i’ve learned it comes down to the fact that they just. don’t. feel empathy. or love. emotions that are fundamental to our personalities & understanding of the world but they can simply choose not to have somehow. hence why they live in a fantasy world where they think everyone but them should suffer

I'm tired. We're all tired. This isn't hard to understand. You can't inflate prices of basic necessities like food and housing to ridiculous highs while keeping wages at poverty levels, then act surprised when luxury goods/services and large purchases become unattainable or payments unaffordable.

The first two episodes of the revival of Reading Rainbow have nearly 500,000 views each 🤯

Do you know how cool that is for literacy, for book joy?! We are all worthy of reading, we are all readers 💚

And NOW episode three is out! Take a look, it’s in a book 📚🌈🦋

I'll never forgive generative a.i

Having to ask "is this real?" so often has really done a number on me

I miss being able to trust art.

Ibrahim’s sister Shimaa has a heart valve condition that the family is really trying to raise the funds to get her treatment for.
I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Ibrahim. Ibrahim is just 22 and was studying electrical network engineering and working in a supermarket prior to this- he’s now trying to help his whole family including his siblings Shimaa, 21, Hind, 18, Doha, 17, Waad, 16 and Mohammed, 13.

Great write-up from Lucy Buglass. Guillermo's Frankenstein is a romantic epic that deals in "the sublime." By its nature, it deserves to be seen on the biggest screen you can find. @realgdt.bsky.social www.techradar.com/streaming/en...
Frankenstein has become my favorite del Toro movie and I'm urging people to see it on the big screen
It's been a great era for gothic horror movies

I know we all get desensitized and think our calls / voices can't move the needle, but we can, we do, keep it up:
Just for giggles, I wrote my MAGA congressman asking him to explain why he's fighting the ACA subsidies that make healthcare possible for me. Instead of his usual Trumpy bullshit, his response was "I'm hearing a lot of this, I'll get back to you." Hmmm. Maybe they are getting worried?

They are asking for $2300/month for a plan that has a deductible over $6000!!!!

For those who do not understand American healthcare (hahaha cry) you have to pay $27,600 per year and then on top of that you have to pay over $6000 out of pocket before it actually covers stuff.
Just receieved this today from Florida Blue. This is for a Bronze plan. Our monthly premiums are going from $333 (2025) to $2300 in 2026.

Listen to me. Listen. If you're making images that will only be displayed on screens, YOU HAVE TO LET GO. You can calibrate your screens perfectly, but then 25k people will see it on their shitty $50 monitors or cracked phone and its out of your hands. Don't think of it. Achieve enlightenment.

It is so funny we've heard over and over we need to go full steam ahead on AI investment and workplace adoption with no planning or regulation regardless of consequence to win a "race" with China while, from a "racing" perspective have effectively been unloading magazine clips of ammo into our feet
"But when the team looked at the employees’ actual work output, they found that the developers had completed tasks 20% slower when using AI than when working without it. Researchers were stunned. “No one expected that outcome. We didn’t even really consider a slowdown as a possibility.”

"Julio" is an irrigator on CAs Central Coast. He shared this picture saying, "Here we are unloading sprinkler pipes. We will get the soil all wet. Once the soil is wet enough they will bring in a bulldozer to form the beds where they will then plant the strawberries. #WeFeedYou

to me, “you should create for yourself” and “you deserve to be acknowledged for what you make” are two statements that should coexist. chasing engagement will rot your soul, while being neglected will see your passion wither. loving what you make is a failsafe for when the engagement never comes.

Per the advice of my friends, I am going through with a fundraiser to get me out of here . My friend has offered to let me stay with them until I can get my own place. Unfortunately, I can't offer more commissions outside of what I need to pay bills until Im caught up.

Things have gotten so bad with my mom i fear i may have to make a gofundme to escape. Dealing with her has become unbearable. She's prone to scream over nothing, and this morning was a breaking point for me. Things /were never this bad/ a few years ago. Or maybe they were and im forgetting

its interesting watching people work out in real time that frictionless peaceful demonstrations are very easy to ignore regardless of size. Still worthwhile just as a way to get people involved but actual change requires us to be so difficult and annoying that people lose money

Whenever indie devs use AI, it hurts their sales potential and retention because it’s a 🚩red flag for generalized unprofessionalism and cut corners.

Getting real art from a pro will make you look like a pro.
If you're a solo dev/small indie team looking for art or logos please don't turn to genAI. I would honestly rather folks reach out to a designer and offer like rev share alongside a smaller up front cost to get something made by a person.

Hell email me and we'll chat. Don't turn to the slop machine
