Would you like to own a charmingly round horse based on the Lascaux Cave paintings? Now's your chance. I have two handmade needlefelt horses for sale on ko-fi. I'd love it if you checked them out or shared this post.

Man my phone battery is trash. I have been awake for two hours. It is at 45%. I’ve been on the phone (like, a call) about an hour of that time and the screen has been on the whole time.

It's worth reiterating - Microsoft's own research indicates that use of generative AI degrades critical thinking skills and erodes confidence in unassisted decision making.
I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance.

Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.
Oh please please i am begging, don't use generative AI for any reason if you can avoid it.

It's being marketed as a quick time-saver, but it's messy, inaccurate, it is putting entire industries of people out of work, and the environmental impacts (energy and water usage) are huge and debilitating.

the reason an MFA doesnt improve your writing is because it cant instill in you the single most important quality for a good writer to have: being an absolute weirdo who really wants to make people understand the perverse undulations of their gremlin brain

Anyone else following for Nevarran - @pundromeda.bsky.social figured out it’s written sort of like a zig zag. I attached an info graphic and some examples.
