I FUCKING HATE YOU PEOPLE (Sizhen System, 2025, pixel, critical thinking worksheet, paper, the "environmental impact" of "AI image generation", earnest hatred, Google form, .png, time, .pdf)
I FUCKING HATE YOU PEOPLE is an interactive multimedia art experience by Sizhen System, an alias of NYT-acknowledged and Academy of American Poets-published poet Nora Hikari. It features a series of AI-generated images of fictional White female US American military soldiers, drawn in an "anime" style, in various levels of eroticism and pornography. The images contain various computer-generated hallucinations of what the image model conceptualizes as "American iconography." A critical element of the images are the ways that the machine corrupts these actual images -- flags, in particular, as well as the distortions which arise in anatomy, increasing over the course of the image series.
Following the series of images is a piece of creative nonfiction writing in the form of a six-page interactive "worksheet", styled as a classroom worksheet for a hypothetical course in "Johnny Jackass’s Introduction to Non-Terminal Thought" and titled "Sizhen System's Curricular Torsion 6: WHO'S AFRAID OF THE CRITICAL THINKING SECTION?" In addition, there is a public Google form which allows participants to submit their answers to the worksheet directly to the artist.
Artist statement: "I made I FUCKING HATE YOU PEOPLE because I fucking hate you people. Your reactionary sentimentalities cause you to refuse to reckon with anything that could possibly expand your consciousness unless you are literally bludgeoned over the head with it. This piece is Not Art. There is No Art contained within this piece. This device is a weapon designed to hurt the reader/viewer. Any and all art which comes from this piece, or is produced by this piece, is purely incidental, and not the political responsibility of the artist, who did not make a piece of art."
The full body of the work can be found as a compressed file, with assets, at this link: https://system-wires.itch.io/i-fucking-hate-you-people
THIS NON-ART PIECE CONTAINS SEXUAL NUDITY AND IS NOT APPROPRIATE FOR PEOPLE WHOM THAT IS NOT APPROPRIATE FOR.
As an artist, which gives me the purview to elevate non-art (as the non-artist of this non-art piece self describes it), my analysis is thus: this is a non-piece mockingly combining the myopic obsessions of this website's worst clientele - the white, chauvinistic, USAmerican fandomite liberals who have never done an ounce of critical thinking in their life - into a mean spirited parody. It's jingling keys at them and calling them babies. "Is this what you dumb fucks like? You clearly don't have the cognition for serious, genuine engagement with the ideas and principles that have gone into the conversation of art for centuries, so here's a white bitch in a navy uniform getting fucked while holding a burger. Did I dumb it down enough for you to understand it?"
If you exist outside that purview, you can take the non-piece as an observation of how the coddled ignorance of the privileged imperial core shapes the face of global art by its incessant demands to simultaneously never be challenged and to be taken seriously as not just a, but the, voice of what art is and gets to be.
I would be remiss to overlook the fact that the non-artist has used image generation for this task. Image generation has been chided by very many people, for very many reasons. Obviously among those are some good reasons, which the non-artist is not addressing. What the non-artist is addressing is specifically the erroneous, fascist assumption that lies underneath the assertion that AI "isn't real art" because "[AI has no soul][it's stealing from real (ensouled) artists][you just typed in a prompt instead of spending hours drawing it by hand]".
These are obviously, fundamentally reactionary arguments against AI art, deriding it on grounds that art is a designation that has specific and definitive characteristics of being created by humans (it is generally agreed by christian dogma, the only one these people are likely to be acquainted with, that only humans have souls), taking effort, or simply looking a certain way. AI image generation has done considerable damage to that conception by throwing into jeopardy the value of the 'skill' required to pump out pinups of glossy eyed, doll faced anime girls getting fucked via being able to do so at a pace no artist can possibly match.
Though it does this with a marked reduction in things like consistency or anatomical knowledge or 'quality' (whatever you define that as), AI image generation is nonetheless popular specifically because a lot of people consume such pieces thoughtlessly, instantly, and voraciously; taking it in as nothing more than a pretty picture to beat off to, then discarding it - if it even garners the time out of their day for that before being lost in a sea of other functionally identical pieces made by other self proclaimed artists.
The non-artist is specifically calling into question whether such art was ever truly art under such a definition, if indeed anything ever made for mass market appeal and consumption can be considered art, blurring the lines and tearing down the pretenses between art making and content creation. She is doing this for the explicit purpose of brute forcing philosophically constipated morons into realizing that, indeed, all dogshit is art, whether penned by humans over weeks or generated via machine in seconds, because the process of art is not one of effort or divine imbuement of Meaning into a canvas, but of curation and communication.
By choosing to present this gallery of sloppily generated images to us, she has made non-art into art. By interacting with it, by critiquing it, by validating its existence and profundity, we have immortalized our reactions to this piece as part of the piece; as art.
This is why nobody takes art critics seriously, unless you're invested in some money laundering scheme. Complete and utter bullshit "hurr durr I AI generated images and u interacted with it so now it's art" LMAO
This is an example of a terminal thought -- that which the eponymous Johnny Jackass went out of their effortful way to provide you with a lesson plan on avoiding. You have allowed your reactionary sentimentalities about aesthetic, which are synchronous with fascist condemnations of degeneracy, to stop you from engaging thoughtfully with the work. You have done this because, presumably, this work is designed specifically to critique people like you, and you have balked at this and recoiled in derision and emotional and political reaction. This is the exact kind of engagement this piece is designed to address and critique. You can disagree with the work or the effectiveness of the work, and you are entitled to being wrong about art, and having opinions about work I or anyone else creates which are divergent or unaligned with whatever that creator believes about the work. But you terminate your critical thinking at the command of your chauvinism at your own peril, both in terms of your capacity for effective political analysis and, therefore, agency, as well as in the terms of your capacity for thoughtful curiosity about the complexity of the world around you. It will not only fail to enrich your life and the lives of the people you treasure, but indeed, it will serve to the immediate and trivial detriment to all of you.
Anyone who rejects this piece is unquestionably a reactionary whose idea of art is 150 years out of date because it is a textbook example of Dadaism. Self-declared anti-art using machine aesthetics to challenge conventional notions of what art is and openly decry the bourgeois nature of those conventions, this is Dada, a century on from its inception.

