Although the Barbie movie was good I hate the trend of corporate propaganda in the form of movies. There was a pop-tart one that I saw and it annoys me a lot because all it's trying to do is say "we're a cool brand! Buy our products :D!!!"

I still think about the Barbie film every now and then, subverted my expectations and it was really enjoyable.

A bad analogy can be detrimental, like a submarine taking on water to descend into the ocean.

sometimes you meet people for whom you literally cannot think of a description for other than “cutie patootie”

The fact that Tow Mater is literally knighted in Cars 2 and then that's never talked about in Cars 3 (ignoring the spy stuff and rocket boosters) is a crime. He's literally Sir Tow Mater

Fun fact: the reason I haven't sworn yet in my life most likely is because I bottle up my negative emotions and don't properly express them. Additionally, this is the first time I have ever externally expressed just how bad this is inside of me, including with family and friends mainly because I fear that few will understand and that I have grown accustomed to fearing self expression or negative emotions. I think I'm also afraid of losing the people I'm closest to because of the negativity I feel sometimes.

If you are feeling this way too, express it to someone. Even writing it here where only internet strangers will see it can help.

Do you think AI can generate IGOR by Tyler, The Creator? By The Time I Get to Phoenix by Injury Reserve? Everywhere At The End Of Time by The Caretaker? Everything Everywhere All At Once? Into/Across The Spider-Verse? Love, Death & Robots? Utopia? A Picasso painting? A Zdzisław Beksiński painting? Can it write Animal Farm by George Orwell? Watership Down by Richard Adams? I don’t think it can. Art is made by humans to connect with other humans, to make us feel, think, and more. Human art understands humans. AI art only understands what it is fed. It can generate a generic picture but yet can’t generate a hand properly, one of the earliest pieces of art ever made were handprints and a computer can’t understand it enough to generate it right. I think that says a lot about the difference between human and AI art. AI and tech bros don’t understand this about art, they never will and even if they did or do they don’t care, they see art merely as a product, a commodity with no other value than the price tag slapped on it. “How much can we charge a subscription to access this art for?” is the only thought that crosses the minds of people who champion this kind of soulless, emotionless “art”.
