The sexy Watto meme is proof that gen AI is dumb. First, it’s inherently funnier that a real artists took the time to draw sexy Watto. Second, gen AI could never come up with anything so haunting or execute it in such unhinged ways.

I haven't watched Episode 1 in a hot minute but I'm pretty sure this is about how it went down between Watto and Qui-Gon

I release hotto into your care, that he might flourish in a life of his own

i heard something about sexy Wattos and had to come back and see for myself

Time to post it again.

ADHD has a history stretching back to at least the early 1800s, with the first distinct description appearing in 1902. ADHD appeared in clinical manuals in 1952 in the first edition of the DSM. But none of this matters to these fascist fucks because history doesn't matter to them.

Here's an alternate fantasy author who isn't an absolute cunt: Ursula K Le Guin

adobe deleted their post so this one's for posterity

the way to stop people doing nazi shit is to create an environment where doing nazi shit immediately gets you jumped by six guys, do not pass go, ass kicking first and ask questions later. every goth & punk bar on god's gay earth already figured this out in the 90s

There is one final leap Democrats must take to impede this coup and give us any chance of recovery: They must accept that Republicans are bad people. These elected officials have the power to stop this, but they are choosing to let the crimes continue for their own power. It is the essence of evil.

The easiest way to permanently kneecap this Trump administration is to put 95% of your efforts towards delegitimizing Elon Musk. Is Trump/MAGA ultimately to blame for all of this? Yes, but torching Musk will lead to his ouster and Musk isn't going to take it well Keep pushing

A little motivation for your Sunday from David Lynch 🤍

That trailer for 28 Years Later is genuinely one of the best horror trailers I've seen in a long, long time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcvL...

Heard people were calling him The Adjuster.

Yeah Ton', it's me. The thing with our friend at UnitedHealth? It's done.

As I’ve been saying for over a year: If your business model doesn’t work without violating the law, you’re not in business — you’re in organized crime. Great reporting by @elainelow.bsky.social. theankler.com/p/tv-writers...

this will sound very tin-foil of me, but I think we’re getting all these reboots and live action remakes to keep more culturally relevant messages from being heard through entertainment If we’re all busy staying nostalgic over past repeats, that time is less spent on learning about today’s matters

hopium take: the more turbulent these early proceedings are, the more likely it is that the clown car pops a tire on the way to the circus and turn on each other

a wild Zweilous appeared! made this guy last year as a character exercise at work! #pokemon #fanart

just a little guy repost! #conceptart

this fucking sucks

Don't use AI images. Don't use them for your pfp. Don't use them for your banner. Don't use them for memes.

Some old concepts I did back in early 2007 for Pirates of the Caribbean : At World's End ( 2007 ). From ' The Art of POTC ' by Timothy Shaner. 🏴‍☠️ #pirates #piratesofthecaribbean #disney #conceptart #art

learning that reposting is a thing over here. I like making critters like this #conceptart #creaturedesign

"Onyx" The black dragon Onyx guarding her treasure hoard in the ruins of Xak Tsaroth. Painted in acrylics for the D&D 2024 Dungeon Master's Guide!

okay! gonna be more active here, have some old personal #conceptart from awhile back (2020 I think) - - - - revenant guard; the only warning of it's presence is a whisper of cloth over stone, but by then it's too late

I’m gonna wake up and keep trying to do good and so are you and no one gets to vote on that.

Always 💖 Don't make me tap the sign

being able to sit and draw more for myself now I have my new chair is a game changer its so nice to not have my shoulder aching constantly

I got my new chair yesterday and now my back can feel so much better I'm so happy T_T

Look, I'm willing to try anything at this point.

Having a lot of trouble making art lately. I want to; I have all kinds of things in my head I want to draw. But I can’t do it. It’s like I don’t love it right now. It’s probably burnout?

“AI” is the culmination of the tech industry. Every time you use it, you destroy the environment, erode labor protections, endanger workers overseas, enrich the ruling class, and make something unforgivably worthless, all at the same time – and it's all hidden from you in a frictionless distraction.

The best hotel beds are the ones that make you look like a medieval king on his deathbed when you’re in there, you know what I’m saying?

Had to aggressively prune my dragon tail plant today after a couple years of growth I let go unchecked…hopefully I didn’t traumatize it too badly 🤞

Somebody just left a chainmail coif on the free table at work and it’s mine now let’s fucking goooooo

How to filter out AI Images in Google Image Search. Sharing this with my students so I figured I'd also share it with everyone here. Hopefully this image is still relevant given Google's changes. Save this on your computer or phone and refer to it as needed.

I'm really struggling to understand what people think GenAI would help with on the screenwriting or novel writing front. If we wanted to lower the quality and double the amount of films and books that are made, we could EASILY do that with the books/screenplays submitted by humans TODAY(1/?)

Still soul crushingly grim to me that the people who invented large language models’ first thought wasn’t “we can use this to get people to do less grueling paperwork” or “we can effectively automate taxes” but instead “finally, something that will crush, dehumanize and factory farm all art.”

This sums it up perfectly. It’s not a conversation.

Caught a late Dune screening last night and now I feel hungover

This is a lie, and it's always been a lie. Something like ChatGPT needs a TON of text in the language you're targeting to train the model. You get it by licensing it, or you by paying people to write it for you, or by stealing it. What they're saying is it's impossible to create CHEAPLY.

every day I feel like I pick the wrong dialogue option in a conversation

You know, aside from how bleak and infuriating the Wacom AI shit it, it might be the most succinct, hilarious and exact example of how genAI will eat itself in the end, and its proponents can’t see an actual future. It’s just pursuit of the bottom line.

trying a new thing where I actually comment on people's posts as a way to combat my intense social anxiety, and this morning I've already started and deleted draft on 3, so it's going great!
