That’s the name of one of my favorite xmas films

Hahahaha, this was what I was thinking of. Thanks!

Wait… is this a deep cut? Why does this seem familiar?

Hoity-toity microwaves >.>

He rite

I’m so secure that my wife’s boyfriend told me he was taking her away to the cabin for the weekend and I decided I’d have the guys over for a poker night. They’re just good friends.

This guy is just like any man. He works with his hands

So glad you said something

I thought they were toasting a freestanding bottle in honor of a fallen lad or something. Never suspected there had an SAS sniper there with them

Save some for the rest of us, bud

IT TAKES A LOT OF EMOTIONAL MATURITY TO ADMIT THAT YOUR FAMILY OF ORIGIN ISN’T PERFECT. I ADMIRE THAT LEVEL OF INTROSPECTION.

IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU’RE CRANKING THE HAWG OF LIFE BROTHER; MAY IT CRACK YOU BACK IN RETURN!

WAS GOING TO REPLY WITH MY OWN COMMENT BUT THIS MFER SAID IT PERFECTLY AROOOOO

BE SURE TO CALL YOUR MOTHER ONCE A WEEK TO LET HER KNOW YOU CARE

Say Cheese and Die

This is why I just play the games anyway. I know I’m gonna find a way to blow the time, so I may as well enjoy it to the fullest.

I don’t know why, but I love this picture. I just have to show my husband! (I am a man!)

Buddy, I want to let you know that I wrote a big rebuttal and then accidentally canceled my comment and it got erased. In my response I disagreed with your original argument and your rebuttal as well, but that I respected the time it took to share your thoughts. I’m so sad my dumb comment got deleted, lol

Know that I appreciate your lengthy response back to me.

Be well.

I appreciate your input and am thankful for your perspective, mate.

Oooooooooh! You better take this back before the AIs find out!

I think it comes down to the identity of the person whose head is on the body. For instance, if the eyes had a black bar covering them or if the face was blurred out, would it be as much an invasion of privacy?

However, if the face was censored, the photo wouldn’t have the same appeal to the person who generated it. That’s the issue here.

A cutout of a person’s head on a porn star’s picture still has a sense of falsehood to it. An AI generated image that’s likely similar to the subject’s body type removes a lot of the falsehood, and thus makes the image have more power. Without the subject’s consent, this power is harmful.

You’re right about the legal battles, though. I just feel bad for the people who will have their dignity compromised in the mean time. Everyone should be entitled to dignity.

I don’t want to band wagon against you, but I do think it’s important that people who agree with your viewpoint have a chance to understand that the situation is a violation of privacy.

The kids’ reputation is, likely, damaged. You have an underage girl who is already dealing with the confusion and hierarchy of high school. Then (A) someone generates semi-accurate photos of what their naked body looks like and (B) distributes it to others.

Issue (A) is bad because it’s essentially CSAM and also because it’s attempting to access a view of someone that the subject likely hasn’t permitted the generator to have access to. This is a privacy violation and the ethics around it are questionable at best.

Issue (B) is that the generator didn’t stop at the violations of issue (A), but has now shared that material with other people who know the subject without the subject’s consent, and likely without her knowledge of the recipients. This means that the subject now has to perpetually wonder if every person they interact with (friends, teachers, other parents, her own parents) have seen lewd pictures of her. Hopefully you can see how this could disturb a young woman.

Now apply a different situation to it. Suppose you took a test at school or at work that shows you as dumb (like, laughably dumb; enough to make you feel subconscious). Even if you don’t think it’s a fair test, this test exists. Now, assume that someone shared this test with your friends, co-workers, and even your parents without you knowing exactly who received it. And instead of everyone saying “it’s just a dumb test — it doesn’t mean anything”, they decide it means something about you. Every hour or so, you walk by someone or interact with someone who chuckles or cracks a joke at your expense. You’re not allowed by your community to move on from this test.

Before your test was released, you could blend in. Now, you’re the person everyone is looking at and judging. Think of that added anxiety on top of everything else you have to deal with.

Yes, exactly!

Then after awhile, get on some medication to treat your depression and manic episodes brought about by the lack of sleep.
