Please believe me when I say I have never knowingly shared AI artwork in my life, but this one is so godawful that it defies any sort of categorisation.
THIS was posted by the current President....
Presumably it was supposed to project an image of utter masculinity.... which would surely test even the most soulless of generative AI programs, but this... THIS?
This may simultaneously be amongst the most horrifying AND most gay things I've seen in my long life.
The closest thing I can think of is those old Sino/Soviet posters all about men striving together which just looks like they're a slightly adorable gay couple, sometimes bringing up their kids together.
The central image strives for manliness, though I can only hear Jabba the Hutt's theme playing in my head as I look at it.
But the near naked, ALL MALE, totally toned (and possibly cloned) cheerleaders gleefully flinging their pompoms with gay [sic] abandon makes JC Leyendecker's work look butch.
To add another layer to the nightmare of this "art", it looks like the cheerleaders all resemble young Ronald Regan. yikes
Well, not unseeing THAT now....
Thanks, I hate it....
THE GUY BEHIND THE BASKETBALL HAS AMPUTATED HANDS
My cards! Color tinted, in-game, and also the base version without the tint.
The theme for each is: Hearts = medics, Clubs = Ops/intelligence, Diamonds = Justice/law, Spades = science. The suits are mostly arbitrary, I assigned the sets to suits after I picked the characters for each set.
this should be a .png file (it should be a .png? ? I'm not sure how tumblr uploads images) if anyone wants to load these guys into their balatro game or something. Here is the guide I used to get them into the game.
Fandom and Engagement
I had a really profound experience today.
I was just casually listening to a podcast on ancient anthropology because it autoplayed while I was doing housework, and it got into the nitty-gritty of how humans spent their time for most of the hundreds of thousands of years we've existed.
During the day, we would spend 15–20 hours a week on essential processes needed to sustain life. We would chat to each other about practical things: food, water, logistics, etc. Even during leisure time.
But at night, around the fire, the conversation shifted. This fireside conversation is now considered to be the cradle of human culture and the strongest creator of human bonds.
And it was mostly storytelling.
So like. I’ve never really understood my compulsion to tell stories or, for me, how essential it is that those stories then lead to conversation and connection. I always considered it a bit of an embarrassing insecurity, really, craving interaction from something I wrote.
And just hearing that one thing, on this one podcast, made me realise how bullshit that is. Stories are, since the beginning of our species, designed to form and strengthen connection. It’s human nature for me to want connection from them. We have 150,000 years of evolution to thank for that.
There’s a reason your local fanfic writer wants you to comment on their fic: because that’s part of the reason they’re writing it—for connection with their readers. Because human nature dictates storytelling is for connection.
It's okay to want it. It's what we are. It's the purpose behind 150,000 years of sharing stories.

I’m just going to add the Margay here:
“But Tumblr user severalowls, that’s just an Ocelot!”
No, you fool! You Buffoon! The Margay has mastered something generations of cats have only dreamed of! Getting down out of trees:
The Margay has reversible ankles, and uses them to do some pretty sweet tricks (And also hunt down monkeys, birds and other tree-dwelling critters in their otherwise safe treetop homes.)
Pictured: Margay who is not stuck.
And that’s why I don’t write comics professionally.
I finally had the time to catch up with the comics and this was the first thing that popped up in my head after reading. I think Rung needed some mental help with this one.
Best read in Egoraptor’s Halo Reach voice.
I’ll go to bed now, I’m sorry.
Hey man, you seem pretty upset
Soundwave and rain, such a menacing combination.
Inspired by my recent love of the Raven Thrower (it looks like a corvid that you chuck at things!)
Also obligatory reminder that it’s the final week on my Bluminarmour fundraiser. If you want to see me test dumb stuff in proper historical armour please consider pitching in and/or sharing!
Blumineck is trying to fun a video series doing fun and serious historical and fantasy testing in fitted plate armour.
Abort ABORT!!!!!
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA
If anyone wants me to say my opinion on a character with this bingo
the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.
imagining a universe where porn is a marketable genre so you have to deal with raycon ads while trying to jerk your shit
You’re an easy slut, aren’t you kitten? Almost as easy as dinner with Hellofresh
rip king, truly nobody was doing it for weird sci-fi and fantasy obsessed nerds like you 💔

I saw this video about a doctor who performed an MRI on a 5 year old and discovered she essentially had “brain damage” from excessive iPad use, as the white matter in her brain couldn’t form properly due to an understimulated environment.
Hmm it’s almost like there’s supposed to be adult figures responsible for monitoring her screen time and making sure she develops properly… certainly this isn’t the result of neglect at the hands of her parents…
“This 5 year old is brain damaged by excessive iPad use”
Translation: This 5 year old is developmentally impaired by neglectful parents who used an iPad as a stand-in for social and environmental stimulation / interaction for hours at a time during critical early stages of child development. The iPad is the cop-out.
“Children don’t have the strength to hold pencils anymore because they only use screens.”
Translation: Parents aren’t making the conscious effort to help their children develop necessary skills and letting iPads raise them.
When are people going to realize the iPads and whatnot are the instruments through which the neglect is happening through and not the cause? How the fuck do you let your child have such a severe lack of physical strength in their hands that they can’t hold a pencil properly?
People will see a study suggesting children with higher screen times have poorer or negative developmental outcomes and immediately say it’s the screens causing this, and not the more likely fact that higher screen time = less engagement time with their environment, physical exercise, parents, family, and their peers, all of which are NECESSARY for a healthy upbringing as a social species.
It’s like saying a dog who was kept in a cage all its life and left with atrophied muscles was damaged by the cage, and not by the fact its owners were too lazy to play or walk their dog in order for its muscles to build properly. The cage is the instrument of neglect and the owners are the perpetrators, in the same way parents are the perpetrators and weaponizing screen time as an excuse and painting themselves as helpless bystanders.
in conversation about white people who go to Japan and expect their knowledge of anime to culturally carry them, I was once posed with “it’s like if there was a Japanese guy who was obsessed with spongebob and came over here and thought he could get by just communicating in spongebob quotes.” This is a false equivalence because if such a man existed we would crown him king. We’d love him. Americans would fucking love that. sometimes I get sad that this isn’t a real guy I can invite to a party.
Ok the last one got me laughing actually
