Hey hey, #PortfolioDay!

I'm Ashley, a NY-based illustrator who works on book covers, tarot cards, and TTRPGs!

I'm on a mission to do more traditional work, and here is one I made last summer. I'm dying to do more, so keep an eye out!!!

When people learn with ChatGPT instead of following their own searches, they end up knowing less, caring less, and producing worse advice, even when the facts are the same.

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

If you have to deal with conservative family this Thanksgiving, the only two things you should be saying to them is. "You have internet addiction, that's internet addiction garbage." and "Be a fucking man/adult and live and let live." That's it, nothing more. They'll leave humiliated.

That's the thing about criticism. It teaches you about yourself. What you value, how you feel about certain things, what in a piece of art matters to *you,* specifically.

And the more you do it, the better you understand yourself. It teaches you who you are and what you believe.

One of the best things you can learn to say is "I don't know" or "I haven't tried it." Remain curious and open and make sure your opinions are *yours.*

That's really hard to do in a world designed to tell you how to feel about everything, but goddamn is it crucial to like... being a person.
