This is fascinating. Very interesting! I need to read the book mentioned in the article.

lol what a scoop

To be an artist, you need skills. Skills you do not have. No one stole from you. You just don’t have what it takes.

1. You are not an artist. An artist makes art and spreads the joy of creation. An artist makes art. You make bitching and spread your lack of joy. An artist makes art. You make bitching. What tf does that make you?

2) While you’re sitting in your cave with shit-stained fingers complaining about your lack of ability to compete in a market where people are thriving, you have forgotten the most important thing about art. What is that, Pinocchio? What is the most important thing about art? THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER.

You have no respect for the eye of the beholder, which means you will never GET the respect of the eye of the beholder. You are not destined to be one of us because you cannot adapt to tools and manifest your vision THROUGH THE TOOL in a competitive space, like the good little cog in art history which you ARE NOT. What part of Art History are you building besides your stance as the ant-like, sweaty irritant at the edges complaining that no one seeks you out?

Go find someone else’s joy to shit on, you talentless hack.

How much of this do you think is AI?

I hope they rig that plane to… glow…

Hahaha! It happens

True! Although, for my own enjoyment I could see myself going to the library just to relive the entire experience. Maybe I’d even read it before the sun came up, just to remember what it was like to dread and fear my mother’s company. 😂

Fan art is a huge part of the fandom. I like this. Please remove your entire fist from my ass, you jerk.

It’s literally a still frame from a video.

It’s one of the first Google results of his face. It’s a still from a TikTok video.

CONTEXT: Joe Rogan is pulling a Kanye West and wants to go to heaven before his Republican daddy completes his Hell on Earth.

I haven’t seen the show yet, but the audiobooks are amazing!

for real though 🐇

☝️ This. Exactly. Is it a fantastical tale catered to kids? Sure. It’s also phenomenal, discussing themes from the history of the British Isles. Check out this intro from another of his books in this series:

He’s directly fucking businesspeople now.

My hope for Star Wars died during this scene:

Like, I’ll eventually watch all these spinoff shows and I’m hopeful for Andor (the Mandelorian had some cool moments), but when PETA got ahold of the plot I knew we were too far gone.

Spot on

I watched the first one with my extended family on one of those Christmas gatherings where everyone is trying to pretend they don’t hate each other. To be fair, I watched it a second time on my own to see if the movie was actually better than I initially thought.

nope. I appreciate Chris Evans’ portrayal of a shithead legacy with a grudge, because my real life sets me up to be a guy like that in my real family (which is very much like the fictional family in the movie). It’s just so ham handed, though. Like an episode of a kid’s Disney show from the late 90’s.

And Daniel Craig sounds ridiculous. Good god
