💜Things have been healing since that Scorpio full moon back in May? I can’t explain myself. I just want to keep drawing and painting under the light of a cloudy day. That’s what makes sense to my nerves now.

Last Thursday:

I stopped caring, and everything went just fine. I was on time, had all the time, and was in a better mood. Everything in my head, and on paper, finally started to sound like it should.

💜Tuesday morning, I couldn’t sleep.
💜My sleep schedule had been messed up.
💜Between 4a.m and 6 a.m, I wrote parts of a song and finished two basic designs.

I feel so vindicated and seen.
I’d support the tech if it wasn’t AI and if seeking out predators wasn’t a front for what they are really doing. They don’t care about kids like that.

404 Media obtained a presentation showing some of these AI characters. These include a “radicalized AI” “protest persona,” which poses as a 36-year-old divorced woman who is lonely, has no children, is interested in baking, activism, and “body positivity.” Another AI persona in the presentation is described as a “‘Honeypot’ AI Persona.” Her backstory says she’s a 25-year-old from Dearborn, Michigan, whose parents emigrated from Yemen and who speaks the Sanaani dialect of Arabic. The presentation also says she uses various social media apps, that she’s on Telegram and Signal, and that she has US and international SMS capabilities. Other personas are a 14-year-old boy “child trafficking AI persona,” an “AI pimp persona,” “college protestor,” “external recruiter for protests,” “escorts,” and “juveniles.”

Example of Protest Persona

Alright….
Gotta go to the studio…
Every day, including today, has started with a crazy dream about a high school.
Each day has been wonderful with some insanity, fear and a headache.
PLEASE let today be fun! If it’s going to be unnerving, educational and unforgettable, PLEASE let it be amazing!

The best part about boycotting anything Unilever is that their logo is a like a stamp of a “U” and easy to spot on the back, side or bottom. So you don’t have to remember all their products or how the name is spelled. Just put it down if you spot it like a recall or something.
