genAI is STOLEN WORK. Using genAI in *any* capacity is trafficking in stolen work, supporting the plunder. Period. These facts aren't even denied by the AI companies, they just find ways to make that plunder seem benevolent. Using their product enables that lie. Stop enabling the theft of our work.
"we only use AI for coming up with ideas" no you don't. you use AI to come up with the a bland version of other people's ideas. there is currently NOBODY more replaceable than you

This seems like a good time to remind people of the Marginalia search engine, which is essentially designed to be the anti-google in how it weights and returns results. The old, good internet is still out there. You just have to put in a smidgen of effort to get back to it.

Too bad our industry collapsed and you’ll not get anything like the first two images for a really long while unless someone is coming to our rescue. I know because I literally just talked to Pen, Ian, Rebecca, and Pat yesterday.
Gen Z wants more animation and less sex onscreen, according to a Teens & Screens survey, Variety reports.
Preference for animated content over live-action jumped from 42% from last year to 48.5% this year and nearly 48% of 19-24-year-olds also preferred animated content.

Every WSJ journalist and other journalist who pushed the lie that the shooter was pushing "transgender ideology" is as bad as journalists who pushed anti-Jewish libel in Nazi Germany.
Nazis are openly calling for violence against trans people under the assumption the shooter was trans.

SWERFs can also rest in piss. if you don't support sex workers, if you're prudish, if you're against ~ickyness~, you might be lgbt but you are not queer, and if you're not queer, you're actively oppressing the people who fought, bled, and died for your right to be a milquetoast little tenderqueer.
I stumbled on a video essay that seemed interesting and the creator seemed like a decent, woke young person. Right up to the point Onlyfans creators came up and described them as "making things that should be kept in the bedroom."
