    Hi #PortfolioDay! I'm Michele, a freelance vector illustrator in New York. Since 2010, I've worked across tech, publishing, healthcare, education, public outreach, and more. I'm always looking for a fresh puzzle to solve! 🎨 michelerosenthal.com

    I don’t think people understand how much a $100k salary is after taxes.

    It's such a powerful statement for these Jewish organizations to be demonstrating on Shabbat. "We will not rest" in this context means "the situation is so dire it requires breaking one of our most holy commandments." ❤️

    BREAKING: NYPD have come to disperse the crowd and silence our voices but we’re only getting louder. We will not rest until we get a ceasefire, safe return of hostages, and an end to the siege on Gaza. Countless lives are at stake. @jvplive

    So sick of AI. Just unplug it already. It's bad enough that the fossil fuel industry and military industrial complex are hurtling us toward a geological collapse. Now we have one final genius invention of capitalism, a magical machine that eliminates the need for labor by

    "I freelance, I don't have a single source of income." "Ok, we'll need to see your W2." "I don't have a W2, just 1099s." "Ok, send us your 1099." "All of them?" "No, just the one for your main source of income." "I freelance, I don't have a single source of income!" 😭

    A Torah is such a sacred document, Jews don't touch the pages with our bare fingers, for archival purposes. When the Torah is read, we use a Yad (literally "hand") which is usually a pointer with a little hand on the end. Using a knife as a Yad is sick.

    What did I tell you
    None of these AI-only "artists" would know what to do with even the mildest bit of client feedback

    The Verge didn't "choose" this image. They hired the artist Álvaro Bernis (whose name is cropped from the screenshot) to create an original illustration. Not for the first time, I find myself wondering: do we actually care about artists, or do we simply hate AI?

    Norman Rockwell is often associated with the conservative, racist politics of 1950s white America. So I thought it would be nice to share some of his lesser-known antiracist work from the 1960s. The Runaway, 1958 \ Golden Rule, 1961
    Norman Rockwell painting of a white cop and a white boy sitting at a lunch counter. The boy, with a bundle tied to a stick, has clearly run away from home, and the cop seems friendly and ready to help.
    Norman Rockwell painting depicting a crowd of different religions, cultures, and ethnicities engaged in prayer. Text over the image reads "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"

    Norman Rockwell idolized Leyendecker, but also complained that the man had no standards, saying yes to any and every job so he could maintain his lavish lifestyle. Rockwell would eventually push back against the Saturday Evening Post's racist policies. Leyendecker...didn't.

    incredibly irresponsible to share these w/o attention to their historical context. much of leyendecker's work are covers commissioned by the saturday evening post, which depicted american cultural caricatures + everyday imagery — INCLUDING those steeped in antiblackness 🧵

    stealing it, and all it costs to run is the low low price of exceeding the world's energy grids. For fucks sake. We don't want this technology. We don't need this technology. It doesn't create anything of value. All it does is consume energy and pollute. Everyone hates it, and

    it will never earn back anyone's investment let alone the cost of the entire world's energy supply. Just unplug it for good. Shut it down. Let the bubble burst already.
