I totally get curiosity, but I can't fathom artists giving up & giving in to AI solely- I know i have issues drawing for fun lately, it's hard, but if i lost the ability to draw, I'd be crushed, all the color of life would fade away- this stuff is not a real or adequate replacement

Literally my internet/youtube experience is literally assuming more than 50% of the stuff i see is fake shit- this was already a flaw of the internet but wow, no one actually cares and it's getting worse

Again, assuming half the stuff i see is fake cannot be good for the brain, or anyone's brain

I think it says so much that in the vid Dolly Parton released where she was like "Don't believe that AI picture that's floating around on me in my deathbed" i literally had to look up that that video itself wasn't AI, literally can't tell anymore

There's no way that this is good for the psyche

i mean 1930 LT was already publico domain but shhhh

Also All Quiet, despite its old quirks (German soldiers with yankee accents) is actually quite brutal and effective, it's haunting
Hell's Angels is fun for the insane stunts and production, and Betty Boop canonically started out a furry

Ngl the next public domain day is getting me pretty excited, it's 1930's time, baby- just in time for the next depression! (jk(?))

Best Picture winner All Quiet on Western Front, Howard Hughes' warplane epic, First appearance of Betty Boop, and the first slew of Looney Tunes cartoons, too

Buried in Michigan's antiporn bill is a provision to effectively outlaw "circumvention tools," such as VPNs.

Mark my words: legislators will increasingly leverage porn panic to restrict or ban VPNs, and to limit internet privacy far beyond adult sites.

Experts raise privacy concerns over Michigan bill targeting pornography and VPNs

Rep. Josh Schriver, the bill’s sponsor, says the law is designed to target only producers and distributors of pornography, not everyday internet users.

KOSA just got a bunch of new cosponsors so, y'all, kindly tell them to knock it the fuck off.
Make this bill unpassable for the sake of keeping the open internet, enough of this censorship BS and "protect the children" excuses.

Like I'm certainly not going to pretend the past was glorious at all, I'm not nuts. There was lots of hurt in these/our communities- but none of this stuff ever HURT us, It only made the country more united & better, and no, POC, Female and Queer service members are not, & never have been "problems"

Wally the rainbow artist 🌈🇵🇷 @wallyaurora.bsky.social · 11d

Also it's wildly amazing that people actually believe that increasing civil rights *hurts* the USA, it's like yeah man, remember when we gave women & Black & Queer folks voting rights & greater free expression and then we lost WWII & the Cold War?

Except, no: you're just too fragile for reality

I hope this year if anything shatters the Cold War lie that loose big business & enterprise are fully linked with democracy- They Aren't. they're never to be trusted with freedom & free speech, ever. Their spines are more fragile & weak than my scoliosis ass when it comes to a breeze of resistance
