This week sees a quick story musing on meaning and some broader discussion on its container.

Hello, @EUCommission . The parasite technocrats leading generative #AI not only are destroying nature, but also stealing all our work from the open science and free culture community. So far, I see nothing being done on your side to prevent this massive plagiarism and theft.

Ayer publicaba el capítulo sobre salud, funcionalidad y discapacidad para GNU Health
Después reflexionaba sobre el tiempo y esfuerzo que conlleva la investigación, para que cualquier caradura o bot de #AI plagie nuestro trabajo en dos minutos.
La IA generativa es un claro ejemplo de la decadencia y miseria moral en nuestra sociedad.

This week sees a variety pack from a unique project.
#freeCulture #bookClub

Casual ask for support! My name is Emiliano and I am an indie comic artist and illustrator - always publish under the Jectoons handle.

I love community and free culture, and have been editing and publishing @fodongozine for the past 3 years. This is a project in which I hire other indie artists to make 3-page comics to be released under free-cluture licenses, and do my best to make it open for everyone, releasing the issues for everyone to read after about a month! There's 25 issues already, go read some comics:

https://fodongo.ca

I want to ask that if you like this project and any of the other things I do, that you share it with someone else. And if you can help fund it, that would be amazing! I have a :patreon: link:

https://patreon.com/jectoons

As well as an OpenCollective account:

https://opencollective.com/fodongo

And a :liberapay: :

https://liberapay.com/jectoons

I try to pay for all of this and to increase the amounts paid to artists every year, but I am currently working a minimum wage job that slows down my ability to cover these projects as much as I'd like to, because, you know: Life is expensive. Also I have cats. And they eat a lot.

I am not particularly good at asking for money, but every now and then I need to do so. That being said, I know a lot of us are on the same boat, so if you can only share Fodongo around, that'd be great and much appreciated.

Much solidarity,
Emiliano
