It's MY fantasy world and I get to choose not to include misogyny or homophobia
“no uterus, no opinion” should apply to everything not just abortions. im tired of men speaking
can we finally acknowledge the immense power religion wields over politics as a problem and stop treating atheism/secularism as a cringe reddit thing but a prerequisite for a functioning democracy
and like. i'm sorry but religious minorities can only have rights if the state is religiously neutral. so that's a shit argument against atheism and secularism. please can we identify religion as the problem at this point. finally.
religion sucks, all religions suck, literally every single one of them is used to exacerbate and justify structural oppression, removing it from public life and govt is NOT a bad fucking thing. we need to make it an important political point, something we actively fight for!
They will both fall asleep before it’s over

You are trying your hardest. You are doing your best. Some days are not so easy and some people don't recognize your efforts. Still, those efforts are real and they should matter the most to you. You should be proud for getting up everyday and trying your best even though the circumstances are harsh. No one can take that strength away from you.

A professor of Ethics at Oslo Metropolitan University in Norway has called to legalize AI-generated child pornography, claiming that pedophilia should be seen as an innate sexuality that requires destigmatization.
Ole Martin Moen, a gay man who identifies as “queer,” currently serves as a member of the advisory board on Norway’s Patient Organization for Gender-Incongruence (PKI), a social and political lobby group for trans rights.
I’m gonna ignore the whole “child porn AI still requires real children being sex trafficked on tape to steal the images from” and go a little more surface level;
Have these academics never learned the difference between a negative feedback loop and a positive feedback loop?
Some things in life are negative feedback loops, and some are positive feedback loops. A negative feedback loop is me putting my hand on a hot burner, ripping my hand away, and then learning from the pain to not touch a hot burner again. A positive feedback loop is a woman in labor; her contractions and hormones in her body make her want to push, building and building, until eventually she gives birth.
Porn consumption seems to be an example of a positive feedback loop. Dude watches porn, gets off, but it doesn’t “satisfy” him and make him stop; instead he wants more and more and more, and the behavior in the porn gets worse and worse and worse, and his own behavior can be affected by the porn he watches because his body is associating orgasmic pleasure with harm against other people.
Making AI of child porn isn’t going to stop predators, it’s going to make more predators think their behavior is normal and fine, and kids are going to get hurt when those predators eventually lose their inhibitions and start contacting real kids.
You’re suggesting we Pavlov a bunch of men into thinking sex with kids is ok?!
Do you think average person who just thinks they’re supporting trans people knows that the entire concept of biological sex and genitalia is considered “hate speech” by this movement? Proof that most of the support they have is from people who have no clue what this ideology believes.
“Biological female” is hatespeech.
the trans ideology is pure evil, undiluted male violence.
Straight men really said "can i hug my bros and wear colorful clothes without people thinking I'm a fag :((" and some of you nod along tearfully like he's nostradamus
The homophobia ouroboros is not my concern, you made your bed now get up with fleas. You're worried about homophobia because of how it affects heterosexuals? You lost me
In a statement to The Post, a spokesperson for NBCUniversal claimed the tree work is simply an annual ritual at this time of year. “We understand that the safety tree trimming of the Ficus trees we did on Barham Blvd. has created unintended challenges for demonstrators, that was not our intention. In partnership with licensed arborists, we have pruned these trees annually at this time of year to ensure that the canopies are light ahead of the high wind season,” they wrote. “We support the WGA and SAG’s right to demonstrate and are working to provide some shade coverage. We continue to openly communicate with the labor leaders on-site to work together during this time.”
If those trees were pollarded annually, the cut areas would NOT look like that. There would be big knobs of old growth at the trimming sites. Not seeing any of that here. The way those trees were topped (not pollarded, which is a very careful process that has to begin when the tree is immature) is excellent way to kill them due to loss of hydration, open sites to infection and parasitism during the best time of year for both, lack of nutrition due to so little greenery and new budding growth being left, sunburn and other exposure damage, and a myriad of other possibilities. Plus, if they were topped annually, they would not have the lovely drooping branches seen in the other picture but would have tons of vertical suckers instead.
This is what an annually pollarded mature tree should look like:
If this was done by the city, the public works arborists should be protesting in front of city hall and screaming their heads off right now. I'm not hearing about that, so... Tree law!
The Studios: *speak*
Botanists and other Tree Experts:
Update and confirmation of Imminent Tree Law:
He mentions later in the thread that not only do they not trim the trees annually, they’re trimmed at best once every 18 years. Supposed to be every five, and only in dormancy, which even my layman’s ass knows about tree trimming.
And yes, Universal can probably eat the fine. But it’s gonna be a whopper even if the trees survive (which is as mentioned kinda unlikely), California is a triple damage state for tree law, and it may increase dramatically if there were nesting birds in the trees.
All this to be a Captain Planet filler villain to some writers. And yes, it’s currently just the writers officially picketing there; SAG-AFTRA recommended against it for petty bullshit like this and the suddenly necessary sidewalk construction.

When you're tired, stressed, burned out, depressed, or just busy, figuring out how to feed yourself multiple times a day can take more energy than you have to give. Here's a resource I've been leaning on lately so that feeding myself is easier. I've never been a meal prepper because I don't like eating leftovers over and over, and taping a written list of snack ideas to the pantry hasn't worked for me in the past. When I tried a visual method by saving a folder of photos on my phone, something clicked. I'm a visual person---of course I would benefit from seeing a personal menu of food in my own kitchen! (I haven't tried it, but I imagine a visual menu would work for kids too.) Right now, my menu has a lot of appetizer-type finger foods on it because that's what sounds good and doesn't take long to make or reheat. Maybe I'll change my menu out seasonally like a restaurant... Anyway, I hope this sparks an idea for you if deciding what food to make is a struggle. If not this method exactly, experiment and see what makes the task easier for you! I'm all for saving energy on daily, routine tasks so that I can spend it where it's really important.
OH gyns if you ever want evidence of tech bros thinking they're geniuses but being just.... SO dumb. One of my managers yesterday got in a very impassioned argument with a coworker about how reading should be phased out and replaced with AI-translation of words into speech and video. He says it's more efficient and there's no reason for us to know how to read.
He also said a painting was "more efficient" than a poem when said coworker (a history and philosophy major) brought up things like poetry where audio loses information like the structure
As someone in the animation industry, the amount of men (mainly tech bros) who have no clue about how animation works but are convinced that they know exactly where and how AI will be implemented is astonishing. Don't even get me started on the tech bros who think AI writing is good enough for books/screenplays. They are too disconnected from the artistic process to be able to imagine any practical use for AI, and too arrogant to see that their "solutions" often times require more work to implement while yielding worse results.
There are practical uses for AI!
For example you can use AI and machine learning to understand 3D protein structures.
For remote sensing to identify individual trees even from satellite maps.
Very true! I mean I genuinely love AI and think it has a lot of potential to be very helpful, it's just that a lot of these tech guys are very uncreative and also WAY overestimate what it can do :/ it's funny bc the manager in the OP is not a data guy, he's a business major at a tech company. He's just the people person. And my coworker and I are data scientists.
Even in the creative fields, AI can be useful! I saw a video about the version of Spiderverse the other day, and they would use AI to do some of the first passes of the lining and such, and then it would be tweaked by artists, which is less time-consuming than doing every frame by hand.
