[white-knuckling A Submachine Gun] I'm Never Puppy Stressed When I Do My Puppy Best

so bc i am a Gross Dude my friends i and sometimes rate our burps and my coworker (who is a teen girl) burped in front of me once and i instinctively rated it

so now every time she burps she looks to me hopefully for a rating and bc she has delicate little baby burps i now have to create an entirely new Burp Rating System unique to her bc i rate anything below a 5 and she looks at me like this

😳

this is how the cold war ended

I guess I’m not done having emotions about AI art yet

Ethical AI usage has plenty of room for the “wow!” and “this is so fun!” factor, among other personal uses. I just think that right now, the dataset acquisition is reprehensible, the enrichment of the company owners at the expense of artists is the absolute worst of capitalist amorality, and AI art is not capable of providing a net positive to culture until these issues are resolved.

There is not really any ethical use of AI to generate art if you aren’t using your own datasets and running it on your computer.

With big companies like Midjourney, you will be using datasets acquired without consent. You will also be providing more data and money to help the business do better theft.

I totally get why it’s fun. It feels like visualizing dreams. Referencing things that are familiar in this surreal ways. I love that some folks seem to be having this cool community experience with it, sharing things and learning. It must feel enriching.

I wish that the system that your joy enriches were not *so terrible*. They do not deserve you.

My ire is always aimed at the system, the moneybags, not the people who are navigating the same moral complexities I am and often reaching different but equally valid conclusions.

That said, I am asking friends of mine who do it for fun to consider if this is the fun you have to do? There are *so many* fun artistic pursuits. Right now this one is on the forefront of everyone’s minds because it’s novel, but…we don’t have to do it.

We don’t have to help the people hurting artists because we are having fun with it.

today.... while playing the new tf2 map named 'applejack'...... me and my friend were able 2 convince somebody to start researching 'rarijack'..... video games is so much fun!!!

What if I go to the past of ancient egypt, wearing a cat fursuit and tell them that I'm their god.

it’s that time of year again

My friend really likes your music and we listen to it when we kiss and have cuddly gay sex. I'd be curious to know what music you listen to when sexhaving, if any.

this is genuinely a weird fucking thing to say to anyone, let alone a stranger. fix how you interact with people online and in real life, because shit like this contributes to making spaces unsafe.

i'm ace btw. xoxo

that's a weird looking dog you got there, claude 🐀⛓️
