The woman I've been in contact with is finally back, obviously since the shelling began and Israel couldn't help itself but break the ceasefire now they're all on the run again.

Maybe you can donate what you're planning to spend for lunch? She's worth it, I promise

VERY FUN NEWS! ✨

SAG-AFTRA's Game Jam Waiver is now publicly available!!

There's no way I can fit absolutely everything I want to say about it in 300 characters—both about how to use the waiver/why it's so neat + how absurdly grateful I am to the folks who helped make it a thing—but it's SO cool.

Gen AI memes suck

Stop using them

Stop reposting them
Again, please, Generative AI (chatbots, image generators...) demands crazy amount of energy and water and increases carbon footprint.
When you use it, you are not just stealing copyrighted material and looking super clumsy, you are also accelerating global warming.

To conclude: Extremists in the tech industry are weaponizing racism, sexism and transphobia under the guise of "pushing back against wokeness" as a trojan horse for seducing millions of people into voting technofascists into power. The goal is to loot and monetize the collapse of the United States.

So while Amazon Prime hasn't totally purged all mentions of trans identity from its movie descriptions, its algorithm does seem to go out of the way whenever it can to avoid mentioning "transgender" in its plot descriptions, even when the character's gender identity is the central plot point.
