Transcription:

A picture of a skinny female orc with the side of her head shaved. She wears an armless red dress and a black shawl, as well as matching red bracelets and a black choker with a gold heart at the front.

At the top of the image is the text “You may not like it, but this is what” in large bubble font

At the bottom of the image is a screenshot from the new D&D changelog, reading “• Orcs no longer have the Powerful Build feature.”

And below that, the text “Peak 2024 D&D orc performance looks like” continues the bubble font from the top.

    If someone goes into an art museum and gets inspired by an Emily Carr painting so much that they go home and paint their own back yard in her style, if they dont think to credit her when they show their friends their painting, is that stealing from Emily Carr? Howabout if they were instead inspired by the entire museum, and used bits amd pieces of art styles from so many different art pieces to the point they dont know which parts of their own painting to credit to which artist? Is that more theft than the Emily Carr example? Or Less?

      If a person goes into an art museum, samples 1000 Emily Carr paintings, and makes an automated Emily Carr painting generator to sell en masse without her permission and without giving them any credit, then that person owes Emily Carr a lot of fucking money.

      Your attempts to reduce or boil down an already simple issue is telling of your intentions.

        Lmao my intentions are you call out your braindead hypocrisy, and man are you doing some gymnastics to get around that. It’s telling on your end with how you keep bringing up money though that you think the only reason to make art is to make money. I’m bored now though, so enjoy the block list
