porn created by consenting adults - bad, immoral

porn created by ripping off unconsenting humans of all ages - fine, great even

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

This is cool after the war on everything called “porn” by platforms and payment processors. A machine that stole all your words can generate and sell “erotica” but you can’t haaa

I think it’s just some people making a mountain out of a molehill.

Dgmw the MG line is my favourite line but there’s a gazillion of them as is, so I can happily accept one or two new ones and I’m not fussed if they’re Ver Ka, or not 🤷‍♀️

They make sure nobody else is in the photo, they make sure the language used is highly complimentary, AND they lay out the cover especially to make it look like he has a princess tiara, and all he can do is complain that the pretend tiara is not big enough.

There’s just no pleasing some people.

Trump complains about his Time Magazine cover photo in new post:

"the picture may be the Worst of All Time. They "disappeared" my hair, and then had something floating on top of my head that looked like a floating crown... Really weird!"

You should care about trans rights just generally, because trans people are people, they have always been here and they always will be.

BUT if you MUST put a cis spin on it, this is where transphobia gets you. It's either bodily autonomy for all of us or none of us.

I still remember the household landline number and my aunt's landline number.

Catch me on a good day and I can probably remember the call-in number for Going Live, the number of Saturday mornings spent getting that drilled into my head!

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

I understand the sentiment of "we need to find some way to not all see each other mortal enemies" but it REALLY REALLY needs to be made expressly clear that one side wants to live and be happy and the other side is "that's a line too far and you must suffer and die" and you can't Kumbaya that.

oh no. no. absolutely the fuck not. fuck off.

a bullshit statement from Keira knightley saying she was not aware of a boycott against jk Rowling before taking a job on the new audio series and that she's "sorry" and "we're all going to have to figure out how to live together and we've all got very different opinions"
She can fuck off.

Two stills from “Cat’s Eye” (1983). Top, a woman pushes a coffee dart and the subtitle reads “Coffee or tea?” . Bottom, a man in blue glasses rocking a very thin mustache, a green suit, and blue shades looks up from his newspaper. The subtitle reads “coffer” (sic)

This is how I imagine JK Rowling when she posts.

JK Rowling says "ha ha.. h-heh. I won! I won!" She sits alone in the dark, bathed in the late of her computer screen. We pull back to see her in a large dark empty room. She continues "I won." Seeing the full scope of her cavernous workplace, she appears small and alone. She says, once again, "I won..."

I have trans women friends who’ve been living authentically for decades - how are they going to start using the gents?
I have a tall cis female friend who’s now scared to use ladies loos because she’s been harassed several times.
This code is both cruel and unworkable.
Please write to your MP.

Everyone has a price.

They may already have the money, the house and the car, but no matter how much someone already has, there will always the temptation of even more money, an even bigger house and another car.

Being liberal only means so much in a society controlled by money. 🤷‍♀️

Alex Ries @alexries.com · 2d

What are your theories as to why nominally 'liberal' people like Simon Pegg and Matt Berry are willing to work with Rowling?
