Tankies aren’t communists anyway. They’re Russian trolls, CCP shills. Those are fascist dystopias. Just mention Ukraine being invaded and they go ballistic.

Lol lemmy has a Tankie problem but they’re being drowned out. They get mad because they can’t just own the libs I guess!

And I’m a unicorn. You can call yourself anything you want but it doesn’t make it true.

Nothing communist about a tankie

Tankies aren’t communists. It’s like saying Trump is a LGBT supporter.

These aren’t leftists. They’re trolls.

Because people aren’t familiar with them and need to be made aware of what they really are. Too many people don’t see the damage these trolls cause because they get blocked and only see the complaints and I’m realizing that defederation has worked in their favor. If anyone actually read the shit they post they would realize they are conservatives trying to make the left look like psychopaths. They appropriate LGBT and other social justice causes in order to attempt to infiltrate the left and rot it from within. Also, they use liberal as a slur.

Maintaining the status quo is what keeps humanity from progressing. Slavery was acceptable and still is in many places, except for where the status quo was challenged. Having kids should no longer be the status quo and it won’t be long until civil rights catch up to the abusive nature of being created without consent.

Except it’s a choice.

I didn’t chose to be born nor did I chose to be a child. I have the right to be irritated though by other people’s mistakes. It is completely OK not to make humans. We are not just mindless beasts only good for reproduction. People have a right to find people’s poor life choices distasteful, lie smoking cigarettes and doing drugs.

Makes me think that a lot of these people are pissed off that those who can’t afford or just don’t give a shit about being sentenced to parenthood for life won’t have anyone to exploit when their kids grow up. Also misery loves company. People get really angry when they realize their life didn’t have to end that way and that they actually had a choice so to validate their mistakes they shame and try to push others who didn’t into the same so they can say “there, you see? There really isn’t any other choice”

Lol I end up using my PTO as sick time except the now our policy only allows 4 sick days and we lost our point system and instead get fired after the 3rd occurrence. If I weren’t WFH I’d have to find another job because I can’t make it out the door most days. Also it still eats up my PTO to have an absence. I haven’t had an absence in almost 2 years and I’ve had to work with migraines and running to the bathroom. Next month I have scheduled most of it off but I’ll be recovering from work and sleeping lol. I don’t need this job as we don’t have kids so we’ve saved up plenty to live off of but the lack of health insurance would be problematic, though not sure that paying 400 a month for it right now isn’t actually worse for what I get. Good thing I’ve got dual citizenship and can escape to Europe anytime I want lol! Just not back to Italy… our Healthcare system may be free but the quality is atrocious. But if the US pulls its head out of its ass and decides to actually care to improve itself I’m all for it. As it is right now it’s just creating tired insane violent idiots.

Atomic barbie and my phone is jabrone

It is weird. I love this stuff. It can be so useful and would love a game with interactive npc. Also really fun tools to brainstorm with.

As long as I’m wfh it can snow all it wants

Considering most people only see the meat it makes sense. Most people have no idea what they fish itself looks like.

Definitely should forsake technology and get back where we belong. Lions and dolphins have to rough it out, why are we acting like we have the right to just not die of sepsis?

Depends. If you just let the camera swing and let it randomly shoot then it isn’t. If youre framing it and composing it that’s your work. But no just putting a camera on a cat and letting it randomly take pics isn’t your work.

As someone who creates a variety of art in pretty much any medium I find AI art to be something deep and subconscious in us. It taps into something we can’t reach unless on mind altering drugs. I find it to be an amazing study of the human psyche. I have never been able to connect to most “art” especially any of the classical stuff, as well as most music. While people enjoy and even request certain pieces of art from me, all but sculpting leaves me disconnected from my work because what I visualize and what create aren’t thr same. AI art has that missing piece.

If someone dumps paint on a surface and let’s gravity do the work it’s the same thing. If someone ties paint buckets to dogs and let’s them run it’s the same thing. When all you do is initiate the process and let another force make the creation it shouldn’t be. If your can’t replicate it yourself then it isn’t your work.
