Did you hear the news? @a15actions is coming around again.

WOULDN'T IT BE INTERESTING if people around the world joined up with their local groups for a mass coordinated blockade of the g3 n0 c1 dal supply chain?

I wonder what would happen?

Hey! So now I’ve worked out how this app works I should probably post an intro! I’m Billy (she/her), I’m an illustrator and just getting started in earnest as a freelancer. I’m interested in art in activism and making the best world we can. I love history, nature, folklore and people.

I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance.

Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.
Oh please please i am begging, don't use generative AI for any reason if you can avoid it.

It's being marketed as a quick time-saver, but it's messy, inaccurate, it is putting entire industries of people out of work, and the environmental impacts (energy and water usage) are huge and debilitating.
