Mystic (Earth-93 Project)

an unused jean grey costume Jim Lee designed back in the day

this unused Jean Grey costume would work really well as a yellowjacket costume in e4. maybe a Bumblebee look

If I had any begrudging respect for Brevoort, I'd say making such a mediocre era of X-Comics was a brilliant play. Krakoa has been so utterly divorced from everything, readers who don't know any better might believe it was wholly inconsequential. Barely worth bringing up.

Finding out that AI is a bipartisan issue, in that libs and MAGAs alike clap like seals with how neat it is and scoff at the considerable negatives of an unregulated AI processing market...I suddenly understand how it was able to get such a foothold so fast. 😑

For one, pointing out a whole other mass environmental drain doesn't suddenly negate the harm made by another. If you're asking me if we should abolish AI farming AND meat agriculture? Yes. But second, even if the bubble bursts soon, AI can still create exponential devastation.

For one, not nearly to the extent that processing centers are. But more importantly, shut up with this "damned if you do" response I get all the freaking time from y'all. Acknowledging tools are unethical and then continuing to use/defend them doesn't make you look good, my guy.

Creative work IS work

Just a reminder --

AI processing centers are actively worsening people's living conditions. So, yes. Unethical.

"I'm havin a breakdown," says one crudely-drawn stick figure to another. "You'll be OK," says the second. The first stick figure exclaims, "AGGHHH", and collapses. His head and outstretched arms and legs spell out the letters O-K.

You’ll Be OK

the entire economy is ai data centers and gambling your life savings on real life tragedies and events

life is long and i've seen a lot of things come and go but i will not stand for the rehabilitation of the ron howard grinch. motherfucker i was THERE in the theater. i was there

It literally isn't. The proliferation of typewriters didn't make writers lose their jobs. There was never a huge writers and actors strike in objection to the printing press.

How are those things contradictory? No wonder you're big into AI, if you're this unimaginative

No, I have a strong conviction as to why I'm against such things. You, on the other hand, are an adult in his mid-thirties who adds every social media post with "lol" and actively defends what goes against your best interests as a working creative.

You've got to be the softest, daintiest little wuss on the planet if that was the meanest thing you've ever seen on the Internet.

If mean, if those donuts were poisoning low-income people and actively worsening their living conditions, absolutely.

A dude openly calling himself a feminist is violently fedora-tipping behavior. But no, I'm referring more to your smarmy attitude that does nothing but stroke your ego.

Not applicable.

You won't be able to work full time for very long if AI becomes the standard for writing.

I'm honestly shocked you're not wearing a fedora in your pfp, with the vibes you've been giving off.

So, you're a hack, then?

You try. And if it doesn't quite take the shape of what's in your head, you try again. You keep at it over a long period, because it's a fulfilling thing for you to do and not just a short-term dopamine hit.

And how are you doing on having a flippant lack of ethics?

How about just saying AI art is bad and unethical?

if you're one person making a comic by yourself, don't treat yourself like you should function on the same level as comics that have multiple people working on them. your backgrounds can be squiggles and colors.

allow yourself room to be abstract with details and give yourself some grace
