I just finished Act 1, and it's already made me gasp and reduced me to tears.
The story is really imaginative and well told, and they really nailed the character expressions and mannerisms.
I grabbed Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 for £10 to see what the fuss was about, as I'm not normally a fan of FF style turn-based combat games.
Damn, this is good.
The Labour government hates children domestically, murders them abroad, and subjects trans children to both.
Tapping the sign, on IWD, if your feminism isn’t intersectional and that must include trans women, you’re not a feminist
And it isn't a healthy obsession.
“Gender-critical” transphobia now costs every woman athlete £185 if they want to compete in an international competition.
Well done transphobes, this is your doing and no-one else’s. Trans people have long been saying that transphobia would harm cis women. We were right, people just don’t listen.
There's a lot of other factors.
For example, many people assume AI wrote something if they see an em dash, because earlier models used em dashes a lot.
That's a real pain for professional writers who use em dashes (see my prior post).

With the, "It's not <X>, it's <Y>!" pattern?
The problem with any ways of spotting gen AI is that the LLM has taken all of the things humanity has written and smooshed them together, looking for the most common/correct patterns.
It was trained on a lot of professional writing, hence all the emdash
My placard from the London Trans+ Pride protest march last year!
This is an important article, especially as the mainstream media in the UK frequently reports that everything is fine and transgender people are just making a fuss.
When you're sending out an email to all members, celebrating an important victory, it feels like using AI to write that email robs us of all the humanity and work that real people have put in.
We're already members, so there's no need for perfect marketing copy.
Please just be authentic.
These checker services aren't always correct (they sometimes flag professional writers for not making mistakes), but they're a decent fallback check.
Really disappointed that the email I received from @zackpolanski.bsky.social and the @greenparty.org.uk seems to be AI generated.
The circled phase is such a giveaway once you recognise the patterns that AI generates.
Please can we be better?
I say that as a member and advocate. 💚
Social media bots don't get to vote in actual elections.
The last speech has ended, and the protest is ending with a few protest chants such as "trans rights are human rights!"
A speech has been made about media bias - mainstream media not presenting trans voices, protests or prides, but willingly presenting Tommy Robinson's march.
A reasonably large turnout - roughly 50 to 100 - have turned up to today's protest.
Some photographs of placards from today's protest.
We're in Nottingham today to live report on this.
The RCP have arrived early, setting up a small stand next to the nearby White Rose store.
LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE MOVE IN THE ANTI-TRANS GAME IS DESCRIBED IN DETAIL AT THIS VERY PUBLIC CONVENTION THAT THEY HELD
And there are cis people out there who still think the anti-trans movement was somehow a natural, grassroots expression of legitimate issues.
The EHRC has met regularly with transphobic hate groups over the last five years but not once with any trans-led organisations.
It is neither an equalities nor a human rights organisation, it is a transphobic hate group.
My partner recently lost his job and I am still unable to find work. If you've ever used the Combat Wheelchair in any way, please consider tipping me on Ko-Fi. It would really help a lot. Thanks 💜
A movie I've seen at least 8 times.
Should be a good thing, so why am I afraid to find out what is said? 🙄
I struggled HARD until I discovered numbing cream, which made it bearable - just. That upper lip though, especially just under the nose... 😭
Yeah, for real.
My most recent tattoo, the artist warned me could be painful due to the placement.
I just smiled and relaxed. It was nothing compared to electrolysis on the upper lip.
All the people being apologists for associates of Epstein—aren't you the same people who scream "think of the children" any time a trans person is mentioned?
I did offer him a way for the character to continue play, but as the player put it - it's the point of flaws, eventually they kick in.
I'll miss the quirky druid, but I'm also really looking forward to meeting his new character as we approach the mid point of the campaign.
