Seeing Pasifika people's projects get taken further and further along to wider audiences (or the right audience(s) it was meant for) makes me tear up inside (in a good way) 🥺☺️

I think a big thing I struggle with, and something that is an important thing for people of my generation to attempt to understand, is separating toxic nostalgia from knowledge of the actual ways in which American life has gotten appreciably worse in my lifetime
it’s so weird to look around and realize like, tech and media are materially worse than a decade ago

Everything that was cool is struggling to survive or has become a deranged version of itself

I remember Dawning Realization Month for the NFT people too. Think this is going to take much longer because of how wrapped up the whole economy is in this, but it really feels like it's happening.
Anecdotally on twitter seeing a big shift the last few days from every AI slop account saying every other creative field is “over” and they’re in control now to now posting about how nobody likes them and it’s not fair and they’ll persevere and real artists respect and uplift eachother

This is a very precise reason why talking across the divide often doesn't work. And why I believe so many white people who claim to be doing the work fail, and then rage.
It's the recently moved-to-AP kid struggling in class where all their peers 'just get it' and they're looking 3 chapters ahead.

(3/3) the need to both be aware of and abide horrible people and things until we are hopefully presented the chance to change them and our conversational structure reflects that. To you, these are fresh injustices in a world you expect to be just and you insist on letting it consume you as a result.

Its disappointing when folks such as journalists, writers, editors, etc decide to put an AI photo as the banner to an article because I will not reskeet it or even link if I can avoid it because NO!
Just saw an article sharing Native history but no AI-created image will go past me if I can help it.

Up until last night I have never owned a cardigan sweater in my life, but I recently decided that sometimes I might actually want to wear something warm around the house other than a bathrobe. Here is my Very First Cardigan, and I hope you appreciate the Very Serious Author Look accompanying it.
