Rec'd on 🩰 what did you do this week that was awesome
MY WRITING CLASS
I have been taking a class on the different structures of the essays. This week, the older man that sits next to me asked me to explain what ”Serving Cunt” meant (I have a patch on my bag with that phrase, pictured below). It got us and the class talking about drag and trans people, and it felt like a good conversation. I have also had to explain homoeroticism to him. He has started turning to me to explain terms he doesn’t understand. I love this class, and I’m so excited for the last few weeks ❤️

Awesome! I was trying to explain this use of cunin recent vernacular to an older feminist colleague this week … I failed! have you seen Bella Freud’s ‘hello cunty’ line https://bellafreud.com/products/hello-cunty-unisex-t-shirt-black?srsltid=AfmBOoprjTK-Qz0ifmxvVmWuyLQqE7NyMGiIpogLEYlCs-Yi-pq3WFkP

@ROSIEOVERELL I have not, but now I have! I love a graphic tee! It’s hard to explain unless you explain EVERYTHING culturally that goes into it. And so many people are very against reclamation, especially older people, so its hard to come to an agreement or a good ending

WHY THO?
Why not go through the process of blending those images yourself? Why not use process as an experiment? Why AI? What part are you playing? What makes it yours? I think AI is impersonal. I think it is unethical when it has relied on the theft of actual people’s actual physical (and because of the nature of art, often time emotional) labor. I also think it is unnecessary in creating art. I also think the environmental impacts are atrocious. I also think AI’s biggest supporters are being maliciously ignorant because it’s a fun new toy. Is it ease? Is it efficiency? People talk about accessibility as if children don’t use crayons and stickers! As if graffiti artists don’t use postal labels as sticker, as if sand mandalas don’t exist, as if cardboard and tape aren’t in over abundance.

Tbh, i mostly hate the re-rec feature
Maybe this isn’t so much a fix for staff, but I feel like the reposting of things has gotten a bit lame. I don’t want the “Everyone” feed to be the same post 20 times with nothing added, especially when the thing being re-rec’d isn’t even a real reccomendation in the first place. I like this app because it is different than Instagram and Twitter and tumblr and the like. I feel like people are trying to interact similarly to those other apps here. I feel like we are all drifting back into creating the same social media AGAIN. My vote would be to remove the feature entirely, but I see how it can be used thoughtfully
