What the tech bros and; generative AI "fans" fail to understand is that the actual PROCESS of creating art is the fun part - NOT just the finished product......

I have been both encouraged and absolutely disgusted with some comments online this week about #autistic people from neurotypical "adults"
Why do so many think they have a "valid opinion" about MY DISABILITY?!....
Neurotypical people can keep their "opinions' about #autism to themselves.

According to neurotypical people, autistic people like me are a 'problem' that needs curing or whatever else bullshit they think about us......yet last time I looked all the idiots currently destroying this world are neurotypical (I don't include Musk in the autistic crowd as he's just a cunt)

Well, good to see them actually trying to talk and make a compromise instead of just leaving Kimmel in the dark or kicking him to the curb.
Disney execs and Jimmy Kimmel are meeting today to discuss the future of his show.
The parties will discuss whether there’s a way to have Kimmel’s show return.

Opinion | Benjamin Netanyahu and News Corp want you to think he's a fearless protector of Israel. In fact, he's a thin-skinned man-child who has previously helped enable Hamas, writes Bernard Keane.
Netanyahu proves he's a thin-skinned, genocidal man-child — and that News Corp is a foreign propaganda outlet
The Israeli prime minister poses as a tough guy, but criticism reduces him to a quivering jelly of rage. It's no surprise he went to News Corp to vent.

‘Blue’s Clues’ host Steve Burns is launching a podcast for adults called ‘Alive.’
The podcast is described as continuation of the beloved kids’ show, that will tackle adulthood and “what it means to stay human in a complicated world.”

If you told me that traveling and chasing rockets with some "random Aussie" aircraft mechanic I met online would lead to creative collaboration 15 years later...
So proud of her, and thrilled to make my voice acting debut!

Happy 200th anniversary of Michael Faraday discovering benzene. He called it bicarburet of hydrogen. I would recommend staying away from this substance unless you’re a chemist or are involved in chemical manufacturing.
But it’s great for art!

Today is 200 years since Faraday's discovery of benzene! I made these hexies for a maths community quilt (with the maths being in the bond lengths of single and double bonds and the aromatic structure). I don't believe ever got made, so it's nice to have an opportunity to post a picture of them! 🐡

Unfortunately when art imitates life and vice versa....
And good people standing by doing nothing because they "don't want to get involved" in their little "safe spaces" is just another word for cowardice
