Half traffic cone, half polar bear
Gamer, artist, technically a streamer. Mostly here to lurk and absorb news/memes. May comment from time to time. You can find me on Twitch @BoneheadBruin doing art or streaming alongside my husband and friends.
I know we already lost both of y’all to the psychosis but for what it’s worth I hope some day you realize making those pictures by hand is both a personalized and transformative expression of yourself and your skills as a human being, even when shitposting – while the AI route is just gambling at the slop-machine illegally trained on all of human creation until it produces something vaguely similar to thing you (or rather OP) admit to not even caring about.
By your own admission you’re creating content with little to no effort using AI? I think there’s a word for that.
See? You managed to take “My plagiarism machine produces only the most ethical slop because it runs on a Macbook” and blow it out to 8 paragraphs presumably without using AI to write it for you. The creative energy was within you all along.

Disagree. It’s just overused and poorly handled. If the story addresses the reasons why the child is neglected such as the father desperately trying to save his son or the future then it can make a good tragedy. Or, if the father was lost in his own work and probably shouldn’t have had his child but that work consumed him then it can be fine as long as it’s not framed as a good thing or that the child must forgive him for seemingly no reason.
The problem is media that screws this trope up and still expects you to forgive the father in the end. Oftentimes writers fail to address why the child couldn’t just join as bonding, or the father is not doing something that important, or the father is just straight up a terrible person and then the writers expect you to turn around and forgive him.
Otherwise it’s a great way to give the child character a prolific character to chase that they themselves don’t know, or create a character torn between two worlds for better and for worse, or create a deadbeat dad character that may or may not be redeemable.
The pineapple pizza discussion always gets me with this. I worked for a pizza company in Portland, Oregon and one of the best foods I’ve ever eaten was a pizza with an oil base, mozzarella, gorgonzola, apple, walnut, and bacon. My partner’s favorite was one they do with peach, brown sugar, and bacon. Off the top of my head theres: Cranberry chicken salad, teriyaki anything, honey ham/turkey/chicken nuggies… BARBECUE. KETCHUP ON BURGERS/HOTDOGS. Meat and sweet together are not this weird foreign concept people pretend it to be.
Yep, was gonna play Marathon until they just never bothered with Linux. Made a dual boot to try the free weekend and it was actually kind of interesting but not enough so that I want to restart my whole PC to play every time.
Apparently the anti-cheat they’re using has even developed a Linux version in the time since Destiny 2 came out but they still opted to be Windows only.
AI might be on to something with the tactical forearm pens
