I had a tattoo client ask if I ever used AI to design tattoos for me. Man I spent the better part of a decade doing shitty bit work as a graphic designer and now that I have the space to do whatever I want, I'm gonna let the computer generate random garbage for me? What next should I have a computer that eats my dinner and fucks my wife?

[zooophagous]

I feel like people get so hung up on the results of a thing that they don't appreciate that the process of making it is, actually, enjoyable.

It's like if you have a friend who likes to bake, asking if they'd like to just buy cupcakes from the store instead of making them. The end result of the cupcake is secondary to the joy you get from having made cupcakes.

Art isn't a slog or a chore or something I want to avoid. Art is fun. It's rewarding. It feels good to do it. You may as well be asking me if I want the AI to watch television for me, it doesn't make any sense, I'm not participating and would gain nothing from it.

[yournewfriendshouse]

yeah the AI debate really has revealed the staggering amount of people who fundamentally misunderstand what art making is about

[headspace-hotel]

A lot of 'weird' modern art is playing with the idea that art is about the Process of Making, not the end product. Maybe we should look more closely at those artworks...

Hey so

the last time I reblogged this post right before I got a great job, in a permanent work-from-home position, with benefits, retirement, and a salary literally 3x what I was making before, doing something I really like. 

So you know. 

This might be the real one, y’all.

ok enough is enough. whichever one of you virgins invented instagram starbucks recipes, die 1000 deaths. I had a customer come in today holding out their phone (full brightness) and looking all shy and Im immediately like 🙄 fine ok, what does the instagram user want me to make for them this time. well this time it's a cringe harry potter themed frappucino. excuse me??? "can you make this for me?" I said excuse me??? -- I mean *customer service voice* "yeah it looks like I have all the ingredients, haha sure!"

ok cringe instagram harry potter frappucino drinker. ok. die. "Ive never had this drink before" yeah I can tell due to the fact that it didnt exist until someone posted a #aesthetic photo of it to instagram 14 hours ago ok. ok,

but whatever, Im paid to put up with this shit. so I add the ingredients all up on my computer and congrats! ur harry potter cringe social media drink has $10 worth of syrup in it. are you happy??? is this what you wanted??? a $10 frappucino??? $10. for a drink. you doubled the price of this drink for ur off-brand "harry potter and the legend of the overpriced starbucks drink" drink. you doubled the price!!! is this how u imagined spending ur day? is this what u wanted to do when u woke up this morning? $10 for a 24oz drink?

and u know, you KNOW the influencer making this recipe doesn't even work at a starbucks cause when it was all said and done the drink looked like shit. my blender was straining against the weight of your sins (and syrups) and Im sweating, Im an animal, Im losing my mind and my blender is getting watered down frappucino syrups everywhere -- u put so much shit liquid in this blender it doesnt even fit in the cup btw. it's making a huge mess. but is it instagramable? no, its fucking ugly. #trending #foryoupage #cringe $10 harold potter drink for adult children,

so are you happy? is ur social media influencer bestie happy? I made ur stupid $10 drink for u. does it taste good? no? well I hope instagram shuts down tomorrow. I hope you read a different book. I hope I never get sober. there is no sign of land. I hope you die. I hope we both die.

world heritage post

[satanfemme]

I made this post in August of 2021 while unwell, depressed, and misanthropic.

today is September 22nd 2024. I am still unwell, but I am also more mature. I am no longer misanthropic. I am a dog who loves people and is full of hope. and as such I no longer stand by the cruel tone of this post! every day I try to be nicer than the last, and every day the "me" who wrote this post is further and further in the past.

this post has 130,000 notes and gains more notes on a daily basis. but the person who wrote this post is gone! the person who wrote this post sleeps inside my heart - and is healing!

I am not better than the person who reblogs this in 2024 to vent frustration at the average starbucks customer. and I am not better than the average starbucks customer. and neither are you. it's our first time being alive. we're learning social conventions as we go. we all have off days, we all have missteps, we all have needs and wants that conflict and annoy each other and make each other "cringe".

well, on September 29th, 2024, I will turn off reblogs for this post and leave it, and its angry tone, in the past for good. say goodbye to your world heritage post, and learn to forgive the petty transgressions that come with communal living.

Thank you for for 3 years of this haunting post and goodbye. it's a beautiful treat to live an alive life, ok?

If you have achieved something, please remember to observe a mandatory period of basking in the warm glow of your achievement like a lizard on a stone, lest you teach your brain that effort is futile, actually, because it didn't get to enjoy its happy chemicals, so, naturally, nothing good ever comes of trying. (And no, avoiding punishment is not a reward!)

I recommend, like, 5% of basking time in relation to whatever time you invested into achieving the thing minimum. And if you can't make your own bask, friend-brought is fine (= tell your friends!).

18.01.22 Things are happening so quickly! I’ve got a bunch of stuff to get done for my first grad school application at the end of the month, plus sorting out other administrative stuff for graduating at the end of this term, and writing my undergrad thesis. All that said, I think I’m doing a relatively good job of keeping my cool. And I’m sooooo excited about my thesis that I don’t think it’s going to be as hard to write as I though. Not easy, but definitely not torture.
