@LifuLifuVT I have about 40 different bottles of hot sauce. Each has a unique flavor that pairs well with different stuff. Always need the next one to try to have one for every different thing I eat.
Some stories never leave you.
Earlier this year, @Blashernaandez1, @FluckThisGame, and I traveled to Chattanooga as part of the 50 Veterans in 50 States campaign organized by @itssozer to surprise Marine veteran Jimmy Grimes and share his familyโs story.
Jimmy served our country in Afghanistan, became a police officer, and started his own plumbing business to build a better life for his family.
Then his young daughter was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.
This weekend, she passed away.
No parent should ever have to experience that kind of loss.
If you have a moment today, please keep Jimmy and his family in your prayers.
This is why we tell veteransโ stories. Not for clicks. Not for views. Because the people behind them matter.
Rest easy, sweet girl. โค๏ธ๐บ๐ธ
@LifuLifuVT That is about the most grounded stance anyone can have about this debate. Do your own thing and stop attacking people is my thoughts on it.
@Kitten_Pauws That is about the most gatekeeping statement I have seen in this whole AI debate. Apply the same logic to model artists. No skill to be the personality of the stream stay out of the Vtuber scene. Now, only people with their self made avatar can stream. SMH
@powdury@arraveri Its all good. Ignore them and let them fade away into obscurity. Like scribes that railed against the printing press, they are only harming themselves by not adapting to the technology. The Anti-AI crowd is not worth the effort of engagement.
@KitsuneMizuki 1: Empowering non-artistic people to be able to put their ideas into the world. Have an idea but not the ability to visualize it, AI can do it.
2: Points out all the same think, simple minded people that don't understand cultural or societal evolution.
@thevivafrei The sheer vitriol in the comments is an overwhelming tell. To react in such a way to someone having a different opinion than you is a mark of fragility. Argue the points, discuss the evidence. Great. Might change some minds. Attacks won't, that's for sure.
