Sure, but that’s not my decision to make. The ask was for other communities that are not politics focused. If people want to gather in one of those over another, that’s their choice not mine. I just listed some I’m aware of, that’s all.

Luckily we can do both. Push for better air quality, but don’t dismiss achievements that happen in other areas at the same time.
Some of these communities are more active than others, so if you do find them interesting/valuable please post.
Maybe some do, but mine just looks like this:
They are, but their stems and centre piece are plastic, which just ends up in landfill or litter. A reusable brooch is more environmentally friendly, but at least now they have paper stems and (im assuming) paper centre pieces so when they get thrown away they’re not so bad.
Yes and no. He’s had more serious roles like Life, Safe House, Buried, Smokin’ Aces etc. He certainly has a ‘type’ but at the moment it feels like you could just lift-and-shift his character from one film to another and noone would notice.
One thing I do find nuts is that the poppys have only just moved to paper stems. Every year they’d be busy handing these things out only for the plastic stem and centre to end up in landfill. I bought one of the reusable metal brooch versions a while ago, and just wear that each year, but it’s sad that the disposable nature of them wasn’t taken into consideration when they were designed.
I’d like Ryan to return to more serious roles. He’s a decent actor but he just ends up playing the same character in everything at the moment; he’s getting predictable and typecast imo.
You into masks, baby? Kinky! I like that, baby, yeah! Behave!

BROTHER, MAY I HAVE SOME ICE CREAM?
Exactly. You’re not missing anything. This is just an example of typical media headline bullshit.
Johnson’s memoir came out in the U.K. on October 10 but is expected to arrive in Brussels only later Monday. Waterstones’ only shops outside the U.K. are in Amsterdam, Brussels and several Irish towns.
The delay means that European officials will have to wait another few hours to fact-check Johnson’s claims about the Brexit negotiations and his (at times difficult) relationship with EU leaders.
So it’s delayed, not actually ‘not on sale’.
Well, can they?

I’m not sure I understand your point. Are you saying that fan art cannot, by it’s very nature, by classed as original and therefore shouldn’t be able to be sold?
I have yet to meet any artist with this kind of deep anti-AI sentiment
Unfortunately this isn’t the case. Just look at the anti AI discourse from people like Steven Zapata or Karla Ortiz, or the discussion on platforms like Mother’s Basement or Art Cafe. There are plenty of artists who absolutely believe that AI art is worthless, without merit and is coming to destroy ‘real artists’.
I think that’s an overly simplistic description of how LLMs work, but I take your point. My response would be: how is a LLM trained on other artists work any different to a human artist taking inspiration from other human artists? Is an artist who creates fan art of Batman also derivative? In your argument it’s a clear breach of copyright, so should we be going after anyone who has ever drawn a picture of Batman as having broken the law?
You forgot to mention ‘AI slop’…
