It’s being pushed EVERYWHERE. I look at my emails and I get a pop up saying to summarize it with AI. Even restaurants that used real pictures before replaced them with AI. Go on any social media and all the ads are AI. I’m just so fucking tired of it.20 Aug 2026 16:23 +0000at://did:plc:bstxvlyxevoxangwrhbbotfe/app.bsky.feed.post/3mtjnrkzog227https://bsky.app/profile/theinnerobserver.bsky.social/post/3mtek26qxbk2hHappy Black Cat Appreciation Day! 🐈‍⬛️🐾 "Strawberry Daydream" was painted using #gouache on paper.

Life is series of many different events that lead us to where we are today. I find when I look back at old photos, I can see where the light leaves my eyes.
