German court rules that OpenAI violated copyright laws by training ChatGPT on music 🎵

• May set precedent for Europe AI copyright uses

• OpenAI disagrees & can appeal

See, look, U.S.A., it's this easy

(and should have been done immediately upon the knowledge that these cheats and grifters were STEALING our work)

Yep! Exactly this!

Content warnings are essentially the same as knowing what ingredients are in your food, so you can choose to avoid that particular meal if it's got something in you that's gonna give you a bad time.

And that's okay! Not every meal/art piece is gonna be made for you in mind.
I've been thinking a lot about the purpose of Content Warnings as an accessibility tool. Knowing a story will involve scenes/themes of violence, bigotry or sex doesn't 'ruin the experience', it gives people the chance to decide for themselves if it's an experience that will hurt them or not.

Speaking of SLARPG... here's a piece I've had in the works for a *long* time but just never came around to posting.

Finishing it just had me stuck, as I was going through a lot.
But there it is, finally~

Super Lesbian Animal RPG is an excellent game and you should play it. <3

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Autistic ways of saying “I love you” (that you might miss):

- “I researched your problem. Here are your options”

- “I made a spreadsheet/ list/ plan to help you”

- being ourselves around you (infodumping, not masking etc)

- “Here’s a meme that I think you’d like”

I don't think I've come across a poem that taps into my ethos when it comes to navigating queer community within the context of a hostile world as much as "We Have Enough Dead Friends" by Lena Oleanderson.

I strive to make my home a sanctuary where other faggots feel safe and cared for.

Yes yes yes. A reminder that it is normal and expected to have periods of growth, periods of rest, and periods of doubt.
