Two issues I ran into were I like midjourney for grimdark artwork, but it shies away from certain things like blood, and getting chatgpt to generate poetry/lyrics with dark motifs.

Does anyone else think a lot about the incredible irony of western freedom-loving democracies being fine and dandy with the fact that nearly 100% of workplaces are top-down dictatorships? Even when you’re “given” freedom to act independently, it’s always predicated upon your decisions and actions aligning with the wishes of your superiors. The second that isn’t the case, you get your marching orders, and you can either comply or fuck off.

It would be one thing if employment were “optional” to some degree, or there were always more jobs than people to do them, but so many people are one missed paycheck or medical emergency away from homelessness, you basically have no choice but to grin and bear it.
