Defying Entropy

33. Chilling in Oregon and mixing shellac. I used to do political science but now I'm just a professional bummer.

Incredibly violent take of mine but I actually don’t think you need to relate to a story in any way to enjoy it. You can enjoy a story even if you can’t point at a character and insert some aspect of your personality or identity into them. In fact I would argue the need for a character like that to be present in every single story you experience is a sign of stunted growth.

Ask that someone sent a blog I follow that inspired this. You are twisting yourself into some incredibly bizarre pretzels so you can go “aha, a character I Relate To” and it’s just like. Well actually there just may not be parts of this film you can see yourself in. And that’s okay. You can enjoy this movie for many of its merits that aren’t “I am in it”.

historical fiction gets made fun of a lot for the abundant, seemingly random cameos of famous figures but when you read historical non-fiction, you realize that everyone in the past did, in fact, know each other because there were only 12 people in the entire world

Ah, another day of being beholden to the nonsensical whims of bloodless, hollow men who believe in nothing

[online-silkmoth]

I think when im done with tumblr I'll just post an image of a dingy, bloodstained stairwell, caption it something like "I don't remember having a basement" and then just never post again

GONCHAROV (1973) dir. Martin Scorsese

“It funny because for many years people thought Goncharov was the main antagonist of the film, after all, he’s the one everyone’s out to get, right? But it seems people are starting to understand that in actual fact, it is time that is the main adversary in this story. There’s never enough of it and that torments a lot of characters, especially Goncharov, because he’s fighting so desperately to find his place in a world that is so keen on keeping him ostracized.”

AI artists are now having 'prompt stealing' discourse lmaoo

[thestereotypebuster]

"Sharing that is like transferring all your art experience and capabilities to the rest of the world"

That's because it is!

Writing a prompt is the EXTENT of your "art" capabilities. You have nothing more to offer the world than the dubious skill of stringing some words together for a machine to reinterpret as a mishmash of other people's work.

"Stop stealing and start creating!" indeed.

[yourlocalnautilus]

the fact that generative A.I. has created a completely new fundamental doubt in reality (checking to see if an artwork we see is manmade or not) and doubt in the instinct of enjoying art is unforgivable. its sickeningly tragic, and i mean it. NOTHING is worth this price and i hope that everyone will one day realize this.
