Edit: this poll is getting a decent amount of attention so please know the headless horseman is not original and was stolen from hello from the hallowoods, if you like the idea of a headless horseman tending to a graveyard go listen to the audio drama.

new video circulating of an israeli soldier having broken into a palestinian family’s home and going through the wife’s intimates while degrading and slut-shaming her for… wearing underwear? owning lingerie to share with her husband? i don’t understand what his disgust was about considering he feels none at all at being a genocidal psychopath who celebrates, if not partakes in, inflicting all kinds of abuse and torture. maybe the fact that palestinians are normal people? who have relationships? maybe it’s jealousy because he knows will never have a loving relationship, who knows. and quite frankly, who cares.

the point is that it is literally an intrusion into one of the most personal aspects of palestinians’ lives. it is another act of defiling and tarnishing everything and anything palestinians hold dear, like all the other iof soldiers proposing and announcing marriage dates amidst the rubble of the palestinian homes they destroyed, israeli celebrities and soldiers signing missiles and bombs to be dropped on palestinians with ‘good luck!!!’s and birthday dedications, israeli settlers singing and dancing to lyrics promoting genocide, israeli soldiers laughing as they detonate bombs in mosques and other buildings, planting israeli flags on schools they bombed.

every step an ‘israeli’ takes on palestinian land feels like a personal physical violation, even to me, a non-palestinian. and then people question why palestinians resist. they have been being violated like this, physically and psychologically, for over 75 years.

cw. boothill x f!reader drabble, riding (but really he’s the one in charge), piv penetration, cyborg dick, a hint of dacryphilia perhaps, this is seriously just some major brainrot im having please help, minors dni pls and ty :)

cold metal bites into the supple flesh of your hips.

it’s a stark contrast to the heat your body radiates, icy fingertips clutching you tightly as boothill guides you along his dick, sinfully dragging against the fluttering walls of your pussy.

“ridin’ me so well, cutie. you like being used like this, huh?” sharp teeth graze the sensitive skin of your throat before he laughs, deep and condescending. “i’ll make sure you’re satisfied. can’t have you doubtin’ me again, can we?”

you’re too fucked out to even answer. boothill’s strong hands force you to bounce on his ribbed metal cock, drawing whines and mindless babbles from your lips as you slump against him. your hands pull and tug at his silky hair while you plead, “hol’on, waaait, s’too much..!”

it’s honestly your fault that you’re even in this situation. you had teased boothill about his cyborg body—“you get a dick attachment with that robo-body or what?”—and now you’re paying the price.

“too much now?” boothill sneers, sharp teeth glinting in the low lights of the room as he looks at you. his red pupils drink in your debauched expression, the way sweat beads at your temple and drips down your face.

he suddenly slows, grinding his hips up in to yours as he drags a hand up the slope of your body, leaving a trail of icy nerves in its wake. he grips your face, squishing the fat of your cheeks. silvery tears of pleasure line your lashes, something boothill smugly takes note of. when a tear trickles down your cheek, he’s immediately leaning forward to lap it up with his tongue.

“thought you said i wouldn’t be able to keep up with the real thing. you so sure about that now?”

your attempt to shake your head is stopped only by the way he grips you. he leans in, nipping at your plush lower lip before he continues.

“i do love a challenge, though.” his voice is rough, tinged with heated desire as he grinds his dick further into you. “am i proving ya wrong, sweetheart?”

“yes,” you whimper, thighs trembling as he kisses you, long and deep. boothill moves his hand back down to your waist and takes up his earlier pace, using you almost like his own personal fucktoy.

“that’s a good girl,” he drawls. “let me take care of you, yeah?”

please don't repost on other platforms. rbs and comments are super appreciated ♡ !!

Hey look. Obviously it goes without saying that Israel's invasion of Palestine is horrible. But saying the people living in Israel are just as bad is fucking stupid.

