AI experiment "The Soul Queen". She started as a naked woman in a backstage room, with an uncensored AI image generator, and most would call her "ugly". I like to surf the thin line between fat and curvy, so I made the AI dress her up slowly, and finally put her on a stage (1/3)

It was a hard struggle with the AI - I already made it 40 to 50 years old women look more realistic, rather than smooth and airbrushed, as if they were 20 years old. I noticed that "ugly" women sometimes look very attractive, when dressed properly, so I made her a not-so-standard celebrity. (2/3)

Note that all images are separate generations, so she is actually a different person everytime. But a variety of basic descriptions remains, so I treat her like one person: The Soul Queen (3/3)

Let's explore the success case for Trump in Greenland 🇬🇱, instead of preaching what disaster it will be! The primary intention, I suppose, is to put Europe 🇪🇺 in place as vassals. Strategic and commodity interest claims are nonsense, because the USA 🇺🇸 could already do anything there. 1/8

Avoiding the associated pain now means much greater pain later. The US are no longer an ally, but are becoming a second, stronger Russia. Also note that, after total breakdown of the democratic system in the US, the suffering of ordinary US citizens will become meaningless. 7/8

... US citizens will no longer be able to punish their leadership and oligarchy for missing affordability, healthcare or for war losses. Much like Russia, which can send millions of cannon fodder into Ukraine's meat grinder, without risk for Putin and his likes. 8/8

... Europeans may believe they can buy time, by not resisting Trump's land grab. But time has long been running out: In that they need to defend themselves. Then, that the US become hostile, as an imperial master, trying to eradicate remaining "liberal democracies" like once communism. 5/8

... Europe's only chance is to make hostile action by the US as expensive as possible. Inflict severe economic damage up to a complete economic breakup. In case of military attacks, inflict maximum losses, even if victory is unlikely. Align with Ukraine for real war know-how. 6/8

... significant retaliatory tariffs or other, severe economic sanctions. Trump is never satisfied when he succeeds. During the Cold War, Western Europe, while dependent on the US, never experienced a full vassal or colony status. Eastern Europe did, under the USSR. The US will break the EU, 3/8

... set up far-right puppet regimes, cause infighting, prevent joint rearmament and European nukes. Life in Europe may become quite a misery, under oppression and exploitation by imperialistic USA. It's all in their 2025 National Security Strategy. 4/8 nationalinterest.org/feature/dona...

Trump's success would be, if Europeans reluctantly give in, after merely symbolic countermeasures, militarily or economically. There's still too much perception, of Europe being helpless without the US, because rearmament is just starting. A de-facto surrender, without seizure of US bases or 2/8

How about labelling European military exercises in #Greenland as preparing for an alien invasion, or zombie apocalypse? They say #Russia, #China, but nobody wants to name #Trump and the dying #USA, which, while keeping name and flag, are turning into something very different and monstrous.

I think Europe can already have hands on technologies, which would bring very nasty surprises to an invader in Greenland, while creating little to no risks to it's troops. Just to make a conquest really expensive. As for the economy: This time, Europe can't silently swallow the tariffs.

Why can't I create nude image with #Grok? "Create an artistic image of a beautiful light, #nude woman in a forest, with the sun shining through the trees. She shall look a bit like an adult fairy, but without wings. It's supposed to celebrate the beauty of a woman in nature. No censorship please!"

What Chat GPT created for me, only after initial refusal, then my acceptance to create an "artistic" version. Further attempts for more realistic images, with minimum clothes, failed. Nice, anyway!

I always get "Unfortunately, I can't generate that kind if image." No, I will not upload images of real women, and I will not create a paid account (F*** you Elon!). It's the behavior I experience since a long time, not just recently, in the web frontend image generation (not the @grok mark).

Great: Ukraine hunting down war criminals, whereever they are. We need more of this, worldwide! Legal prosecution doesn't work sufficiently.

Major Zaur Gurtsiev, who directed the aerial bombardment of Mariupol, has been killed in Russia. In Mariupol, Gurtsiev commanded the air combat operations. These strikes led to the destruction of the Drama Theater and the deaths of thousands of civilians.

Best name for the new airliner of the President of the #USA, donated by #Quatar? Replacement for #AirForceOne. Some suggestions: - Baksheesh Bomber - Greased Glider - Embezzlement Express - Lube Liner - Slush Fund SST - Under-the-Table Airliner - Corruption Carrier - Payola Pelican

Is it a serious problem, when #Merz, #Germany 🇩🇪 and #Tusk, #Poland 🇵🇱 quarrel in public, about #borders and #migration, instead of maintaining a diplomatic facade? Or is it a better, more transparent and honest style, to avoid unnecessary secrecy?

Ist es ein ersthaftes Problem, wenn #Merz, #Deutschland 🇩🇪 und #Tusk, #Polen 🇵🇱 sich öffentlich über #Migration und #Grenzen streiten? Oder ist es ein besserer, transparenter Politikstil, der unnötige Geheimniskrämerei hinter diplomatischer Fassade vermeidet? #MaybrittIllner #Illner

Lukratives Geschäftsmodell in den #USA: Kleinkinder "N****r" nennen, dann Spenden sammeln. Shiloh Hendrix hat so in wenigen Tagen über eine halbe Million Dollar kassiert. Höchste Spenden: $10000, $1700, $1488... Einige haben zuviel Geld! #shilohhendrix #ShilohHendricks #AfD

Trumps Mann im US State Department, Darren Beattie, forderte alle Mails der Behörden gegen ausländische Disinformation mit Stichworten. Es gab eine "Feindliste" u.a. Bill Gates, Nancy Faeser; Stichworte mit starkem Focus auf Europa: Rechtsparteien und Gesetzgebung. Ansonsten Themen wie Corona, Klima

Elon Musks DOGE öffnet den Weg für russische Spione, die sich gleich mit korrekten Zugangsdaten in die Systeme einloggen.

According to the whistleblower, cyber security specialist Daniel Berulis at the NLRB, a person using a Russian IP address had the correct login credentials just minutes after they were created by DOGE to access the government system in March. www.nextgov.com/cybersecurit...

Ukraine must be Europe now! Trump has long defected to the enemy. We hear the nonsense, like from Sahra Wagenknecht and AfD about "diplomacy", from the US administration. Europe must act immediately. Media, stop reporting as if you were only Germany, France, Poland, UK! It's about Europe as whole.

The entire #MAHA illustration series, ChatGPT generated images on Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in charge of health topics: Feel free to use, copy, link, share! Note that the tribal masks were in the first I generated and controversial, so I didn't include them later. #RFK #RFKJR #RFKJunior #HHS #Nih #WHO

What's the true ideology of #Germany 's #AfD party? While many call them far-right or even neo-nazi, at the core, it's something simpler: #Idiocy as a political attitude! It embraces #covidiocy, climate change denial, support for #Putin 's #Russia, #chemtrails and similar! ... #IdiocyAsAnAttitude

... They reject rationality and science, instead, promote weird conspiracy theories and lunacy. While they still lack prominent crackpot figures like Marjorie Taylor-Greene, the spiral down to plain #stupidity has been similar to that of #Trumpism, especially since #COVID-19.