literally though if you feel like your life is slipping through your fingers and every day goes too fast… try doing hard things, not just taking the easy route, like reading and making art and exercising and cooking a meal from scratch and journaling, doing these things without distraction, without being absorbed on a screen… the time will stretch and you’ll be reminded that life is long and beautiful if you make it so.
Reblogging this with these tags because oh my goodness
To the person I reblogged this from THANK YOU i am now going to stick this on my pinboard where I’m gonna see it every single day
“Life is long and beautiful if you make it so”
just had an extremely funny memory of being 9 years old and wondering if i was gay and then deciding i couldn't be because gay people were so rare that it was statistically improbable for me to be one
a while later i came to terms with it and instead of having a breakdown i just became insufferably smug about my perceived uniqueness. walking around like wow.... i must be the only gay person in this entire school, nay, this entire town
was trying to isolate the point at which i actually, verbally came out to my mother (not that i needed to, since she apparently had me pinned as a dyke from the age of 3), and i'm pretty certain it was at a Glee Live concert when i was 12, because i have a dim recollection of turning to her and asking "what would you say if i told you i was a lesbian?" and her replying "i'd tell you to shut up because the concert is about to start"
#my dad on the other hand i literally forgot to come out to#i came home in tears after getting broken up with and he said 'what's the matter?' and i was like (snottily) My Girlfriend Dumped Me#there was a pause while he processed a lot of things very fast#and the part of my mind that wasn’t howling in adolescent grief was like ah shit. we didn't tell him did we#and to give him grace he didn't make a big thing out of it and was just like (very awkwardly) 'ah well.. plenty of fish in the sea'
please these tags are so funny

traditionally, when the plastic serving tray isnt available, many Americans will flatten and smooth out the brown paper McDonald's bag where they will place the french fries in a pile and dedicate a separate area of the bag to a serving or two of ketchup. Often times this method of serving McDonald's fries is communal, especially when enjoyed by family groups or bonded American pairs (see: dating). However, if the burger is served in a cardboard clamshell, many Americans can be seen using the top of the clamshell as a dedicated ketchup receptacle for nuggets and fries. There does exist a small, often alienated population, who will drizzle the ketchup directly on top of the french fries. But this is often considered taboo and poor form due to convivence and the uneven distribution of ketchup.
I drew a bunch of silly stuff with my werewolf woman and decided to gather it one post. Sometimes you just have to decompress through being goofy
You can read about her here.

These comics are just some silliness I drew for fun. It's not really canon, she lives in a separate setting and isn't able to talk as a werewolf. Her original story is also pretty rough and tragic.
