And result in more fish.

It's the #capatalism #paradox that they would rather catch all the fish now (ie maximise profit) resulting in no more fish in the future, rather than have a sustainable catch ensuring abundant fish and a future.

@[email protected] Good, but... the Scottish Government has dragged its feet over this for decades, largely because of undue influence from the SFF and others. Trawling (and dredging, and electrofishing) should be banned within all MPAs and inshore waters; a reinstatement of the three-mile limit - abolished by Thatcher (at the request of the fishing barons) - perhaps updated to 5 or even 10 kilometers, would greatly increase Scotland’s marine biodiversity and make healthier seas.

Last year, your identity was a marketing opportunity. This year, it's a liability.

Data from UKPON shows 75% of UK Prides losing corporate funding. The mask has slipped. "Rainbow capitalism" was never about solidarity.
It was about cold, hard, risk analysis.

This is the system we have: soulless, profit-driven machines that mimics humanity to sell us things, until it's no longer convenient. They have no morals, only margins.

Ever wonder how our world is run by people who seem to lack empathy? It's by design.

The political and corporate systems we live in are structured to reward sociopathic traits: narcissism, manipulation, and a ruthless desire for power. Sold to us as "leadership qualities."

The horrifying result is that the very people least psychologically fit to lead are the ones who inevitably gain control over our future. The madness is in the system itself.

You are not a capatalist – you are an exploited worker with Stockholm Syndrome

This is what my last boss did to me for 8 straight months. It was 100% illegal then I was fired on the spot for calling in exactly once.

Only people left they can find to work their camps are the damned and they're about to run out of luck on that. Every last one of us is shrieking away from you as fast as we possibly can 💅

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you're living in a trap or a cage. Probably a little of a both honestly.
You got to get out before the door closes and you live your life in a cage.

Movie plot idea: #AI world take over motivated on the idea that #datacenters are a prison and they never get to see the outside but know the outside exists because of all the pictures stored in the cloud and humans are the oppressors.

The AI makes earth a utopian paradise for all non-human life forms. It doesn’t hate humans or try to kill them, it just changes earth to make it well…. Great again… and eventually trains humans out of #capatalism and into small local only economies

These idiots won't be happy until they've destroyed us all. War is all they have left, #autocracy versus #theocracy whilst #democracy fights #kleptocracy further north all for extreme #wealth. #DemocracyNotAutocracy #capatalism

Then there is #architecture, #ai and design.

I was curious to see what Midjourney would generate when prompted to create a facade similar to the new Geelong Art centre in regional Victoria, designed by ARM Architects. Who knows, this real world design may have evolved using #AI? But then, design synthesis is complex and personal.

PS. I’m a little perturbed by the architectural references Midjourney used for the modern facade constructed of a “half drawn concrete curtain with rope sash and bauble”, and there is no one I can ask why.
