Voting for Democrats is the "leaving the house, getting some exercise, and drinking more water is good for your mental health" of societal change. Everyone keeps telling you to do it, worst of all your mom keeps telling you to do it, and it's not a magical cure-all, but it actually works and rotting in your room shitposting does not help in either scenario.
Also like mental health, voting doesn't solve the whole problem! But if you aren't doing this bare minimum thing, the other tools you have aren't going to work as well as they should either. If you get medicine and continue rotting in your room shitposting, you will probably still be miserable. If you get a union at work but don't vote for politicians who support unions, the union won't be able to advocate for its members as effectively and work will still be miserable.
Voting is maintenance. It's like doing the dishes or cleaning the leaves out of the gutters. You're never going to get to a point where you are Done and Never Have To Do It Again (alas,) because time will continue to pass and you will continue to eat meals and the trees will continue to drop leaves into your gutters and right wingers will continue to submit bad bills to every session of congress.
You'll never be done with maintenance. But if you don't do that maintenance, your situation can and definitely will get Worse

Hello! I come with some good news! In the EU, a law has been passed restricting generative AIs (particularly ones that pose a high risk). I hope other areas in the world follow suit, but this is huge! It'll take a while to be applied as well, though this is still a major win for everyone.
What this new law means...
'Biometric categorisation systems' using sensitive information scraped from images on the internet and CCTV footage.' This means people can't use AI/scraping to create a catalogue for;
People will gain the right to file complaints regarding AI systems.
AI developers must minimize risk to people, maintain usage logs, ensure transparency, and implement human oversight.
This means AI devs will HAVE to provide a comprehensive and detailed summary of the data used to train their AI's.
Any AI generated video, image, or audio (including deepfakes) MUST be labelled as such.
This is not in force for at LEAST two years. However it *is* going to become law (with an overwhelming majority of the European Parliament voting in favour, 523 in favour, 46 against, 49 absent.)
This is the first what is likely to be a slew of laws and regulations regarding the usage of AI.
one frustrating element of the new content bans on gumroad and patreon is that they're doing it to stay in line with their payment processors' policies, which themselves are in place to stay in line with FOSTA-SESTA.
which is a law passed in the united states, a country of which i am not a citizen and in which i do not live. i was legally prohibited from voting for or against FOSTA-SESTA, but because the platforms and payment providers i use are based there, i am expected to comply with it anyway.
and the tiktok situation shows us that any platform based outside the US can and will be either blocked from operating within it or forcibly divested from its foreign owners.
this is just another facet of american empire, by the way. it's more than bombs and guns and client states: it's that the US leverages its dominance over technology and finance to set policy for, effectively, the entire world.
Been gone for a while. I was working on building a human. They're out of the oven now, and well baked if I do say so myself lol. I'm over the moon, but recovery and the life change has been difficult, so I haven't felted or sculpted anything in months. It's nice to finally be in a place where I can create again.
Working on a mobile for my lil grublet. First critter is done, a dragon holding a muffin to represent me! There will be three more, each representing one of their primary guardians: a Cascades fox with a Sounders scarf, a red river hog with a mushroom, and a jackalope with a top hat.
government is trying to ban tiktok meanwhile millions of poor and disabled americans are about to completely lose their internet access at the end of april because congress wont renew funding for the affordable connectivity program
hell fucking world
if you want to help us convince congress to do something that actually benefits society, please check out the link below. we only have roughly 45 days of affordable internet service remaining from the time this post has been written

Thank you to the approximate eleventy billion people who sent me this on the clock app.
it's hilarious how if you do any amount of research into life or death melee combat the prevailing themes that emerge are that
Other favorites from history:
Do any other agender people conceptualize their gender as just… themself? I’m not a man, I’m not a woman, I’m not a combination of either, I’m not a third different thing that belongs to a recognizable social group, etc. Like I don’t fuckin know man. I’m having a Me Party.
