Not being able to afford a thumbnail artist or editor is not an excuse to use AI. Practically every successful channel started off with no funds and did everything themselves at one point. If 15 year old me could do all my editing and thumbnails with free software, so can you.

I'M RUNNING THE NYC MARATHON IN 5 DAYS 😱😱 We've raised ~$6,500 out of my $8,000 goal to fund life-changing educational opportunities for tomorrow's leaders. Thank you so much to everyone who has contributed so far! Help me get over the finish line: prepforprep.org/support/team…
I’m running my first ever marathon next Sunday & am fundraising for a non-profit that changed my life in so many ways. I’d love your support to close the education gap and help build the next generation of leaders 💙 prepforprep.org/support/team…

Hi y'all! As many of you know, i'm currently in grad school for game design at NYU. For one of my midterms, I wanna write about Pokemon Champions bringing new players into VGC. If Champions was how you started playing VGC, could you tell me about it below? RTs appreciated!

Noticed a sudden uptick in Inteleon teams on Champions ladders this week. What dumb clown was responsible for this?? 🔫🦎

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

AI art sucks in a million different ways, but what is extra stupid about this is how unnecessary it is. You went out and won a physical trophy, take a picture of yourself taking notes with the trophy next to you!

I’ll take care of his fine
#Texans Pro Bowl middle linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair fined $11,492 for unauthorized message on eye black Sunday vs. #Bills Hind Rajab was a five-year-old Palestinian girl killed by Israeli military firing several bullets along with six family members in Gaza City on January 29, 2024. Audio recordings of Hind calling for help sparked international outrage. In August, Israeli military confirmed soldiers fired on the vehicle and ordered an internal criminal investigation into the incident. Al-Shaair was previously fined $11,593
