The image is of a four panel comic.
In panel one, we see a crow’s face. It says, “I AM DEATH’S MESSENGER”.
In panel two, we see the same crow’s face. It continues, “YOUR TIME IS NEAR”.
In panel four, we see the crow awkwardly hopping away from a stick figure.
In panel five, we see the grim reaper with the crow perched on his hand. The grim reaper says, “So you should probably fly away dramatically instead.”

We created gyms because modern day work no
longer required physical activity. Without exercise,
our muscles atrophy.
I predict we'll need gyms for our brains too, once Al
starts doing our knowledge work.

Yeah, I haven't ever relied on an algorithm to determine my taste. Fuck that. Fuck Spotify. Fuck Claude. You want to broaden your musical horizons? Read a music magazine, go to a record store, talk to a human being whose taste may (or, here's a shock, may not!) align with yours. JFC, it's simple.

What gets me about this sort of nonsense is that “ordinary people” - in the sense of not having lots of wealth and formal training- make up the majority of artists of all types.
Threads idiot: Unpopular opinion: Most people don't hate Al content. They hate that ordinary people can now create without their permission.
