Studio ghibli produced some of the profoundly touching movies ever made. Them butchering it like this with AI is just fucking stupid.

This is a good time to rewatch Porco Rosso.

I love Porco Rosso. The theme of the golden age of aviation is something I love. Barely 10 years ago I wrote what would be my first novella in a setting that would be a dieselpunk fantasy that would invoke that era and a fantasy ww2 where Nazi like enemies are fought.

But the come back of Nazis in the real world blasted my creativity. I could no longer make what seemed to me a distant era separate from what is happening now. The result is my own planned fantasy universe that had been building in my mind for years was just crushed.

Remember that writing is also for processing (emotionally) the shit that is going on.

I know it is your work and you do with it what you want.

Even then I want to suggest just to write your voice against what is happening today in whatever way you want.

It may be in the style you imagined or you may just shelve this particular style for a while.

But writers are always needed to shout the voice of those who "can't do so by themselves"
