Trying to see something, What's the ultimate comic book artist for you? Not necessarily the best illustrator or the flashiest, but the quintessential sequential artist For me, it's Alan Davis He can draw anything, keep a monthly schedule, not afraid of getting silly, and a very underrated writer.

🎶…Just stop your crying, it's a sign of the times We gotta get away from here We gotta get away from here Stop your crying, baby, it'll be alright They told me that the end is near We gotta get away from here We never learn, we've been here before…🎶 - Sign of the Times by Harry Styles

The business of "A.i." is based on a lack of consent. The corporations pushing it don't ask if anyone wants it; they force it on us. They use it to surveil. They offer it to creeps to create nudes of others without permission. It's a business run by creeps with the ethics of creeps.

"A.i." is a tool of exploitative capitalism, not a leveler or equalizer. Its function is fraud and exploitation, not liberation.

"A.i." makes money for billionaires and gives c-suite incompetents and private equity goons an excuse to fire people. It doesn't actually help anyone else - it just obligates people to work faster and do a sloppier, shittier, more dehumanizing job.

"A.i." is bullshit. "A.i." detection tools are bullshit. "A.i." in education is bullshit. "A.i." in the arts is bullshit. "A.i." in business and government is bullshit.
