Oh, I definitely agree that it’s not an endearing movie. I think it was just relatable and engaging for me. I also enjoyed the AfroLatinx representation. But I totally understand your reasoning

My partner regularly reminds me that I’m a sicko because they refuse to watch gory and depressing television as frequently as I do.

Ppl are defaulting to "established" rules and status quo in their analyses of this moment as if things are business as usual and fascists actually care about respecting said rules.

Sometimes, for no reason at all, I think about when DeRay thought that monkey on Planet of the Apes was him.

Found my new favorite meme.

Old fashioned illustration of a white man in a suit holding out his hand in a “calm down” gesture. Text next to him reads: “Tone.”

A long time ago, I spent time arguing with people who decided they wanted to try me.

Thinking you finally have a “gotcha moment” so you talk to me wild with this idea that I’d perform for you just because you demand it is ridiculous.

Get you a journal. Look inward. Read a book. My god.

Idk what kind of upheaval we need for NJ Transit, but I need them to stop hiring assholes.

Something about strangers needing to discipline a wild child of another docile ass guardian on a train at midnight is very New York.

A UPS driver yelled out “the fit is fitting!!” while I was waiting for the bus. Now I’m feeling myself.

If you can teach yourself 3D modeling, graphic design, and sketching, it’s not too much to go the extra step to learn how to do the thing you’re selling to people.

All that to say is that now I’m meticulously going through my Etsy list to see how much AI Generated or Assisted work has made it to my list.

Unfortunately, it’s one too many.

Ol’ boy at the center of the AI art feature at Culture Con decided to clear the air by creating a video about how he uses graphic design to come up with a concept but uses AI to fully complete the image (because he doesn’t fully blend, paint, or anything). Not sure if that helps.

“As soon as a ceasefire deal is signed, nobody bothers with the details. Gaza disappears, and it’s back to this slow, latent, invisible violence of starvation and engaging people in a permanent state of nonlife,” says Muhammad Shehada, a writer and analyst from Gaza.

The Gaza Ceasefire Deal Is Not a Peace Agreement. What Will Happen Next?

Palestinian and Israeli analysts weigh in on how to interpret the hostage-ceasefire deal.
