I'm Rad!
I make art as often as I can! I like loose and inky lineart, bold colors, and turning low-res pics into hi-res paintings.
Here's some highlights from 2021 👀 https://t.co/a3IKDWX8wR
Big reason why I've basically quit social media since February. I stopped cold turkey for a month and my life opened in ways I literally never thought possible but had always wanted. I simply don't want to disturb my peace. You can always catch me on Discord, though. I miss you.
Art is effortful. It is skilled work! And everybody is capable of creating - it's a matter of choosing how to yoke your energy and focus. Some people will bake bread & some people will paint Sistine Chapels. One feeds the body; the other feeds soul. AI slop feeds nothing but ego.
Most ideas suck an outrageous amount, period. The trick to being a creative isn't to ideate but to create. And create. And create. Create until your hands hurt & your head hurts & your heart hurts, & then keep going because you love it so much more than it hurts

A friend recently posted a quote from a theologian and one of our acquaintances commented "that's so deep, thanks for posting, I had to have chatGPT break it down for me"
I couldn't believe he admitted to outsourcing his cognitive load IN A PUBLIC FORUM. I'd sooner eat worms
Something about LLM hype culture renders a man immune to the experience of embarrassment. If I couldn’t tell the difference between PhD-level scholarship and grammatical gibberish I simply would not announce that to a global audience.
@goblinodds@kitten_beloved It's not a love story. As others have pointed out, it's a Gothic novel which is heavy on the horror. In fact, judging by the author's v. poor opinion of Jane Austen's work, I expect that she'd be annoyed to hear her book called a "romance" in the modern sense
