>>204993 do you follow any of your own countries cows? what's funny is here, we have a show called the 'farm' (kek) where they put the biggest idiots they could find a la big brother style. i hate it though, they are so vulgar it's not even entertaining, just sad, especially since it's on 24/7
haruomi hosono's music is so sick. i got a synthesizer for christmas so ive been trying to listen to more music that includes synths and really pay attention to the arrangement of songs to get some inspo for my own projects. apparently he was also an early adopter of using video game sound effects in his music and arranged an album for Namco with songs from their games back in '84. cool shit
>>205007 i love Sakamoto but i actually haven't listened to much YMO despite Sakamoto and Hosono both being members, so i'll be sure to check out their stuff some more! thx n0nna
I went out to get my mail today and was wondering why my mailbox smelled weird. It was my fucking amazon package! You know that sweetish smell that rotting food gets? It was faintly like that.
>>205012 I'm not sure if you're the same as the hosono but that doesn't matter, you are (both) going to want to check out the 1980 Budokan live. The way they play their music live is so interesting to watch, especially the guy in the middle back.
>>205025 You're welcome. My language barrier is preventing me from expressing myself clearly here but I'll try anyway. I think the guy in the middle back is doing the "electronic music" bit. His equipment rack is humongous and it's so interesting. DJs nowadays have just like a couple tables or something but this guy has a mountain of equipment there. It's so interesting. I really hope you'll like it.
>>205002 I don't actually, sometimes it feels like I'm completely cut off from our entertainment industry. Although, I used to be friends with a gay dude that now became a semi popular influencer famous for his hot takes. Christ how did the farm thing never cross my mind, that's hilarious.
>>205027 no worries, i get what you mean! i went to a music equipment store yesterday and saw some old music mixing equipment that was absolutely massive, it's cool to think about how people are able to just use their computers instead of those huge machines nowadays, but i love the look and the complexity of massive synthesizers and mixers with all the buttons and switches. it's really a talent to be able to operate one of those things during a live performance
>>205002 my personal cow used to be the tranny son of the president but after people accused him of throwing partys during lockdown he closed all of his accs.
why don't you put your thumb up your butt is still one of the funniest comebacks in the world to me. don't know if it's because i don't socialize but i've never heard anyone use that before and it caught me so off guard the first time i watched this KEK it sent me to tears i couldn't even focus on the rest of the scene
>>205049 oh i thought you were also ex-yu and i missed our troon. lmao at the drag pikachu that's so fucking funny. sorry for deleting didn't want to samefag
went on lolcow could'nt really tell how dead or alive it was, guess i'll vent her about how much i really hate captcha's. They never seem to work for me, I assume it must be something wrong with my computer. I keep refreshing and refreshing, this isn't the first time this has happened to me either.
>>205048 kek that reminds me of an ED article from way back that was talking about Pedo bear and said that "in Japan, everything is assumed to be pedophilic, so he is merely called kuma"
some nobody from a one hit wonder band in the UK blocked the entirety of radfem twitter and it's hilarious because everyone's response is "literally who"
>>205068 so you made me do some research. the farm is actually a franchise owned by a swedish company, and they sold the format to 40 countries. latvia is listed as one of them on the wikipedia article, so yeah pretty sure it's the same thing, just different language, nationalitiy and vibes, but at the end of the day, these types of shows attract the bottom of the barrel types
Does very straight and thick asian hair even get tangled? I'm thinking like that of like Japanese models. Not racebaiting or anything, I just fucking hair my straight, thin hair that has just he minimal amount of waviness just to make it fucking tangled if I dare to even move.
>>205079 yes, me. i was really hoping Klaus would finally show them the possibilities of using both and bringing that magic back but oh well. hopefully we see more movies like Klaus
>>205080 I have slightly wavy 1c asian hair which is very thick and it gets tangled super easily. I wash it once or twice per week and use some hair products but it still happens.
>>205081 i used to hate CGI until i started watching dreamwork movies, they are currently making really cool shit and revolutionazing the genre instead of copying Disney's plastic doll style. This movie was okayish plotwise, but my god i love the animation.
>>205084 I recommend you to watch the bad guys! Dreamworks is currently trying to mix 2D into their movies and it looks amazing. I am autistically waiting until this is pirated in good quality, i heard its really good.
