Oh no! It’s a generated image that uses the original as a prompt instead of text. ItS sO dIfFeReNt
- Comment on It's that time again 1 week ago:
The screenshot I used is the original. So the difference in pose is the biggest giveaway. But also the ridiculously bold line art. Incredibly thin, black lines. King of the Hill uses more faded lines with colors that better match the background they’re on.
And the most egregious, Hank would never plead with Bobby, which is the face that the ai put on him. He’s mad and he shows when he’s mad

If it isn’t, then it’s upscaled (which is the same thing)

Pretty sure it was all the cigarette smoke prematurely aging people
- Comment on It's that time again 1 week ago:
Why is this ai when there’s so much king of the hill material that isn’t? You could even use the actual screenshot from this actual scene, rather than some ai nightmare fuel
- Comment on It's that time again 1 week ago:
Know what’s really not cool Bobby? Using ai to approximate King of the Hill when there are real King of the Hill screenshots you could’ve used.

Much in the same way that a pickle (gherkin) is a cucumber. But they ain’t equivalent
- Comment on Anon judges Karl 2 weeks ago:
Yes, and I think me arguing “meet people where they are” or “speak to be understood” better fits what you’re saying than the guy digging his heels in over the definition of liberal
- Comment on Anon judges Karl 2 weeks ago:
Yes, and as I already said elsewhere, speak to be understood. In the US, I have to account for semantic drift. You don’t, which is great, but 4chan is an American institution.
So, when the comment we’re all replying under drew the comparison between liberal and 4chan, the underlying context was that this was from an American perspective. So I talked about that, instead of talking about all possible contexts. Isn’t language neat?
Yes, Americans are ignorant, but it’s because of our incredibly loud propaganda. I would ask for kindness, but I’m certainly not gonna force it. I get being frustrated by the American-centric-ness that we all sort of drag around with us. I try to be humble, but it’s really hard to know the shit you don’t know, ya know?
- Comment on Anon judges Karl 2 weeks ago:
Yes… by teaching people. Meaning you need to reach them. If the way you talk is a barrier to being understood, you’re going to reach way less people, my man.
I’m gonna quote scripture, not cause I’m Christian or anything (catholic apostate atheist), but because my sister fell into a Christian cult so this is an example that quickly comes to mind (her “church” had a real goofy interpretation of this that a lot of new American Christian Cults regularly have). 1 Corinthians 14:3-8, where Paul tells the Corinthians, who were holding mass at the time in Hebrew, that they need to speak to be understood. If they hold mass speaking a language that no one outside their church understands, they only lift themselves up. But if they speak to be understood, then they can lift up everyone.
Sorry to say, while using liberal in the way you do is definitely a nice shorthand to be able to identify people who are safe for you to express your views with, it also alienates those who don’t know what the historical term means. Speak Latin, dammit (that was how the catholic church misinterpreted Paul’s teaching in this letter. And the new Christians use it to promote speaking tongues. Aren’t religions great? /s)
- Comment on Anon judges Karl 2 weeks ago:
Yes, historically that is the case. Semantics drift over time, though. Even though both liberals and conservatives are classical liberals, only one actually still uses the liberal label. When you don’t acknowledge semantic drift, you alienate others because they can’t follow what you’re saying. If you want to destroy capitalism, you need to make the circle of people bigger, not shoulder people out before they begin.
Phrased another way, you want to move the Overton window leftwards, not contribute to it shrinking to the right.

Oh shit! This was on the ballot somewhere? Show me! Where was the 4-day work week anywhere on anyone’s platform?
Cause it sounds like you fell for vague hope pushing. I think Sanders might’ve talked about the importance of that, but that’s not an actual policy in any platform I’ve seen.
- Comment on It’s Well Past Time for a Four-Day Workweek 2 weeks ago:
Yes, so that you feel shame that you’re stressed, so you don’t talk to anyone else about it. It’s both a control and cheap union busting tactic.

- Comment on Femality is stored in the nipples 2 weeks ago:
Video games are marketed to men cause video games historically were marketed to boys… because toy stores were strictly gendered in the 80s, so they made the choice least likely to impact sales (girls can play with boy toys, but boys can’t play with girl ones)
Like, dude, preferences among genders are usually societally conditioned rather than distillations of some essential gender shit. Video games in the united states are mainly played by women, if you’re not counting strictly console gaming.

Yeah, wouldn’t want to be associated with those boots when we’re stomping workers. That’d be embarrassing
- Comment on Femality is stored in the nipples 2 weeks ago:
Not how we’re wired, how patriarchy views both forms. Seriously, you can’t just put up a study that confirms an assumption of patriarchy without acknowledging that it is, on some level, circular logic.
Patriarchy is the dominant worldview, patriarchy says that beauty is a feminine trait, most people agree that women are more beautiful than men. All that proves is that most people accept the patriarchal definition of beauty.
If you conducted this same study in ancient Greece, would you expect the same result? If no, then cultural views of beauty play a big role in this. If yes, then why were the ancient Greeks obsessed with male nudity?
- Comment on Femality is stored in the nipples 2 weeks ago:
And despite all of that maturity, they still do male-gaze, heteronormative centric design.
Type A halflings (male presenting) are all dumpy and kinda goofy-looking. Type B halflings are all banging smokeshows. Give me the dumpy looking halflings, man.
In Cyberpunk, the camera lingers on nude women, but hides or ignores male nudity, even if the player character is fem presenting and chooses a male partner.
There’s a YouTube video about this, but I can’t find it. I’ll update later if I do (and remember)

- Comment on The thrill 2 weeks ago:
Yes, it’s based on another Korean show (called Good Doctor). It was actor Daniel Dae Kim who helped bring the show to America. He is also the actor Freddie Highmore played opposite in the now infamous “I am a surgeon” scene.
- Comment on The thrill 2 weeks ago:
In your defense, Freddie Highmore looked very young in the first season. Made especially egregious cause he played a young autistic man who didn’t know how to mask. It made him read as much younger than he is.

He’s not sure why he’s here
- Comment on The thrill 2 weeks ago:
No, he’s an adult who went to medical school at the usual time.
There are frequent flashbacks to his traumatic as fuck childhood, but he’s an adult doctor.

Yes, I know. There is for everything. Porn is about chasing taboo. I don’t need to talk about it, just won’t judge others for it. Have fun, leave me out of it. Thank you, love you, please go!
- Comment on When your computer says "You don't have permission to edit this file": 3 weeks ago:
So? How the hell is it supposed to know that when you’re trying to do things wrong? Would you rather it let any one do anything, so long as they control the mouse?
- Comment on and i love that for people 3 weeks ago:
I hate that I’m saying this.
I would much rather this be people’s outlet for white guilt than punishing minorities for existing. Like, it gives me the ick but they’re not hurting anyone by doing this.
Long story short, don’t yuck other’s yums if they don’t cause harm to others.
… I’m not happy about it, though.

- Comment on belt tight around my neck being pulled back hard in doggy >>> 3 weeks ago:
Please, no belts. Something that can be cut with scissors, and have said scissors on hand. Limbs (including heads) swell when cut-off from blood supply. Something that requires some degree of looseness to remove, like a belt, should never be used to restrain a limb, unless it’s being used as a tourniquet.
- Comment on Imagine How embarrassing that would be 3 weeks ago:
Sure, yeah. I can see that. Lots of very thin metaphors for the Ukraine invasion, though.
