PS. I did not generate this image myself, I saw it and found it comically badly done.

I hate that fucking cat.

I post so much, I see it often because I don't actively check images apart from squinting at them, and using reverse image look up to check dates - the latter is useless for new memes. I literally learned how to check with zerogpt like a week ago.

I get the sentiment of not wanting AI, honestly. Finding out something is fake after the fact sucks, though and diminishes it. Sometimes a post is still funny after the fact.

It's wild what people are actively faking with AI.

    I am all for calling out AI, but for whatever reason, the cats really bother me. To be clear, I have nothing against the funhole art style or anything. But something about the cats in particular is just frustrating, and I can't put my finger on what my problem is with it. I genuinely don't understand my own contradiction here.

    I'm also on the same page as you. Why the cat? I think for me it's maybe the way he's illustrated (unlike for you). I realize it's a contradiction, but whatever.

    Rude. I'm never going to draw again.

    I get why someone may dislike that art style. It's intentionally a bit unsettling, so I understand that someone may not be able to appreciate it. But no, not liking a particular art style doesn't make it a contradiction.

    The cat would be less annoying if the image wasn't so fucking huge.

    And plastered absolutely everywhere, even on posts where it isn't obvious it's AI. Saw one where I decided to do a reverse image search and saw results from 2018.

    If it was @dontbelievethis@sh.itjust.works who commented the cat for a non-AI image, they’ve admitted they were just commenting it randomly on purpose as bait here

    Making your way in the world today takes everything you've got. Taking a break from all your worries, sure would help a lot.

    Wouldn't you like to get away?

    Sometimes you want to go

    Where everybody knows your name, and they're always glad you came. You wanna be where you can see, our troubles are all the same You wanna be where everybody knows Your name.
