Its so insane that a business owner would be like "looks good" ? And you have to assume a lot of these people are fairly tech illiterate, so how are AI services reaching/advertising to them? Genuinely curious about this insane phenomenon that seems to be everywhere now

TW: suicide If you were so downtrodden/broken by your government removing rights and planning to remove more, to the point that suicides have increased in your community, would you give a shit if another party would make it worse? No, because mentally you're in such a dark place you don't care.

Trans people are dying of suicide more than the general UK population, data shows

Investigation finds that trans people make up 1% of the UK population and 7% of child suicides, but official data is full of holes

In October 2020, he posted his last video, Angry Baking with Zach. He says he hasn’t been able to make a video for eight months, talks about mental-health stigma and bakes brownies. The following February, he took his own life at age 21.

“When you talk about someone who has ended their lives in that way, you think of someone who is just so low, and that’s partially true,” says Zach’s mum, talking about his years long battle with mental health. “But when he wasn’t suicidal, he was funny – like, incredibly funny – very bright, and always trying to do good things. Trying to raise money to help other people, volunteering.”

Zach is one of 50 trans and nonbinary people verified by Good Law Project and QueerAF through multiple sources, who have died by suicide or self-inflicted death over the last 10 years.

Working with the community project Trans Lives, we have also verified six more trans and nonbinary people who died of preventable or premature deaths other

It's not enough to be against AI, you need to be pro art. You need to be a champion of the art you love, you need to share that passion and joy, and do what you can to support the artists who make it, because it's not enough to hate AI, to hate what it's doing to art and media; you gotta love.

Saw a small flock of tree swallows at Horicon Marsh. This one stopped on a branch for a few seconds, then dropped down off the branch and was zipping around after a very brief rest. Many birds drop off the branch, and sometimes we can get a lucky click like the full wingspread shot. #birds

Cover art for the 2025 special edition of Howl's Moving Castle published by Greenwillow Books (HarperCollins). Features Sophie and Howl standing in a flower field beneath a grassy hill. Sophie wears a pink dress and has a glowing staff that sparks magic. She has red hair and a soft smile. Howl clutches his chest which also sparks magic. He holds a guitar and wears a red coat with trailing coat trails. The moving castle stomps along the top of the hill in front of a sunset sky with magical blue smoke drifting behind it.
