I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

reducing Black and Brown children and families to dots on a screen of zero consequence while also saying that some other dots on the screen, the ones that are powering the murders of the aforementioned, might have souls and feelings meaning the real crime against humanity would mean not using them

"What if the computer has feelings" ask the people who write the code used to blow up Palestinian families and Iranian school children, to strip millions of people of their health care, to help the modern-day Gestapo put our immigrant neighbors in concentration camps. Yeah, what if.

mfers will would rather argue that your computer program has feelings than accept that the same is true of a Black person, and try to construct a worldview where turning off a computer program is murder while a lynching isn't.

honestly the thing that I find most galling about all this is the massive overlap between people trying to apply human rights models to computer programs and those arguing that some categories of humans -whether by race, category, or caste- don't have them.

As horrific as the enshittification of our media landscape is, I find some solace in the fact that AI remains deeply unpopular among those who genuinely enjoy media, and don't want to just mindlessly consume whatever slop they're served. By resisting AI, you resist becoming an obedient zombie.

I don't want things to get back to normal. Normal is what got us here. Going back to normal is just setting the stage for another repeat, because we already "went back to normal" and the fuckers took advantage. I want things to change, and I want this to never happen again.

I remember Dolly Parton’s words: “If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.” Writing is much the same. The struggle is part of the journey and sometimes it leads us to our best stories. Keep writing through the rain. #DollyParton #RememberingDolly #Storytelling #WritingInspiration

If you have to make sense of the last two days, between Parton, Curry, and Kusama the principle still holds that the bigger your freak and the higher you fly that flag, the further you'll go. The more people will flock to you and see themselves in you and your work. The more impactful your legacy.

I can't help but think about how arguably the two most famous black artists of early comics, both of whom incredibly important to the history of the medium and whose influence we still see today, are George Herriman, who had to hide that he was black, and Matt Baker, who had to hide that he was gay.

By design, the system does not discriminate on who it captures. It was built to stalk everyone, not “capture criminals” or “fight crime.”
