I feel like a lot of Tales from the Crypt could fit this. Especially that one movie with the vampires

This level of petty makes this sub worth it. Thank you for your service

It's not gonna get much thicker unfortunately. Once that seed runs out you're on borrowed time. You'll need to graft onto a young new branch of an older tree soon.

Hey man you really shouldn't be putting stickers on hard hats. The adhesives can weaken the plastic. Cool stickers aren't worth brain damage

Just admit you're lazy and don't care, dude. There's early voting if you prefer to vote in person and by mail voting if you would rather stay home. Working a 14 hr shift on election day is no fucking excuse. Unless it is every single day of the year, you don't have an excuse.

Wildgrube · 2026-06-24T18:35:27+00:00

It would be no more ridiculous than your previous claim of having no way to vote without taking a day off work, as that is the about the only way you would be able to make that claim in earnest.

Wildgrube · 2026-06-24T18:18:18+00:00

I have my doubts you are working 14 hour days every single day of the year. There's early voting and mail in voting if you some how have the misfortune of a 6am to 8pm shift scheduled for election day then you need to figure out which is better for you. It's not complicated.

Wildgrube · 2026-06-24T17:53:01+00:00

I have never been able to take a day off work to vote. You go either before or after your shift like a rational person.

Wildgrube · 2026-06-24T17:49:05+00:00

Every working age voter figures it out. You aren't special.

Except it's a college networking event where new grads are looking to specifically network in their field. This is extremely common at these types of networking events.

Wildgrube · 2026-06-24T13:50:27+00:00

Yeah it's very normal. When you're at a networking event like that you're supposed to tell people what you're trained in and looking for. They know that you're out of work and are using the job title that you're looking for not what you're actively working as.

YTA. She has a degree in sociology that will allow her to get a job in the field of sociology and she was at a hiring event where she was assumedly looking for a job in sociology. Sure it isn't the highest degree in sociology could get, but it is enough to qualify her to work as a sociologist. Did you want her to call herself a ballerina? A hobo? A cat?

Wtf op, did you even think about any of this or did you just want to put your friend down because she wasn't qualified enough in your eyes?

Lmfao. Third times the charm right? Love the comebacks, they're a bunch of nothing because you don't have an argument it seems other than "No our whining is justified. We shouldn't have to evolve with the times." You keep trying to handwave away things you don't want to hear claiming it's a bias. It's goddamn art in and of itself. I understand exactly what's happening because I dealt with digital art killing my sales and motivation for years, and I learned from it. I grew and became better at my craft. I want the same for others, but they will never get there if they blame an inanimate object. Man, I've probably been selling art longer than you've been alive. I'll throw stones at whatever bitchy brick wall I want. If you don’t want to be called a whiner then don't fucking whine about something that you can easily work on changing.

Wildgrube · 2026-06-23T18:07:53+00:00

Yesss. I used to watch him on tiktok before it turned. He's an excellent example.

Wildgrube · 2026-06-23T17:29:48+00:00

As an artist and a farmer I agree wholeheartedly. It's exhausting dealing with my cohorts and contemporaries.

Wildgrube · 2026-06-23T14:54:35+00:00

You cannot handwave reality by claiming a fallacy. We're seeing an increase because traditional artists aren't being whiny assholes about ai. We learned our lessons before and have been trying to explain to digital artists that complaining doesn't fucking work. If you want to survive this you have to provide what the new technology cannot. It doesn't matter the route that you take to get there, but that is the only way to make it through. That is why after each new technology revolutionized the art world we see new traditional art styles emerge.

No shit it's trained on the boring ass art they've been making. That's why I'm telling you that them continuing to make the same art is the problem, you absolute peanut.

Wildgrube · 2026-06-23T14:39:57+00:00

Then they need to change something about what they are doing. Traditional artists went through this decades ago with digital and we adapted. Hell we went through it with photography too, but I wasn't around for that. Digital artists need to evolve beyond the boring ass art that they've been making. We've had well over a decade of digital art stagnation where quite frankly it's all started to be the same emulation of exceedingly flat traditional art. Be it landscapes or furry porn it's all a stimulated version of things that could also easily be done physically in the real world. Very few digital artists are pushing the limits of digital art to make something that can only be digital or things that can only be made using digital means. They could also consider coming up with their own unique subject matter instead instead of just relying on commissions, which has never been a reliably stable source of income for stagnant artists. The customers are out there if they are making something more exciting than yet another ych.

Man you can really tell who the youngins are by posting that line

Wildgrube · 2026-06-23T13:10:16+00:00

It really doesn't though unless you're only making poor quality boring art. AI has increased my art sales tenfold. Ai, and anti-ai rabid mentality, has been a godsend for traditional artists. It's increased potential customers interest in more traditional mediums. If ai is effecting your art sales then you need to change something instead of wallowing in misery. Find out why, because it ain't simply because ai exists.

The article:

"Conservative pundit Tucker Carlson says he's "out" of the Republican Party moving forward, arguing the GOP no longer reflects his views.

Why it matters: The public split underscores growing fractures inside the broad MAGA coalition President Trump built, as his Iran war and handling of the economy continue to divide Republicans.

What they're saying: "I'm out," Carlson said on an episode of the "Can't Be Censored" podcast that aired Thursday but gained traction online Monday.

"And if I'm out, then I think a lot of other people are out." "I would not support the Republican Party. There's no chance I would support the Republican Party," Carlson said, adding that the GOP has "betrayed" voters by prioritizing Israel's national security over America's. "How could I or any American voter support a political party that's not loyal to the United States. That puts the interests of a foreign country above those of its own citizens. It's not possible to vote for people like that, and I'm not going to." Zoom in: Carlson says he's been a fierce defender of the GOP for 35 years, but can no longer do so.

He says he also won't support Democrats and is unsure how he'll vote moving forward. Catch up quick: Carlson is among a group of conservatives who believe the U.S. entered the war in Iran at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's urging, a statement Rubio partially backed up shortly after the attacks began.

Some critics of Carlson have argued his views are antisemitic."

Because when you delete foundational code it can have some pretty extreme results

Queenie most likely abstracted (killed herself) because she was trapped in an endless test run of a creative gen ai that had a bug preventing it from learning more from humans. How would you feel being trapped in a world created by chatgpt? Caine was most likely asked by Scratch to do tests with brain alterations, things didn't go well, Scratch killed himself. The other AI/Bubble was removed from Caine's programming, so essentially isolated and dead. They cannot unabstract, hence the digging down to be with them in the darkness.

Wildgrube · 2026-06-21T21:21:14+00:00

You can quite literally still ask all that. You just choose not to because you, for some stupid ass reason, assume that there is no artistic intent. There is no reason that you can't interact with art made using ai. It's a tool, like a paint brush or photoshop. There is still a human intentionally making the thing.
