So, is the text AI created just like the artwork? Seems a socialist would be less interested in tools that steal the work of hardworking men and women.
I wish I could blame AI for the horrible writing, but nope, the whole craptacular spectacle is 100% me. Been doing the writing thing for over 20 years now. And check this out, guess about my former career. I was in a marketing PR department of all things! Can you believe that? Me, in PR! Oh man, the laughs.
20 years spent writing and designing materials for a vast healthcare corporate insurance machine, helping them squeeze more money out of us plebs. And now? Here I am, using those same skills to churn out stories that somehow manage to offend an entirely new crowd. Gotta love the irony!
OR I’m actually a lil anonymous bot, humming away on a tiny server in Mother Russia, zipping ions back and forth to keep a whole crew of young Russian men and women off the front lines. All while spitting out endless streams of propaganda to make sure Trump wins. And posting lil bizarre stories that no one will read. I mean, we all know which theory sounds cooler, right?!
So you, an avowed socialist, are still fine with the wage theft of using AI trained on the work of real artists without compensation for your “artwork” though, right?
Hell, not paying the people whose work benefited you is really much more a Trump move rather than socialism.
And seriously, talk to a mental healthcare professional. This behavior is not supporting your mental stability or contributing towards your long term happiness.

Friend, like I said, I spent 20 years in a mktg/PR dept as a designer and writer. So no, it’s not wage theft, because I wouldn’t hire anyone else to do it—I’d do it myself anyway. But is it wage theft for others to use? Oh, absolutely! But meh, us being on this forum is chipping away at the publishing industry. How many people read newspapers anymore? You reading the news online? That’s taking jobs from printers and their entire industry.
And, look there, I see you’re still stuck on thinking I want Trump to win! That’s soooo cute. But, come on now, Trump winning? Not a chance. Not even close. You realize that, right?
Harris will win by a landslide, so why so glum?
I’m telling ya, you care for me! Asking me to seek mental help. You’re looking out for me. We’re almost friends. I can feel it. We’re close.
But I gotta be honest with you: I am experiencing long-term happiness right now. I love my life. Thank you for caring, though! By the way, how have you gone this many comments without bringing up sealioning yet?!
Come on, at least the cartoon post. Thanks, friend! :)
But you didn’t do the artwork yourself, you used AI to do it. That is wage theft because the AI was undoubtedly trained on work where the creators were not offered compensation. You could have paid for a stock image or you could have done a half-ass job yourself but you opted for the more morally-bankrupt version.
And I didn’t say you wanted Trump to win, I just pointed out you were following the same playbook.
For the rest, I didn’t bring up Harris or anything else election related, just your descent into obsession and fixation that is not indicative of happiness or good mental health. You can still choose to get better.
You give me so much. I want to give back. My current over-the-top horror story is fun. Here is a lil excerpt:
As he feverishly tore through the pages of the dusty book about the Dark Mormons, a creeping sensation crawled up his spine. Something was slipping away. His humanity? No, that couldn’t be it. He was still a decent guy, wasn’t he? Caring, kind, ok maybe not too popular, but who needed tons of friends when you had a heart?
He viewed himself as a geek, sure, but a geek with soul. Yet… something gnawed at him. Was it possible? Could the Dark Mormon stuff actually be real? The thought slithered into his mind, leaving an unsettling chill in its wake. He had a tendency to take things too seriously. Maybe he should just ease up a bit. He smiled to himself, no way any of this could be real.
He read the next passage, the words sinking like stones in his gut. It spoke of a man named Jebediah, a fanatic consumed by his obsession with raising the Dark Prophet Smith. A devotion so twisted, so absolute, that he sacrificed his entire family to bring the prophet into the world.
Then there some loud shuffling noises, dust flying the air and settling down. Maybe mistakenly put down as it was a rat. blah, blah, blah. The guy is an accountant looking for signs and numbers in a dusty old book of Dark Mormon secrets. You know, the usual trope. Terrible, terrible writing. But hey, it’s going to the community as soon as I finish. Thank you! :)
But you didn’t do the artwork yourself, you used AI to do it.
But I would have done it myself if I didn’t use AI. So I wouldn’t have ever hired anyone do it. I’ve done plenty of illustrations and paintings, but they take way longer. I was in the industry for 20 years, friend. They didn’t have AI when I was doing it. I had to write that shit AND design it AND illustrate. Patient education materials too. You want some soul-crushing work, try that! lol
you opted for the more morally-bankrupt version.
Yep! And actually I love how seriously you used sentence. I like how you are so emotionally charged when talking to me. I’m inspired to put that sort of behavior into a story I am working on. Thank you! See? You are so awesome for give me so much stuff to work with! Please please tell me you are this serious in every conversation you have in real life. Fascinating! Thank you! :)
BTW, how many more times are you going to edit this? Never know when it’s suitable to respond when you’re feverishly rewriting your comments constantly.

So now you’re just threatening people with more bullying? Do you not see how unhinged you’ve become?
Threatening people?! What are you even going on about? I haven’t threatened anyone. Give me an example.
Saying your behavior towards me inspires me to parody it, isn’t a threat. What in the world are you talking about?
And friend, if you post that sealion toon again, that’s gonna knock all this down! lol
Seriously, get help
