We recorded an episode of @drawingadialogue.bsky.social where remus talked about the AIDS quilt and cartoonists who were involved in AIDS activism, I learned a lot in this episode and it's one I think back on often: comicarted.com/blog/2022/8/...

Last night someone told me I remind them of Rachel Dratch - something about my facial expressions. Would you take this as a compliment?

Starbucks closed their super famous tourist destination Reserve Roastery in Seattle in September with no notice to retaliate against unionized workers. Don’t cross the line! (Plus we never stopped boycotting for Gaza RIGHT? 😇🧐)
Starbucks closed one of the busiest locations in the middle of my campus because it was a unionized spot, the corporation is cutting its head off to spite its tail. Solidarity, don't cross the line!
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Another Cleveland recommendation if you’re looking to donate.
food not bombs cle is accepting donations as well! (this is just my preference bc it’s more community organized and less at the whims of bureaucracy)

My work’s food bank (& others in Seattle) got blessed with funds from the city to help purchase supplemental food for the next two months/until SNAP benefits are restored & it’s really filling our team’s hearts right 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.
