I always come back to how insulting the idea is that I need a plagiarism chatbot to help me “organize my thoughts” and “come up with ideas,” something I am perfectly capable of doing myself and never asked for any help with

I've been swamped with taking on the Cwej30th Anniversary celebrations, which has been an amazing job, but we're nearing the end of the year, and we could use a little push to get us through the bills we have from medical costs creeping up on us.

We spent $450 but we are taking her back to the vet because we think the problem is snuffles. She is still eating little and has low energy
Well we’re back at the vet, so sharing ways you can help us. This one hasn’t been eating properly.

UPDATE: We have to pay $400 which is a little more than we set aside for an x-ray because she probably has a hairball. So again, anything helps. ❤️

Setting aside graverobbing woman who died in no small part due to men exploiting her image, copyright violations aren't "growing pains." It's literally the law. They’re breaking the law. Without copyright law, there is no creative industry, and without a creative industry, there is no genAI.

I loved Between the Lions!
Between the Lions—a PBS children's show complete with puppets and literary enthusiasm—was arguably the zenith of children's media, especially compared to modern YouTube slop.

The thing about Banned Books Week is that so many books are being soft censored, too, and we may never know. Schools in whole states are just not buying queer books and books about race, etc

I’m an Autistic classically trained chef and I wrote a food aversion acceptance cookbook and guide titled COLOR TASTE TEXTURE, that’s all about finding out what works for specific sensory needs and how to customize food for them. It’s useful for all ages, no cooking experience necessary.

An accessible family cookbook that offers solutions rather than tricks to empower the food-averse, autistic, and picky eater, with 46 recipes. This much-needed cookbook combines tips and techniques.....

this timeline is very clarifying, showing 1) right-wingers immediately promoted the idea the shooter was trans before any evidence, 2) someone within (or claiming to be in) ATF leaked false info to right-wing outlets reinforcing that claim. all of these ppl are evil and the leaker should be fired.
