Pinterest finally realizing no one wants their shitty AI posts 🙄😮‍💨

Settings --> Home Feed Tuner --> swipe over to GenAI Interests and turn all off

Creative drive is low these days. A lot of my time and energy is put into school and work.

Here are some sketches I did today: a very low-energy day.

General disappointment in myself & work/boss problems 😴
