I knew it would have a certain spin, coming from Quadrant, but I was not prepared for the level of errors in that article...

I won't let myself believe it's actually happening...

Yes, I feel really dirty speaking so kindly about a bank

I hope so as I bank with them. They do a lot of work in the community and don't invest in fossil fuels.

Just gonna say, if you feel this way, you need to stop using AI.

My suggestions are too powerful

Regarding cops' treatment of mental health crisis - yeah, its not safe.
I remember a video a couple of years ago of someone in Tas having a v bad day (possibly in psychosis), not listening to police instructions and the cops dealt with it by ramming him with their car (to laughter of onlookers)

Fuck I love that movie

Well that's a bit awkward

Yeah my kids aren't waiting until 9pm

And Santa's not allowed to pelt lollies at children from the back of his ute any more because safety, so now they all have to line up on the oval 😂

That's amazing! I want one!

Photograph of dry Tasmanian bushland, with she-oaks and gum trees. The light is low. In the distance, a hill covered in trees is illuminated by setting sun.

Spending time in my childhood home 💕

Close-up photograph of a Tasmanian echidna, walking on moss and she-oak needles. The echidna has bits of clay all over it from burrowing.

Another close-up photograph of an echidna, sniffing the air as it emerges from its burrow.

Macro photograph of a small, round, white flower with bright yellow centre. The petals are short and 'papery'.

Took a lazy walk and I'm feeling grateful today.

Ah yes, I'm sure it cuts deep to be reminded of this moment of pure love and joy

Heartbreaking. Wtf is wrong with people

It's bizarre. It's such an easy thing for most people to do.

Any healthcare setting makes me doubly cautious about masking, but especially anything LC related

Fuck. Going to unnecessary effort to insult people

This is actually never going to be over, is it. Not for decades. The repercussions of what Israel is doing and the West’s full support are as heinous as colonisation and Nazi aggressions. No one will be safe from this insanity as it sets the standards for the new normal

Dehumanised in the genocide by Omar Sakr Arabs aren't people, they say. I delight in this for l have seen What people do. I do not Want to be among them. Let me die an Arab, a sore Animal hungry for God- Or any measure of grace.

Dehumanised in the genocide

No experience but if you end up planning to order one let me know. I have wanted one for a couple of years. From what I hear it's a bit complex organising shipping so it's better to get a few people involved to share cost and hassle

The rubbish AI images don't fill me with confidence

Wow, thank you for sharing. What a ride.

Then we learn to write and all of a sudden the b that we just wrote backwards has become a DIFFERENT THING (d). And often children will easily mirror whole words or sentences in a way that is really difficult to adults who have practiced left to right orientation for many years.
It's fascinating!

Does he also reverse letters when writing? Quite developmentally common up to around 8yo. Aside from writing (and Lego), things are still the same if they are oriented differently. We learn the shape of something. Maybe the colour. It is still the same thing when mirrored.

Thanks, using tools like this saves so much time :)

I responded to the original post because alt text had not been added (it wasn't my post!).

In this case, I think it was relevant to provide the original text from the screenshot because reading that exchange was the point of the post.

Thanks, I have that on :)

In this situation do you feel the text that I added in my comments was appropriate? I'm always interested in improving.
Obviously, replies are constrained by a much smaller character limit than alt text, so it doesn't read as smoothly.
