Personally I'd argue that they're fine for someone that wants to go to a school to learn how to do better!

Wooooooooosh

Its a joke buddy, I completely agree with your statement, is better than I can do

They're really not that bad though? Not very "artistic", but so far as pictures of buildings go they're not exactly terrible.

Not exactly fine art material, and obviously he was still an awful evil person, but terrible? If your friend painted those you'd be gassing them up.

That's like collecting Nazi paraphernalia

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's fine if you collect other belligerents as well!

The only Nazi paraphernalia I collect is scalps.

Wow, do you think maybe he’s not 100% honest?

I like how they said that they were gonna "release" some more info in a doomed attempt to keep people calm but couldn't even manage that. I betcha Trump is already on the golf course this late on a Friday.

Years ago (way before AI fakes) I saw a video of him drawing something. He boasted how great he was at it and it was 1-3rd grade quality.
