Kinda makes me think of the tales of Gilgamesh. Love the sepia tone. ❤️

'Neverending', 'exponential', 'getting better'...

It's very ironic how they and AI seem to have the same grasp on the reality of their impact.

Non-existent remorse and total apathy.

Well, at least you aren't alone now, but gods all mighty I hate my attention to detail.

Goodness, sorry to hear tha-...

O_O...

Loved seeing the model tonight Vexxy!

...Very cool.

Omg that's so cute.

Can it be fixed though? Sure. Nothing that's broken can't be fixed in some way. There's hope.

But gods DAMN.

If nothing else, thank you to those who do their best to get around it, to create and entertain. To you I give my gratitude and my endurance. The lil islands of sanity are worth the search.

Yet.

And if my pessimism seems harsh, I'm only offering the evidence laid bare in front of me. Countless creators pigeon holed into acting and showing specific things, wrapping it up in a layer of shit so media will let it through. Lurkers forced to participate or be seen as non-existent.

There's a very real percentage of absolute garbage to sift through if I'm to find any escape from my day to day drudgery, and I'm quickly learning that sleep and a book are all I have left if the constant conning won't tone it down. But at least bluesky isn't in the thick of that ...

And what can I do to stop this endless tide of stupid? Hand over money to the media source to turn it off, or use adblock at the cost of denying actual humans demanding nothing from me other than to watch.

That moment my autistic ass suddenly realizes the ramifications of the season... Spectrum?
Shit now I'm doing it.

The ability to recognize it after a mere instant was the only good thing the steady exposure to it has given me.
