All art is the result of the creator's unique perspective on the world and the surprising connections their brain makes between things, focused through the lens of their own personal tastes developed over a lifetime of practise.
GenAI has no perspective and can't develop taste.

the thing that drives me insane about genAI/chatgpt bullshit is that brother, the process IS the work IS the entire thing. no artist comes to art for the final result. the final result is inextricable from the fucking labor that came into making it

*vibrates violently holding a degree in interdisciplinary communication and collaboration*
You do not need genAI to communicate your ideas as a non-artist to an artist! A generated image doesn't actually share the key info that needs to passed on AND it discourages fruitful discussion

ethically abominable, morally indefensible, probably entangled inextricably with pharmaceutical companies, but you couldn't keep me out with dogs and machine guns

Hey Portland, if you find a bunch of Christmas decorations and letters dumped out somewhere by a frustrated, disappointed, possibly guilt-stricken thief, please contact @aadams.bsky.social
There are surely worse things in the world but for my own cathartic release:
SHAME!!! on those who stole all of our Christmas decorations, ornaments and cards lovingly collected over 35 years. For my children, by my children. Loving holiday cards written by hands no longer with us. Shame on you.

Free public libraries are right up there on the list of best things we have done as people.
We library folk do a good job talking about all the free services we offer, but I don’t see many of us talking about how libraries are one or the only places where you can use services without being advertised to.

my favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

Both hold so much hope.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS! If you buy either of my books in the month of December, I’ll send you a free bookplate! Just send me proof of purchase through my DMs.
LIGHTHOUSE is a winter book, a sapphic Orpheus.
TFBT is a magical queer circus.
Both hold hope.
