That’s gotta be a phishing scam. They’d have better luck on Twitter.

I’m pretty sure AI only exists because a bunch of people were not, in fact, able to adapt and needed a machine to compensate for their lack of skill. And if one is not willing to put in the work to improve that skill, they’ve already accepted their limitations.

Reminds me somewhat of my mom’s mom and grandma. My adoptive mom’s family is Lebanese and Norwegian, and neither side bothered to write down the steps for recipes. You get ingredients and sometimes quantities if you’re lucky. Different food cultures are really fascinating and kind of beautiful tbh.

Yeah, I’m right there with you. I’d rather wait until everything is on the table, but what’s already there is pretty gross at best.

Happy UK Election Day! The U.S. may or may not be really fucked come fall, but maybe the UK can unfuck themselves a little today. That would be nice.

It feels so nice to just not engage or be engaged with when somebody is being annoying or thinks I’m annoying.

My husband’s family, whom we live with until one of our house offers gets accepted, is in the middle of multiple renovation projects. Which is fine until they neglect to tell us that they’ll be buzz-sawing a corner bathtub apart above our heads at peak work hours.

I really cannot say enough how Biden should immediately launch investigations of all conservative justices, kicking in their doors daily and seizing any assets that might be linked to bribes. The court said he can do it! Genuinely, I think you should!

I couldn't agree with Justice Sotomayor more: "Today's decision to grant former Presidents criminal immunity reshapes the institution of the Presidency. It makes a mockery of the principle, foundational to our Constitution and system of Government, that no man is above the law."

my advice to everyone is just make something analog, doesn't matter what, just create something new with your hands and brain doesn't need to be inspired, doesn't need to be good even- just making something flips switches in your brain and makes life better

I think they’re arguing for taking those individual actions collectively. Like walking out on a shitty job is not as effective as making a collective strike/walk out. I did jump in on one post out of a whole thread, the bigger point was missed on my part.

Hell, I do that every day. Barring special exceptions, no stranger deserves your time and attention, and blocking somebody you don’t know is not personal. You can block me for a little pick-me-up if you like; I just talk about my kids all day anyway.

Also, it’s the same time and effort that goes into a personal page as would go into a published one. But the published one comes with an advance and ongoing income from sales. It’s a huge cost, but that’s ultimately the cost of that work.

I have to wonder how many people would ask Neil Gaiman or somebody to write them a short story, then get mad at the price quote. I’m sure it has happened, but most people understand that writing a book takes time, skill, and exceptional effort. Drawing a book is about the same, if not a bit harder.

If you want to be really mad, consider: PrEP is supposed to be 100% free and bypass any copay or deductible, and yet insurers routinely charge for it and deny appeals, simply because they can.

May I reference this page in the comics class I teach? We do an exercise on abstract comics toward the beginning of class and I don’t have a lot of examples. It’s also just a gorgeous page 💕

I think it probably also helps our in person relationships when we recognize that other people have their own lives and priorities and can’t be available on demand.

You have mentioned loving legos, yes. My husband and my brother do too, so they are also ecstatic about this stage of development and have been feeding more bricks to the toy box just to see how for it will go.
