Zaboo's FFXIV RP carrd
Contains the essence of Zaboo and who her characters are for roleplay purposes.

I finally started putting together a carrd for all of my ffxiv characters, time to claw inspiration out of the universe to actually work on it. RP is going to make me worse, sorry to everyone that follows me from real life not video games.

Apparently the AI bros are on another round of "Hatsune Miku is AI, checkmate luddites" so this is just a reminder that the singer behind Miku was paid and still earns royalties, and beyond that, Miku is nothing more than a MIDI soundboard with advanced pitch converter options, it is not genAI.

People are in the streets in greater numbers than the first Trump term and party ID is shifting more significantly, and yet the Democratic Party has been considerably more accommodationist
New party identification polling from Gallup this week shows Americans are moving against Trump faster than they did in his first term. Adults were R+4 in 2024, now D+8. That 12-pt drop is 3x the change in the first year of his first term.

Backlash to Trump has been higher in his second term
Gallup's latest data shows Republican party identification down 6 points in Trump's second term — three times the decline in 2017

Saw a lot of headlines saying "wikipedia is embracing ai" being tossed around tabloids, and I'm pretty sure they were maliciously written to make you feel a certain way about Wikipedia. What's actually happening is that wikipedia is demanding payment for data scraping and the corpos don't like that.
Sure. AI companies have ALWAYS been training their models on Wikipedia content, which under the free and open access model is available to anyone — including AI companies. Agreements like these require AI companies to limit and offset the strain they place on Wikimedia infrastructure.
Hoping that @molly.wiki can help explain.

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.
The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.

Another thing I would add is that, especially online, you don't actually know your favorite artist as a person, you know curated bits and pieces. That picture you have in your head of them is always going to be a construction, and that's normal. But it is, at best, a fragment.
If ever there is a lesson to learn about artists you find out being absolute monsters to other people, and your first reaction is to feel conflicted because you 'liked their work', I deeply suggest avoiding putting ANYONE atop a pedastal. Yes, that means your favourite artist.

A Christian mom whose first name means “reborn” & whose surname name is “Good” forgiving her murderer seconds before being executed is the sort of thing that I’d probably regard as a sign if I were disposed to that sort of thing.
We joke about "the writers" being heavy handed, but that they murdered someone with THIS name is an especially big fuckup by an evil administration that needs to be able to control the messaging.
Online and on the streets, protesters are expressing their rage and grief at an ICE agent’s killing of Renee Nicole Macklin Good through art. “In a world full of Trumps and Noems, be Good,” read one protest sign.

A friend of my family was attacked by ICE. I’m linking a GoFundMe for their legal and medical bills.

You need to be willing to plant trees knowing you will never sit in their shade
oldhead advice from an oldhead.
every couple years, newcomers to the movement think "THIS is finally it, the moment when the dam breaks and the whole system is overthrown"
and when it doesn't happen they lose patience and get disillusioned and drop out of movement work
gotta build for long term
