sides that there is no room for a camera and the wearer is tilting them with one hand to make it more obvious, as they have had to do in public in general for a bit. Unrelated, they are wearing a black Hawaiian shirt with large pineapple design and standing in front of a shaded window with hanging plants. They look politely annoyed by Silicon Valley but don’t worry, just haven’t had their caffeine yet this morning. Full rage will load shortly.

I foolishly thought I'd be able to finish this quilt by LAST year's Pride Month, but easily made it for this year! Also, I've turned it into a cape for the upcoming Middletown Pride March -- CSU-AAUP (faculty union) strong!

A nonbinary quilter holds up a small "cuddle"-sized quilt with a big smile. A series of scrappy (non-matching) fabrics form various pride flags including: trans, nonbinary, asexual, bisexual, lesbian, and a square that could roughly be counted as the gay flag but those fabrics didn't quite turn out as expected. The classic rainbow is depicted in solid colors. The squares all curve rather than being straight lines and fan out, all together in the diamond-shaped around the world pattern. There are many musical instruments behind them but please ignore all other clutter.

AI makes people so weird. Presented my poster at a GenAI in Research conference yesterday. The poster’s title was “Don’t.” Almost everyone talked to me and agreed it was horrifically unethical and even more unreliable than they knew. Then they spent all day arguing for ways to use it anyway.

Woman standing next to a conference poster presentation. The text is much too small for a traditional poster because she had to fit a LOT of AI fuckery on a 24” by 36” canvas. The words “Don’t” and “You should still not use AI because of the ethical costs” are still legible. She is wearing a purple t-shirt with “I strongly feel this is an insult to life itself” - Miyazaki on Ai “ printed on it and a blazer. There is an unrelated bird art crafted by a deeply loved five year old off too the side and an embarrassing mess of papers she probably should have cropped out but can’t be arsed to.
