Omg mine too (too embarrassing to share).

I forgot how much more patient with pacing we all used to be back in the 00s. Just trusting that the video would go somewhere and there'd be a payoff.

Looking at some of the popular videos from back then, people these days would just scroll away because nothing hooked their attention quickly enough. Myself included. We've been trained to expect such quick payoff 😭.

Fuck, now I'ma have to go check on my old deviantart account.

It also depends on if you mean progressive relative to the times vs progressive on a direct platform comparison.

Even the most progressive historical presidents were disgustingly conservative compared to today, in many aspects.

Liberals are bad
But the conservatives are even worse and that says a lot.

God I wish JT actually followed through on his original campaign promise of election reform.

I actually kinda like that, because when the VAs are being cringy and shitty, I can't tell. All I get is the emotion of the delivery.

And in the past, very passionate or emotional performances were really cringy in English, so I would prefer listening to the original VAs for the delivery of emotion and tone, and read the subs for the meaning.

Did they die together?
This seems like a difficult tombstone to update later.

Or is it the same person but young/old?

It took me a long time to actually come up with a decent submission. I wasn't super clear what the theme is, and then once I came up with ideas I had a hard time actually generating what I wanted lol.

Here I was going for both the literal "upside down" aspect, and also Stranger Things "upside down" vibes.

I was really hoping that I could get the dude in the reflection to be removed or be different, but I couldn't seem to get both that and everything else I wanted in the same image

MS copilot designer prompta man in a hazmat suit falls through a puddle into a spooky alternate reality. in contrast, the reflection in the puddle shows a cheerful metropolis. the man is still falling through the air. the scene is very surreal.

So you're mad that he is taking a serious approach to your meme, but then you're bringing up data.

So is this a joke we shouldn't take seriously? Or should he be looking at the data?

With art, there is an inverse relationship between the number of people who will buy it and how much they'll pay for it. Art everyone wants is cheap, niche art is expensive.

If you go full send, you can charge more if the stars align and you can find a buyer.

I mean, it's pronounced like it's spelled except for the Z.

If you make a lamp out of communion wafers, is that a Fleshlight of Christ?
