mmm okay ramble on here since i cant post it on our main but like. i love system hcs or ocs but i dislike a lot of characters that are plural or plural based. and today the one im annoyed about again is killer sans, since ive seen a lot of posts about him as a system again recently.

now i love this IN CONCEPT!!! but in execution i have 2 main issues. 1, its usually treated as a offhanded thing,,, it doesnt have to be central to the story but i see ppl bring it up n say he is one once and then never touch or have it affect his character in any way. and 2 is its the fucking evil alter thing again. the way most of the time it gets split up is sans, killer, extra violent killer, mindless violence stabber (stage 1-4) and i just. it makes me feel weird. ive seen ONE TIME when someone actually gave each 'stage' or alter different traits and i love it!!! do that!!!!!! but when its just the fucking "ohhhh this stage is evil and extra murderous" just. just dont. you dont have to treat them all like seperate ppl, not all systems are n not all alters are entirely formed but like. its the fact that its ONLY based on the murderousness. its not that an alter fronting only for one thing is not possible, its pretty common from my knowledge at least to have alters that front for specific jobs but. when the thing is murder its just doing the evil split personality thing again :/

explore it to some extent if ur gonna make a character plural!!! do stuff with it!!! n in this case specifically,,, put some work into it so its not just the evil alters stereotype!!! n if u dont wanna do that maybe just,,, dont make him plural. its not like its properly canon anyways

Not telling y'all that you should be able to identify AI slop (but it is a valuable skill, you totes should), but if you're to be accusing artists of being AI left and right at least go and do your homework, or at least do the bare minimum and use AI identification tools like Hive Moderation, so you 1- don't ruin someone's lifehood 2- don't make a clown out of yourself maybe

Like, i get it, AI slop and "AI artists" pretending to be genuine is getting harder and harder to identify, but just accusing someone out of the blue and calling it a day doesn't make it any better.

The AI clowns shifted to styles that have less "tells" and the AI arts are becoming better. Yeah, it sucks ass.

They're also integrating them with memes, so you chuckle and share, like those knights with pink backgrounds, some cool frog and a funny one liner, so you get used to their aesthetic.

This is an art from the new coming set Final Fantasy for MtG. This is someone on Reddit accusing someone of using AI. From what i can tell, and i fucking hate AI, there is NO AI used on this image.

As far as i can tell and as far as any tool i've used, the Artist didn't use AI. which leads to the next one:

they accused the artist of this one of using Ai. the name of this artist is Nestor Ossandon.

He as already been FALSELY ACCUSED of using AI, because he drew a HAND THAT LOOKED A LITTLE WEIRD, which caused a statement from D&D Beyond, confirming that no AI has been used.

Not to repeat mysef, they're accusing the art above, that is by Nestor, to have used Ai.

REAL artists are not machines. And just like the AI slop, we are not perfect and we make mistakes. The hands we draw have wonky fingers sometimes. The folds we draw are weird. But we are REAL. We are real people. And hey, some of our "mistakes" sometimes are CHOICES. Artistic choices are a thing yo.

If you're to accuse someone of using Ai, i know it's getting hard to identify. But come on. At least do your due diligence.

aaron bushnell knew exactly what he was doing. he states his intentions with total lucidity and sense of purpose. he knows what he's about to do is extreme--he says so. he speaks calmly, but he's clearly terrified. he takes a deep breath after pouring the accelerant over himself. he has to psyche himself up to light the flame. he struggles with the lighter. he says "free palestine" normally once before he starts to scream it. even through his agony he manages to say it one last time before he stops being able to speak at all. this is a man with total conviction. he wanted to help people, in any way possible. this action was a moral one, and any news outlet painting this as simply a mental health issue is a disservice to his memory. he knew what he was doing when he burned himself in uniform. he knew that there was a chance that sacrificing his own life could go on to save many others. this was the ultimate act of selflessness, and it should be treated as such. may he rest in peace.

thinking of how casually some ppl have slowly appeared and formed in our system versus that one guy fucking BURSTING through the front doors at full speed and then being extremely damn confused about whats happening-
