"[C]opyright law exists to incentivize human acts of creative expression, which means that only works of human authorship are eligible for copyright." 👏
It's not often that I find myself on the same side as the US Copyright Office. In fact, I think this is the first time in 25 years that I've found myself cheering on the office's official actions as good for art *and* good for free expression, taking the side of creative workers over our bosses.

You might go so far as to say this is an authoritarian playbook for radically restricting civil liberties, public broadcasting, creative expression and freedom of movement … but perhaps that’s just my respectable veneer of progressivism talking

I don’t have a way of confirming this at the moment but I’m 99% sure AO3 explicitly recognizes that fanfic authors own rights to their original creative contributions (while professional authors retain copyright in their original expression).

I'm excited for the future. I had a rough summer for creative expression in many areas. Basically ran on minimal while my mom was so sick, then surgery and work got crazy. Feels different now. I have some words again.

Knuth's books are "the art of computer programming"
Computer programming is creative expression and it's practice is an art form. Yes we do it commercially, but we all have a lot in common with our peers in creative fields.

Guilty as charged. I didn’t get it. I’m not an artist. I’m a programmer.
I get it now. I’m sorry.

I hope this should be obvious by now but I am anti-AI and anti-censorship. Please don’t recommend me anything that falls under these categories. As a creative, I believe in artistic integrity and the expression of the human soul above all. 🙏🏾

One of the best parts of the creative process is talking about all the thought you put into choices and decisions and all the ideas you had but ended up ditching or altering along the way.

As you teach you understand how much anxiety they have about their place in the world, and even the possibility of a future for so many of them.
It’s one of the reasons I try so hard to get them to be creative through words and art because they need it. They need the expression, the release.

tools are not inherently versatile; a tool is ideal for the purpose for which it was developed. or, while you can pound nails to frame out a house by shooting the nails with a .22 pistol, you would be a fool to do so.

Ride to the Polls | Protect the Sacred
Ride for the People (formerly Ride to the Polls) is a culturally rooted voter engagement program designed to increase youth participation and overall voter registration and turnout in Arizona’s Indigenous communities. The program aims to amplify the voices of historically disenfranchised, rural reservation communities by combining civic engagement with cultural expression. Our model integrates a dynamic art campaign with on-the-ground activations, ensuring that visual storytelling and creative expression inspire action. Led and supported by Native youth, our program includes voter registration drives, early voting mobilization events that celebrate the subcultures of Indigenous communities, and Election Day trail rides that reconnect communities with traditional modes of transportation. Through these efforts, we not only increase voter participation but also empower the next generation of Indigenous leaders to take an active role in shaping their future.
