If attendance at a major women's conference was down 80% due to a boycott fighting against trans *inclusion*, it would be all over the Times, Telegraph, Mail etc. This last weekend, attendance at a major women's conference was down 80% due to a boycott fighting against trans *exclusion*. Crickets.

AI Models don't "go rogue." They're not sentient and cannot take independent activity. We literally just had guidance from the Associated Press about this last week. Do better.

The male hair options in general are pretty lackluster (though you could say it for the character creator in general too I suppose). It looks like there will probably be more options for sale in the future which I assume is part of the reason for it.

I’m genuinely shocked at the people on here who think long covid isn’t real. Seriously? Your actuaries, departments of health even the freaking department of defense know it’s real. Apparently people used to think MS wasn’t real. There’s a long history of telling sick people they’re crazy.

I mean yes I *do* think it's interesting that the "Covid-Safe Lesbian Bar is Full of Weirdos" story dropped right before the CDC changed the reporting criteria for wastewater infection levels to make it so what used to be High is now just Moderate (and it's the *second* time they've done it).

I personally would love to hear more. I’ve also only had a cursory interaction with the piece (though am more familiar with the source material) and am generally a fan of the medium so hearing people get into the details sounds pretty fascinating.

Obviously we’re in a “many such cases” place on this lately and this is just the most recent in a long line of such situations but it still seems like a bunch of people refuses to see what’s right in their faces somehow.

We are at the break glass moment on the Democratic Party and its treatment of transgender people, and it is my opinion that if we don’t act now and loudly demand to be heard, we will suffer the consequences of their shift.

Depending on what kind of quality you need a lot of runway shows get posted to YouTube and you could grab screenshots. Not gonna work for like hires print stuff but if you just need decent images it could be a place to get a lot of options.

I’m more Covid cautious than most people these days and it absolutely is hard to find spaces where it’s taken seriously. But starting all of this because *one night* was moving away from masks required seems wild. It’s bean soup adjacent at the very least. Just don’t go on that night?

Personally I think we should celebrate people doing “small tasks” more Oh you made a meal? I am cheering you on Oh you brushed your teeth and got out of bed on time? I am cheering you on Oh you did laundry? I am cheering you on I will always uplift people for doing even the most mundane

I am absolutely at a point where if you’re using AI for *anything* I just assume you don’t care that much about whatever you’re putting out there. Oh you “only used it for promotional imaging”? I don’t care, you seem uninterested in the quality of your work and therefore so am I.

When you say 'all erotica is bad, no exceptions' you inevitably end up down the rabbit hole of conservatism where LGBT folks, queer culture and anything deemed 'strange' sexually is renounced and eventually banned through legal means.

People really need to fucking re-learn the difference between "I don't like this" and "This is harmful". Not liking a thing is fine, but you don't get to dictate what others enjoy, actually. Especially not within fiction. Be an adult. If you don't like something, move on.

I don't really enjoy smug takes after yet another webcomic platform goes down. Every single comic platform Spidersilk has ever been on is gone, so this isn't my first rodeo. And yes, I do have my own site. But some people LIKE having their comic on those kinds of platforms. Like just a thought.

They actually don’t want to win. Not too much, and not with “left” policies or a left program. And so they try to find ways to win less and lose more, to keep the working class political development down, because that’s their ultimate goal that drives everything else, including this.
