The AI industry won't survive if we have to ask artists for permission!

If you ever want to see a Trump supporter go apeshit insane, just casually mention he's never won an election against a man.

In my day job, I work for a media company that focuses on the toy industry.

Apropos of nothing, I decided to add the Mastodon plushie (aka #Plushtodon) to the latest products on our Toy Insider website.

Please boost this so our editors will frustratingly tell me to stop trying to make Mastodon happen.

Hitler goes to see an astrologer, as he so often does. He asks:
"When will I die?"
The astrologer pours over his charts for a while, and then answers:
"You will die on a Jewish holiday."
"But which one? Which one?!"
The astrologer pauses, peers over his half-moon glasses, and answers:
"Adolf, any day you die will be a Jewish holiday."

Happy Hitler Shot Himself Day, everyone!

The only lists I want to see are the lists of former and current ICE officers, so that their neighbors know exactly who is selling them out.

Thought for today ..

I've got a quick favour to ask. If you're reading this post on Mastodon (or the Fediverse), please click share.

How come?

I recently moved across to my own self-hosted single-user server (using GoToSocial.org). For a bunch of reasons, including visibility across the Fedi, it would really help out.

Asking for a little favor.

A few years ago -for obvious reasons- I deleted all my american services. (instagram, facebook etc)

The result was my business plummeting down, no projects came in anymore, making it nearly impossible to come around after 20 years of career.

The favor I'm asking is if you know someone who's working with illustrators, or even just interested, just share my stuff please. Thanks :)
