Here's a quick look at my #portfolio. Obviously, I love magic girls, but I also just love illustrations and digital art as a hobby. #art

the next Philosophy Tube drops on YouTube in August - a BIG one about US history + settler colonialism. Thanks to all my patrons for making it possible!

Please do sign up to the Patreon if you can: in-depth work like this needs crowdfunding to survive 🙏

Philosophy Tube does not and will not use AI at any stage of production; it’s a show made by humans, intended for humans, and crowdfunded by humans 🤖🔨

This is very good.

AI is a tool (sorry!) that people who are bad at their jobs will use badly and that people who are good at their jobs will maybe, possibly find some uses for. People who are terrible at their jobs (many executives), will tell their employees that they “need” to use AI, that their jobs depend on it, that they must become more productive, and that becoming an AI-first company is the strategy that will save them from the old failed strategy, which itself was the new strategy after other failed business models.

The only journalism business strategy that works, and that will ever work in a sustainable way, is if you create something of value that people (human beings, not bots) want to read or watch or listen to, and that they cannot find anywhere else.

“One in three Gazans goes multiple days without eating, the World Food Programme said this week. Malnourished mothers can no longer produce milk to breastfeed their children, the injured are unable to heal and hospitals have run out of nutritional supplements to treat gaunt babies.”

The United States summed up in two headlines.

Headline 1, "Americans are losing spending power, say researchers: Most can no longer afford a 'minimal quality of life.'" Headline 2, "The 10 richest Americans got $365 billion richer in the past year. Now they're on the verge of a huge tax cut."

Uh-Oh! Looks like someone overdid themselves and now has a bad case of the Anti-Mind.

If you see this, post something pink 💗

Illustration of a magical girl knight clad in armour adorning her like feathers. She wields a sword with her pink dragon companion nestled around her.

Sherine, in a city she's never been in, with a dog-bat companion, and all her memories gone.
