it's really bleak to think about bisan winning a peabody and now an emmy tonight for her reporting like yeah with one hand the american elite are giving her awards for her fearlessness and bravery in the face of unspeakable horror and with the other hand the american elite are the ones sending the bombs and the rest of american journalism and media as a field are constantly actively manufacturing consent for the genocide that forces her to keep getting in front of a camera to say it's bisan from gaza and i'm still alive. something something liberals don't believe in politics anymore just in bearing witness to suffering, except the suffering is something they are actively creating. just horrific dystopian shit

Honestly? Shoutout to those of you who are completely fucking lost in life. Those who don’t know what they want to do with life. Those who are stuck in a certain part of life and can’t get out. Those who are reaching for dreams they feel are impossible to reach. Those who feel like they’re accomplishments are being overlooked. Those who feel like their enough just isn’t enough. It is. You can make it. You will make it. There is an opening at the end of the tunnel.
"Hey how is it going?"
Expect Israel's bot army to be extra active in the coming days and weeks, and not just on Tiktok
By making pro Palestine posts, you're making a difference
Please support my family. They are very far from reaching their goal.
For the first time, winter has become a heavy nightmare instead of a season of rest and tranquility. In these fragile tents that barely withstand the wind, the cold and rain have come to expose their weakness and deepen our suffering.
Last night, we were completely flooded. The ground beneath us turned into a pool, and the rain pierced through the tent, relentlessly falling on our heads. The children shivered from the cold, their small hands desperately seeking warmth amidst soaked blankets. I tried my best to wrap them in my arms, to create a sense of safety in the midst of this fear, but everything around us kept getting worse.
As if wars and destruction weren’t enough, winter has come to complete the harshness of our conditions. The rain seeps through mercilessly, and the cold paralyzes us. Yet, we will endure. We have no choice but to endure, but the situation worsens day by day, and we don’t know what tomorrow will bring under these cruel circumstances.

@amal.jamaludin
if you don't think ai "art" and i use that term very loosely isn't dangerous, just remember that there are fake nudes of celebrities and there was an ai made ad running in the superbowl while Rafah was being bombed to the nines.
y'all realize that instead of using ai for good, people are using it to fabricate lies, to steal from, humiliate and dehumanise others, right? right.
so don't ever come on my blog chirping high praises about c.ai or ai generated images. not when fanfic writers and small time artists are getting less and less appreciation for their hard work while "c.ai inspired" fics and "ai generated" images are taking all the spotlight (when they really shouldn't because it's been stolen). not when writers are being put out of jobs. not when voice actors aren't being taken seriously and are also being put out of jobs. not when artists' work is being stolen and being mass produced into soulless pictures. not when a dead artist's work should be left alone but some dude put their unfinished project(s) into an ai art generator to finish their project when it, again, as i've just said, should've been left the fuck alone. not when people (regular people and celebrities alike) are having fake nudes of their pictures being put out there for the world to see without their knowledge and consent.
and especially not when governments are paying millions of dollars to make ai generated ads about "bringing dads home" while dads (and moms, sons, daughters, their pets and their plants) are being senselessly killed.
so no. i don't wanna hear shit about ai. not until we stop killing our own humanity with it and claiming that it's good.
