Ok it's been a while and I got enough new followers that a reminder is nice:
Trans rights are human rights, black lives matter, disabled lives matter, stop demonizing people with personality disorders for showing symptoms or die by my sword
Also free palestine while we're at it
Awesome
I would actually go as far as to say that MOST abuse is unintentional. I think most people will go through their lives without ever experiencing intentional abuse. People are abusive because they're selfish, because they're stressed, because they care more about what society thinks they should do than the impacts of their actions on their children and partners, because they think what they're doing is correct, because they've made it make sense in their own heads, because they think they can fix their victims, they think they can fix their relationships, they think they can stop you from leaving, they think they can make you a better partner to them, they think that means you need to do what they want. We've sort of constructed mental illness in a way that doing this shit to other people counts as a form of mental illness because it is anti social behavior in the literal sense— it is behavior that causes social harm.
I don't say any of this to excuse it. I think everyone needs to be more aware of this because if you think abuse has to be intentional you will never realize you are capable of abusive behavior. You will never realize you are being shitty to the people you love, because YOU know what you mean, YOU know you don't mean any harm. But you're doing harm. You need to pay attention to the impact you have on other people, and you need to do it all the time, Especially when you feel least capable of doing so. Sorry! You live in a society. Get your head out of your ass.
This is also important because if you don't understand this you will fail to realize you are in an abusive relationship and/or fail to convey to your loved ones that they are in abusive situations. "My partner can't be abusing me, they love me!" If you think those are mutually exclusive you will rip yourself apart failing to recognize the situation you are in.
hey guys- i’m very sad to share the news that i am no longer a part of drawfee going forward. you’ll keep seeing me around as i move on to new things! but please understand the privacy and difficulty around the matter.
thank you everyone for many fun years, and for your continued support going forward 🫶
Catch me being a modern-day cyberpirate screaming up alongside you on the 405 in my mad max car with half a bitcoin farm's worth of RAM in the backseat as I hack your Bitchless Towyota™ device and steal the boat you're towing right off the back bumper of the tesla your dad bought you
As i roar into the sunset you have to swerve* to avoid the small flotilla of hacked Towyota devices trailing behind me
(*in fact you do not swerve because you're on hands-free driving to go along with your hitch-free towing so you can only watch helplessly as your tesla mistakes your stolen booty for a small child and accelerates crashing into it and killing you instantly)

alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.
we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)
please rb for larger sample size!
Question 1/3
What is your age, and do you feel AI is a net positive or net negative in our lives today?
under 18, AI is a net positive
under 18, AI is a net negative
18-29, AI is a net positive
18-29, AI is a net negative
30-45, AI is a net positive
30-45, AI is a net negative
46-60, AI is a net positive
46-60, AI is a net negative
over 60, AI is a net postive
over 60, AI is a net negative
Question 2/3
How often do you visit or interact with museums/archives (whether in person or online)?
Frequently (multiple times per month)
Often (multiple times per year)
Occasionally (a couple times per year)
Rarely (once every couple of years)
Never :(
Question 3/3
If you saw a museum was using AI in exhibits, marketing, research, etc., would you be more or less inclined to visit that museum?
under 18, more inclined
under 18, less inclined
18-29, more inclined
18-29, less inclined
30-45, more inclined
30-45, less inclined
46-60, more inclined
46-60, less inclined
over 60, more inclined
over 60, less inclined
Thank you for helping with this data collection. Please rb for as big a sample as possible!

This got more traction than I imagined and has motivated me to make a more thorough survey where I can actually parse the data.
No email is necessary to input to complete the survey. Please also consider sharing this off tumblr with people in your life to get a broader sample, especially people who love history and love museums!
Please give your thoughts on Generative AI (such as Sora, ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) usage in museums, archives, and other cultural heritage sit

Yes, we know that to make any possible mild dent in imperialistic power structures all native English speakers alive will first have to become fluent in every other language currently spoken. Why don’t you tell us something whose only viable answer isn’t a self-demonstrating strawman of itself.
When I'm in a putting words in someone's mouth competition and my opponent is a fucking gringo.
"gringos have to learn every single language on earth" is not only not "the only viable answer" to language imperialism, it's also not a position I or anyone is advocating for, and there are counter-arguments I could make here but frankly this ask is so self-evidently stupid that I'm not going to debase myself by engaging with it any further than this.
Actually I'm gonna debase myself a little bit and just a little bit:
It's extremely telling that when you see me point out that Language Imperialism Bad your mind immediately goes to "forcing all anglo pigs to learn every language on earth" as the only answer anyone could ever be advocating for, and the possibility of "not forcing everyone else in the world to learn english if they want to get anywhere in life" doesn't even cross your mind. Really shows who in this equation you see as people and who you see as static background decoration, no?
When a black person states that something you did was racist, chill the fuck out. Its annoying dealing with you panicking trying to dissociate yourself from racism. If you're not black, black people already assume youve said nigga or its variant at least once in your life. If they're interacting with you and bringing something up, its because they want you to stop doing that so they can still interact with you(if ur already friends)
You WILL be racist. You WILL do racist things. You have ALREADY done both. Learn and move on. There's no ideological purity you can hold on to, i promise. Proving you can take the criticism without making it a big deal and practice what you preach is better than any clean slate.
Be the kind of person black people don't have to gamble on. Shut up and lock in
reminder that this is your failing and it's your responsibility to fix it, not the people who actually suffer because of the racism you perpetuate.
this is a great way to let people know that you are not safe to talk to, the entitlement is just fucking staggering.
sigh. you are being racist. let me break it down for you.
the scenario is, as described by a white person, a racialized person being unreasonably angry with them for being racist. under a post saying that you need to not be a crybaby when you get told you're racist. the sheer fact that you not only granted credence to the white person's POV but felt compelled to step up to defend their aggressive ignorance should concern you.
you are extending an enormous amount of grace to the white person in this scenario while also excusing them from doing the same for the racialized person in the scenario.
racism isn't just fucking running around in klan hoods burning crosses, it's a shitload of unconscious biases that you have to work to unpack and unlearn. you have more work to do
