The thing that gets me about actors responding like this whenever they’re asking about JKR is that they always say “we need to learn to agree to disagree ^_^” as if trans people are the ones leading the campaign, when we’re just trying to live our lives while JKR posts about trans hate 24/7

Digital fanart of Ed and Stede from OFMD. Only parts of their bodies are visible through a car window (rolled halfway down). Stede is naked, lying across Ed's lap, their fronts pressed together. Ed is shirtless and has his arm around Stede. Stede has a red heart birth mark on his ass, and anyone walking by would get a decent peek at his taint.
There are three speech bubbles:
Ed: "And what if someone sees you like this?"
Stede [speech bubble is dripping]: "mmh..."
Ed [speech bubble surrounded by hearts]: "Oh, so you'd *like* that, hm?"

No notes

Robin Williams' daughter, Zelda Williams, also recently slammed people who are making Al-generated videos of her late father, calling the clips "gross." She added, "To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough, just so other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop pup-peteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it."

This right here.

This shows that if Israel, with the whole world watching, can treat a well-known, white person with a Swedish passport this way, just imagine what they do to Palestinians behind closed doors.

I think the key to understanding Britain is that JK Rowling’s oddball fantasy about an elite class of special people - far apart from the scum mass of regular humans - being trained by mad, cruel bastards to be weird, unpleasant, superior judgy wankers, is more or less accurate.

I’m getting a sense here that of course the lads want to crack down on the avalanche of racism in our university hate factories, but maybe not if it involves arresting students who go to Oxford, because they are real people who actually matter.

Looks like a new wave of trolls/bots on AO3 going into people's comments and accusing *other* people of using AI. A couple of people in the comments have had the same. If you see 'em, report them for spam

"I don't hear her talking about women's rights, I just hear her talking about trans people." absolutely spot on about Rowling.

It should not be understated how much clever shit like this actually annihilates morale at places like ICE/CBP.

Getting made fun of like this on national television while people laugh at you is.. well, you may call it victory wine, but it ain't.

I love this so much. Funny, sweet, hopeful, and kind of bad-ass.

This is my favorite time of year. I am not fall's favorite human though. Low sunlight sads got me hard today. Needed to draw a tiny comfy Ed about it.

#ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath

Small digital drawing of Ed from Our Flag Means Death. He's wearing an off-white robe and pants combo. The robe is decorated with tiny gold flowers and vines around the hem and shoulders. He's wearing big brown slippers. His hair is down, falling around his face and down his back. He looks cozy, happy. Could be happier, if he had a hot cocoa.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry
