PSA to avoid Uline like the plague for your packaging needs.
Clearbags has every specific bag and board you could want and there’s also good old BCW for comic & art sleeves on Amazon.

Much of the cardboard and paper goods strewn about our homes are sold by a single private company, with its name, Uline, stamped on the bottom.
Many may not know that a multibillion-dollar fortune made on those ubiquitous products fuels far-right candidates across the country.

A previously unreported boom in profits for the shipping supply giant Uline has provided the funds for a deeply conservative Midwestern family to bankroll anti-democracy causes around the country.

And for those who do cite fake papers, just think: this is then in your paper forever. Will it be discovered when you're up for tenure or a job? Will your kid find it out when they read your work to see what their parent did all those nights and weekends?
Do not cite an academic paper unless you’ve read it
AI Is Inventing Academic Papers That Don't Exist -- And They're Being Cited in Real Journals
Academic articles from authors using large language model are creating an ecosystem of fake research that threatens human knowledge itself.

Thanks for adding so many great organizations to the starter pack!
Behold: the first-ever list of news outlets that have banned generative AI in their reporting. As of today, this is literally information that you cannot find on Google.
My goal is to fill the starter pack, so please send over suggestions with supporting evidence!

We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier.
Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder.

It's so easy to just. not use gen AI 😐
The theft and environmental damage is, of course, impossible to ignore, but even putting that aside, there has never and will never be anything in my life that could possibly be made easier by gen AI

How about everyone cancel their subscriptions like they did when Kimmel was removed from his late night show? It would probably make a difference like last time.
Disney and OpenAI sign a deal to bring 200+ Disney characters to Sora

Please check in with folks. I know a lot of folks who are holding on because they are keeping their heads down but .. it's being connected to each other that keeps us afloat.