>>205080 my sister is filipino so her hair is thick and straight and her hair tangles like mad. she used to cry brushing it if she left it unbrushed for too long
>>205086 >>205091 thanks n0nny! i especially like how in The Bad Guys trailer snappy the animation is. i guess that's what happens when you're not afraid to use less frames per second! looks dope imo Puss in Boots looks really fun too!
>>205095 Ok but the examples in that picture suck. The 2C is ring-curl similar to the ones in porslain dolls but worn out a bit (which is an artificial curl, not a wave), and the transition between 2C to 3A is much more subtle. All 3- ones look too similar too.
old asian men are nearly all the same shape. watching a korean drama right now and i can see my dad in like every old man in this series. or maybe i just miss him
>>205110 >>205116 I think Nietzsche would be too. He'd have a thread that would die off and then be bumped later when he was going insane. The thread would then be bumped with milk on his sister because she edited pro-nazi sentiments into his posthumous material.
>>205120 lmao wow his mom eviscerated him. He was only 19 in 1807 so I'm kind of conflicted about wether it's too harsh… but no doubt she was right about him being annoying.
>>205124 I used to play when I was a kid + teenager but haven't been into playing much as an adult. Maybe I'll get back into it one day. I like the idea of trying some more classical guitar. What sort of things would you like to play?
>>205124 It's not hard. Make sure to keep the rhythm always, that way you will improve faster. 99,8% of guitar moids are subpar guitarists, they just act clever about it.
I know i shouldnt fall for obvious moid bait but recently i have been thinking that asian jeans are real, wish i could doompost on the art salt thread so my n0nies can slap me back to reality
>>205154 I found the Michel Thomas method really good. He sort of links words you probably already know, so after learning one thing, you have automatically learned dozens of words. You can gain traction really quickly which I liked.
The audiobooks also make you feel like you are part of a lesson group, by pausing for your turn amongst other people learning on the tape. You can find the courses on torrent or soulseek etc. Then when you're a bit more confident, maybe join some online or IRL groups to practise conversation.
>>205154 Download anki (good flashcard app) and then download French decks Watch children's shows in French Talk to French natives through hellotalk or something similar Look at hinative when you're confused on anything
>>205158 n0nny the rate of art gains in that image aren't even that impressive. ive seen younger western artists go from deviantart burn tool shading to full rendering in a year. you just have to practice autistically and constantly
>>205167 yeah this. most people can see a drastic improvement in their art/music/ect skills if they practice for hours upon hours a day. most people just don't have the time/energy/work ethic to do that but it's totally possible
>>205178 radtwt is lit rn. there are some rogue jannies banning people for the mildest things but there are hundreds of women calling trannies men in womenface, TiMs, etc. and not catching bans or catching tempbans infrequently so who knows. I think you will get banned for saying 'tranny' and probably 'troon' though. still terf twitter is pretty fun though.
>>205183 I love that artist too. I wanted to write her a message of support since I think she's underrated but I didn't know how to word it in jp and worried I'd be creepy
>>205185 she's so good! and yeah she is crazy underrated, I don't understand why. I would just write her a message in english if I was you >>205188 I dumped so much in the westaboo thread. i should check in on that super-skilled goofy yumejo…
>>205191 i am so glad i made the westaboo thread! i wasnt expecting for it to catch up > i should check in on that super-skilled goofy yumejo… kek, for me is the carl yumejo
>>205193 they actually were kind of sucky this year. I'm gonna see what I can do to make 2023 less cursed >>205201 she is highly prolific, we could easily max out the thread with her goofy drawings
Artfag nonn1es, I need reassurance. Do you guys think AI will really replace digital artists in the near future? People are saying that it's only a matter of time before the technology becomes indistinguishable from human art, and I see that trolls are already claiming actual artists' artworks as their own with AI and it's kind of making me feel demotivated in all honesty
anyway, I had a very good phone call with my brother. Where I told him of how I felt about my life. He literally just told me, "Live, do what you want, be happy. If what you are doing makes you happy do that" It's not. I've hid out for years. I'm fat, I may not be pretty, but i'm me. I will be the best me I can be this year and finally live. Work on losing weight but ALSO living my life. I deserve to at least try for myself. I'm not out of my depression but for the first time I see myself outside my prision. I can exist. I can try and fail, The past is behind me and the future doesn't exist. I will be okay. My plan the reast of this year and up until my bday? Live. Drink, get into consueling, eat be happy. The first full week of January (after my b-day) Will be where I start my life nonni3s. It may be a shitty life or a good life, I do not know but I will try. I will try
>>205215 >Do you guys think AI will really replace digital artists I don't but it's just my uneducated gut feeling. I have no idea how the industry works for those who actually make money off digital art. people aren't gonna stop making art just because a computer can do it too.
