Reminder that, unless a creative freelancer has a spouse with a day job that offers health insurance, they likely have an ACA plan. And with the hits to creative industries the past few years, I'm guessing many qualify for subsidies.

Related reminder that comic creators are freelancers.
The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Visual Arts Now!
OpenAI pirated large numbers of books and used them to train models.

OpenAI then deleted the dataset with the pirated books, and employees sent each other messages about doing so.

A lawsuit could now force the company to pay $150,000 per book, adding up to billions in damages.

very happy about democratic Ws rn but i think now is the right time to suggest bringing back court jesters in the form of city/state jesters so that people who have the urge to vote based on a funny or amusing vibe can be sated without voting nimrods into positions of consequence

This is like what I’m trying to say about big studios that were cancelling the animated shows you might love and wonder why they didn’t give it more seasons. It had nothing to do with what you think it was about, like it wasn’t about numbers or prestige, or even caring etc.
It’s not ever about the numbers—you can bring insane audience engagement, views, eyeballs to your verticals, shape the conversation in wonderful ways, win awards and on and on

And they still will nuke your job and your entire desk in the name of capital consolidation and kissing the fucking ring
