I don't say this lightly, but if you correctly recognize the anti-trans pogroms and propaganda as the attempted genocide they are, the appropriate response throughout all of history has been to leave before you no longer can.

If you're trans and you have the means and opportunity to safely leave the US, you probably should. The best time to get out is likely yesterday.
A trans couple has been brutalized by a mob, and then the trans woman ended up being arrested afterwards, at a public bathroom in Louisiana. EITM writer S Baum investigates this horrible act of violence in our latest piece. www.erininthemorning.com/p/trans-coup...
no, in fact, you are just another human body, whose flesh shall go the way of all flesh

Healthcare settings are another place you really want to be masked. People there are unwell! Do not catch their viruses or pass on your illnesses to others. 😷
Hey, the COVID is increasing. Please PLEASE wear a mask to protect all the children. This virus causes brain harm! At least put masks on when flying on a germ tube, you don’t want to inhale everybody’s exhaust. It’s not all just from faces ya know. Icky.
not just right now, but like we have proof that ie being multilingual, or doing math/solving riddles on the regular significantly lowers the risk of dementia among other things that stuff works the other way 'round as well I'd assume
Honestly between long covid in anti-maskers and AI cognitive decline 2040 is gonna be a hell of a decade

ya know what I'm curious about? What happens to people who go *off* AI Like, the deskilling happens fast. But do they get those skills back if they stop? Or have we not seen anyone go the other way yet?
several studies that go into how fast/severe your brain atrophies even with short term use makes me think a lot of people will be severely fucked in the coming decades

The specific focus in this video on the way these tools get under your skin and train you to depend on them is an aspect I personally find existentially terrifying. youtu.be/TtvICev9sBE?...
i have been having fun making (trying to make) Good Art in Bryce but i hadn't let myself fully just fuck around and make some bullshit yet
I am logged on for 2 hours to say I am appalled by what I read in the HWA newsletter. There are AI witch hunts ongoing where writers are being accused of using that garbage tech with no evidence. Telling ppl who use AI proudly to get out is not gatekeeping. Call out the writers and companies.
The link to the entire weekend of livestreams of the Trans Scribe festival is here! Come support trans playwrights! youtube.com/playlist?lis...

This Thursday, 7:30pm Central Time: I'm told "Ghosts" will be the first piece of the night! Gender Fucked is offering livestreaming on their YouTube if you want to tune in! (I'd encourage you to still buy a ticket to support them even if the livestream is public on their YouTube)
Last year a trans playwright reached out and asked about doing a short 10-minute stage adaptation of my story "Ghosts" for a trans playwright festival in Chicago Turns out it'll be happening this August! www.genderfucked.org/trans-scribe...
My answer is LOL ROFL (dickbrain) The terminally AI-pilled can't even *imagine* some people have *never* asked stochastic parrots to cheat at their job for them.
In other Michigan news, the state looks set to elect it's first transgender lawmaker. Joanna Whaley won her Democratic primary and will compete in November for a state house seat, beating a primary opponent who tried and failed to disqualify her for not running under her deadname
If progressives lose, it’s bad for progressives. If progressives win, though, it’s also bad for progressives. Gotta love narrative setting.
Progressives didn’t get the big election night they wanted
Oh, and for folks who've not heard the term greeble before, think little details added to model spaceships in sci-fi to give them more texture, make them seem bigger or grander than they are. To greeble something is to give it more little bits, so that's what I mean when I say "overgreebled"
One of the things I find so off-putting about AI generated imagery is just how overgreebled it is, it always adds too much detail, and when it comes to trying to depict food, it ends up looking like it's crawling with insects or triggering trypophobia, it's extremely off-putting.
Hey man, maybe just make the sandwiches and take a pic of them.
No, they are not "locked in a tight battle." The campaign is over and now election officials are just counting the votes.

Welp, Nexus Alpha VN has been put on indefinite hold but since @ela-bambust.bsky.social is a real one about sharing the art, I'm at least gonna show off all the romance options that got developed because I'm proud of them! Might show more expression sheets if people are interested.
