Yeah, I’m pretty sure they were incapable of smiling before now.

clearly…

But they do it all as salamanders! Hilarious!

Funny, my media server automatically skips the intro at just about that point, lol

That doesn’t really sound like writers block, it sounds like writer apathy.

There have been countless writings for thousands of years, ever since humans learned to write. That’s no reason not to write something.

Imagine if Plato or Shakespeare or James Joyce thought to themselves, “Ah, why bother? There’s already so much shit out there…“

I always found this episode hilarious. I don’t understand the hate.

No shit

Back in my day, we called this sort of person a “spy“

Nah… It’s just that their meme is melting

Mmmm

You underestimate your enemy. That’s the first step in defeat.

Acting like your shitty government is somehow better or less corrupt than the American government somehow, is the second step

Also, Trump can’t pardon anyone outside of the United States for anything.

Legit question. Apparently, these data centers need a massive amount of water to cool them. This pollutes the water, and without proper regulations on AI data centers, it’s totally legal.

Just Google “AI toxic wastewater” and you’ll get a bunch of articles about it.

If they fire you and then make your coworker work twice as hard for the same pay, then you definitely should.

If they fire your coworker and make you work twice as hard for the same pay, then you definitely should.

If they fire both of you, and then give everyone in your town cancer from the toxic water runoff from a massive AI data center they just built, then you definitely should.

While also eliminating 12 jobs

Keep them out of the United States, too, please

Excellent work. Did you go to school for art or design?

If someone has enough talent to create this, they can do it with any equipment.

This here? Pen and paper. Sure, an extremely fine-tipped pen with extremely and reliably even ink flow, and good illustration paper that will absorb the ink evenly without blotting, yeah. But that’s not where the magic is.

The magic is being talented and having spent many years developing one’s skill.

Someone may have been born with all of the talent in the world, but it still takes years and years of practice to develop the skills in order to harness such a talent. Whether it’s sculpture or graphic design or illustration, as it is here, even if you had a ton of talent at birth, it would still take many years of practice to get this good. Although, it is worth mentioning, that people of even middling talent can, with enough practice, develop a skill level that elevates their art quite remarkably.

As an example, well, I have decades of experience with art and design, etc., my hands shake. I would never be able to maintain such fine control in order to create something like this on paper, but I’ve been able to create stuff like this digitally, because it allows me to edit mistakes.

One works with the tools that work for them.

Edit: I am more than happy to give out my own personal recommendations, all you must do is ask
