interestingly i think asbestos is still used in very specific situations where nothing else does the job as well, which kinda furthers the A.I analogy. A.I used in very specific situations can be extremely useful, putting it in absolutely everything is not.

I think we are in agreement in much the same way asbestos is still used in very specific circumstances because it's exceptionally good at those very specific roles. It doesn't need to be used in fake snow or makeup. A.I needs to be used responsibly

Star @babystar.bsky.social · 1d

I think A.I has its uses when not used frivolously, if we have to use A.I it needs to be done responsibly/ in a controlled way. In much the same way helium is a finite source yet we still use it in balloons for parties when vital equipment won't work without the stuff.

A.I when not used frivolously absolutely has its uses, but the processing power it needs to do those calculations and pattern matching is A LOT so it uses a lot of resources like electricity and water, that I don't think some folk realise.

I guess the planet collectively running out of fresh water and heating up faster than anyone expected is probably the equivalent perhaps? Not so much on a person by person basis but that we all get the cancer at the same time regardless of whether we smoked it or not. :)

You know...I wouldn't rule that out. The people who have had their art stolen or likenesses replicated...Who knows.

Star @babystar.bsky.social · 1d

When I think of A.I. I think of asbestos. To begin with everyone thought Asbestos was amazing, folk used it in everything. Then they started learning it was dangerous, research was done, they stopped using it, thou for some the damage was already done. Stop using A.I and limit the damage it's doing.

That second pic is just how I eat normally... @gemsdaddy.bsky.social can confirm LOL, you can cut calories significantly if most of the food is on the walls/ceiling/floor/clothes/neighbourhood

Star @babystar.bsky.social · 2d

Yeah found is a bit more...emotionally harder hitting I think that most of my other comics, theres still pages I cant read cause they make me burst into tears..gonna be interesting trying to re-draw those

Star @babystar.bsky.social · 2d

Found was my 1st comic I made. It's about finding love, finding family, finding your strengths and weaknesses, finding what's missing. I haven't drawn it for a while because life got too busy but I'm really glad to be back drawing it. You can read it all here www.furaffinity.net/user/toddler...

Yeah specially to find people doing sex stuff with my asexual character.... just makes me feel a bit messed up in all honesty

Star @babystar.bsky.social · 5d

There's been a weird uptick of people making fake Star accounts, folk creating ai sexbots of Star, folk pretending to be Star on discord. Star is my fursona, shes really inportant to me, heck she is me in a lot of ways, so if you care in anyway about my art/comics could folk quit with that, thanks.

Star @babystar.bsky.social · 5d

This is literally why i pretty much banned that sort of stuff from my telegram chats. Maybe im just old but i just want actual conversation rather than the same topic on a perpetual loop forever.

Star @babystar.bsky.social · 5d

Theres a directory to find kink therapists here www.kapprofessionals.org if that's any use to you.

I think the more we talk about our experiences the more we can feel connected. Youre right that were conditioned to see a heirarchy and that quite often the thing we are imagining being left out of just simply doesnt exist in that way. Thats a long way of saying im always happy to meet new people

Star @babystar.bsky.social · 13d

Gonna be honest im not sure those circles exist as such in the way you think. I would imagine with your friends and followers theres already a bunch of artists in that mix that youve already in some way built a circle. Im a bit rubbish at feeling included too but im learning thats a me thing

Star @babystar.bsky.social · 13d

This hit me hard. So busy drawing comics/coms that i rarely get to be small myself. Or if i go to events people recognise who i am and want to talk about my stuff but then that puts me in grownup mode rather than little mode so suddenly i cant be small there either. Tricky.

Star @babystar.bsky.social · 19d

Theres something about those sleepsack type outfits that really hit a sweet spot for me. just super snuggly and safe

Star @babystar.bsky.social · 19d

Book 3 of Shine has gone off to the lovely publisher folk. Pretty exciting. If you haven't got book 1 or 2 you can get them over here www.bewere.net/order.php?s=...

Star @babystar.bsky.social · 21d

I think this is fair to say. i'm very much a jack of all trades so I don't think i'll ever be super amazing artist, I know enough to get by, however I am sorta good at storytelling and those two together i think i can inject enough emotion into the art to get my intentions across. Thank you.
