First off, one complaint about Procreate; I wish the last brush selected wasn't a global thing but a document thing so I could figure out which goddamned brush I'd used for something in the past. Oh well...

Haven't done a Harlon in a long while. But an article today about how Zuckerburg, one of the worst humans in charge of anything at this particular point of history has decided that all posts made to "Meta" sites belong to Meta so that he can shovel everything we've shard into his giant AI monstrosity just really got to me. My audience is already tiny. Very tiny. And now he's saying that any time I reached out, tried to connect with one of my fellow human beings, that reach is just food for his big ol' AI which will then spew out content that takes the place of the things I was making in the first place. So now I'll have no audience but my art will be part of an amalgam that does. Gee, thanks. Tell me again why AI is such a great idea? It makes me equal parts angry and depressed and there's SHIT I can do about it. Except keep on keeping on, doing it for me, hearing the echoes diminish until I'm done. I guess. This is the most depressing Harlon ever but hey, I discovered and even more depressing one on my iPad that I never finished. So there's that. Fuck the Zuck. And the Beez. And most of all, the Musk.
