No one can ever imagine what a victim/survivor goes through each day existing in an environment with a perpetrator of abuse.
From the moment you wake up you are anxious, you are thinking how do I safety plan today. How do I keep my kids safe. How do I pacify this abuser. You are a soldier living in a war zone. You know there will be a consequence when you decide to leave.
Leaving shouldn’t be lethal!!
The system must do more to protect women and girls.

@meganroseruiz Have you had your iron levels checked?

@superdrug wash bag fricking ridiculous, the tags holding the zipper in place are so tight you have to cause damage to get them off

[Lindsey Carr @Little_Robot]

@VendettaBella Oh mate, that must be difficult to manage and still keep making. I particularly loved your recent pieces, if that's any help? 🖤

Is it really useful to wait for stability etc to put this kind of fair pay model into place? Anyone who wants to undercut artists in this system to save a few quid is going to do it anyway. Anyone who wants to use a model ethically is literally unable to atm.

Thought for the day

As far as I can tell - There is nothing stopping an artist collective from officially hosting open source AI image generators and adopting a 'pay for the prompted artist' model.

[Lindsey Carr @Little_Robot]

We can't roll back time on existing models, they're already downloaded to tens of thousands of machines. Even if future training removes artists from the dataset, anyone with a modicum of technical ability can take one of these models and finetune it on an artists work.

@ali_can_kut @spectatorindex ah...no...that is not what it does. Have you actually ever - used it?

@ali_can_kut @spectatorindex Do you honestly believe chatgpt is a giant look up table containing every single possible response to every single possible question?

Kelly Barnhill's gloriously subversive book about an artist mother who marries a crane is out in the US today, UK in April. I've read it, and it's brilliant. Very pleased to have done the cover art and be part of this dark story.

[Lindsey Carr @Little_Robot]

@kellybarnhill It was a pure pleasure! I love the book

@SoVeryBritish Accidentally acknowledge someone on the train to work one morning, they then have to acknowledge you back. Then the 2 of you remain caught in mutual acknowledgement every morning forever

@JoshuaKGordon @x71n3 @ginnyhogan_ A tale of his ex wife and how she shafted him for all his money and made the kids hate him?

#instagramdown This cursed fecking app, my account along with seemingly thousands of others was suddenly suspended and any attempt to re enable gets stuck on a loading screen

@caitlinmoran I get mine from a chemist in India, it works out at about 25 quid and lasts 3 months. Super long lashes
