I'm not sure what you expect school districts to do about gun control.

Take any sort of stance? Other than "sad AI."

That bird is strangely satisfied by the whole thing. Definitely smiling. I know where I'd start looking for the perpetrator.

It would stop my nation for weeks and there'd be massive reform that everyone would get behind. The entire population would make sure it should never happens again.

The numbness about school shooting is one of the big things that convinced me to leave. I was never that good at being an American anyway, at least we have an excuse to suck at being Brits

That's less disturbing than the otter who appears to be holding a cut off arm to comfort the bulldog. Perhaps he's offering it as a snack?

And the woodpecker is kinda into the whole deal? Why is he smiling?

In Canada they're currently bulldozing a school because a school shooting happened there.

I am over 500 years old and I have never once in my life seen someone dangle a pendant from the bottom of their t-shirt like that. Is this some new fetishwear that I'm not furry enough to know about?

Hello 500-year-old Eldritch being. I am a furry with almost 20 years in the community. This has nothing to do with us and everything to do with artificial intelligence. Sloppification. If you were wondering, yes they do browse e621 and other websites and vacuum up the data from them.

I don't have a problem with the sentiment behind this picture. I don't even have a problem with the AI art style. But don't people critically examine their work before using it?

How hard would it have been to tell the AI "Hey, please remove the extra hand on the wolf's shoulder? It doesn't belong there." Isn't that a thing you can do?

The main problem with AI slop isn't that it's slop, it's that so many people think the raw slop is acceptable without any refinement.

It used to be by number and city they where known now it's not even that. The deaths of children are becoming less and less important.

Are you saying it's not normal to dislocate your arm to give yourself some self love?

Considering that its left hand (right side from the viewers' perspective) has a thumb on the side turned inwards, away from us, it stands to reason that the other hand would have one as well, on the opposite side facing us. But the paw on the shoulder doesn't have one. So that's a second left paw.

I suspect it's holding a dismembered wolf's left arm with the right, behind its back and reaching up, which would also help make it feel more like someone else's paw.

I'm pretty sure that putting a dismembered arm on your shoulder is a bit odd.
