about the AI thingy.

Honestly I do not necessarily care if theyre using AI or not but ill do care about the quality of the AI generated images, ill do care if AI can look good but theyre not using the full potential of the AI tool theyre using, will i be disliked for posting this? Yes. Do I care? Absolutely no. Before I continue if theyre using AI or not is their decision alone NOT YOURS or OURS, its none of youre business how they creating they're posts, but what should be criticized is the quality I mean THE quality of it, also before you all come after me ill use AI for myself since years prompting takes ALOT of time, ALOOOT sometimes even hours to get the most perfect output image or video, its not THAT easy like you imagine and im Honestly tired people thing that it takes not even 3 min it takes longer every single time, even more if you want to achieve an high end quality up until to 8k without the extra hands and fingers (what only happens if youre using an free version of an tool or the lowest subscription after my experience) so before you judge avakin for using AI or anyone else, SIT DOWN and try it yourself. Im not joking, Try it. AI Artist's are Artist's end of the argument.

Where is the Creativity?

They're failing the game, thats why...also i dont know if anyone noticed but the clothing ingame store? Repeating themselves over and over again, same colour palette, same style no creativity, no customization and uniqueness, thats for sure one of the main reason people leave the game, THE creativity is gone, theyre using AI in the crown packs promotion banner and dont even do it well, I have almost 5 years of experience YOU can do well with AI if you know how, they simple do not care, they go the easy way, the lazy way....but when is enough? When do we finally realize this game will be landing in an trash cane if the players not doing anything? Avakin life has so much potential but theyre absolutely do not use it, they rather keep staying in their comfort zone.

.

Im asking myself every single time when I look at the new releases, WHERE is the Quality? WHERE are the colours? (No i do not mean the awful neon colouring they have given us) WHERE are the different style directions like Gothic, Fairycore, Hippie, Clean Girl etc? you can do so so much i mean for what does pinterest exist? For what do we have brains? Creativity? Im so tired of all this repeating of events, petkins, poses, clothing, accessories the non stop recolouring and the monetization ingame.

.

Also I DO NOT pay 305+ crowns for an animation set OR an dance i mostly will never use, I was shocked when I say those hilarious pricing.

2yo cat, kidney cysts (likely inherited) - heat as trigger? + food/experience tips wanted

My male cat is 2 years old. About 2 weeks ago I noticed something was off with his ribcage — bumps on each side. I took him to the vet, and 2 days ago she diagnosed kidney cysts. His kidneys are swollen. She wanted to do a blood test to check for kidney failure, but I decided against it for now — I was too stressed and shocked in that moment to make a decision I'd feel good about (I have autism, and sudden medical stress like this hits me hard). I may revisit that decision once I've had more time.

I believe this is likely inherited from one of his parents, since it doesn't seem to line up with anything else in his life or environment.

A few things I'm hoping to hear about from people who've gone through this with their own cat:

  1. Heat as a trigger? It's been an intense heatwave here (since good 3 months barely any rain), and my gut feeling is that the heat put extra stress on his kidneys and made this become visible/symptomatic now. Has anyone else noticed a heat connection?

  2. Food and weight gain. He won't touch the prescription kidney food (duck flavor) or the food I give my other cats, but he eats a low-protein chicken paste really well. Not sure if it's the duck flavor he dislikes or something else. I'd love tips on getting some weight back on him and keeping the swelling down as much as possible.

  3. How did it go for your cat? Better, worse, stable? I'd really value hearing real stories, even hard ones, from people who've actually lived this.

A bit about him so you know who I'm asking for: he has the most unique personality — total cuddle bug, gives head bumps constantly, but hisses and growls if you hold him too long (very much on his own terms). We still go on our late evening walk together and he still wants to, even though I can tell he tires a little faster now. His coat still looks good and he's still very much himself.

He's my soul cat and I'm not ready to lose him. Any experience, tips, or hacks are welcome.

Hey for me thats serious(asking mostly mediums)

As soon as I entering an house/room who was once haunted or still is i got mostly an headache (sometimes even after one min after I entered) its around my ears and my temples (always) sometimes it moves or changes position, I honestly dont know what this could be and how to react since its something who is more new, I see ghosts sometimes very clearly in the corners of my eyes but mostly the more anchored ones, I also sense immediately when theyre good and when theyre bad, I also grew up seeing the typical shadow figures in the corners of my eyes, I stopped seeing them over a year ago all of the sudden, instead I see them with my inner eyes (what ChatGPT means is an mild form of Clayvorance) ohh and nauseous and dizziness are becoming a part of it when I was in this building or room for over 3-5min....i really need help from someone cuz I simple are to inexperienced.
