yes digital art and traditional art are different! they both have pros and cons!! One is not better than the other!!! I still use my brain and my hands for both!!! raaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!

offically started getting weird comments on my anti ai art over on instagram. It's actually wild that some people still think making digital art is as simple as just clicking a bunch of buttons

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

bsky ceo's crashout shows they can not handle simple criticism, so keep doing it. bsky wants the marginalized people that built this site to shut up or leave, don't give them an easy way out

BlueSky does not currently have advertising or any real monetization. Doing a boycott/blackout will have absolutely no impact on them due to this, other than users who would be impacted by the censoring doing the work for them.

The real way to impact would be to post more. Trend. Make them moderate
