Be very mindful about the content you consume online.
You might think you are above its negative influence on your mood and thoughts, but you aren't. Nobody is.
The content you consume influences the way you think overtime. Even if you are on a platform to fight the opposition, what the algorithm is feeding you there *will* have an influence on yourself overtime.
Be careful what you feed to your brain.

Can you imagine if the billionaire tech bros were spending all their energy developing solutions to clean the planet and distribute resources better instead of incessantly enshittifying our lives and trying to devaluate labour?
What a different world that would be.
I wish them all a Ghosts-of-Christmas experience.
Happy Holidays to all who celebrate,
in one way or another! 🎄✨
Whether it's spending time with your family, your chosen family, your friends, your partner(s), resting by yourself, treating yourself with some candy canes while at work, or posting on the Fediverse with us! :awesome:
No matter the reason for our social gatherings, they all play an essential role in strengthening the human bonds that unite us, and building communities.
Take this time to dream of a future where humanity values empathy, community, equality, consent, and solidarity above all 💚

I can't believe how many good pieces of software we've lost to AI garbage.
It's like a disease! 🦠🤖

It would be nice if the world started to try improving human rights worldwide for a little while, instead of killing and exploiting each other.
It would be nice if tech started to improve our lives and listen to users' needs for a little while, instead of stealing our data and tracking us everywhere.
It would be nice if people worked on being kinder and more empathetic with each other for a little while, instead of always trying to pick fights and downvote others.
It would be nice.
When the state builds a stalker tool, it will eventually make its way for stalkers to use.
When a corporation builds a stalker tool, it will eventually make its way for stalkers to use.
Stop building stalker tools!

Like your body reacts to the food you feed it,
Your brain reacts to the content you feed it.
Be mindful about what you feed your brain. Don't let the algorithms dictate what you eat and how you feel.
Pay attention to how a platform influences your mood and the way you think.
Are you getting addicted to downvoting in rage? 👎
Are you missing the doomscrolling adrenaline and increasingly looking to pick fights online, and offline? 🤬
These all affect your brain's chemistry,
and eventually your brain's structure even 🧠
Be careful what you feed your brain,
and who serves you this food.

I want to live in a woke version of the 90s. Is that too much to ask?
The argument shouldn't be:
"I don't have anything to hide, so you can surveil me,"
Instead, it should be:
"I don't have anything to hide, so you shouldn't surveil me."

If I were rich, I'd buy so much art to support so many living artists.
It's a shame that this trend is dead, and even deader with AI now. I feel devastated for my ex-colleague artists :blobcatverysad:
