I bring a real 'actually people who are pregnant do deserve some special consideration because they are effectively at least temporarily disabled if not permanently after some complications' vibe to the party that a lot of people don't seem to like
Genuinely, I think the most publicly visible AI advance so far this year is how thoroughly and abruptly the "image generators can't do legible text" problem has beem fixed.
For those who haven't been paying attention, this is a recent ChatGPT output. It can do this sort of dense sensible text in images totally one shot, so don't rely on bad text to identify AI images any more.
Was the text also generated? was it generated before, and given as an input, or was it generated with the image?
The text was its own invention.
Here is the entire interaction that produced this image:
I've seen other people do much more sinister things with this! You can produce 100% realistic fake screenshots of news articles, tweets, that sort of thing, if you can convince the bot it's kosher to do so.
poor Tara Knight, if she'd only waited a few months technology could have caught up to her vision <3
Unoriginal sin. Derivative sin
look im all for talking about the politics of one piece and how it stands out when compared to contemporary shonen jump manga, but you guys gotta take off the kid gloves at some point. things fishman island being about how the correct way to fight racial injustice is petitions or skypiea portraying the colonists "explorers" as destroying trees the indigenous culture sees as sacred being a good thing because it prevents disease really shouldnt get glossed over so easily. i am sick of seeing people say it makes no sense for transphobic people to be fans of one piece when it has two (extremely okayish) trans characters, ignoring the island of transmisogynistic caricatures. every other arc the straw hats ultimately fight to either restore or maintain the proper lineage on the throne of whatever country they are in.
one piece has fans with conservative politics not because they dont "get it" but because one piece has far more liberal politics than its progressive fans want to acknowledge. that doesnt mean you cant like it but stop pretending its something it isnt.
one piece fans arent the only ones who do this because if fpr anything to get massively popular it needs to have mass appeal, and that means politically, while it cant be explicitly centrist (that just pisses off everyone) it also cant alienate anyone, so it will have a mix of conservative and progressive ideas, but none too extreme. And for better or worse (usually worse) that IS the average person's political beliefs, which includes a lot those making popular art. Its like how Breaking Bad expects you to get that Walt justifying his mistreatment of Jesse on Jesse being an addict is bad while not really humanizing most addicts in the show. See also Walt's racism and misogyny and how the show portrays most racialized and female characters. Near anything that gets meaningfully popular will have both conservative and progressive fans who assume it completely agrees with them and the other side just cant read, but the truth often is both are wrong.
Im thinking of all this because on twitter theres discourse about this well intentioned art of frieren killing a racist thats means to mock racist frieren fans for "misunderstanding" frieren. And im sorry, but i dont actually think its a result of poor media literacy that racists think they agree with a character that says there is a race of people who look human and act human but thats actually deceptive and they are inherently evil and the only recourse is killing them. There certainly are parts of frieren they are wrong about, but i dont think they are incorrect when they see their worldview recreated in frieren's view of demons.
i think if you see a story where a character says there is a group of people who are inherently violent and dangerous and need to be killed and that character is consistently proven right, and you dont get why racist people might like that story, you might be the one with poor literacy.

I feel like a lot of people get "All Art is Political" confused with "All Art is made with Political Intentions" which is not the same.

