Is that a breed with those ears? I’ve never seen a cat with ears like that before

Wow I love this!
The face detail and expression is excellent
I had fun with this one, it’s a bit messy though In my head there was a heavenly light pouring out from the grocery store. I’ve never used my marker pen before so decided to try it out, I like the feel of it

That was an accident, I wanted him curious but it didn’t come out
I don’t often shade with brush pens, and I’m rusty on my lining, but I had fun

How long did this one take you?

Surely that can’t be uniform random though
But they’re just using it for a seed, so the output would be impossible to predict, but it feels like a checksum or something would approach a Gaussian distribution (the more numbers you add up, the more Gaussian it would be, since we know an image will have a mean and finite variance).

Wha-eels? Do those come from the river?

If he's anything like my cat, anything and everything, sometimes just to announce where he is.
If he misses bathroom time before bed he goes in front of the bathroom and puts his head up and howls.

It's beautiful!
This is what the bots get for their expansionism. If they keep taking over the galaxy there will be nowhere for our children and our children's children to settle.

Is there evidence of this happening?
And if so, I think I would just plug it into an old router via ethernet with no external connectivity.

The monkeys paw will surely curl when they also ban students from attending the March for Life in Ottawa right?
When I was in school my school sent us every year pitching it as a free trip to Ottawa.

Yeah I remember when they rolled that out… it does not give me hope for the future of privacy.
Canada needs to really ramp up our privacy laws, I’m not crazy about GDPR specifically, but there needs to be something more substantial here.
Hey all, I hope this post is okay I'm currently going through a very high anxiety moment and have been having panic attacks all weekend. I'm still in one. I've got a doctor appointment scheduled for next week, but I need some encouragement and advice to calm things down right now. I have avoidant anxiety. When I was a student and I started having panic attacks for the first time. I couldn't force myself out of the house and stopped showing up at work and got myself fired and failed out of my classes. It took me years to recover. I found a therapist privately back then and did CBT and it helped make things manageable enough that for years things were okay. She's no longer working, and I specifically avoided drugs then but I think that was a mistake. I've been working for over a decade and have been carefully managing my anxiety with only a couple incidents. I worked in small companies, then did independent contracting, but now I've been in corporate jobs since COVID. The last couple years I've been really struggling with my anxiety. As soon as everyone started doing mass layoffs and tightening the belt I've been struggling hard. The last few months it's gotten exponentially wise, and it's beyond my ability to manage. I can't focus anymore, sitting at my desk gives me a panic attack every day, then I fail to meet my deadlines, so I stay up all night pushing myself, which boosts my anxiety. I feel like I'm on a treadmill running full speed, but I'm tired, I can't breath anymore, I have that feeling if I run anymore my legs will collapse. But I'm on a treadmill, if I fall I get wrangled and crushed, even though I know I can't keep running. Man I just need someone to say they know how I feel, that I'm not alone, and to help me push the next week until my appointment. Edit: thank you everyone, you all helped me through that moment and I'm feeling clearer right now. You said some things that were what I needed to hear, with concrete advice, and I can't express how much I appreciate that. It's going to be a rough week and I have a lot to think about
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre stepped into the debate over trans rights on Wednesday, saying "biological males" should be banned from women's sports, change rooms and bathrooms. "Female spaces should be exclusively for females, not for biological males," Poilievre said in Kitchener, Ont. The Conservative leader made the comments after being asked if, as prime minister, he would introduce legislation to prevent "transgender women" or "biological men" from participating in female sports or entering female prisons and shelters. "A lot of the spaces … are provincially and municipally controlled, so it is unclear ... what reach federal legislation would have to change them," Poilievre said. "But obviously female sports, female change rooms, female bathrooms should be for females, not for biological males," he added.
