   Sometimes, people still surprise me and that's pleasant.

   Had an interaction with an AI art hater who posted that it has no emotion and it's worthless.

   To which we had a thorough discussion regarding my own emotions and how I implement those emotions into my AI art prompts and that it's a bad thing to dismiss people's emotions and sense of creativity.

   Instead of calling me a thief and blocking me, he explained that he'd rather see my stick figures, personally, and even moreso that he admitted he doesn't have the right to tell anyone what *art* is. It's just his personal preference.

   I did not expect this to happen and fully expected to be blocked. A bit of faith in humanity restored with that interaction.😌

   @breadandcircuses Skeptical about the number of climate offsets that are are worthless.

   To be honest, I think they're all worthless.

   We need to decarbonize by 90% in a decade. Some plan that you can pay to emit CO2 as long as you have some other activity that supposedly consumes it, seems like an obvious loser to me.
