Making lots of art in a hazy rage because I'm sick of pretending to be cordial in science right now as the world gets sick all around me. I could expend a lot of social energy to ingratiate myself with other scientists, but a lot of them are being cool and polite about genAI, so I don't wanna.

New guy occasionally tries to ingratiate rather than to annoy. I think he finds it more effective, but less interesting.

In short, I liked her art from the begginning. Initially AND ONLY first couple of comments I left under her art I really wanted ingratiate myself with her to maybe get more popular, but then I genuinely started liking her as an artist and a person. My comments were GENUINE! I TRULY VALUE HER.
