So the White House is literally just putting out AI images like 1984 meant to trick the American public. Zooming in on one of the photos released from the State Fair 250 shows a disembodied head being held aloft like a freaking beach ball. #Trump #AI #Fascism

The White House is also putting out AI images designed to literally lie to the public. In the top image, you can see a woman whose head is being held up like a beach ball.

The theatre department at the university I work at is partnering with a local animal shelter to get some kittens adopted, and I got to make some portraits of them tonight. 📷 - Fuji GFX 100s II #Photography #Portrait #Cats #Fujifilm

With everything going on in the world right now. I don't know why I'm doing this, but I'm trying to hold myself accountable in little ways putting pressure on myself to keep up with my art learning. Here's two sketches. #art #BeginnerArt

My dogs live a pretty sheltered life, away from the 76 acres I grew up on. But over the Christmas visit they got to be "wild" for a bit.

People watch from behind barriers as a group of people run down the street during a "bed race" where one member of a group is on a bed frame with wheels. In the foreground is the silhouette of a person holding up a sign that is backlit and see through. The sign says "Go Faster!"

The scene is high energy and is photographed in the harsh mid-day sun creating strong contrast.

For anyone curious as to what rustled his jimmies enough to do this.

An image displaying a social media post from "Attorney General Todd Rokita" at the top, condemning a "vile comment" made by another user, which is partially shown below under a "BALL STATE UNIVERSITY" banner on a platform resembling X or Facebook. The highlighted comment discusses the death of Charlie Kirk, stating it's a tragedy for his family but also a "reflection of the violence, fear, and hatred he sowed," while also acknowledging other victims of violence, including children. Rokita's post emphasizes opposing political violence and questioning the ability of those making such comments to hold leadership positions. The image shows engagement metrics at the bottom: 405 reactions, 946 comments, and 78 shares.

A screenshot of a social media post by Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita about the "Eyes on Education" portal. The post asks Hoosiers to submit evidence of educators celebrating or rationalizing the assassination of Charlie Kirk, emphasizing accountability and empowering parents. Below the post, a comment from Jill Kaye asks where to report racist and sexist comments and posts made by educators. The image also includes elements of the "Eyes on Education" website interface.

The image is a two-panel meme featuring D.W. from the animated show "Arthur."
In the top panel, D.W., a young aardvark wearing a brown dress, looks thoughtfully at a yellow sign hanging on a wooden door. The sign reads "THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA".
The bottom panel shows D.W. now facing away from the door, with the same sign visible in the background. Below D.W., text in white with a black outline reads, "That sign won't stop me. because I can't read!"

It has a tag hanging from its collar. The bottom image shows a cartoon owl with brown and tan feathers, large yellow eyes, and thick white eyebrows, also looking displeased. The owl is perched on a branch, with a purple and blue background featuring butterfly shapes.

Overall, I would say roughly 100-125 people showed up who were not allowed in the building. Granted, I am really bad at estimating crowd sizes. Hearing the room where the townhall was held maxed out at 160 people.
