Oh man those are absolutely stunning! I love stained glass aesthetics and these are just So Good.

That was the agreement I had for ragdoll’s sister. I paid all regular expenses, breeder paid breeding-related expenses. Except… my girl never put out. So all the tests? (Heart ultrasound $$$) Money gone and nothing to show for it.

Does anyone have tips for how to proceed? @kikidoodle.bsky.social perhaps? (sorry to tag -_-;)

It's simple, AI companies should have to license the copyright of the art to train their programmes on it, just like a TV show or advert licenses it to use it. If that makes AI financially unviable then so be it, it's an absolute novelty and people are already over it.

My fingers are crossed for the magpie; he’s absolutely gorgeous and magpies are one of my favorite birds.
