I’d have to vote not AI. Just scanned it really close and looks very much like digital art shading and the disconnected lines are a artistic choice.

I can see where he drew the outline the fill and the shading, looks natural. But it’s hard as hell to tell each day.

Think the safest thing artists can do these days is a return to physical media (paint, ink, charcoal). Digital art like this is just so easy for AI to shit out. Not a craft issue, not because it’s easy. But because digital is heavily in it’s toolkit.

I shut mine down by overheating it.

Once you remove the tag the ancient protection seal is broken. Without it the monster that lives under your bed is now allowed on your bed. The monster doesn’t eat you or anything. The monster likes to warm it’s cold feet on your back and steal all the covers, so it’s a terrible sleeping partner.

I agree it’s weirder that people don’t recognize poor people as humans with human needs.

It’s ok to stop and get a $7 coffee sometimes and still be poor. You are allowed to spend $100 at a bar and be poor. Not everyone is mismanaging their money that got them to be poor, some of them grew up in it and stay that way.

Some poor people know there is no miracles going to pull them out of a shitty situation, doesn’t mean they need to live a life of fucking toil and despair. Everyone needs to get off their fucking backs for enjoying a moment of what most well off folks get to enjoy without a thought.

Also the CDC doesn’t have the budget that movie has. Today’s CDC would be lucky to be given a $10 Walmart grabber stick to catch the monkey with.
