Big Tech doesn't care if you want AI or not. They should.

I made a thing. Feel free to save it and stick it on anything you like, whether to express your opposition to GenAI, or to indicate that your content is 100% made by a genuine human brain!

I'm inviting you—if you want—into courageous & self-compassionate artistic expression.

I've been using the hashtag #MakingArt on my stuff, so if you want to share what you're making alongside me, you could do that (or don't, up to you).

You can create things AND you can take joy in sharing your expression with others. You do NOT need to achieve some arbitrary level of "skill" or use any particular medium in any particular way. Just be & do & share.

Hey USA, Germany here.

Government officials openly killing innocent people in the streets without any reason is about as Hitler-Nazi-like as you can get.

Stay strong!

Right now #wind is meeting 30% of the National Grid's electricity demand. https://winderful.uk

2026 must be the year of climate action. 🌍
