Wife brought her 100 year old film camera to that pirates game from a few weeks ago and she got this shot that's just perfect

Oops forgot alt text. man on stage performing at night, illuminated by purple and blue lights, hues of those shades illuminate the entire scene. The lights glow with bright halation due to the type of film this photo was shot on

Look on the bright side, if the supreme court overturns the ban on conversion therapy, it means therapists have carte blanche to start gaslighting conservative straight boys into being transbian cat boy. this is good actually! 🥳🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

holy shit i hate AI-bros. at least they're good at telling on themselves for having no artistic ability or creative vision whatsoever

What if the thing you thought was destroying the environment was actually more beautiful than the rainforest

lot of the criticisms about creative applications of Al are really criticisms of any art form where the artist cedes some degree of control to an external process.

Okay I know I wasn’t gonna post politics but seeing google’s ai search respond to “are you limiting searches on trumps dementia” with “haha maybe!” Is fucking hilarious

Google AI search response to “does google AI mode limit searches on the topic of Donald Trumps mental health”

“ As of early October 2025, Google's Al search features, including Al Overviews, appear to be restricting searches concerning Donald Trump's mental health. In contrast, similar queries about other politicians, like former President Joe Biden, often receive an Al-generated summary. a
The Google Al restriction
• Missing Al summaries: When users have recently searched for phrases such as "does Trump show signs of dementia," they have not received an Al Overview.”

The night shots with the moon above steel tower are my favorites, I’m going to actually plan my next night shooting evening so I can bring my tripod and clearer film (and probably my digital as well for comp/metering estimatio)

Stella Dritta @dritdurfotografin.bsky.social · 5d

I didn’t do any editing on these so they’re coming out a bit more faded/lower contrast for some of them
