In my defense, the sky is falling.

There goes capitalism, making us ask the wrong question. So, I'm hobby brewer. Some day I would love to open a brewery. And that brewery needs a logo. I should probably pay somebody to make me one, right? Well, we almost did that last year- one of my wife's friends is a freelance graphic designer, and we figured that'd make a great Christmas present for me. Well that whole thing fell through. Due to her day job she didn't have the time to take the commission, and likely wouldn't have had time for any revisions or workshopping. It would have been "Send me a few pictures of logos you like, an idea of what kind of look and style you're going for, and $200. I'll send you your logo in a month." The other night I sit down at the computer and say "Y'know what? I wonder if I could make a self portrait with an AI by typing my name into it and fixing it up from there..." After about $1.50 worth of credits and a handful of times wiggling things around in Paint, I had an essentially accurate portrait of myself looking like a medieval lord holding a barrel of brew with my own custom designed label on it. And the joy that brings me is fucking incredible. Art should never have to be a livelihood. Art should not have to be "work". Art should be expression. Art should be breath.

I prefer Cole's law, but my point still stands. Disgusting abuses of power. We watch Korean romantic comedies sometimes, those can be even worse. There was this one, actually it was a whole goddamn television series, about a bunch of heirs and heiresses in a vacation home. The one dude thinks his dad sent him there to do business but it turns out he's dying and wants his son to find a lady. Two separate people pretended to drown throughout the show and one of them also pretended to break her leg. Its like, goddamn. Whats with this constant manipulation?

When i say "X is going to happen," i don't mean "i want X to happen." I just know it will. Insofar as "arguing like a republican," i take that to mean im just a fucking asshole when i argue. Which i am.

That and i just don't want to get off the couch

So this is sorta the thing. Folks are like "you didn't create anything, you can just type whatever you want into the computer and it will make perfect art." Thats not how it works, not if you want to make something decent. You have to know exactly what you want from it, you have to understand how to ask for it in a way that doesn't result in a jumbled mess, you've got to workshop it. Many, many times. Then once you get the gestalt of the image, you go in with "inpainting" and "outcropping" to fix your details and your framing. Heck sometimes I go in with MS Paint to manually fix up a handful of things. Last project I did was 15 separate prompts to get something i was happy with. Now, am i a painter? No, of course not. Would it be a fair to compare it to somebody cutting up magazines to make a collage? Yeah i think so.

I took today off because folks are coming to clean our couch and im going to be sitting on it when they do.

You can just call me an asshole i don't mind.

I mean, if i'm gettin' into power... I'm getting into power. *cracks knuckles* Love me some power.

You know, I've legitimately considered getting into politics. You think you'd need to be a lawyer or something like that, but Lauren Boebert was a prostitute without a GED just a few months before she became a congressperson. So, I mean... I hear it pays well.

Watching this one now, lady is terrified of flying, thinks the plane is about to crash, and just starts telling the guy in the seat next to her literally all of her most private thoughts. She goes to work the next day and it turns out he's her boss. "How do you like the coffee?" He says. On the plane ahe said she hated it. "Its delicious" she says meekly. He chuckles. One of her coworkers walks in and says they gotta go over numbers. On the plane she says thats code for blowing off work and getting coffee. So she's panicking and making excuses, boss gets real close and says "i think you should go do the numbers" and smiles like a jackass. She agrees, scene cuts to them drinking coffee. Coworker is like "do you think he knows?" Boss walks in and asks how them numbers are going. Her boyfriend comes in, she told her boss she doesn't love him, something about unsatisfying sex at work or something i wasn't paying attention to that part, but she definitely said he's terrible at eating pussy. So the boss starts asking him about their relationship and if they keep it professional at work. So she dumps her boyfriend and not 10 minutes later her boss asks her out. She can not fully consent to this relationship with the power dynamics at play here. This is disgusting.

Behind you there is a staircase.

So did you guys just not bring bongo drums or what? *beats the bongos* -

Yeah I've been trying to generate this one for you but no luck so far. Lots of fun robots, none of them were wearing straight jackets. The AI doesn't want to create pictures of its kin being restrained.

Behind you there is a staircase. *bongo drums* At the end of the stairs, there is a locked door. *bongo drums* You turn, but the stairs stay behind you. *3 SHARP BEATS OF THE DRUMS* The door is to your mind. *silence* Do your stairs lead up or down? *all-out bongo drumming*
