Not at all shocked. It takes as much time—if not more—to fix the issues with AI work as it does to just do the work myself. I’ve found few instances that create real efficiency, and the efficiencies do not outweigh the drain on resources. www.entrepreneur.com/business-new...

Women don’t wait for change, we make it. We’ve broken barriers, made history, and fought for justice every step of the way. Today, we honor the women who came before us and keep pushing for those who will come after. The fight isn’t over. Let’s get to work.

So far, the only thing I miss about TikTok is the sense of community. I’d loved checking in on my friends’ gardens and crafts, which is pretty damn wholesome. Unless there’s something they’re not telling us, why is the government trying to rob us of community?
