My number one issue with all sights is that there is not enough parking. Big Ben? Where do I park? Pyramids? Parking. Statue of liberty? Come in parking! The first and usually only thing I think about is parking. If I can't park my car and walk less than 100m to the thing I want to see, what's the point?

/s because some people still won't see the sarcasm of this or the post. A lot of people do think that way

I'm gonna circle the walmart parking lot for 15 minutes looking for the closest spot to park to save 30 seconds of walking.

like a decade ago my local walmart started closing one set of doors at ~10pm, and TO THIS DAY there is ALWAYS parking available in front of those doors. it doesn’t matter if you show up at noon, fuckers still avoid that entrance like they’re about to spend 10 hours in walmart. i’ll never understand the human mind.

A brutal wake up call for me was finding that the shit I'd said or heard from others in sarcasm is unironically some folks' belief. They don't realise how much everyone around them suffers thanks to their actual belief in misogyny/misandry/fascism being necessary, climate change being a myth, surveillance being security, one's existence being sinful, education being bad etc.

Where's Robert Moses when you need him to build an expressway to the future parking garage on Liberty Island 😫

Fucking AI slop. Hate this shit.

You're right, they should have rented the Eiffel Tower and built a temporary car storage facility to take this photograph.

Back in my day we’d use gimp or photoshop to do clever editing by hand.

Depriving honest work from all the people who would be involved in creating a scene with props and practical effects?

[–] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 7 points 5 hours ago

Folks still do that.

I mean, the moon landing would have been fake, were it not for Stanley Kubrick demanding to shoot on-scene and in-camera.

Straw man fallacy. AI media is sensorially gross. The other media don’t necessarily look gross, but if they do look gross then it’s either because the artist intended for it to look gross or because capitalism curtailed the artist’s ability to achieve their vision.

Satire, 100%

If it's not - don't tell me, I'm clinging to sanity by a thread already
