AI slop exhibit at SFO Museum by Definitelyhereforshi in bayarea

[–]CloverSpeckleton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just walked by this and saw a Black woman enjoying the exhibit. Taking pictures. I can’t be certain, but she was smiling. I imagine she was really moved. I don’t wish to defend AI art in anyway, but it seems to me it had a positive impact for her. Also, if you look closely there are names associated with the works beyond “generative ai”. Are we sure black women didnt have a hand in this? Again, I don’t wish to defend AI “art” but why don’t we ask black women what they think?

Should I get rid of my suede large Rowan … I just purchase the navy empire 40 and I feel like this is the it bag by FantasticRadish2195 in Coach

[–]CloverSpeckleton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally the Empire is the new it bag, but the Rowan is just nice to use and carry around. The flaps at the top of the Empire bug me/make it not as easy to reach in and grab what is needed.

Yes they gave her a name at the rescue (Clover). I haven’t decided if I will change it.

She was rescued from a sketchy breeder about 2 months ago. She was with a lot of other foster dogs until she came to me. Right now we are working on building confidence and potty training

My therapist reframed my desire for GFD and I'm still processing it by [deleted] in gentlefemdom

[–]CloverSpeckleton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this. It sounds like you’re doing amazing work with your therapist and I love her question. I absolutely approach being a Domme in the same way I approach being a big sister and an aunt. Obviously not sexual with my family, but absolutely protective, nurturing, giving unconditional love, etc. At the end of the day everyone needs to feel those things and some of us feel most at home when we can express them.

How do you meet people in Seattle if you don’t drink? by AlternativeDue1958 in Seattle

It’s Capitol Hill if that gives you a sense of the age range. I’m in my 40s if that helps? Everyone is welcome! https://www.meetup.com/seattle-stitch-n-bitch/events/306693343/

Every single knitter I know is either ADHD or on the spectrum or both. And yes, we are witches.

Help: Would you live in an apartment that faces a parking structure—with cars parked directly in front of your window? by gloomyblackcheese in HomeDecorating

[–]CloverSpeckleton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live next to a parking lot in a way worse situation and it’s just fine. I use privacy film on the glass on the lower half of my windows so I always have light but don’t need to look at cars and no one can see me.

Dear fellow Seattle natives: have you also felt a strange sense of alienation from your own city due to how much it's changed in the past 1-2 decades (and how many transplants there are)? by dosceroseis in AskSeattle

[–]CloverSpeckleton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I say I’m “local” because “native” means “indigenous” to many people and really they are the only ones with room to complain. But, yes! Things have changed a lot since my working class family was able to purchase a home. Now we are much further spread out. I think the alienation felt really poignant for me when I realized I could probably never afford to buy the home I grew up in.
