I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there.

Friends -- when you enter a body of water that has a healthy ecosystem, such as Sydney Harbour or any of our beaches, understand that you are agreeing to play by the rules of its inhabitants.
Our healthy harbour has lots of sharks.
I don't even let my dog swim in there for that reason.

My #review of Houses of the Unholy, by Ed Brubaker, art by Sean Phillips. A great exploration of the Satanic panic, mass hysteria, conspiracy theories, and their lasting after-effects, but could have used a stronger ending.

I scanned the sketch, tinted it to sepia tones in photoshop, printed it out on watercolor paper at a slightly larger size (12x16), and got the initial washes of color down. I did color tests in photoshop so I knew how to approach the tones. This is about an hour's worth of painting so far, I think?

I swear this kind of cognitive overwhelm is what smoking a pack a day for the nervous system must feel like. I don’t think we were mean to consume information this way - puppy photos followed by genocide, golden globe interviews interspersed with fascism.

My dystopian feed is golden globe photo of celebrity, protest against fascism, golden globe photo of celebrity, ICE breaking down someone’s door, golden globe interview, Trump saying he’s going to invade Greenland. No wonder our brains are absolutely cooked.
