This is fundamentally unworkable. Lots of people who are not trans get misgendered for a variety of reasons. Do we really want to live in a society where you can only pee if you 'look' a certain way??? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Trans people could be barred from services based on appearance
The new code of practice on access to single-sex services cannot gain legal force until it gets sign-off from ministers.

My most popular cartoon by a long chalk is also oddly niche, in that it mostly appeals to a generation who remember the song it refers to and enjoy the nostalgia for their youth. I can draw one for you if you like.

Also, purely from a selfish perspective for the ppl using ai to do their flirting for them
Flirting is meant to be fun, it's meant to be a fun thing you get to do as a sexual being. If you're treating it as admin to have a machine do for you, that's really tragic

Wow: after 15 years, YouTube has taken down the original 'Rick Roll' video due to a "licensing issue," likely due to the acquisition of Astley's record lable.
The metadata remains, but if you click through it goes to 'video not found':

It’s the time of year when you might find a baby bird and want to help. Most often (and slightly counterintuitively) it’s best to do nothing. Here’s a useful guide.

Pro tip: if you are prone to motion sickness and own an iPhone, go into accessibility settings and enable vehicle motion cues. It’ll add dots to the sides of your screen when it detects you’re in a car.
Usually if I’m on my phone in the car, I’ll feel motion sick but this actually worked for me.

What is the one main thing holding you back. Imagine it didn't exist. What then?
I've used this to successfully change my life.
It was hard to change things I thought were set in stone.
But am so glad I did.

Inside me there are two wolves. This is not enough to control the deer population inside me, which is degrading the river ecology inside me. I’m attempting to release more
wolves inside me to address this, but the ranchers inside me object, and
