You mean the guy who denied Cambodian genocide even in the face of testimonies from survivors isn't just factually wrong on stuff he spews, but is also a vile person? Shocker.

Could have been way worse - he is on the files, after all.

Good work!
That D&D trio feels like such a fever dream. Out of the blue Dex had three pals for tabletop RPGs, only for the blonde guy to stop existing by the time boy genius tried to attend a Star Trek convention with the remaining two in tow, for whom it would prove to be their last appearance.

Fitting that this took place on deviantART, given how the owners of that site embraced AI and allowed it to run amok.
I've seen a couple of skilled artists who opted to train AI on their own work in order to churn out stuff faster - except all of it ended looking very generic and samey.
