I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Reading the shocked reactions that Apple and Google removed ICE warning apps from their stores, I think that more should probably read about the role of IBM during the holocaust. Can we please finally get rid of the fairytale of social corporate responsibility in big tech?

I still can’t get my head around the fact that _Pentagram_, of all the people, resorted to AI. And then have the brass to be surprised by the backlash.
The whole “there wasn’t a budget” and “we trained the AI with our unique style” doesn’t hold any water

Dear creative people, if some jerks try to get you to work for free in exchange of exposure, give them the finger 🖕 and direct them to this website explaining why you don’t do Spec Work:

No!Spec | don’t underestimate your worth
Spec work is any kind of creative work submitted by designers to prospective clients before designers secure both their work and equitable fees.

Is anyone having problems with Hide my Email service from Apple?
None of my email accounts are working (test returns a message “550 5.1.1 : user does not exist”, but my iCloud account says all are active 🤷♂️).
Also trying a subscription in safari and no option for ‘hide my email’ shows up.
