Actually sod that, all that I need is for someone to send me a good shot of the graphics (or even better, the image turned into a graphic) and I can set up a non-profit site for us to order from

If I was a gerbil and Foucault made an extra pair of hands grow where my nips should be I'd be pretty aggrieved, not to say addled.

The money for a baseball shirt (darker blue sleeves, white body) in a comfortable large size is awaiting the transfer order.

I'd love one of these, I like the Grimbut Gerbils ones!

I'm off to weed the plot I havent lost.

If any t shirts are developed in the meantime, I'm in.

I'm crap at tech stuff like that. I have no idea what the difference between an image and a graphic is. All I did was download the original drawing file then upload it on here. I can probably download the original 1. Something mb png files rather than the smaller jpeg ones i downloaded which I can email. You can send me a pm me on here with a throwaway email.

But this was litrally what I wrote on Copilot if you want to see what it will do for you

Can you draw me a mug, a baseball hat and a tshirt with "Foucault Addled Grievance Gerbils" written on them

Can you draw me a teal v neck tshirt with "Grimbut Gerbils" written on it

Just name changed for t-shirt ordering. Don't want my other name(s) to be identified if I am seen out and about wearing one. Never know when Aston may resort to scraping data from doorbell cameras, or CCTV ,or drones, or satellite images. Scaring myself here. I'll stop.

Is it possible to get a Grimbut Gerbils in teal with long sleeves? Thanks.

I'm off to do much less productive things including sorting the recycling bins. Can't procrastinate any longer.

Is it worth starting a "Grimbut Gerbils" post to sort out orders and queries? And to eventually post the t-shirt shop link!

Exciting!

I'm in for a t-shirt, please 🙏

As an American, I'm not at risk, cause that ocean and our First Amendment.

As pointed out by me and several others, this technology could potentially be used to identify women in the US who had illegal abortions.

Grimbut Gerbils of the world untie.

Yay.

Well this thread took a turn for the researchers. What about a PhD in The analysis of Gerbil imagery in the non linguistic discourse of feminist anarchists?

I have to admit I have no idea what you gerbils are on about. Or what I am for that matter. But it would be interesting to decipher…..

Are we the gerbils now?......Father!

You is funny

This has stopped me buying the full versions of various bits of software. I always think, if this bit doesn't work here, what guarantee is there it'll work in the full version? To me it makes more sense for the free version to work perfectly & the full version to promise tempting extra facilities. Then I'd trust them enough to cough up. But give me buggy freebies? Nah.

(I'm in the market for the T-shirts btw, they're lovely! Scoop or V, please!)

First thought: Put an identical chandelier in & sue the AI.

Second thought: Your front room has been scraped.

Third thought: You have a giant rat in your armchair??

Fourth thought: You ARE a giant rat.

Fifth thought: Must. Get. Off. The. Internet. Right. Now.

Change rat to cat and yes, yes I do.

+ + There really is a song about every subject under the sun! + +

You are correct

I know... here's the one which inspired my username:

He wasn't as handsome as me ... preen...

@Boiledbeetle have messaged you about the downloadable files...

And in the meantime, I am about 3 hours (that is three leisure hours when I am not meant to be working) away from making this something you can buy. (The more complex ones will take longer). Sorry can't do v-neck and teal...

Also can I just praise my husband who turned round the graphic in 10 min and is also very onside

You should hopefully have four gerbil related emails!

I'm down for one. Long sleeved. Winter PJ top. The upstairs of our house tends to the fucking freezing.

DH, poor sod, will be completely baffled.

And @AlisonDonut fabulous phrase.

Bloody love FWR.

I'd never heard that song, or of him!
