as a standalone work, divorced of all context, BvS was a perfectly serviceable movie. I had fun watching it.

I will not apologize for offending you with facts. Also, try reading my comment again and respond to what I actually said, instead of what you think I said.

no, "didn't vote" won the popular vote.

rules don't matter if no one enforces them. republicans have been consolidating power for decades, partly by never holding their own accountable. dems are always held accountable, but usually for things that either don't matter or are entirely false.

Trump isn't held accountable because his supporters control every institution that can, and they want him to be king of america.

this, but unironically. Largest economy in the world, largest military in the world, and we just handed it to a giant toddler who thinks I should be tortured and killed for being gay. If you think you won't be affected, then you're as stupid as I am for thinking this country had a chance.

a third of us chose this, while half of us couldn't be bothered to give a shit.

sanity is an oppressed minority in the us, and it's worse than I ever could have thought.

sorry, force of habit.

this is honestly the thing that's getting me to question my atheism.

Damn. The thought-police are out in force in this thread, and are completely unable to separate fiction from reality.

holy shit does that look like a lot of money for not a lot of machine.

to copy my own comment from another similar thread:

I’m an idiot with no marketable skills. I put boxes on shelves for a living. I want to be an artist, a musician, a programmer, an author. I am so bad at all of these, and between having a full time job, a significant other, and several neglected hobbies, I don’t have time to learn to get better at something I suck at. So I cheat. If I want art done, I could commission a real artist, or for the cost of one image I could pay for dalle and have as many images as I want (sure, none of them will be quite what I want but they’ll all be at least good). I could hire a programmer, or I could have chatgpt whip up a script for me since I’m already paying for it anyway since I want access to dalle for my art stuff. Since I have chatgpt anyway, I might as well use it to help flesh out my lore for the book I’ll never write. I haven’t found a good solution for music.

I have in my brain a vision for a thing that is so fucking cool (to me), and nobody else can see it. I need to get it out of my brain, and the only way to do that is to actualize it into reality. I don’t have the skills necessary to do it myself, and I don’t have the money to convince anyone else to help me do it. generative AI is the only way I’m going to be able to make this work. Sure, I wish that the creators of the content that were stolen from to train the ai’s were fairly compensated. I’d be ok with my chatgpt subscription cost going up a few dollars if that meant real living artists got paid, I’m poor but I’m not broke.

These are the opinions of an idiot with no marketable skills.
