Insidious covert spread of Poptimism made everyone think overcaptilized bullshit made without personality is equivalent to actual good art. If you have the guts to actually have discerning taste, then the machine can never reproduce what is valuable to you about art.

Garffeld
Three panel comic of an homage to the first Garfield strip, but Jon is a monk and Garfield is a medieval rendering of a cat. In the first panel, Jon says, “HWÆT, LAM JON ARBUCKLE. I AM A MONK, AND THIS MY CATTE, GARFFELD.” In the second panel, Garffeld is thinking, “ HWÆT, I AM GARFFELD. I AM A CATTE, AND THIS IS MY MONK, JON.” In the last panel, Jon says, “OUR ONLY THOUGHT IS TO GLORIFY GOD.” Garffeld thinks, “FEDE ME.”

Orolando @orolando.bsky.social · 09/02/2025
Civ 7 is really, truly good. Feels like a complete return to form after the disappointment that was 6- a Civ 5 "2". I'll need some more time with it to really determine how good it is, but after 1 full game and 2 partial games, I'm impressed.
