Taken from Sam Landman on FB but not sure if he is the artist. Graphic saying AI is for losers, reject fascism think for yourself. I can make Art that’s ugly and bad all by myself thank you very much

kill the imposter syndrome in you head because not only is there someone out there doing it worse than you, they're also using chat gpt to do it

My depression keeps making me sink deeper in tar of despair, it's hard.. I really wanted to finish my zine for Kuplii and now feel incredibly disappointed in myself for not being able to do so.. My doctor suggested trying "transcranial magnetic stimulation", considering it. I'm tired of my brain.

''Ermmm it's unprofessional to talk about ''politics'', you'll lose followers!''

Oh shit my bad, here let me say this instead-
Fuck ICE
Fuck MAGA
Free Palestine
Trans rights
Black lives matter

I could give two fucks if people unfollow, i'm not here to surround myself by bigots.

Oikeesti suosittelen! Itteä ainaki auttanut tosi paljon se ku löytää just hyvältä tuntuvan kynän jolla kirjottaa paperiin, iha mitä vaan keksiikään! Kirjotan usein tekstit eka paperille ja sit diginä niiden päälle, ku suoraan piirtiksellä kirjottaminen ei "näytä samalta" :D

If you’re ever frustrated or fed up with your work, remember that you’re not alone. Even Tove Jansson tried to kill the Moomins with a mallet

itseäkin usein häiritsee epäselkeä käsiala varsinkin zineissä, eikä sellaisen lukeminen meinaa sujua keskittymis- että lukihäiriön kanssa sitten millään! yritän itse panostaa siihen että käsialani olisi mahdollisimman helposti luettavaa, että myös visuaalisesti miellyttävän näköistä.

Mä sain aikanaan (~16v sitten...) usein noottia ettei mun sarjispäiviksistä saanu selvää huonon käsialan takia.. ja sit aloin opetella! Kysyin pari vuotta sitten eräältä nimekkäältä typografian opettajalta kritiikkiä käsialaani, eikä tämä keksinyt siihen mitään korjattavaa. Kannatti panostaa!✌️

My depression is hitting all time low after my dog Riemu passed away few weeks ago💔 I must admit that I can't push myself to finish my new zine for Kuplii this year, i'm in such a poor shape.. But i'll get it done for a later convention this year. I have new merch though, so that's something.

Tekoälyä pidetään harmittomana hupailuna ja kätevänä työkaluna. Näin luovan työn tekijänä näen siinä myös riskin omien oikeuksien loukkaamiseen. Nyt tämä loukkaus osui todella lähelle. Ensimmäinen kuva on Vesa-Matti Väärän ottama ja se julkaistiin esikoiskirjassani 1/4

Love that AI, a thing we hate and don’t want, steals everything, ruins everything, shittifies everything. Drinks our water, plagiarizes our art, pisses all over our information fidelity, drives kids to suicide, serves the right-wing, and fucks up our devices and services. Good job, techbros!

We don't need AI, but we do need a livable Earth. We can't have both.

It’s crazy the sheer number of supposedly rational people who were like “ok but it’s good at health stuff” early on.

Frodo: I wish so much unbelievably stupid shit had not happened in my time

Gandalf: So do all who live to see such times. This is all exceptionally stupid, though

Hi David, apologies for the late response.

Appreciate you getting in touch and thank you for the interest. I find your AI project to be a deep insult to my craft and profession, being associated with it would cause great personal grief to me, so I must decline.

Worst of luck. Thank you,

If you are wondering how I respond to job offers to work on AI games, this is how.

I want it on the record of history that artists realized the harm immediately and were (and continue to be) loud bitches trying to stop the idiots who are out of their minds.

idk how i'll afford getting the charging port or battery changed, sigh.. might just have to survive with this until Kuplii, in hopes I get some new zines sold there... zines that I still haven't made...

what the heck is going on with my luck, my phone decided it's no longer charging unless I browse tumblr with it? I just got it paid💀

Thank you, it's been a lot lately..🥲

and oh yeah, PokemonGo is not very suitable for finnish winter! I mostly collect pokestops while in a car so that I can send people better looking presents than the depressing sandbox I can reach from our apartment :)

It's a constant struggle to be an artist who'd benefit from being online, but is just too anxious about AI invading artist safe spaces.. It's exhausting that we now have to be constantly alert, inspecting everything in case it's AI, before we can even enjoy the pictures we see online.

But, I struggle to share my traditional stuff online compared to digital.. So I just draw the hard way, and don't even receive dopamine from the online interactions? <:) make it make sense..
