Now when you call stripe you can ask them if this is okay and why

Award-winning pain researcher here. This is not something that can be done. Hope this helps.

Literally if I see a book/game/music/whatever with GenAI art I just assume the other parts were generated also. It makes you look fucking cheap and lazy.

weird phenomenon i keep encountering where “writers” correctly identify the soul-sucking danger that large language models pose to their craft, but for some reason have no problem using generative AI to make images. like….are you stupid!!!!

I've seen people do it to real actual people like, early on in my transition watching vlogs by trans people on youtube and often enough there'd be someone in the comments calling them bad rep like it wasn't a real person's real actual life.

I have also seen this with like, artists drawing trans characters with visible tells or features associated with transness and I guess that's kind of the same thing.

I guess trans is sort of a body type, or like, related in a way.

The boxes are such bullshit. We gotta get rid of the boxes.

Anyway trans pregnancy is one of those things that for me personally has been a lifelong fear even long before I knew I was trans, and now that I'm no longer physically capable reading about it in fiction is kind of enjoyable.

I still don't want kids myself but a lot of people do and that's fine.

I'm sure people will be able to think of examples but please use your reading comprehension to understand my point.

I think there's a subset of trans people who really struggle to differentiate between 'this thing would make me, personally, dysphoric' and 'this is a thing no trans person real or fictional should be portrayed doing' and the fact of the matter is almost nothing fits into the second category.

They won't get the chance because I gave up on dating years ago.

If a guy did this to me it would fucking ruin my life.

still very fat even though I'm eating the same if not less than before
maybe I'm not doing it hard enough and I need to be running but I have downstairs neighbors

I have a little treadmill and I've been trying to stop being so sedentary by committing to walking on it some every day and I've been doing it for a few weeks.
So far none of the stuff that's supposed to happen with exercise is happening.
depression: worse
energy levels: bad
headaches: more

Also buttered noodles when I'm sick in a way that I cannot handle spice. This happened when I had covid.

The rice and bean thing is also struggle meal territory since it's cheap as hell.

Rice with kimchi and a fried egg. If I have other veg or protein ready to go I put that in too.

I'll also sometimes throw a can of kidney beans into a pot of cooked rice with whatever seasonings I've got and it's filling but the flavor is kinda whatever.

Three panel journal comic titled "Whining". Panel one has a label that says "Sometime in the late 1990's..." And features a young apricot. Their hair is long and unruly, they are missing a baby tooth, they have a prominent lazy eye, and they are sweating against an orange background that suggests a hot summer day. apricot says "It's hot out! I'm tired... and I'm thirsty! Ugh!" In panel two, apricot's slightly older and much more well kempt sister looks back at them and says "Stop whining. Just drink your spit for now." In panel three, apricot's face has contorted with bitterness as they say "THIS DOES NOT QUENCH THE THIRST, SISTER."

INFORMAL POLL: Were you ever told to do this as a child? By a sibling or anyone else when you were complaining about being thirsty too far from home?

I've been getting a lot of mixed reviews on the universality of this particular childhood experience LOL

Got this one a lot on road trips from my older brother and maybe my parents too?

Suddenly all videos on youtube are unavailable? At first I thought something happened to the specific video I wanted to watch but no, it's all videos. WTF?

This is cool after the war on everything called “porn” by platforms and payment processors. A machine that stole all your words can generate and sell “erotica” but you can’t haaa

Crypts and Cantrips chapter 16 page 20. Kitov and Jhonos discuss what makes one a good detective and conclude that it's a person who can notice and interpret small details. They then enter the town's central square where there is a gigantic feather taking up a large portion of it..

God I accidentally slept for 12 hours. I was hoping to finish the commission I'm working on and be able to take more before starting drawing chapter 17 but now I don't think I'll have time.

Finally some good news.

IDK I was taught phonics as a kid but I think it was my mom and not school.

I've heard of this before and I don't know how the fuck anyone ever thought teaching kids to guess words was a good way to teach reading.
And it's apparently the main thing we do?

Psst, hey kid. Wanna see just a little guy?

That's technically a spoiler, since it's supposed to take readers a bit to realize that.
