ancient greek word of the day: κακοθερής (kakotherēs), unfitted to endure summer heat

There is no ‘rest of the Mona Lisa’ - it doesn’t exist.

Tech bros fundamentally don’t understand art, and it’s why all AI art looks ugly as sin.

[pocket-deer-belly]

The mona lisa was actually a landscape painting but this random woman decided to just like sit there and block the view and da Vinci just rolled with it

[ofgeography]

i feel like the fundamental issue that i have with AI art is that it misunderstands why art is interesting. it's not just about a production of images. like yeah of course it can produce images. neat! fun trick! but what makes art interesting is that a person made it. like fundamentally that's what makes it interesting. an ai did some math and was like "this line has to continue so it's going to continue." like, ok? whatever? i wanna know about her eyebrows and the decision to leave them on or take them off. a person decided that. da vinci developed a whole set of skills and talents and then used them and made decisions about why, some technical, some based on vibes, some probably to do with some random thoughts he was having at the time, some probably, yes, based on math and continuity of lines. what's interesting IS THAT a person made it!!!! not just the thing itself!! if pretty landscapes themselves were the interesting thing we'd all just go stand and stare at mountains!!!

idk like this guy being like oOoOo My Robot Painted A Mountain like ok that's great for your robot i simply do not care

"suggest this less" "show this less" "recommend this less" i hate how across the internet our ability to curate our own experience, hell even our ability to give a definitive fucking NO to shit, is being stolen from us. its infuriating. "okay, we wont show you this as often... but we will still show it to you" MOTHER FUCKER I SAID NO.

Enemies-to-lovers, but instead of featuring a villain redemption arc, the heroic one is getting progressively more corrupt, unhinged and fucked up, and the one who was originally the clear-cut villain out of the two is just like "well mark me down as scared and horny"

That Tess infected kiss was a METAPHOR

[hotnmad]

explain yourself

[smorchsmorch]

actually craig and neil explain it in tlou podcast!

craig mazin: "we wanted a chance to show a different result of being infected, which was not one of mere violence or horror, but rather a sick kind of community...we had an opportunity to show how connected they were. they can sense that [tess is] one of them."

neil druckmann: "there's already so much horror of what's happening, right?...so then, instead of shooting it in a creepy way, let's shoot it in the most beautiful way...as if it was an intimate kiss of two lovers. and it made it way creepier by doing it that way."

craig mazin: "but i love the way we did that because it's underscoring again the theme of love and the way love functions. because the fungus loves too. it makes more of itself...but it is tender when this man comes to her, it's not violent because she's not fighting...she's just standing there and he very gently shares of himself...and it is--it's very jungian. it's very upsetting. anything penetrative is disgusting and scary when you're dealing with monsters...there's something so creepy and gross and primal about it. and yet also...beautiful."

don't you think that the fact that peggy lived well into her 90's and died a natural death when zola said that anyone who got in hydra's way were killed is a little bit sus

ungrounding techniques. what do you not see. what don't you hear. close your eyes and imagine something really scary in front of you. spin around until you are dizzy then scroll on your phone for 3 hours straight.
