   Since posting things online is an entirely useless and ineffective form of activism, when you post such a statement, it has absolutely no effect on me.

   And I don't even get to see your words of wisdom either, so I don't even get to know such a theory, because posting online is worthless.

   To make sure I know how useless keyboard activism is, you have to meet me in person in real life and scream it into my face. Only then I will receive the message and be able to act upon it.

   So until then ... I'll be waiting.

   Sometimes, people still surprise me and that's pleasant.

   Had an interaction with an AI art hater who posted that it has no emotion and it's worthless.

   To which we had a thorough discussion regarding my own emotions and how I implement those emotions into my AI art prompts and that it's a bad thing to dismiss people's emotions and sense of creativity.

   Instead of calling me a thief and blocking me, he explained that he'd rather see my stick figures, personally, and even moreso that he admitted he doesn't have the right to tell anyone what *art* is. It's just his personal preference.

   I did not expect this to happen and fully expected to be blocked. A bit of faith in humanity restored with that interaction.😌

   @breadandcircuses Skeptical about the number of climate offsets that are are worthless.

   To be honest, I think they're all worthless.

   We need to decarbonize by 90% in a decade. Some plan that you can pay to emit CO2 as long as you have some other activity that supposedly consumes it, seems like an obvious loser to me.
