one thing you learn from making a lot of things is that the nitty gritty details, the millions of tiny invisible decisions, ARE the art. The "higher level ideas" are not nearly as important or interesting
"AI lets you focus on the higher level ideas!!" because we all grew up dreaming of becoming managers and CEOs we all know the real artists at the very highest level are the shareholders, famously full of amazing ideas

Listen I know I don't have John Darnielle's voice but how was I supposed to resist the call of doing a The Mountain Goats Steamed Hams joke? I'm one of the millions of people who got Morel Orel'd into being obsessed with No Children back in the day.
mountain goats voice: i am frowning at the sight of these hams i am getting suspicious i was promised steamed clams

Gender should literally just be a common thing that people *should* examine in order to have a fullness of life, even if nothing massively changes. It should be as common as developing a fashion style or a music taste. Deconstruction of societal imprint, no matter how “far” you go, is freedom.

If you’re outside of Minnesota and you’re wondering how to help, this guide is excellent. And seriously. Take down your Ring doorbell TODAY.

They can’t do it because it points out that they themselves are doing nothing to help. Maybe three of them saying Abolish ICE. The rest are talking about retraining and body cams and QR codes.
Could a Democrat, any Democrat, release a statement actually thanking the people that have been out there doing the fucking work instead of this constant scolding tone for the love of God

Remember that scene in V for Vendetta when the guy is like "There's so much chaos, someone will do something stupid. And when they do, things will turn nasty." And it's played over a young girl being shot by a militaristic police force, causing the public to rise up against the government? Anyway...
