i got tired of seeing the meme with the ai-art otter (i don't even remember what the meme was about) so i quickly sketched an otter holding a sign. i didn't use the original for reference, so the sign proportion is totally different. also i don't often draw otters so this might not look very otterlike. also it's grumpy

feel free to use it however you like

@bunnyhero i think it looks perfectly otterlike!
@holly @bunnyhero yes, it's a perfect otternative
@bunnyhero Looks like an otter to me. I can't draw a stick.
@bunnyhero
Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️ I loathe that ai otter so much :(
@bunnyhero you're doing God's work
@bunnyhero wait oh my god you should add it to framameme https://framamemes.org/

@nev oh cool site! but i couldn't figure out how to submit, or if they even take submissions
@bunnyhero grumpy otter gonna fuck some shit up.
@bunnyhero Thanks for the sketch!
@bunnyhero It was incredibly annoying that the AI version was from Extinction Rebellion, resulting in the irony of climate activists using a carbon intensive slop machine
@brownpau @bunnyhero a long time ago I saw someone comment that Extinction Rebellion was so inept and counterproductive that they must surely be a false flag operation, and I've so far not seen cause to doubt that
@nev @brownpau @bunnyhero From what I understand, since they are a very loose collection of local chapters across the globe with some small amount of common branding, the local chapters can be VASTLY different in their values and operation methods. Like someone told me not to trust the UK chapters, but our local Finnish chapter seems fairly good at reaching centre left groups (like the boyscouts?) for protests, and the protests are almost always sit ins.
@bunnyhero Adding some Very Important Information for the furthering of Each And Everyone’s Better-, Entertain-, And Enlightenment: “grumpy otter” is “butter utter” in Swedish—a fact that pleases me no end.
@bunnyhero
(Especially as, peculiarly, “utter butter”, on the other hand, could well be “ABSOLUT SMÖR” in that same language of VODKEA. (Whereas, of course, “utter ‘butter’” is “säga ‘smör’ [or, possibly, “‘butter’”]” (even though, what you *used* to say in Swedish was “omelett” (which did, in that context (only), mean “cheese”)).))

@bunnyhero

We all loathe that AI shite otter,
That prompt-generated slop rotter,
But this one is real,
You can tell by the feel,
And a genuine otter's much hotter

@bunnyhero I am absolutely turning this into a “thanks I hate it” meme. Thank you. 🙇
@bunnyhero the grumpiness is perfect, ty

@bunnyhero Your grump otter is wonderful.
@bunnyhero It's otterly perfect. You otter do more like it.
@bunnyhero art made by humans totally rocks!

@bunnyhero I'm pretty sure I wouldn't like the otter one...

That is all, you may all resume your activities now...

@bunnyhero That's otterlike and even otters would be grumpy after seeing generative AI.
@bunnyhero you are a hero indeed - thanks a lot!!!
@bunnyhero thank you! looks great :-)
@bunnyhero I've not seen memes with otters but then again I tend to overlook / skip memes. But I like this one! Grumpy otter!
@bunnyhero rip your notifications but thanks for this delightfull internet moment
@bunnyhero to me, it looks like a river otter (rather than a sea otter), which is perfect because they are known to sometimes be quite cranky
@bunnyhero that is quite good! The only thing I'd change from looking at a few reference photos is the arm should be about as long as the next but that's just me being silly (clearly I should draw my own otter). This is a glorious otter.