joshua moon makes me feel physically ill. i see his fat retarded face and i feel like i'm gonna vomit and tears form in my eyes. i hate him please stop posting him he makes me homicidal
>>205215 For what definition of "art", ? AI will probably see a lot of use in advertising and consumer kitsch like T-shirts, won't lie, and that's bread and butter for a lot of people. There was a discussion about AI art the other night that I feel like sort of missed that point in that it was talking about whether AI-generated art was "just aesthetic" or "art."
>>205215 depends, right now artists are pushing against it but the world seems to be gearing towards automation. A bunch of big exes are axing their animation division for being too expensive and taking too much time in the era of mass consumption. For me AI was a mixed bag, i hate absolutely everything about it, but it made me realize how important life is to me and it helped me realize what kind of art i want to make(PC98 anime boys)
>>205220 I'm not sure of the definition, guess I was just speaking in general and specifically for commissions, but I'm kind of paranoid about putting my artwork online for fear that it'll be fed into some AI machine and somebody'll replicate my style
>>205226 yeah, netflix killed their animation studio, CN recently cancelled their last cartoon show and a bunch of animation projects, disney currently has no CGI cartoons or projects.
>>205215 They'd need to make the AI better at parsing text, it could very well. I mean even if it takes a 100-200 tries to get something right, it'd still probably be worth it for companies to use it over hiring an artist. I think fan artists are the least threatened just because there's inevitably going to be a lot of copyright restrictions added in the future, so people can't just type in "draw me Deku gangbanged" on a proprietary software at work. As in high art, I'm really not sure, they're more valuable for representing the era and its styles and sentiments, it was never really popular with "the masses".
>>205228 Holy shit, I don't want to seem like a doomer but this is making me doom. I guess corporations were never worth working for anyway. We're all replacable to them >>205230 I hope you're wrong
>>205180 What is this? All the twitter users I've seen who stated they're radfems in their bios were 18 or 19 years old and no offense but I don't want to deal with angry (for good reasons obv) kids online during my free time.
I follow a woman in Germany (@annamond on insta) who only sells original paintings, NO PRINTS ever, and I respect her so much for that. I don't know if she just doesn't want to deal with the hassle or if it's some sort of artistic integrity thing but I like it.
>>205237 radtwt is a mixed bag (t. used it for a few years until i got banned too many times and quit social media.) a majority of the twitter radfem community are young angry kids who jump into the community without having read much feminist theory, i've seen some literal 15 year olds on there who are proud of having never read dworkin or anything. but there are also some brilliant women in their late 20s/early 30s who have really good, thoughtful analyses. i'd recommend the account @LadieLabrys, she manages a radfem book archive and from her you can probably find some other good accounts to follow who are older and more mature.
if you could get a reroll in life, but what the same brain and thought process you have now but in a random body (gender of your choice, but you cannot pick your looks/body type or family)would you? You start as a baby btw. Or you can reroll as an animal but you live forever as that animal. what do ?
>>205255 >>205253 this happened to coding too, its only proffitable for companies to outsource to countries where they can pay the prompters 3 cents per hour
>>205260 you'd progress as you do now, so as a baby you'd know what you know as a baby, at 10, you'll know what you knew at 10, at 20 etc. Nothing really changes but the body/life you have and the choices you make in the future.
>>205254 human is an animal I'll pick it and will live forever but - only if it goes with an option to die voluntarily and not aging because if you will be aging in a human speed forever, well, you will just rot
Idk if anyone else has been seeing this but since Christmas I've been seeing videos on social media where parents post about their children doing something wrong, and I don't understand why they post those videos knowing that people will talk about their children. I saw a video of a mother talking about how her young daughter opened everyone's gifts and the replies were basically filled with strangers talking about how disrespectful the daughter was and how they would discipline her. I also see videos of parents pulling pranks on their children to get a certain reaction, like making them think they got one thing just for it to end up being something else. You know they will be upset and how that will like to other people, so why post it? Maybe I'm just sensitive though.
