This is @FranceskAlbs, the UN Rapporteur who is on the frontlines of stopping the genocide in Gaza.
She is also the person the Norwegian Nobel Committee chose NOT to give the Nobel Peace Prize to.
Instead, they gave it to a woman who advocates for the US to bomb her country.

It says a lot that AI “artists” are so creatively bankrupt they think writing prompts is a difficult, arduous task.
You realize coming up with a prompt is what a real artist would call “having an idea,” right?
It took them weeks of sleepless nights to have some basic thoughts.

Love it when an animal is named like how it looks. This fish is definitely a 'wobbegong'.
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

1. I hate to see good people wasting their time and energy. And there’s perhaps no greater waste of time and energy than seeking to change the trajectory of the human population. It’s not just futile, but also a massive distraction from things we CAN change. This thread seeks to explain why. 🧵1/12
