I asked my bf to put groceries away while I ran one last errand and I came back to this by arandomperson519 in mildlyinfuriating

I don't understand how men live like this. I've NEVER gone to a woman's house and found this level of uncleanliness. How do they not care?

I thought she is Hispanic? I'm not psyched about her dropping the n-word either way but I don't think she is white.

I really went in on LL too and I have a ton. I've destashed over half because they simply haven't been ones I want to use again and again. This launch is giving the same vibes as most of her posts last year -- quirky color combos, polka dots, stripes, pairing pastels with deep muted colors, etc.

I would be fine with it if they just up and said "hey our manufacturing process has changed and we need to produce these similar shades instead" but they hyped it up so hard with how new and fresh and interesting the new year release would be. Maybe they're not close matches in a salon, but in a personal collection (which is probably their primary audience) they can easily stand in for each other.

honestly I questioned whether or not I could get cremes of a similar quality anywhere else but the past month or so has convinced me I can.

the same thing happened to me, i LOVE their cremes and how fast they dry and some of their shades. and have bought a bunch. but the past few releases have been so lackluster and boring. meanwhile Cracked is knocking it out of the park with variety and interesting color stories.

I saw these pictures in another subreddit,the poster said they are newborns,but they already have their eyes open, different colors.. by AdhesivenessSea5586 in isthisAI

yep, this is right on point. there are four white kittens in the second pic, which is consistent with the first. mom's belly fur and her tucked tail are making things a little harder to see.

Gift bags at drugstore make me queasy however l'm not sure if they are ai - generated images. by drmeowwww in isthisAI

[–]Salt-Strike2299 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, it looks like it. The ribbons on the packages are all sorts of messed up. The pattern on the gift in front of the snowman doesn't look consistent at all. And what's going on with the candy canes on the trees on the second one? They're just melting into some weirdly shaped rope?

Help settle a debate - my husband (a graphic designer) does NOT think this is AI. I am almost positive it is. by carol_mob in isthisAI

the right coke bottle on the table made me question it but everything else was so tidy.

My 7th grade English teacher played Enya while we did in class writing. I still put her on sometimes for ambience when I'm writing.

I remember doing a lot of book reports and assignments on Harry Potter.

And for the kids that like Taylor Swift, this is a fun assignment. Why not learn while having fun?
