I’ve already posted something longer on my blog because I was trying to avoid spoiling the fun but (as loud as I can - not reflected on you): THIS IS AI. IT’S NOT HIERATIC (that looks different) IT’S BARELY EVEN CURSIVE HIEROGLYPHS.
Look closely:
Do they really look like hieroglyphs? No.
Do they really form things other than birds? No.
Do they distinct groups that could be words even if you can’t read them? No.
When you spot the same sign on another part of the door, why does it look like the person carving them (because Reddit OP says an exacto knife was used) suddenly forgot a script they are apparently fluent enough in to carve on a toilet door? Because it is AI.
TL;DR: Reddit op was karma farming using AI to generate nonsense “hieratic” onto what is probably a real photo of a toilet door. Because Hieroglyphs in the public consciousness are considered a funny ha ha picture script rather than a real script belonging to a real language capable of literature, people’s brains skip over the obvious faults. If you searched for “hieratic examples” or “cursive hieroglyphs examples” and compared them to the above image, it’d be very quickly apparent that it wasn’t real.
very nervous making this type of post again, but here goes: sort of in a rough spot due to switching jobs this last month. my new job is on a montly pay schedule, and my june check was light as i did not get hired until the middle of may. right now, i need just a bit of help covering two bills as i only have enough for one + food. if you can help, i appreciate anything you can spare! thank you for reading/helping!
The part of the video at the end where it pans down and reveals the camera operator is also wearing a cosplay dress is essential to my enjoyment of this video.
given the current climate this pride especially i feel i must mention that i love my trans friends, i stand with trans people in the fight against transphobic legislation and those who would enforce it, and this blog is not a good place for you to be if you do not vibe with that
Yet another new study debunked the basis for the anti-trans sports bans. It was never about sports but for creating legal avenues for exclusion and abjection. This is one of the largest analyses ever conducted, involving 52 studies and 6,485 trans people. Read the study here.
