People should stop fetishizing Native American images at Thanksgiving. Celebrating colonization of Indigenous people by Europeans perpetuates the myth of the "first Thanksgiving". Educate.

Kirakosian: We have this Border Patrol agent and he’s literally in his pajamas… he takes it upon himself to march down the street to confront these kids. And then he confronts our client and he points his loaded firearm directly at the 17-year-old…

Hatred is caustic, abrasive, and painful, and those who live in it have been hurt, damaged by experience and those who taught them it was a viable emotion to live by.
We need to bring more Love. It's vulnerable, embracing, and a cure.
Don't live in hate. Exist in love. Teach love. Show it. ❤️

I support artists who create from their own talent, putting their own training into it, not people who write prompts for AI to generate what they call "art" and promote it as such.
This goes for writers as well.
No AI art or writing. It's not creative.

Rumors are circulating...and reported on MSNOW that Pete Hegseth has been pulled OUT of any negotiations regarding Ukraine.
He is unprofessional, unqualified...and frankly...a laughing stock.
I would not be at all surprised. Nor would I be surprised if he was fired...eventually.
You?

What Pam Bondi and Lindsey Halligan did was not incompetence--It was intentional misconduct. They both must be disbarred. My new article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/what-pam-b...

Alaska vowed to resolve the murders of Indigenous people.
But when one nonprofit asked state law enforcement officials for a fundamental piece of data — a list of Indigenous murders they’d investigated — the state said no.

Alaska Vowed to Resolve Murders of Indigenous People. Now It Refuses to Provide Their Names.
When the nonprofit Data for Indigenous Justice filed public records requests with the Alaska Department of Public Safety concerning cases it had investigated, the state rejected them.

I had a guy DM me here after following, "What are you into?" so I replied, "Conversation, with a little witty banter, discussion of a good book or art, with someone who knows how to communicate."
His response: "🙄"
That says it all, I guess.

The targeting of Mark Kelly isn’t politics...it’s the sick new normal created by a movement that can’t win arguments, only intimidate. When public servants become targets, freedom isn’t next in line… it’s already in danger. Fortunately, the outrage is intensifying rapidly.

Writer friends, have you ever been writing a scene in your story with reckless abandon for a while, motivated to all get out, and then suddenly—the moment you hit Enter after a certain sentence—all the motivation to continue just comes to a screeching

Too many times, people use age as a metric for ability, intelligence, and even attractiveness.
We older folk have done more than people think, are smarter than people realize, and we're beautiful.
Those who don't see that are just sad... and jealous.

If you are posting AI art, (a) you're not an artist (b) if you wrote the prompt, you're basically someone who is okay scraping the internet for real artists' work to make something you can share.
There are thousands of artists in the world we can support. People who actually do the work.
