Stop putting this christian baby in Situations
genuinely in love with the reveal, from the baby prodigy scenario, that Christian Baby does not refer simply to a baby baptised and born to christians, but to an infant that holds a belief in christian theology
A star-tracker rotates the camera at the same speed as the Earth, but in the opposite direction. It has the visual effect of stabilizing the sky. Usually, star-trackers are used to stabilize the camera during a long exposure, to avoid blurry or streaked stars in the image.
The purpose of this video is to help us visualize the Earth’s rotation. It’s something we know is happening, but is not something we directly perceive.

“ai is making it so everyone can make art” Everyone can make art dipshit it came free with your fucking humanity
Oh gee, you’re right! Why didn’t the people who can’t even move their arms think of just making a painting? /s
And before anyone starts spouting some “art is more than just painting” spiel, you don’t know what kind of art someone might need to make in order to express their vision. An artist may have a very specific idea in mind to create the perfect piece of graphic art, and using music, performance, etc. just won’t cut it for them. AI is a tool that can help the disabled in so many ways. Not even just with art. Get off your high horse and accept that disabled people have different needs and, guess what, ABILITIES than you do. Fuck you, asshole.
you are a tar pit.
and you are ableist.
you’re fighting against a tool that makes art more accessible, and actively dismissing the notion that it could even possibly be doing that. this IS ableist. YOU are the tar pit in this situation.

Hi I’m disabled I’m crippled I have a disorder that makes my fingers suddenly dislocate while I’m holding my pencil I have a spinal issue that makes it hard for me to bend over a desk half of the time I have leg issues that make it difficult for me to get around etc etc etc. I also have a bunch of other issues I don’t want to tell you about.
I’m also in art college. And even if I wasn’t, I’ve been doing art for almost a decade now. I’ve been disabled the whole bloody time.
AI, isn’t art.
There are many disabled artists and we have adapted our own ways of dealing with how we create. Fuck you, we have been doing this forever.
Vincent Van Gogh had temporal lobe epilepsy; Henri Matisse became a wheelchair user after surgery for cancer; Michelangelo had osteoarthritis, limiting mobility and causing pain in his hands and feet.
Paul Smith had a severe case of cerebral palsy and created art using typewriters.
Peter Longstaff has no arms due to Thalidomide, and paints with his feet.
Frida Kahlo not only had polio that disabled her as a child, but of course as we all know was injured in a bus accident at the age of 18, which caused her lifelong pain and medical problems.
Fuck, you want a personal annecdote? I knew a girl (we have lost touch since) who was paralysed from the neck down and she painted with her mouth and there are other artists who do so too! And with eye tracking technology I’m sure disabled artists will be getting more and more tools as the years pass. But we do NOT condone AI art. All that does is put us, real disabled artists, who exist and need support, out of jobs and commissions.
Fuck you.
hi, another disabled person here for more personal anecdotes! here is an art piece i made entirely with my non dominant hand 1 week before my most recent shoulder surgery on that same arm. i also wear splint rings to keep my fingers from dislocating while painting (or playing bass guitar cause i do that too). i make most of my income off hand painted art despite having hand tremors, frequent wrist dislocations/subluxations, and migraines.
my friend and her wife also make their incomes off wig making, leatherwork, and digital collage prints. both have chronic pain as well.
our lines arent perfect because we have shaky hands but thats ok, make it a feature not a flaw in your art. fuck AI.
Anyone who thinks physically disabled people need to use art stealing AI to make our own art is the ableist, actually.
Mine isn’t as drastic (yet) but I’ve been having to wear wrist braces and finger splints since childhood off and on because using my hands in a repetitive motions causes them to be in pretty excruciating pain.
What is my art medium of choice? Knitting. You know, that thing where you have to do a repetitive motion over and over again. I hold my needles a bit strange, I knit through the pain, I sometimes have to give up working on it for weeks at a time. But I will not stop because it’s what makes my heart sing.
Disabled artists don’t need your pity, we’ve been getting by, doing what makes us happy despite the pain and hardships for thousands of years, probably longer, I bet there were neolithic disabled artists.
No actual real artist wants or uses AI, including disabled artists. AI is for losers who are scared of the extremely important phase in art where you suck and want to skip it by stealing and not even in a cool “I’m emulating your style because I wanna learn from it” way.
Go suck at art for a couple years like the rest of us and stop talking over disabled artists.
And also if you just really really really really cannot create your vision and need someone else to do it for you. Then just hire a goddamn artist. Save up your money if you need it so badly that you’re willing to enable thieves that care as little about art as they do about the real people who make it.
I’m disabled, I’m a writer, and I will absolutely fistfight anyone trying to say they shouldn’t have to put in the twenty years of fucking EFFORT that I HAVE EXPENDED in BEING A GODDAMN WRITER behind a goddamn denny’s at three AM
Establish a routine where you regularly leave the house and go to the same place. Ideally a somewhat mildly social setting, like a gym, or a volunteer gig, or some kind of art or practical skills class. Engage with people who talk to you, talk about things you like, and be open with compliments and questions. I’ve found this usually leads to coffee, or small gatherings, or other workshops or events that branch out from there.
Reading a book with even vaguely old timey dialogue fucks up my language abilities so bad for days.

I just responded to an informal email with “unlike the rest my present difficulties, this one was entirely my fault, but at least it’s easily remedied.”
Forcing myself to edit this next email to sound like a 21st century human wrote it instead of sending “please pardon the delay in communication; I was still lacking in suitable images on Sunday. Happily, this last week’s endeavors have yielded better stockphotos of sexy lawyers”

Idk man it’s so easy to get bogged down in all the bullshit online but when my then-6 year old cousin found out I was trans he said “ok” then corrected my grandma when she misgendered me. I was once the third between a gay man and a lesbian. Two lesbians once invited me back to their place when I presented as a man. I met an AMAB nb butch who looked strikingly to outsiders like a cis man and it was one of the more sapphic experiences I’ve had. I nervously wore a boydyke shirt to pride and got 3 different cis-looking femme folks tell me they loved my shirt. I once told a trans group at a protest that any pronouns were fine for me and one person said “wow, I’m impressed and intimidated by people like that. I don’t know that I could be that chill with pronouns.” I once told a GNC friend I wished I could wear a type of “opposite” gender clothing after I had already transitioned and so it would be associated with my AGAB and he said “You could just do it.” I’ve had cishet men fight cops for me before. The first time I had a doctor ask me if my name was different than what was on my forms I had to try not to cry. Last week, a phone call with a doctor’s office where I am generally cis passing asked unprompted if my name listed is what I want to be called. It touched me then too. I told a lesbian friend once I felt like my attraction to men AND women both felt gay. She said “makes sense.” And we moved on. I go by different pronouns in different circles. I’ve had gay women love my facial hair. I’ve had gay men like my tits. It’s all out there, I promise. It can be hard to find it but I promise there is community like you and community who likes you. And it’s more messy and beautiful than tumblr discourse makes it out to be.
Ralph Breaks the Internet is already a horrible movie but I just can’t begin to imagine how bad it will age
Imagine 30 years from now having to explain to people that Disney was trying to do something DARING by exploring Internet World so they made an “emotional” scene where the main character reads mean comments about him by people who dont even know he’s a sentient creature and just consider him a dumb video game meme
This is so fucking innacurate bc if ralph were real people on twitter wouldnt be hateposting about him theyd be drawing his cock
