I've been disconnected from my military service for a while, and I am looking forward to organizing with @vetsaboutface.bsky.social to use my experience as a veteran to help current military members find ways to resist a continued fascist takeover and unjust/immoral orders.

What Do We Say When the Soldiers Come?
"There is no honor in this mission," says counter-recruiter Rory Fanning.

On the left, my image. On the right, the Al image that was clearly trained on, and designed to plagiarize, my image.
All Al generated imagery is inherently theft. It's unethical, environmentally disastrous, and does irreparable harm to both artists and society.
