I have heard about the recent plans of tumblr. I'll be saying goodbye to the site for this reason, also because of inactivity. See you in my Discord Server | Mastodon | Bluesky | ComicFury. I'll be leaving on March 1st. JKJK

It's Sabo, the unluckiest warrior in the land! 🎲💀 His misfortune stems from a curse after his dad duped a wizard.

Despite this, Sabo remains commited in becoming a hero. ⚔🛡

Ok the US Attorney General says that she will remove ICE if MN drops all our sanctuary laws, complies with ICE, hands over all our SNAP, Medicaid and voter rolls. They demand control over our voter registration so they can "ensure free and fair elections".

They want to control our elections.

I am dead serious people call your representatives. Get volunteering. Get protesting. Get LOUD.

They released a letter full of straight up lies. Spread the truth. MAKE NOISE.

How interesting. How very interesting. They rejected my Blaze of this post.

Well, y'all. Make of this what you will, eh?

Then I guess we'll just have to Blaze it the old fashioned way, eh?

i don't care "it brings good things too" on ai

i don't care "well micorwaves are artificial intelligence too" on ai it's different

i don't care "well the person didn't have the funds to get a real artist" on ai

i don't care.

it's also so humiliating and defeating to be told that in order to tell people why ai is bad, you can't just simply say "because it ruins our environment, was created to harm us Black ppl, to harm children and women and taking people's jobs and also is funded by literal ppl who give said funds to ICE, israel, and cops to keep killing people like us." . instead, i have to only say "it's cause it ruins us artists and it makes it seem as though our art is meaningless or not worth money or it's lame cause it's not "fast"."

how is saying "cause it funds a genocide" NOT ENOUGH???? "cause as Black people, it's used to portray us as criminals. it's what corporations and people in power used to portray Black women as erratic crybabies." NOT ENOUGH?????

what fucking more must i say? what more can i do? cause no, no amount of telling me "put your mouth to your actions" or whatever the saying is will be enough because I HAVE SHOWN MANY THE ART I MAKE I DRAW BY MY OWN GODDAMN HAND. MANY EVEN SEE ME DO SO IN PERSON. WHAT MORE MUST I DO?

they literally let ai be released for us to use, we're literal guinea pigs here. testing shit out so the government can go "okay this needs to be better and seeing that it works, we can use it for our own selfish needs and to paint Black/Brown people as jokes and keep our pedophilia run going." but sure, that's not enough to stop people from using ai. that's apparently "too real" "too mean" "too serious". must i fucking baby someone into not using ai? cause it's not like i'm saying i hate ai just cause i hate it. i give the fucking proof why. i show my art and show people it's all me, not ai. i been showing people i draw it myself since before this shit came out. i been showing it's all me since the first ipad came out. what fucking more must we do?

must we actually start a fucking riot?

Gemini had the fucking GALL to get in my email and summarize a 3-line email, taking up more space than the email did visually.

Hit the “thumbs down.” It’s like, what’s wrong??? Was our summary wrong? Were there offensive words? Thank you for helping us improve our AI tools :)

I selected “other.”

Text box popped up. Please elaborate!

Wrote in “I can fucking read” submit comment

Then had to spend several minutes torching all my settings with a flamethrower. Let me be clear: I’m (a lawyer) notoriously picky with my words FOR GOOD REASON (lawyering) so I overwhelmingly reject Gmail’s “helpful” little assistance. My privacy settings were set to “full paranoia” a little less than a year ago when I saw the writing on the wall and knew public defenders could become a target in the future. Better to lock it all down now.

Gemini had crept in there and turned ALL that shit back on. And showed itself by saying “Jane Doe says she’s so sorry for your loss and offers to reschedule for Thursday at 3” over an email from Jane Doe saying “I’m so sorry for your loss. We could reschedule for Thursday at 3?”

Why would I possibly need this. In what universe would I need this. I have eyes and a brain and a reading speed that twenty years ago was measured at 1500 wpm with full comprehension on dense scientific text. Furthermore! If I read a summary, I’m not reading what they actually wrote. If I’m not reading what they actually wrote, I’m not using my own judgment on the words and phrases that they used.

I literally don’t understand why this is helpful at all. This is just avoidance. Using LLMs to write is specifically Not Writing. Using LLMs to summarize is Not Reading. Using them to make art is Avoiding Making Art. Just READ! Just WRITE! I was not put on this fucking planet to not read and not write and not make art! Avoidance is an anxiety symptom and indulging it gives it more power.

If I had an AI to do my most dreaded task, answer the phone for clients, I wouldn’t use it. Because an AI cannot help them. An AI cannot hear the facts of their case, make appropriate noises, be thoughtful and insightful, and then give them a realistic estimate of what could happen in court. I am unique. I cannot be replaced by machine learning. I have style. I have expertise. I don’t hallucinate unless I’m having a really great Friday night and I’m off the clock.

When I need to outsource tasks from my own brain, I give them to people I know can do them and that I trust to do them right.

Fuck, it just sneaks up on you, doesn’t it?? Goddamn Gemini jumpscare right in my own fucking email
