Chattel slavery was so bad that when we tell you how bad it in fact was most of y'all shut down and tell us we're making it up and pass laws against us ever telling you how bad it was again because your brains literally cannot handle how bad it in fact was.
"How bad slavery was" is worse. Much worse. Much worse than you think, much worse than you're taught, much worse than museums depict. Worse.

folks need to realize that for fairness w/indie passion projects: if you cannot give the artists a fair wage, the trade off is an open schedule or far smaller workload expectations. They cannot be run like big studios and shouldn’t be if the funds aren’t there.

excitement for particular work is constantly weaponized to depress wages & pit workers against each other

I don't know if it's being sent at random, but I got an email survey from Patreon. And I never miss an opportunity to yell.

It's all about AI.

They very much want to use AI.
They very much want to use your art to train AI.
They could not broadcast more clearly how much they want a piece of that AI

The White House's memes about imprisonment, deportation, and death by alligator are designed to radicalize and desensitize.

“What you have is this desire to get people to buy into the fun of sadism,” says Jason Stanley, an author who’s leaving the US because of “concerns over fascism.”
The official voice of the US government Is cruel, gross, and weird. What is that doing to us?

And don't forget to sign them up for the Imagination Library, which is Dolly Parton's free book delivery service.
They send 1 book per month until the child turns 5. 😊
