Tomorrow, the House of Representatives will vote on a bill that bans gender-affirming medical care for any transgender person under 18, and threatens any medical professional providing this care to youth with 10 years in prison.

Tell Congress to protect trans youth and vote NO.
Protect Trans Care Now
As wave after wave of extreme measures to criminalize and strip trans people of rights and safety continue, tell Congress to act.

nothing can put a bigger smile on my face than reading that Microsoft has to scale back its AI ambitions because NOBODY uses copilot.

tldr, no, I don’t think that “oh, they’re just using it in place of google” is really a good shield of criticism for using AI when the research and brainstorming phase is one of the most fundamental blocks of making something, no matter how much you dislike how time consuming it is.
Research and early development is part of the process. I get good, better, or entirely new ideas while doing the barebones research into artwork that I'm starting. Automating that with Gen AI is shooting yourself in the foot, because you're sort of removing a big chunk of the brainstorming process.

KOSA has been defeated several times already and they keep trying over and over until the one time it goes through, at which point it becomes everyone's problem. It will be an unmitigated disaster if this passes and they say, well, sorry, now it's the law. Make sure your creature votes No on this.
Hey romancelandia and fandom peeps! If you live in the U.S. right now you should know that KOSA (along with a slew of censorship bills) are advancing through congress right now. If you care about spicy books and/or fanfiction you should contact your reps right now and tell them to vote NO on KOSA!

Since Polygon is leaving it out of the headline: Epic Games partnered with The Game Awards to put money into the pocket of a bigot who uses her wealth to further the genocide of trans people through lawsuits and legislation. Every 'free' game gives money directly to JKR, and they are complicit.

I believe that, in no uncertain terms, A.I. as we know it today is a technology designed explicitly to destroy consensus reality, undermine human labor, and estrange its users from other human beings and ultimately themselves.

I do not use it and will not accept its supposed "inevitability."

If you get hogwarts legacy free on epic, you are actively supporting JK Rowling and her crusade against trans people.

For all the mouse/duck/goof fans out there:

I truly believe it's time we start creating our own stories/comics/fanfics/etc. (public domain or not) with the toons we love, cuz now with a corpo that owns them fully investing in gen AI we need each other more than ever

while KOSA passed the subcommittee, there is still the full committee meeting it needs to go through before being voted on by the Senate/House

support is more split on it than you'd think, we just need to pull away enough votes to block it. CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES!

No. Stop playing Fortnite. They're partnering with Rowling and Harry Potter in 2025, with full knowledge of what that decision means. Stop supporting them. Stop playing the game.

apparently from what I heard people are more worried about whether or not they can still like characters from the game and not the literal victims of a groomer dev and the fact that someone is actively having their life ruined over calling out said groomer holy shit you people are so pathetic

I am beginning to debate never making (or, at least, never publicly showing) Deltarune fanart ever again. If you fucking assholes are willing to swat someone over your precious fucking fangame that a child predator worked on, then you don't deserve anything.

i don't know if UTY is "problematic media" or not and frankly i don't fucking care. there are REAL PEOPLE GETTING HURT because this fandom would rather go through crazy mental gymnastics to make sure they can still like the game than listen to victims.

abuse victims are not safe in this community.

its all “respect victims” till it personally affects you

like, im half certain that if one of the victims from the uty dev stuff comes out about being uncomfortable about people liking martlet/other characters people are gonna dismiss them and say “i can separate art from artist”
