"My little butterfly wings are getting kinda tired." Dolly knew the power of leading with love. She is, and will always be, an inspiration and an example. She's been a guiding light in my life and so many others. An angel on earth went home. We'll always love you, Dolly.

Poquita broma con Dolly Parton, que era una SEÑORA, con parque de atracciones propio, filántropa en obras sociales -entre ellas de lectura infantil-, puso pasta para la vacuna contra el Covid y dio ejemplo en ponérsela mientras otros famosos que no nombraré hicieron lo contrario y causaron muertes.

What Dolly taught us is that it is in fact possible to be wealthy beyond your wildest dreams of avarice but still be a fundamentally good person with a strong moral compass, and the only reason more rich people aren't like that is because they don't want to be.

“I trust my immune system. I don’t need a vaccine.” Ok, I trust mine to protect me too. Which is why I trained it extensively on what the virus looks like so it can handle it. Boxers don’t enter the ring without a plan. It’s the punch you don’t see coming that knocks you out.

Worth reiterating every time that this is not some cancel-culture purity test: JK Rowling has pledged more than a billion dollars of her Harry Potter money towards bankrolling anti-trans lawsuits. This finances that.

Webtoons going all in on AI.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_... Crassus, the guy from whose name crass comes from, ran a private fire department and booming real estate business. His men would set your home on fire, then offer you decreasing offers to buy it and put it out as it burned to the ground. Don't sell, it's ashes.

"Why SHOULDN'T government be run like a business?" Because the goals are diametrically opposed and mutually exclusive. Businesses exist to make money. Governments exist to make people's lives better. You ask if the fire dept is successful at putting out fires and saving people, not the $ it makes

if you are any kind of creative or artist or writer you *have* to understand sex workers and porn/erotica artists/authors as being members of the same class as us. to the extent society recognizes a difference between "legitimate" art and porn, it's only as a tenuous, convenient, temporary fiction.

Here's the thing. If I know/notice genAI used in any part of your project, no matter how small, I will assume you used it for all of it, and I won't be interested at all. Why should I care if you don't?

Seeing writers use AI to make “book covers” is so disappointing. Where is the professional respect?

Saw a post saying "I don't want NSFW accounts to talk about voting, just let me jack off" Buddy, NSFW artists and sex workers are being constantly attacked by a government of nonces trying to distract from their own crimes by pinning the blame on porn. They have the right to speak up about this.

No solo esto, cuando dijo que le habían entrado ganas de escribir más relatos de Ser Duncan el Alto después de la serie, porque le hizo mucha ilusión verla tan bien hechita, saltaron también estos cretinos. En vez de, no sé, alegrarse de que el hombre quisiera volver a escribir.

A lot of Deltarune fans are in such a hurry to get all the answers but speaking as a Fandom Elder, let me tell you that if you're enjoying everything surrounding this game you should just have fun in the present. This is a unique moment in time for you, so enjoy it while it lasts y'know?

This is a good thread (and replies) on a rough timeline of how these things may play out from here, which I recommend reading to reduce some of the stress surrounding the constant presence of these bills Your efforts ARE making a difference, take a breath, stay focused, and keep at it

SCREEN failed to pass out of committee, despite a 15-13 vote (in favor). Not enough members voting, but looks like a party line vote. Good work everyone! Keep up the pressure for after recess and beyond!
