Hello! I know a lot of my followers are from the west and I would like to ask that if you have money to spare, please commission some Filipino artists right now that are doing commissions for a cause to help fund the repairs from the recent (and upcoming) super typhoons.

Links to them in replies!

Found this on TikTok and it made me emotional ❤️

Artists create universes from nothing.

Being an animator is an intimate understanding of life, environments, physics, what it MEANS to be alive, and the ability to convey the beauty within our world in seconds.

Everything in animation, from the roughest sketch, to the beautiful backgrounds, is done with intention. People pour the tears from their minds eye into each frame, and I can't express how much every part of it is human experience. It is layers upon layers upon layers of choices and interpretations.

I know many of us are tired, scared & angry. When you can, if you can, channel that into doing what you can to help. Every day it's more clear the only ones who are going to save us ... are us.

Whenever you start to say "people should do x," it's you. You're "people." We're "people." It's just us.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Art is just so fucking cool. I love scrolling my feed here and seeing piece after piece of what feels like the true universal language of humanity. Even if we don't share the same words you can draw a picture of something that matters to you and I will feel it in some way. I love that connection.

The reason they fight so hard, loud, crazy, lying at every opportunity, exaggerating everything until it makes no sense - is that they know if they lose, they’re going to prison. We have to make sure they go there.

„That‘s so mean of u, how dare you say we should bully tech bros„

No. We’ve collectively been too kind for too long. This is how we got into this mess. How we got into many messes. This is a voluntary decision they make to be antisocial and they deserve to be shunned for it. Shove them in a locker.
I’ve been saying we need to bring bullying back.

Using GenAI images for an article on “labor” feels shamefully hypocritical, I’m sorry (not really) but you don’t get to act morally righteous when using a tool that STEALS LABOUR, its a complete betrayal of principles.
“Since 2018, labor columnist Kim Kelly brought the labor beat to teenage readers through her “No Class” column, covering everything from wildcat strikes to general strikes, the Gilded Age labor organizer Mother Jones to contemporary Amazon warehouse conditions.” 💔 thisislaborwise.com/teen-vogues-...
Teen Vogue's Closure and the Quiet Defunding of Worker Consciousness
Teen Vogue’s shutdown marks more than a media loss. This is a warning about how profit-driven consolidation quietly dismantles worker awareness and voice.

when I was a kid and ads played on TV my father would outright leave the room until they were done, which when he got lazier he'd just change the channel for 2 minutes to find literally any other one that wasn't in commercial

I found it ridiculous back then but I totally get it now dad

Growing up we always muted commercials.

One day, watching TV at a friend’s house, I muted the commercials. Everyone stared at me in horror and someone actually said, “Why would you do that?!” like I just threw paint on their furniture.

So that’s how I learned how propaganda works as a 10 year old.

Yes! Most people's experience with AI is not "a very tedious, data-heavy, repetitive process that if automated could vastly improve the quality of my work and job."

It's "mom sending me fake videos of riots in her neighborhood, she's scared to go outside" or "trump shits on protestors."
Even if you think, like I do, that AI has a lot of cool potential uses, that’s a very understandable reason why a lot of people get angry whenever it’s brought up right now.
