“I can’t be vegan, I love cheese”

Dairy industry is as evil as meat. No less harm for animals. Does it look natural that calf can’t drink milk so you can taste your piece of cheese? 

GO VEGAN.

dear USAmericans,

VOTING WORKS!!!

French people showed up, French people voted, turnout was higher today than it has been since 1997, and we kicked the far right to 3rd place

a week ago, the far right was the biggest party in France, we were slated for a far right parliament, prime minister, and government

this week, we voted against them en masse and we won!

VOTING WORKS!

you're up next in November! it's very rare we get to say this, but this one time, take example on the French! show up and vote!

because VOTING WORKS!

So. There is some chaos and discussion on what the democratic party in the USA should do. Keep Biden, or replace him with someone else(most likely Kamala Harris).

This is actually complicated, for several reasons. Sure, Kamala is younger, and in a better mental and physical shape and according to some polls she does better against Trump. But on the other hand, according to most polls, she does worse then Biden, the GOP has started their racist and sexist attacks against her, she lack the traditional incumbent advantage(incumbents tend to do better then they are polled to do), and a large part of the centrists and the goldfish swing voters have forgotten how bad things were under Trump.

But whatever the Democratic Party choses to do....please. Just fucking vote blue. If anybody from the USA sees this, vote blue, and save your country from fascism. Just...do this.

If Trump gets four more years he’ll have the chance to appoint 2-4 more justices. That’s thirty more years at least of ultra conservative far right rulings taking away our rights. Look at the damage they’ve done in just the past eight years!

Six judges invented the US monarchy. Just made the shit up.

Interesting how the public has no access to the Supreme Court. You can't see any case. Yet billionaires can bribe the justices for decades.

Follow the money to Republican oligarchs.

I am screaming into the void, but please, to any left winger from the USA who happens to see this. Dont fucking risk global stability, or the environment by voting third party. If you split your votes with Third party candidates, you know who will likely win?

Trump.

And you know what will happen if he wins? These things:

-The Palestinian genocide will continue, with even fewer chances of ending, because Biden at least tried to put a ceasefire.

-The Russian fascists will continue to murder innocent Ukrainians, and continue treatening Central Asia and Eastern Europe.

-Project 2025 will happen, and the USA will slide into actual fascism at worst.

-The Environment will be even wrost affected, and all attempts to mitigate the damage the USA does to the environment will be stopped, thus helping bring out a climate apocalypse.

-Worker rights will be ruined even worse in the USA.

-Fascists around the world will be emboldened.

-So much more shit.

And if you think you can fix this with a revolution, do you have any idea how bloody a revolution will actually be? How many people will die in a revolution, and how much a revolution increases poverty? Do you have any conception of the fact that a revolution can actually fail at succeeding and can be squashed by an army?

Do you have any idea how much less damaging and less risky just voting now is?

This AI art thing is becoming so harmful to artists, and not just in the obvious ways. I keep seeing videos of people picking apart art to prove that it’s AI. They point out mistakes that don’t make sense like incorrect folds or abstract backgrounds. While a lot of these are in fact AI, the mistakes they point out are mistakes real artists make too. Sometimes I don’t draw correct folds or anatomy. Or I make a decision that doesn’t reflect reality because it looks better.

As AI art becomes more and more indistinguishable from real art, artists aren’t allowed to make mistakes or take creative liberties that “don’t make sense” anymore. It completely discourages learning. We’re now being told that computers can make mistakes, but humans can’t. It’s not just our jobs or our art being stolen, it’s our humanity too.

Using Al in history videos makes me want to chew glass. It's lousy enough to use it- but at least source it for what it is. Don't put real pictures about an event next to generated ones and not make any distinction at all. *actually, asking youtube creators to source anything they use is wishful thinking.
