Maybe you think it’s okay to get in here and insult and berate folks who use AI to make “art,” and I’m here to tell you that you’re right. Good job, everyone. Keep it up. Much love.

What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

Artists are human beings who need to do pesky human stuff like eat food/stay warm/pay bills & so on.

& while we do gotta put our work out there to be seen…

Feeding the slop machine helps out rich techbros more than us.

A few people still seem to think human artists owe them nice arts for free...

I don't share as much art as I used to, & I don't make as much art as I used to cos:

1. Slop machines made it even more difficult to get paid for making art, so I do more of other things that do pay. Cos I have bills.

2. Stuff artists do share ending up in the slop machines is pretty demotivating…

The neighbor put a piñata up in their yard for cinco de mayo and it’s still there. All the colors have been washed off and every day it’s a little more haggard looking. Every day I get up and sing “Do you like moldy piñatas, and gettin’ caught in the rain” to it.

@itgrrl.bsky.social we found the eels and fed them meat from a spoon. My life’s work is now complete.

I was homesick while I was gone, and kept looking at old photos of familiar places like this intersection near my studio. I love how much of the past Portland hung on to. I can walk outside my workplace at lunch and almost see back through time in little ways.

I just donated to Planned Parenthood in honor of Kristi Noem’s dogs and I think everyone else should do that too.

to be honest I've always found it kinda fun to end up being a little bit crappy at whatever I try to do... Takes a lot of pressure off, and I feel like everyone can tell when you're doing something just for the love of the game

When my mom had vascular dementia, she also hallucinated things that weren’t happening. She never tried to have the military invade Portland though.

When exactly did every style writer/cooking editor in America decide to use the word “zhuzh” nearly constantly in every video, usually with a little self-conscious smile while saying it? - (these are the kinds of thoughts you have when facing another day in a war zone like PDX.)#PDX
