Last night I met a guy who said everyone in his office uses ChatGPT "because you just type in two lines and it generates a whole email for you!"
And I *very correctly* replied that "no one wants that 'whole email' they just want the two lines - and they all hate you"

This just reinforces my conviction that reporting a crime of domestic violence to @garda.ie still carries a significant risk of its own that they'll dismiss you, or quietly take the side of the abuser. Gardai supporting a man who beat a woman doesn't exactly inspire confidence.
Solidarity with #MargaretLoftus & absolute shame on the Gardai who testified on behalf of a violent abuser. Margaret commended the women who’ve gone before her. Survivors increasingly break anonymity to call out the traumatising, misogynistic legal system.

From 2012-2022, I was fully back into Batman: The Animated Series & the associated comics from 1992 to 2006 💕 I had stopped when Return Of The Joker killed my man, but then Arkham Asylum games got me right back in again ✨

Trump says he'll impose a 10% tariff (rising to 25% in June) on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the UK, the Netherlands and Finland, because they've sent people to Greenland, until the US can buy Greenland.

If someone built a tool allowing strangers to create sexualised images of children, we would shut it down immediately.
So why is the government treating X and Grok with kid gloves when their products are causing so much harm?

I'm somewhat tired of pretending that trans women using women's changing rooms and bathrooms has ever been a problem, as entire legal systems contradict their own precedent specifically to deny trans women dignity and serve up sacrifices to gender-conservatives and bigoted religious groups.
The court ruled the NHS trust did indirectly discriminate against and harass the nurses by allowing Trans+ people to use single sex spaces
