Can’t wait until I have enough free time to start making art for my personal enjoyment again. It’s been far too long 🫠

GenAI steals from real artists and spits out soulless slop. Any work from a developing artist will always be better than AI 🪶

Am I a good artist? Not really but I’ve improved a lot over time. I’ve still got a lot to learn, and someday I’ll get where I want to be. Art is more than lines on a page, more than values and data. Art is an expression of the human experience.
BillyTimDaff (@billytimdaff.bsky.social)
A few years ago, I frequently used GenAI to create images (for personal use) because I wasn’t confident in my artistic skills and felt I wasn’t good enough to create my own images. Now, I’m passionately anti-GenAI, and I have been working hard to improve and develop my artistic skills.

Copyright laws should NOT include an exemption for AI companies who are actively stealing from and profiting from the works of our incredible Aussie creatives - works we have put our souls into. They can follow copyright laws and pay creatives or create their own works like the rest of us

Was painting this little cloud thing for my art class and nothing was clicking. After working on this tiny thing for two hours, I may have torn it up and cried. I changed medium and tore it up again. Third try, I finally got something fine-ish! Sometimes, the process just doesn’t process

If America, a global superpower, can fall into the hands of a dictator, it can happen to any of us. Fellow outsiders, if you are able to vote, you must do your part in protecting your rights in your country. Do your research! Vote mindfully! If you have the right to vote, use it.
BillyTimDaff (@billytimdaff.bsky.social)
Good leaders do not make voting more difficult for their people. Cowards obstruct democracy. To my fellow outsiders, this is why we must make our voices heard and use our vote to protect our rights. We cannot trust politicians.

Hey, new Australian voters, A reminder that the Senate can block legislation from the House of Representatives. They can block a lot of political BS from the major parties. If they block legislation enough times, the PM can dissolve Parliament and call another election. Think about your vote 🗳️

When you’re incredibly inspired to create a piece of art and know the inspiration/motivation will only last so long, but are just too busy to do it 🥲 I’ve been playing so much Don’t Starve (pocket edition) lately, and the urge to try and make some Don’t Starve Together fan art is strong

I am, of course, grateful I can say this in a light-hearted way - wow, catching a bug really makes you appreciate the times where you aren’t sick ☠️. You really take for granted being able to sing or breathe through your nose until you catch a dang cold

Not sure who needs to hear this, but if you’re not writing a book with the hope of being published, that doesn’t make you less of a writer than someone working towards being published. Writing is about enjoyment and expressing your creativity, not solely fame and profit. Write what brings you joy 🪶

trump was asked why he pardoned January 6th attackers who committed violence against cops, and he said they'd already spent years in jail and "murderers don't even go to jail in this country." Sometimes, that's true.

Fellow non-Americans, your vote counts more than ever. MAGA influence will not be contained in America. Do your research, engage in discussions (if you’re safe to do so), and remember that your vote is yours alone. Voting is not just a right, it is a responsibility. Stay safe everyone 🪶

I wonder if any singular person has attended enough communions to have consumed the average number of calories in an adult man and drank the average volume of blood in an adult man? If bread = flesh and wine = blood. I don’t want to calculate this
BillyTimDaff (@billytimdaff.bsky.social)
Was just thinking, Communions in Christianity have occurred for hundreds of years, eating the body and drinking the blood of Christ. Over hundreds of years, humans must have consumed enough bread and wine to consume multiple whole Jesuses, right?
