HiisikoloartNote to anyone who buys art from an artist: DO NOT EVER RUN THE ART THROUGH AN AI-PROGRAM! It will change details and destroy the art AND feeds that art into the program to be stolen over and over again!
To do this is to allow the theft of the artist's work.
Sincerely: Artist whose map just got absolutely ruined by AI "filter" and is shared in instagram with all the million mistakes that makes my skills look absolute shit. Plus the theft thing.
I am so so sad.

100-130 ships pass the Strait daily.
Trump just gave Iran an extra $100M-$130M per day.
Masterful gambit, sir.
Impeach and remove this fascist—NOW.
