The "Frieren angle" thing, apart from just being delightful, also completely demolishes the pathetic "AI is democratising art" argument. Someone struggling with a difficult drawing received advice from hundreds of strangers who just wanted to help them improve their art.

Watterson n'a pas fait beaucoup de one-panels, mais ils ont toujours aussi bons que le reste de ses strips.
Calvin et Hobbes (un petit garçon et son tigre en peluche) regardent tristement une souche d'arbre entourée de détritus. Calvin dit: "Parfois je me dis que la meilleure preuve qu'il existe une vie intelligente ailleurs dans l'Univers, c'est que personne n'a tenté de nous contacter."

Morning thoughts about "AI".

Where do we go from here?
Thoughts about “AI” Yes it’s: The slop The theft The brainrot The loss of work The crumbling of creator rights The destroying of the environment and infrastructure But it's also the destroying of trust in anything that you’re not seeing with your own eyes right in front of you. Wonder now turned to the narrowing of eyes in immediate scepticism seeing something magical. Questioning the realness of everything from a stilted written apology to profound works by students in school. It feels like a slow poison to creativity and humanity at large.

A little ode to last month! I associate October with many round things: pumpkins, acorns, apples, but also my cats, who become extremely round and fluffy as their fur thickens. Here’s my little ode to the roundest month of the year 🟠

People are better than the World presented in the media and online. Everything is sensationalised for money, politics, and power. Don't lose hope in one another.

Whenever you see hateful posts on social media, please remember that about 50% of internet activity is now AI/bots, so it's likely that it isn't even a real person. Don't fall for the crap that's trying to divide us, just ignore (block) and move on.

I made it to #drawtober finally.
An ink drawing of a toad wearing a little star patched vest and a lily pad hat is holding a tiny book and telescope looking like theyre walking off somewhere to do business while the book pours stars behind it.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Cult of the Trash 🔥
A bunch of animals, the kind usually associated with being pests, dance around a garbage can on fire gleefully. The background behind them is broken down brick walls with some trash around them and even further an industrial area surrounded by nature and a deep yellow sky. There are patches of dandelions.

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

Je voulais attendre demain pour le poster mais je me dis : allez hop !

Depuis plusieurs mois j'entends régulièrement le genre de phrase sur la première slide. Des fois toute la phrase, des fois des bouts, ça dépend.

Ca me fatigue.

Alors j'ai fait une liste.
Image avec un fond bleu-vert. En haut à gauche, le titre stylisé : « Imaginaires QUEER », et en haut à droite, un drapeau progress pride avec un cercle jaune intersexe. Au centre, une bulle de dialogue contenant le texte : « On ne peut pas sacrifier notre imaginaire issu d’une autrice fasciste pour des artistes queer qui de toute façon n’ont pas d’importance dans le fandom ! ». En dessous de la bulle, la mention en biais : « Plus ou moins ce que j’entends ». En bas de l’image, en lettres blanches : « Alors voici celleux qui font l’imaginaire en France aujourd’hui (sans ordre ni classement) (et j’en oublie PLEIN) ».