>>205266 sounds awful i cant imagine what its like to be a child nowadays, my 9yo cousin doesnt even have the attention span to read a youtuber book. I would reroll in life i could be born in the mid 70s and be a teen in the 80s/90s
>>205273 >kitsch nta but how do we define what kitschy art looks like? would there be a difference in the way a human artist creates ai art vs a non-artist (human of course)? in effect, how can we tell when art is good and when it is not when it comes to ai, and what is the effect that a human artist could have on the way ai art looks?
>>205278 I haven't seen those because don't use social media, but I know the type of video you mean. Yeah they're kinda fucked up. A kid isn't gonna die from having one prank played on them but only a dumbass or a sicko would put it online for a large audience. Posting about how your child was naughty is demented behaviour.
>>205244 That account seems interesting but it's on I'd bookmark to check from time to time instead of following it. I don't like too much political stuff on my tl when I mostly use twitter to vent and post weeb shit.
>>205281 According to Google kitsch is art, objects, or design considered to be in poor taste because of excessive garishness or sentimentality, but sometimes appreciated in an ironic or knowing way which does fit ai art. I guess ai are can be considered good by wether it looks passable or not but that is subjective too. It's a gray area.
>>205278 that reminds me of those halloween candy pranks where parents pretend to throw it away or say they ate it all. i don't really get the point, especially when the kid ends up crying
>>205282 sounds absolutely fine to me, my biggest problem growing up was not fitting in with people my age for being too nerdy and autistic over things way older than men. I wonder if i could actually have trekkie friends my age if i was born during its peak.
>>205290 samefag but ai arts already takes everything from human art which could fall into the kitsch category for some. making kitsch art out of someone else's kitsch art.
>>205290 But say for example you have something incredibly stylized like picrel. How do you go about knowing whether or not it was produced through ai? There will be certain features that aren't present, and it wouldn't be obvious if it were a mistake or deliberate because it has been created with such stylization. If I had seen this without knowing it was done through ai, I definitely would think a human had made it.
>>205304 For me kitsch is associated with newrich gypsy enteriors, it's always insanely eclectic, they're in love with greek statues and columns and animal prints, and it's usually present ALL AT ONCE
>>205320 it was neat that they actually posted spooky pictures instead of gore and zoomie mandela catalogue shit like on 4chan's /x/. Those underwater pictures scare the living fuck out of me, i am surprised that there isnt an horro game that explores that phobia yet.
>>205318 an anon posted this pictyre connected to a really sad post on vent, I didn't read the post just looked at the picture and I was like, "Damn that looks comfty" then I deleted it and read the post feeling bad. Still looks comfortable
>>205322 >mandela Catalouge I got into that and holy shit did it have me scared. I watched Wendigoon's first video and now i get why s like him so much, plus it's creepy as hell.,
>>205327 Seriously. I get that everyone has different tastes, but it'd be nice to know why someone thinks something is ugly besides saying that 'it's ugly'.
>>205335 some weirdo tried to post an AI picture of some scrote eating a spam sandwitch,the hands were so fucked up and then tried to pretend it wasn't ai. I'm not retarded. I made two, one so you can see the OG ai image the others were I point out the flaws of the AI generation. Even when it gets close it's not that close. I say this as someone who likes ai
>>205341 In what way? I know most digital programs don't look like that, but what if you didn't know the medium beforehand? Just looking at it straightforward without any prior knowledge on its background, how would you tell it's ai?
>>205363 A human can make creepy/uncanny artwork. You don't even need to be an experienced artist to do so, a novice with no experience doing realism would generally fuck up the proportions of a human face big time.
I love slathering myself in shea coco butter lotion and then lathering shea coco oil on top. I’m all moisturized and shiny. (I’m diabetic so I have dry skin normally kek) (Also u didn’t see my mistake)
>>205334 >but it'd be nice to know why someone thinks something is ugly besides saying that 'it's ugly'. blatantly bad anatomy and spaghetti limbs (or sometimes even no limbs) and scary faces makes AI ugly to me imo
>>205368 >a novice with no experience doing realism would generally fuck up the proportions of a human face big time. That'll give you ugly and uncanny art in no time. Besides, everything you've mentioned so far has been subjective.
