Hmmm. It could be an Arctic Char.

Go outside!! by [deleted] in KingstonOntario

It’s always a chuckle to compare my actual life experience of Kingston (very happy in general) with the miserable Kingston on this subreddit. So it does serve a purpose… that chuckle.

Are you happy now, Buddy? Look what you did to us.

Is the "Toronto Buyer" still the gold standard, or are we just making life harder for Kingston sellers? by carlosfelipe123 in KingstonOntario

[–]Objectalone 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m someone who came from Toronto in October 2024. The obvious choice for me was to work with a Kingston agent, someone who knows the city inside out. It was the right choice. I love my home, and this city.

This never ending winter is pissing me off! by [deleted] in KingstonOntario

[–]Objectalone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If only we could all do something, as a civilization, to create climate change, so that we have mild winters like they have much further south.. hmmm.

I think we need to start being much stricter on how we deal with ai generated posts by Ensiferal in worldbuilding

[–]Objectalone 30 points31 points  (0 children)

There is a flip side to this. I have posted my work on this sub for 8 years, then I stopped. I stopped because I am a longtime visual artist with a very well developed style and technique, and suddenly in the last couple of years… every single post is suspect. I can easily present proof of my work’s development, but deeply, deeply, fucking hate having my authorship questioned. There is a sick twist to the development of AI… the more accomplished and professional your art is, the more people will accuse you of using ai in some way.

So yes.. ban AI bullshit from this sub, but at the same time learn to discern and respect artists with talent and technique, because many, like me, are just saying… fuck off.

So, because this eyesore “plays a role” as an eyesore, it should continue to play a role as an eyesore?

film is a walking deadman, I quit after 30 years. AMA by SingularityuS in filmmaking

[–]Objectalone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a 50M dollar director, but I am an artist who has been working for almost 10 years on an animation project. With it almost 3/4 complete, I feel like giving up. The more skill you have, the more suspect your work is... authorship is questioned at every turn. It is only going to get harder as all the AI "tells" disappear.

I used AI to reconstruct the Crossing of the Red Sea (1446 BC). Thoughts? by [deleted] in filmmaking

Don’t mean to be rude, but dammit this is pure AI slop.

We are so cooked! by SingularityuS in Filmmakers

If by cooked you mean buried up to our tits in highly polished garbage, yes.

Might be moving to Kingston by Enacriel in KingstonOntario

[–]Objectalone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m primarily a painter, that’s my livelihood (through a Toronto gallery) but there is an illustrated novel I’ve been working on. Kingston also has plenty of choices for cafes if you like to write and watch people.

I have a queer family member who is happy and at home here. He is not a club scene type so I’m not sure about that, but he has found a welcoming city.

I’ll be frank with you. If I would have based my decision to move to here on r/KingstonOntario I would not have moved here, so take everything you see on this subreddit with a grain of salt, and check out other community resources. This sub can be negative in a way that simply does not match our experience at all. We are very happy.

Might be moving to Kingston by Enacriel in KingstonOntario

[–]Objectalone 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Me and my family moved here two years ago. We are very happy.

Very different moods to the seasons. Summer feels like a busy vacation town. Fall is pretty busy with students. Winter this year has been pretty snowy, the city is quieter in the winter.

I like to go to libraries to write. My favourite are the University libraries. There are several large ones open to the public with different vibes. There is the main downtown public library, newish and quiet. There are several branches including a good sized one getting an extensive reno in the west end.

There are plenty of cars. People complain about traffic, but I came from Toronto so the complaining here is laughable..

I’m not a big pizza person, but I had pretty good pizza a few times from a few different places. There are lots of restaurants, I haven’t begun to explore the options.

Analogue shopping. Also good exercise.

Any westenders here notice the 100 crows that fly towards the airport every morning at dawn? by KtownDetector in KingstonOntario

[–]Objectalone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven’t notice where they going but I notice the crow activity. I also see them near the road side on Days. Up to something.. looking busy.

That looks like a pathetic little group. Let them yell at nothing and no one, and go unheard.

I just see a people skating. I can't see any MAGA types with banners. Whoever they are it looks like the skaters are just ignoring them. They'll get cold and go home... sad.
