Weird. I think the slop generator was influenced by British "toad in the hole" pictures - though that still wouldn't explain the grill marks.
Amusing though the images are, I don't think I'd buy food from an establishment with such advertising. Or at least, it wouldn't be my first choice.

I also liked this Defector rant (linked in the Futurism article): https://defector.com/you-should-never-be-the-most-sycophantic-participant-in-a-conversation-with-a-chatbot

Use "cases" to define piecewise functions, and "hfill" to fill horizontal space. Here's a shorter example of what you're trying to do, which should give you enough of an idea.
\[
\begin {cases}
\hfill 0, & v\lt c \\
\frac{F(v)}{F(c)}, & v\ge c
\end{cases}
\]

I use fedilab as an alternative phone app. It does quote toots (although I might have needed to configure some settings first).
Love the Scottish Greens posts, btw.

There's a theory that metal oxide particles (including aluminum oxide) in the upper atmosphere might reduce global warming. I believe that opinions are mixed about how safe or effective this would be (if at all). I think it's generally agreed that even if a cooling effect is achieved, it would be accompanied by global dimming.
I'm not a climate scientist, but "global dimming" seems like it might be harmful to the ecosystem. How much metal oxide would be required to cause such effects? I don't know! But as you said, it's a massive uncontrolled experiment.

I believe this was Robin Hood's publicist from that Disney movie. Coincidence, Rooster??

So the primrose path leads to dalliance with fairy folk! This explains much

Can't a cat do a little genealogical research without causing an international incident?!? https://nzhistory.govt.nz/media/photo/new-zealand-tunnellers-mascot-snowy-cat
