this crystallizes why, despite truly heroic solidarity and activism, i can’t quite get in the “we’re going to win” mindset right now. the harm is so active and there’s so much violence we don’t even know about. people are being turned into ghosts.

I just read an early copy of a graphic novel that is out next week and y'all...this is a VERY special comic.
Even though it's only January, this is best of the year worthy and will be very hard to top for me.
I'll come back to this once it's out.

Pushing gen ai as something that’s unavoidable when they actually just want to benefit from its current pervasiveness, and justify it to their users is the bullshit all these businesses are peddling, and I just hope there’s enough pushback to show all of them that it’s not the move.
