Someone announced in our class last week that men don't cry and for the first time in my life, I publicly hit back and said, "I do". Many in the class were shocked and didn't believe me, so I explained how I've always cried. When I was young, it was secretly but as an adult, I cry when emotion overwhelms me. I don't see it as a sign of weakness anymore. I think it's a sign of strength to accept what your body needs to do and I feel much better afterwards.

reminder that remote attestation is not acceptable and must not be tolerated

It might be appropriate to call voluntary AI users scabs. Stop feeding the machine dismantling our own labor! There isn't some basic income program. No utopia. Quality hasn't improved. Communities aren't healthier. The world isn't getting smarter.

Instead we have crumbling communities, loss of skill, a terrible job market, lack of trust with almost every interaction online, massive creative theft, and a dying planet. Yeah, these people are scabs.

Someone was watching me lying on the floor.

“These re-interviews are consequential,” a leaked email seen by 404 Media reads.

Okay, I'm new to this, but I've put Giclée prints of 3 of my photos up on a little shop. I chose three that I think would look good hanging on a wall, and one of them actually does hang in my parents' living room. I'm using The Print Space for this if you need to check the trustworthiness of the store.

There are only two types of animals: crabs and things that aren’t yet crabs.

Some of the latest illustrations I’ve done:

I understand the point of this [formerly serious newspaper that has devolved into fluff] profile of #MarissaMayer (former CEO of Yahoo!) may be rage bait, so I am not including a link to it.

But ouf, reading these words (which have been widely circulating online) has been painful, especially as a mom.

You can't think of 3 qualities that make your child special, so you ask an AI Assistant? NO, NO, NO, NO. UNACCEPTABLE.

I imagine Marielle reading this and my heart breaks for her.

Lucy is very touching, affectionate and friendly. She reaches out to people to be petted, but if something is not to her liking, she may show her personal boundaries.

It might be helpful to understand the current tech-capitalist industry like a hostile alien occupier that is terraforming earth for their survival rather than ours.

Traitors to the human race.

Quite windy out there today.

I have a question: If, in theory, I were to offer physical prints of my work, which of the photos would you be most interested in buying?

I hope this email finds you, in this world full of betrayal and misery.

Words cannot express how much I love this chonky little gnome.