I didn't mind it before, but I kind of hate when people start spamming threads because it just buries and disrupts actual conversations and creates infighting
>>205390 >how do you tell ugly ai art from ugly real art >i look at it and know it's real ??? The point is how can you tell without knowing whether or not it's ai? Both human made and ai made art can be ugly
>>205409 "Art", capital "A" art, will never be made by AIs. But much commercial art will be made by AIs. Hopefully they unfuck the situation with copyright because fuck robots in general but I'm not too hopeful that it wouldn't be without loopholes.
>>205417 I'm not sure how you do developer tools on phones, anon, but there is probably a way and it should work. If you are using a VPN turn it off. Most phones seem to be able to use the regular site.
>>205331 nta but it is cringe yet it still scared the shit out of me, not the story itself but those weird distorted faces. that's always been a huge fear of mine but im not sure why
>>205424 it is, he's posting shit from /ic/ and trying to ''own'' artists while being a third worlder who cant even english. There has been an infestation of those on /ic/ for half a year just trying to bait and gloating about ''stealing'' jobs from artists.
>>205430 > don't have any cell data either. oh that's your problem, cell data is working for most. US s anyway. some others having troubles from what i hear.
>>205431 Ty nony. I don’t not believe women would get into ai art because it is interesting but there are some annoying as fuck men who love it because they can’t make shit themselves
>>205431 Lol I won't waste my breath then. I really don't care if an AI can make beautiful or soulful art. The art is nothing, it's just the metric we use to know whether the program is working and the AI is learning as it's supposed to.
>>205451 beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that but I will never completely understand the intense desire for a "small" face some people have. In my opinion the more defined the jaw and cheekbones the better. Give me a big ol' moonface even, I love it. Like I see the beauty of a little jaw sometimes, it's not ugly it kinda cute, but actually thinking it's so superior aesthetically that you get surgery or shrink you muscles? I can't even.
>>205463 i understand, but when i see an older person (not "old" necessarily, but past the age where people usually look like that) dressed eccentrically, i honestly really respect it. life is short, i think you should dress however you'd like. but if you're uncomfortable doing so, i get that too
>>205469 whenever im washing my face and close my eyes i convince myself that this bitch is behind me and then i open my eyes too soon and get soap in them smh
In January 2006 in New York, the patient of a well-known psychiatrist draws the face of a man that has been repeatedly appearing in her dreams. In more than one occasion that man has given her advice on her private life. The woman swears she has never met the man in her life.
That portrait lies forgotten on the psychiatrist's desk for a few days until one day another patient recognizes that face and says that the man has often visited him in his dreams. He also claims he has never seen that man in his waking life.
The psychiatrist decides to send the portrait to some of his colleagues that have patients with recurrent dreams. Within a few months, four patients recognize the man as a frequent presence in their own dreams. All the patients refer to him as THIS MAN.
From January 2006 until today, at least 2000 people have claimed they have seen this man in their dreams, in many cities all over the world: Los Angeles, Berlin, Sao Paulo, Tehran, Beijing, Rome, Barcelona, Stockholm, Paris, New Dehli, Moskow etc.
At the moment there is no ascertained relation or common trait among the people that have dreamed of seeing this man. Moreover, no living man has ever been recognized as resembling the man of the portrait by the people who have seen this man in their dreams.
The aim of this website is: - to help those who have seen this man in their dreams and to foster communication among them; - to understand who this man is and why he appears in an apparently pattern-less array of situations in the dreams of such diverse human subjects.
>>205470 Some idols had such a beautiful bone structure before but shaved it off and it's sad. One example is Ningning from Aespa, she is still pretty but looks more generic now. I don't understand the small face hype either, some idols with small faces look like they have microcephaly-
>>205471 >>205468 >>205465 emo is a fashion for teens n0nnies. It looks really cringy on adults, its not like goth who is more mature. I am mostly sad that i missed out on cool alt fashion as a teen because my generation is so damn boring and has no personality.
>>205484 Caring about cringe is cringe. >because my generation is so damn boring and has no personality. Because they care about being cringe. "I want do what I want to because others may find it cringe!" what a way to live life.