I think it's extremely interesting how people call Israel the "only democracy in the middle east" but somehow at the same time it's not a "reflection of it's people" I need you to explain to me how you think democracies work. Israel is a settler colonial state and its policies are in fact a significant reflection of Israeli society. To think otherwise is extremely fucking stupid. HERE is a poll from earlier this year (Jan 2024 Peace Index) where 88% of Jewish Israelis who believe that the Palestinian deaths (25,000 at that time) were "Justified" HERE is a poll from Feb of this year where a majority (67%) of Israelis were against the establishment of a Palestinian state. Btw all these polls were conducted by Israeli institutions themselves but if you don't have the capacity to do your own research, happy to further educate you. Putting all the blame on the Israeli government misses the point. It disregards the fact that Israelis have long advanced, enabled, or come to terms with their country’s system of military occupation and dehumanization of Palestinians. These patterns of violence aren't some anomaly, they're deeply rooted in its society. Also it completely ignores how this violence is deeply tied to the ideology of racial superiority and a desire to uphold a segregated socio-political system. Honestly you're way too uninformed to be this confidently stupid. Imma need you to either shut the fuck up or do some research before coming back into my inbox.

What is your opinion of AI? Personally, I think that like any technology, it depends on the user and their intentions, but that is just me.

What about you?

1. Theft

The most central issues with AI as it is now is that the programs were trained/are trained with STOLEN art. Stolen visual art, music, writing, etc.

The vast majority of what it has been fed is stolen. As in, the artists behind the work were not ever given the chance to consent nor be compensated for their works being used to feed the machine.

This reason alone is straight up copyright infringement and the optimist in me does believe the long arm of the law is gonna shut these programs down for that. But the long arm of the law is looooooong, and the technology is disrupting people’s livelihoods now. Unlike robots or machinery that was invented and built to expedite assembly line/factory work, this technology is only functional by using other people’s labor. If we didn’t live in a society where you have to “earn” your right to live in it, then this would still be wrong, but it probably wouldn’t be such an existential problem.

There are active class action lawsuits for infringement of copyright. And the private sector has begun filing suits and I’m quite certain they’ll win because again—it’s simply theft. These companies did not make licensing contracts, they’re not paying royalties to the artists they stole from.

So if you consider using ai that generates “art” (whether it is visual, music, writing, etc.) please consider stopping immediately, as you would actively be benefiting from theft (which is wrong imo!!!!)

2. AI in its present form dishonors the human spirit

In my personal relationship with AI technology, I do not use it to generate ideas or ‘art’. I detest the notion to use technology in that way tbh. AI is a form of technology, so it’s difficult to break it down into every specific use it actually has. But here’s an attempt; no to generative AI, okay to certain AI.

There are kinds of AI programming in the programs I use (such as features that help you color in a shape quickly or make a perfect circle). This is useful tech (that requires zero IP theft) and I like it because it helps me by taking care of tedious tasks so that I have more time to spend in the creative and drawing processes. But I still choose the colors, I still draw the images, I still write the stories.

I think the way AI is used right now with a focus on “creative thinking” (where it’s not actually creating anything it’s just churning out other people’s *stolen* ideas and practice) is a total waste. AI being used as an assistant to help humans find information easily can be/has been swell. And requires no theft :D

But for whatever reason (greed, capitalism are my guesses), tech companies are leaning into a direction to replace creativity with AI?? I imagine the people behind this view the practice of art as tedious work because it is challenging??

But the beauty of art and the practice of it is that it allows humans to experience and overcome challenges with little to no stakes.

When society determines that is not a valuable use of human time, then I think we’ll all be significantly more miserable. If we allow a machine to be “creative” and leave us to only experience challenges with stakes—like survival (rent, putting food on the table).

So here are some examples of how I feel about AI uses;

AI to translate languages, find resources, discern malicious malware/spam from harmless messages > 👍🏽

AI to generate ideas/art for you > 🤢 Why??????? Why would you want that…that’s the most exceptional part of the human experience and you relinquish it to a bot trained on stolen ideas? 😭
