This and the Morpheus soda one were funny.

But both would’ve been better if they were made by traditional photoshopping.

It’s really fascinating to me that this is what people make when the barrier to artistic creation disappears. It reminds me of some Youtuber books - they’re written by people with no literary skill or experience, but they produce them because they’ve gotten popular enough that the books are a profitable endeavor regardless of quality. Until you read a Youtuber book you don’t consciously realize what is necessary to write a book, because usually, mostly, only people who have that ineffable something do write novels. And here: you don’t realize what is needed to actually create art and not just images, until you see people with no artistic literacy or skill produce what they think of as art.

Visual art and literature are windows to the soul, and normally only a certain type of person goes through the effort to open that window for us. Here, and in Youtuber books, you can see inside a completely different type of person. And their soul looks like waifus and cowboys.

Rick Beato is a music YouTuber and overall insufferable dipshit and borderline child abuser. He started plugging a self-published “book” several years back that was supposed to be a self-contained songwriting and music theory course, but it’s mostly just gibberish and copy-pasted scale/chord finder/circle of fifths diagrams yanked from Google Image Search.

KDH, our beloved Irish drama llama, did a takedown video:

This is exactly what bothers me about these people and for me it’s especially exemplified by the one person who posted the astronaut lady with the dogs.

I posted this earlier with full metadata (sorry, I still have not gotten around to fix the poor dog’s legs 😅): Except for her companions, she is leaving everything behind…

There is just something about the image that make me want to hug her and her dogs, and assure her that everything will be all right.

Like what the fuck do you mean “There is something about the image…”

Mother fucker you supposedly created the image you’re supposed to know what it is “about the image”.

People have always been writing terrible fiction. Trawl the depths of AO3 and fanfiction.net, look at the great mound of rejected novels by aspiring authors. Artistic mediocrity is a part of the human condition the same as artistic excellence.

For the most part, the “ineffable something” required to write a good book is years of practice, an editor and the barrier to entry that is convincing a publisher to take you on.

“normal people can’t just do art”

reminds me of when my “friends” told me my abstract paintings aren’t art
