In short, stop letting your fears of creating something that looks terrible stop you from creating. After all the first step towards making something great is simply making something, no matter how messy it looks.
Random thought: the barrier to entry to art is the fear of imperfection. Contrary to what seems to be popular belief, artists aren't born snapping Mona Lisa's into existence, most start with doodles of similar quality of early cave paintings.
Artists instead embraced the flaws to build something more. They carved ideas into form, and wove flawed imperfections into new ideas that added more character to the original idea. They didn't cry in the face of flaws, rather acknowledged and wove them into something better.
AI issues aside, the only way you could ever write something like this is if you've never experienced real creativity yourself. Creativity is not about the amount of output you generate per unit time, and anyone engaged in a truely creative (not derivative) endeavor knows that.

If you are the kind of person who believes that privacy is for those who obviously have something to hide, I want you to consider that maybe your failure to acknowledge and accept people's boundaries is the problem, not their lack of openness. 7/7
I know I have been posting to stuff sparsely and sporadically, but if you for any reason support any policy that requires a person to hand over an ID, selfie, or credit card virtually to another entity over your watch/search history, I want you to consider this 1/?
I don't want to get marked as a child for watching stuff I liked as a kid, or for liking video games. I also don't want to put my entire identity in the hands of a corporation that can't even do the bare minimum to help falsely flagged creators or remove obvious scam ads. 6/?
