This is a thing in the UK, folks. Just cleared all of my stuff from it and disconnected future use.

Anyone got any good recs on stained glass artists? This piece belonged to my grandpa, it’s his initials, Clark Cornwall Shire. It hung in the window of his office and I was so honored when my Mom gave it to me. I will always regret not saving it. I need some help recreating it ❤️

The UK’s AI Opportunities Action Plan, published today, proposes legalising the mass theft of IP by AI companies. And the government has already accepted its recommendations, revealing the ongoing consultation on AI & copyright as a sham. More thoughts here fairtraining.substack.com/p/the-ai-opp...

The AI Opportunities Action Plan is a huge blow to the UK's creative industries. Unfortunately, Labour seems to have made up its mind.
The AI Opportunities Action Plan, commissioned by the UK government and written by Matt Clifford, was published today. It’s a 25-page document that outlines a plan for how the UK can “embrace the tran...

Gen ai is poisoning our power grid, stealing intellectual property, using precious water, and ruining the internet with unreliable information and garbage imagery. Don't use it, and don't normalize it, even for laughs.

An old one but I suppose it's about time I shared some of my art on bluesky too. Part of my reinterpreted Scottish Folklore and invented Fae creatures series. Cait Sidhe - The Fae Cat
A pencil and digital mixed media drawing of a fae cat also known as Cait Sidhe, it is black and grey with stripes and glowing eyes. It is sitting against a white background with a stylised drawing of the moon directly behind it.

This is precisely it. Streeting and his allies believe that allowing a child to continue to be trans is ‘harm’ because they see being trans as inherently bad. Conversely they see conversion therapy, starting with denial of medication, as ‘good’ because it might ‘save’ someone from being trans.

I also do not want another pandemic. Masks are incredibly useful when it comes to the flu. After the first year of the pandemic a strain of flu was declared extinct (and that was the era of imperfect masking! remember DIY cloth masks?). Masks & hand sanitizer.

I am horrified by FedEx's current commercial portraying a driver who killed a rattlesnake while delivering a package as a hero. I have written a letter (text below) to FedEx marketing officials and hope that you will do so as well, and will share this post to get more people involved. 1/4

Just a friendly reminder that the SA are huge bigots and don't help those in need... Don't give them a damn thing and find other places to support that don't discriminate!

Hey folks, a reminder: Don't use Gen ai. You can either afford an artist/stock art, or you can't. If you can't, you can make your own art/designs or abstain. Or you can cheaper your entire brand and communicate to your audience that you peddle low-effort garbage by using a plagiarism machine.

Wooooooo! More Mira Grant! Seanan never disappoints in any of her series, but her particular brand of sci-fi creepy as Mira is a gods damned delight! Whilst you wait go read the other Mira books, you won't be disappointed!

It is also probably worth noting that they can only say "for 3 years after infection" because they only had data for up to 3 years after infection.
