If you're using gen AI because "you want to make art but don't know how/can't learn/it's easier/whatever"

You don't want to make art.

You want someone to make art for you, but you don't want to pay or exchange anything of equal value for it, and also you want it right now, in whatever style you fancy that moment, and in whatever quantity you want. You're greedy and entitled and it is just that simple. You don't want to make anything.

at a bar in lower manhattan and they’re playing catholic choral music. on the wall there’s a giant mural of gregorian monks on a raft

the only other people in here are talking quietly about japanese verb conjugation. there are many statues of gargoyles and gnomes

reading reviews while quietly sipping my drink. i feel like i’m in an alternate dimension. it’s called Burp Castle btw

probably goes without saying this is now my favorite bar in the world

new yorkers are so fucking spoiled it is unbelievable

@jh-newman-opn is this an alternative to the bakery?

I think watching some random actor's entire filmography just because you fancy them is actually so important. It teaches you that even the most successful artists start somewhere. That they experience ups and downs and career ruts and often have to do very weird projects at some point just because their rent is due. And maybe you discover that you don't even like that guy all that much lol

Wisptober Day 21 : Honey “Roaming through a forest of dead trees is a living suit of armour.  Even from a distance, you can see the gleam of golden honey dripping between the cracks and hear the buzzing of a hundred thousand bees.” I like to think he stand at the edge of the woods looking over the field while his bees polinate.:3 (he spooks the farmers but they tolarate him)

While fandom racism is an issue that all people of color go through, it is a unique experience being black and experiencing racism/anti-blackness. I feel we don’t discuss how black fans often get the brunt of racism not just from white folks, but from people of color in general. 

Not to demean or downplay with other people of color experience in terms of racism in the fandom, but imo, the ultimate form of racism and the most glaring form of racism is and will always be anti-blackness, often spurred from both white and non-black fans.

“omg this happens?” Yes.

“This doesn’t happen in my fandom-” I assure you, yes it does.

“I’ve never seen this before-” you are not looking or do not know what to look for, because you have no or do not consider your Black peers. All things to consider reflecting upon and changing 👍🏾
