kennie jd did a video about kwame kilpatrick and how she hates how much of a feckless, miserable scamming dirty bastard he is and i think that energy captures how i feel about eric adams, down to him attempting to play being attacked for being black as a cover for his feckless bullshit. (2/2)

And sometimes, wanting different & moving different means that instead of insisting that you're just shit at something or that your work is mediocre when someone compliments it, you shut your gob and take the compliment instead of deflecting it. (I am also in this picture.) (4/4)

Some of it was absolutely unresolved trauma and deep mental health struggles, but the most important thing about both of those things is that neither is your fault but they are your responsibility. Comes a time you have to be the one that both *wants* different and *moves* different. (3/4)

I also was once in community with someone who was endlessly, *endlessly* like this and they became extremely tiring & got banned. Extreme learned helplessness white queer type shit where they'd just flop over and say "no I can't do it/I'm forever shit/you're bullying me" at any correction. (2/4)

Yeah like I haven't *seen* anyone on here (today) be weird about this news, which is good (& a plus to me for curating my follows well lol) but I know there are people who are on this protocol who are ready to give him endless shit and just want an excuse. many of whom don't even live in this city

now need $70 for groceries, litter and cat food. please please help 🙇🏼🙇🏼 #BIPOCMA #MAV #MutualAidSky #HelpSky #FundSky 💸💕 bsky.app/profile/stem...

By definition a joke is something the other party can usually recognize is a haha funny goof or has otherwise consented to, the moment you make them think it's real and make them get anxious about it you're out of that territory

Smh. This is why April Fool's Day is no fun (3/3)

Like I know Bluesky has a reputation for people being humorless and all. I've seen it, look at people replying to Gail Simone.

But saying "i love to spread misinformation" when you know a lot of people will take it at face value is some dipshit behavior, no matter who you are or why (2/3)

so, yeah. they're all important.

anyway if you're at magfest & wanna see some cool shit that *is* respectful of the process & human element of making art, the rest of @munitygames.bsky.social is there w/ @arcadecommons.org showing off shootlanzer (5/5)

blacksky.community/profile/did:...

if you use the slop machine, the ethical concern of "you're using stolen work to generate crap" ties into the concern of sidestepping process/human element because you're then demonstrating you don't give a shit about compensating the efforts of others, or the environment b/c of waste, etc. (4/5)

all of those parts are interlinked. even if you commission art for some sort of exchange (money, service trade, etc), it implies you give a shit about the work someone has to do to make the art and want to compensate them for the effort that the process takes (3/5)

someone who is also opposed to ai said to me that they wanted mostly to focus on the ethical & environmental impacts b/c a lot of other arguments focus on parts that are present but less important like sidestepping the process, or the human element, & the thing is, there's no hierarchy there (2/5)

This statement is appreciated, Mayor Mamdani, but like many others in the comments below I firmly encourage your social media team to remain consistently committed to adding alt-text to images that are posted on this site. It will help boost the reach of your message and intent.

Hell yeah, we love to see a mayoral walk (positive)
