I'm not sure what you expect school districts to do about gun control.
Have a voice and some agency..
Take any sort of stance? Other than "sad AI."
The bird ir glad.
That wolf has a spare hand on his shoulder.
That's less disturbing than the otter who appears to be holding a cut off arm to comfort the bulldog. Perhaps he's offering it as a snack?
And the woodpecker is kinda into the whole deal? Why is he smiling?
Who's limb is that River Ridge!?

That bird is strangely satisfied by the whole thing. Definitely smiling. I know where I'd start looking for the perpetrator.
Beaks are rigid, BEAKS ARE RIGID, I'M INNOCENT
Most Americans find a school shooting to be mildly infuriating
It would stop my nation for weeks and there'd be massive reform that everyone would get behind. The entire population would make sure it should never happens again.
The numbness about school shooting is one of the big things that convinced me to leave. I was never that good at being an American anyway, at least we have an excuse to suck at being Brits
In Canada they're currently bulldozing a school because a school shooting happened there.

Thank God there have been enough school shootings in the past so we could learn how to be creative in our grief. /s
They weren’t even being creative. It’s AI slop. To commemorate another school shooting. He future is bleak.
I am over 500 years old and I have never once in my life seen someone dangle a pendant from the bottom of their t-shirt like that. Is this some new fetishwear that I'm not furry enough to know about?
I think its ai slop of a dog collar
Fits right in with the disembodied limbs and creepy satisfied woodpecker
Hello 500-year-old Eldritch being. I am a furry with almost 20 years in the community. This has nothing to do with us and everything to do with artificial intelligence. Sloppification. If you were wondering, yes they do browse e621 and other websites and vacuum up the data from them.

I don't have a problem with the sentiment behind this picture. I don't even have a problem with the AI art style. But don't people critically examine their work before using it?
How hard would it have been to tell the AI "Hey, please remove the extra hand on the wolf's shoulder? It doesn't belong there." Isn't that a thing you can do?
The main problem with AI slop isn't that it's slop, it's that so many people think the raw slop is acceptable without any refinement.
or they could get a human artist that understands life to do it.
But that will take time. We need to get this to the Facebook pages before then next disaster. We don't want to be the third most relevent school shooting in the algorithm. /S

How can i show that i don't actually care, but have people say, "it's the thought that counts? “
It's something you can do, whether the AI will do it is another matter
Something like this should have more thought and intent behind it than "let's just ask AI to do it"

Why is there a heart on the dog's crotch
For the same reason the otter is holding a dismembered arm, it's just ai slop.
The wolf on the right has a paw on its shoulder
Are you saying it's not normal to dislocate your arm to give yourself some self love?
Considering that its left hand (right side from the viewers' perspective) has a thumb on the side turned inwards, away from us, it stands to reason that the other hand would have one as well, on the opposite side facing us. But the paw on the shoulder doesn't have one. So that's a second left paw.
I suspect it's holding a dismembered wolf's left arm with the right, behind its back and reaching up, which would also help make it feel more like someone else's paw.
I'm pretty sure that putting a dismembered arm on your shoulder is a bit odd.

What is it about AI characters and their facial expression that bother me? Is it because they try to use them in very complex context but can't convey anything more than an emoji? There's this creepy feeling like their eyes stare into the void.

Hmm, if only something could be done about this guns-in-schools-obliterating-children problem 🤔
The NRA clearly values guns more than human life. This is some seriously fucked-up sick agenda.
My job sends AI slop like this every morning.
Like a AI art thing with our logo, followed by dumb shit like "Labor day fun!" Or "school is in session!"
How's your spam folder holding up?
The comic sans really lends an air of solemnity to the whole thing.
the state has consumed countless terabytes of furry porn to bring you this content and yet you act like the establishment sacrificed nothing
Did I miss another school shooting? Or is this an older one?
"There have been many school shootings. You will have to be more specific."
It used to be by number and city they where known now it's not even that. The deaths of children are becoming less and less important.

I've been hearing AI radio commercials more and more lately and while they don't actually sound bad for annoying commercials I wonder what all of those voice actors will do now...

Capitalization is also wrong. The school district needs to quit its job as a school district.

Pray harder. Prayers are like bullet proof vests for children. Conservatives have been trying to convince us of this for years.
What is this furry shit? /s
