KOSA, SCREEN and a lot of US bills are going through a hearing today. Calling the committee and *in your own words* explaining why these impact you negatively would do good.

Was already boycotting Target. Using Chatgpt is already unethical af, so maybe those who use it don't care about ethics and what these companies have done. But anyway I noticed four names: Walmart, Target, Shopify, Etsy. Not surprised about three of those, but Shopify too? Ugh

queer creatives have spent their entire lives surviving out of spite, the idea that you could make some of the most justified haters on earth acquiesce to genAI is delusional.
I've trained my entire life for this, you are like a little fucking baby. I will spit on your name from my deathbed.

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

i’m genuinely so convinced all of this has been a planned operation by the student and her mother (who is commenting on this publicly, and associated closely with the republican party), and big far right propaganda account going all in on it. this is designed to oust trans people from public life

Sure, they've made an environmentally catastrophic mass hallucination disinformation plagiarism Clippy that will destabilize the world, but also their other goal is to replace human workers entirely and let us humans starve. A boycott of AI is the most important boycott of your entire life.
"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."
Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?
Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

FREELANCER TIP: THE 25% RULE!
The MOMENT payment hits your bank account, calculate 25% of the value of the invoice and then transfer that amount immediately to a savings account and DO NOT TOUCH IT. THAT'S FOR TAXES. Then pay yourself the remaining 75%. Account for this when determining rates!!!

if you are a baby fly, you can either have a parent that YEETS YOU AWAY AT MAXIMUM VELOCITY (Sabethes style), or have a dotting parent that feeds you milk and gives birth to you as a single fat maggot that is then safely placed in soil (Glossina style) 🦟🪰

Epic Games sent a DMCA notice to my online stores for my geology-themed design involving a crossed pickaxe and rock hammer that said "PICKS...or it didn't happen" because they asserted that Epic owned all rights to artwork/mention of pickaxes, right before an SVP annual conference. Eric cost me $$$
