I’ve received some client work/commissions lately who told me they tried make art with AI, and they hated the result so much and were turned off of it entirely, and decided it was worth paying an artist for a proper illustration, and idk I’ll admit it bandaged my faith in humanity a bit ☺️

Remember how the "retail theft crime wave" disappeared as soon as companies had to do their annual reports? That's because it's illegal to lie to shareholders.

AI is booming (if you're a pleb) but if you have money - Goldman Sachs will be honest with you instead web.archive.org/web/20240629...

why do porn accounts keep doing that thing where they follow some rando and expect to be followed back? does that ever actually work? I once had one who repeatedly followed and unfollowed like trying to get my attention bitch I am surviving on ramen and spam, I can't afford your photo set

I think a lot of interpersonal conflict specifically in internet spaces also comes from the discomfort of just disliking people. But it’s very normal to dislike people. It’s natural and it is not something you need to examine for it’s morality.

I always liked how Secret of Mana did it, with numbers starting off small and getting bigger as damage values went higher. When the damage numbers went up a font size, you FELT your characters (and the monsters) getting stronger.

I think every generation has myths it tells about itself. This is why older people are often upset that "Boomer" is now so frequently used a pejorative; it was the generation that famously said never to trust anyone over 30, and now they're the people folks under 30 definitively do not trust.

"Leave if you don't like it" is super funny because I know how racists act when they run out of minorities to oppress -- they turn on each other, or even invent whole new minorities, or engage in never-good-enough purity testing on each other. Their whites-only paradise is pure fantasy.

I see it as a win/win. If they stay and pay, then we get free school lunches, public transit, and infrastructure. If they leave, then that's one less money-poisoned abhuman weirdo meddling in local politics and spreading gentrification and generally being a magnet for corruption and idiocy.
