@hammancheez @manicbanjo Ironically, that's the opposite of both-sides-ism. It's actually the explanation for how this happened - people whose identify revolves around being "centrists" have not stopped to consider what each party actually stands for, or that the Republican Party since Reagan has dragged the whole US Political spectrum way to the right by being progressively more and more crazy.

@lowqualityfacts very relatable, only the bush is on fire and flood waters are rising up the stone wall below, getting a little higher every year.

@tiffanycli #AI tools aren't inherently bad but unfortunately the people utilizing them are. They're being used to stampede over artist copyrights, generate and flood the market with tons of generic/formulaic fiction, and enrich a handful of techbro billionaires at the expense of working artists. The last is true of most new tech, but I think the current suite of AI tools is an extreme example. I can't agree with supporting these tools until the misuse is extricated from the tech.

@tiffanycli I mean, just watch #MidJourney's CEO casually disavow interest in the art copyright issue like an all-white brunch squad that "doesn't get into politics"... as he rakes in millions while trampling small time artists into the dust with a copyright-eating behemoth. Starts around minute 14: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sqa8Zo2XWc4

Hey there Mastodonians. I could use a hand.Last week I lost my #job for the third time THIS YEAR: once to a bankruptcy, once to a toxic CEO, and again last week due to an acquisition by a parent company that eliminated my position. My background is in #solar #sales #leadership though I also have high writing proficiency (including a master's degree in creative #writing). Can you pass this around and reply if you have any job leads? I have 0 runway left at this point.

Wow, thanks to everybody that's boosted this. You guys are incredible <3. I should have mentioned I'm in the US, despite my German last name and the .de instance. I live in the Midwest, but happy to relocate for the right role. Have worked remotely for the last three years, which is preferred but not required.
