I commissioned some Midjourney art on Fiverr of me, my sister, and our dog, hoping to give it to my sister for Christmas. The results were not quite what I expected. 😬😬😬

At 53, Cervantes was in prison - and not for the first time. Most of his adult life had been a losing struggle against debt and misfortune. There, in prison he decided to write a book, and that book turned out to be one of the greatest ever written: Don Quixote.

Oprah once asked Bono to explain the difference between the American and the Irish mindset. Bono responded with a story of a man walking with his son and pointing out a big mansion on a hill. In America, the father tells his son: “One day, I will have a mansion like this man.”…

The more I learn about the aimless, consumptive lives of the children or the rich, the less I’m convinced that having more will improve our experience of what we have.

seriously doubt it. great art, or even not-great art, springs out of an individual's personality/history--(Klimt, Hopper, Vermeer, Rothko, Winslow etc.)--it's of interest for its singularity. AI is a machine that can mimic but has no emotional history or singularity.

Why exactly is Dune so hard for people to understand? Is it something they miss about the way stories basically work? The people who read Dune and see Paul as the protagonist do not "want to follow the fictional space king". They are not saying "Holy war, fuck yeah". Here's…