>>205487 it is cringy to dress as emo as an adult, creepy, even. Also, most of the fun was the culture and being edgy teens and posting demon god ocs on deviantart and thats dead, i really hate zoomies trying to larp as emos.
>>205491 What was his name? I don't remember that being part of the backstory. I do remember that the face was made with one of those face generator programs or whatever
>>205495 I don't get people like you, seems like such a boring way to live. You want to dress a certain way but won't because muh cringe. >thats dead And it's dead because of cringe culture, of course your generation is boring because they all think like you
>>205502 >>205508 its cringe because the culture is dead and all the zoomies larping as rawrxD emos are trying to reclaim their youth after they wasted it being political puppets. I dont even know where to buy emo clothes because, again, its fucking dead. And what the fuck am i supposed to do? go to the supermarket in my avril lavigne misa amane cosplay? emo is something that is dead and should stay dead, just as a reminder of how things used to be more interesting and teens were allowed to have fun and have a personality before corporations absolutely destroyed the internet and youth. It just look pedophilic and weird to dress as an emo now
>>205510 so what? and why are you blaimng teens for corporations? let people have fun. sorry you didn't fulfill your emo fantasy but let others enjoy it.
>>205508 She's only limiting herself anyway. She wants to dress that way but won't because it's cringe, she's the only one stopping herself from enjoying something she wants to do. >>205510 Excuses. Just relax and have fun in life. Or keep complaining, your choice. I feel like if I took everything as seriously as you do I'd be dead inside.
>>205511 >>205512 >>205514 its weird to larp as a teen as an adult, its like weird ageplay shit. I have never met a single normal person thats not a gendie or a groomer that still dresses emo. I have no problem with punks/goths/lolitas, but emos is something that should stay dead, it was a product of its time adn it should stay that way.
>>205510 What is up with women wanting to dress in alt fashion or dye their hair but are simultaneously against it because “ waaah waaah gendies” Barely anyone will think your are pedo at most maybe a little weird because you’re going against the grain
>>205530 You can just randomly develop lactose intolerance >>205534 True. Had non-milk ice cream cake this summer it was really good, too good, I ate too much >>205535 You're pretty then!
>>205529 >>205533 dressing up in teen fashion to reclaim your youth is fucking lame. Its funny how none of you dress emo, its only the pedos and gendies that do it nowadays. Its like egirl fashion, which is kinda like emo but it lacks the culture and what made it interesting and is only used as fap bait by pickmes.
watching steven segal movies to laugh at how lazy he is and holy shit this shot is killing me. he poses like this for like 30 seconds straight immediately after killing a man with a katana
>>205544 my dad loved stevel segal and I've seen way too many of his movies because of that. I think it was male ponytail solidarity or something. should I watch them for nostalgia? I remember a scene where segal's character is unconscious/injured and he wakes up to a native american woman chewing up food and spitting it into his mouth like a baby bird
>>205542 You make no sense, I don't get you. You're complaining about strangers dressing a way in which you yourself want to and the only reason you won't is because you're an adult. I don't think you're going to live much of a happy or fun life like this. No wonder why so many complain about aging and adulthood when they view it the way you do.
>>205549 oh you should definitely rewatch them, they're so entertaining (for the wrong reasons, but still) and im sure nostalgia would add to the experience too
>>205551 do you dress remotely alt or are you just being pedantic? larping as an emo isnt the same, that's my point. Saying rawrxD ironically now and just dressing u`p is lame, i wanto to go to the mall or listen to avril lavign and post on deviantart. Its not the same and it just speak of how sad zoomer teenagehood was. >>205552 it is >>205555 i dont even use the gossip boards
>>205557 If you want to do it then just do it. Or you can continue complaining here, that sounds less fun and happy to me personally though. You're only stopping yourself from having fun. It's good to not take life so seriously.
>>205558 >>205559 kek, you guys are pedantic. Its not the fucking same because the culture shifted, DA is literally dead otuside of gross fetish art, malls are dead also, even if i were like ''i want to rawr xD and hugz n kisses >w>'' there are no shops that sell that kind of clothes anymore and i dont want to wear used clothes from teens.
>>205567 Fr. I love malls now more than ever because they're dead. Less annoying people around. The ones near me are all pretty peaceful now, mainly friendly old people.
