I just don’t get wanting to experience a piece of art that wasn’t made by a human. I don’t get the point.

You just can't make this stuff up. Head of US Health and Human Services celebrates the release of his fraudulent report with a "health influencer" by consuming a product deemed dangerous by the agencies he oversees. Make it make sense. 🤦🏾♀️

No offense but it's 2025, as an artist, whether you support generative AI, don't support it or secretly support it, don't pretend you have no idea why other artists hate it. It's not irrational new technology hate, it's opposition to corporate exploitation of your peers artworks.

Taking no credit for this quote but we should stop calling it "ai art" and start calling it computer-rendered artificial pictures (C.R.A.P.)

Israel just committed the largest child massacre in its history. Why hasn’t a single Western media outlet made this front page news?

There’s nothing efficient about shutting down U.S. National Parks when they collectively bring in over $55B a year yet cost over $3.5B a year to upkeep. This is the kind of stupid bullshit what you do when you deliberately want to crash the economy.

I was recently floored by a line of dialogue in a children’s book—“We don’t ignore bigotry, Jack. That’s how cowardly bigots turn into brave bigots”—if you were wondering why children’s books are important, and why there has been so much concerted effort to ban them.

We’ve got avian flu, measles, tuberculosis, influenza A and B, and norovirus going around in addition to COVID, without the ability to properly track it all because of the CDC information blackout. If you’re someone who set aside masking, I urge you to pick it back up.

If you know me you know I rarely go out of my way to praise Bernie, but there’s absolutely no one meeting this moment like he is
An 83 year-old is doing a better job of harnessing anti-MAGA anger & plainly explaining the stakes — online & in-person — than anyone in the Dem Party
With 2,600 friends in Omaha, NE (plus another 800 in overflow).
Unreal energy for @BernieSanders in one of the most vulnerable Republican districts in the country.