yeah yeah rainbow capitalism is bad and whatever but like. when I was a child, being pro gay was not the popular or lucrative choice. I'm happy that times have changed.
I miss rainbow capitalism. I do. I miss when it felt like public opinion was still pro gay. I understand it was always an empty gesture, but it mattered in a sense of knowing how socially acceptable being queer is. If that makes sense.
spockÂł
inspired by this new favorite picture of mine
realized i never posted my spock :D i rarely do illustrations, but this was homework
iâm just⌠so tired of reading posts complaining about problems that only exist because people wonât read romance novels⌠it is a huge genre there are books about werewolf dukes, there are books about black revolutionary war soldiers, there are books about south asian doms who care about enthusiastic consent, there are books about shape-shifting cowboys who turn into bears, there are books about lady scientists learning how to trust that their boundaries will be respected, there are books about alien barbarian warriors, there are books about genies, there are books about women of color in victorian london, there are books about polyamorous earls, there are fake marriages and marriages of convenience and basically every fanfic trope that people lose it for exists as a book with original characters but some of the same people who complain about how books no longer satisfy them turn a blind eye to a whole genre because it never occurs to them to read a ~bodice-ripper~ when they could read romantic fanfic of a more respectable genre instead
look, if you:
donât wanna read about two people falling in love and fuckinâ
just wanna read more about some specific characters
good news! this post is not about you. here are some posts i have seen with great regularity on this site:
no one who writes original fiction is capable of writing good sex
no one who writes original fiction understands tropes
original fiction doesnât understand kinks
too many books are about high-stakes things and not enough books focus on character development and interaction
all of which is blatantly and on the face of it absurd to anyone who reads a lot of romance and which is what this post is about. it downplays and devalues the good work being done, especially by marginalized authors, in the romance space. authors should get paid! authors should get rewarded for originality! if you read a shitty romance novel once, i donât care! so have i! iâve read a lot of shitty books in a lot of perfectly good genres. if you can spend three hours sifting through pairing tags on ao3 to find the one fic that doesnât suck, you can look through ebook previews to find something that looks good.
âbooks are expensiveâ is almost a compelling argument, except that romances and mysteries are two genres where ebooks go on sale for $1-2 with startling regularity. my bookbub emails regularly get ebook boxed sets with tons of different books by different authors going on sale for a buck, which is a great way to find new authors. most authors have newsletters where they let you know about sales and send out freebies. and if your library has overdrive, you can request books. you donât have to just⌠see they donât have it and give up.
anyway, hereâs books:
will i ever stop recommending courtney milanâs brothers sinister series? literally never. if you prefer contemporary and donât mind first person thereâs also the cyclone series. if your local library does not have at least one courtney milan book i will be shocked. donât worry about it if theyâre not the first in a series. you can read it out of order. thatâs how romance novels work. lots of her books also go on sale for the low price of free on the regular, especially the novellas.
alisha raiâs forbidden hearts series also rules.itâs got starcrossed lovers, itâs got feuding families, itâs got hatefucking, what more could you want
alyssa cole has never written anything bad in her entire life, iâm pretty sure. you want historicals? you want contemporary? contemporary but thereâs still sexy dukes? post-apocalyptic? pick your poison, enjoy.
i just read this one recently and now i need to read all the other cat sebastian books iâve acquired over the years because whenever a book is a dollar and looks like this i buy it immediately (itâs literally a dollar right now). this graphic was very helpful and i wish more authors had ones like it. itâs 2019, bring back web banners for link pages.
i discovered six de los reyes when courtney milan recced beginnerâs guide: love and other chemical reactions and iâm really interested to read more of her books. also it made me realize iâd never read a book that took place in the philippines before? no one fucks in this but itâs really cute and sweet and involves a hyper-logical lady scientist, an artist/barista/bad boy, a coffee shop, and Making Out For Entirely Scientific Reasons.
bound with honor is the only book iâve read from the regency reimagined series. the reimagining seems to be that itâs very bisexual and polyamorous and everyone fucks a lot and also thereâs bondage. i am cool with this. i actually bought the whole series at some point?? i⌠should read these.
i havenât gotten around to reading tess boweryâs treading the boards series (i have bought so many books) (i was not kidding about the one dollar sales) but iâve got high hopes because look at them
kj charles is⌠prolific. and another author whose books i havenât gotten around to despite owning a lot of them. i actually just bought that one on the right, just now, because i saw that it was a dollar when taking this screenshot.
Iâve only read Tess Boweryâs books but I recommend them!!
Holy crap! Thank you so much. Iâm amazed to be that kind of company - so many amazing romance authors and so many good books. <3Â
As a quick ref to my Treading the Boards series - the setting is 1811, the characters all work in or adjacent to the London performing arts scene.Â
Rite of Summer is about escaping the thing you thought was forever â what happens after the grand romantic gestures. (m/m, then m/m/m, back to m/m again.)Â
She Whom I Loveâs main characters are an actress, a staymaker and a ladyâs maid. Honestly, my favourite way to solve a love triangle is polyamoury. (f/f/m)Â
(Short-listed for two Bisexual Book Awards - best erotic romance and best romance.)Â
That Potent Alchemy stars a dancer and a backstage effects expert. A tagline I regret not using: âgender is also a kind of performance.â (m/nb)
Iâve been on hiatus for a while as I finish up my Ph.D. But! Iâve turned in a draft, and Iâm defending this summer, which means that I can get back to finishing the fourth book, Robertaâs Folly (f/f). Iâm hoping to be able to release it next spring.Â

You guys I just realized that what Iâve always wanted out of werewolf fiction is a story where lycanthropy isnât a purely human condition
Like this dude wakes up from his wolfbender and his room is full of all these fucking chickens from local farms that he initiated into his pack. They all start clucking and crowing at the moon and when itâs full they all transform into these tiny little weird bipedal wolves with wings.
I donât remember making this post but itâs going around again and Iâm losing my shit
Imagine becoming a werewolf because you got attacked by a fucked up chicken
A wildlife rehab centre discovers that one of its patients is a lycanthrope when the full moon hits and their wolf transforms into a slightly different wolf.

My friend just sent this in the group chat, we got the new gay or European 2026 update
A rigorous diagnostic. 15 questions. One uncomfortable truth.
okay.
I got the reverse
I want to live in this fantasy world where systemic spousal & financial & parental abuse magically donât exist, or that married people are incapable of neglect because the law says you canât. no fault divorce is extremely new and not universal, and marriage has been, for centuries and still today, a tool used overwhelmingly to oppress and abuse women. unless youâre trying to save someone from being deported or need their health benefits to survive I think this is recklessly bad advice, particularly when youâre directing it at young people who are unlikely to have independent financial security. this is like telling people to buy a house because itâll improve their credit and give them the ability to pass property off to âtheir heirâ without ever mentioning the 2008 financial crash or predatory loans or property repossession or the fact that many homeowners are drowning in debt
