As with the rest of the week, I'll be bring light to things that need to resolved or fix so I'll be posting a tribute with the article as my way of showing that we can stay true to what the core message of this account is and highlight something that is equally important to me.

@EliAfriatISR Waiting for the world to take a knee and they are absolutely silent as usual. On another note, I finally understand the timeline problems when people are having panty bunching issues. oops...

Happy Wednesday! Best thing about Jurassic Park is the predators were loud, obvious, and for a short time contained behind fences. None of that sneaky stalking a minor's habits nonsense. In the words of my favorite commentator, 'Let them eat cake, douche bags.' 😇

Do you guys have reports of adding a watermark, the overlay is softening the whole image causing a soft blur? In fact, making any change. I usually remove illustration labels and text but sometimes it still pops up. Normally, there is no issue removing it but everything is adding an overlay and it makes no sense.

On the watermark issues itself, I looked it up to make sure I wasn't missing something. The information reports:

Subtlety vs. Blur: Effective watermarks use reduced opacity (typically 20–50%) or a single solid color to remain visible while allowing the underlying image to show through clearly.
Purpose: The goal is deterrence and attribution, not aesthetic softening. If a watermark looks like a blur, it suggests incorrect opacity settings or an inappropriate style for the image.

I'm happy to verify if something is inappropriate but i try to tell it to use the same font as the illustration with the same aesthetics/color palette.

Approximately 5.5 million British citizens live abroad, representing about 8% of the total UK population. Broader Diaspora: If including descendants of British ancestry living outside the UK, the total "British diaspora" is estimated to be between 140 million and 200 million people worldwide. Curious on what the UK's immigration policies should focus on? Sounds like that is enough to change the tide for people of the UK. 🤔

@RavenGrace0613 Any moment now, all the panicans can have something meaningful to focus on. lol...

JUSTICE FOR HENRY NOWAKL

I’m a proud grandma, a conservative, and a proud American. I don’t need anyone’s approval anymore on the things I support — the ones that are genuinely worth fighting for.

My heart goes out to that family in the UK. I hope they get real justice. And I pray that people over there — and around the world — finally wake up and hold accountable those who have been hurting their communities, their families, and their way of life for far too long.
