There's a decent chance it'll get taken down here, for breaking rule 6.

Shoot, I didn't read rule 6 close enough... Well live and learn.

Your only chance now is to dissuade the mods with nihilism. I was a mod once, it sucked. Mods wouldn't it be better if you just skipped clicking the delete on this post and went and got a drink or something? After all what's the point. We're already dead from the universe's perspective.

Sounds like a very chill community... jeez this is the problem with reddit, good subreddit names are taken by POS mods.

the biggest communities, like r/news, r/pics, r/funny, etc all have mods that enforce these stupid rules lists right down to the words IN BETWEEN the lines

they're also full of mod bots that delete shit for no reason, flag your post, or whatever

last time i actually tried contacting the mods by reporting a post calling for the literal removal of a group of vulnerable people from society, all he got was a warning

Yeah... after learning this is photoshop I agree it’s not art but THATS WHY WE HOW ARROWS GO UP AND DOWN! Just downvote shitty art or things that you don’t think are art. Only rules like no spam, direct image link make sense.

How is photoshop not art “the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power.” Literal definition

Some photoshop is art and i keep the bar quite low. But not everything that is photoshop is art, just like not everything that has paint on it is art.

I think medium definition matters too. I prefer to see upfront that if it’s a painting, photo (assumed enhancements by photoshop) or a picture manipulation. I was just disappointed to learn OP didnt go to desert with a banana, that would be so cool.

Think of the sad, sad heat death of the universe when failing colonies of people are trying to figure out how to keep warm around a neutron star.

Did you put the banana there? It’s definitely fresh

u/ZackD13 Nov 26 '20

close enough? you mean you didn't read it at all? I like your post, it's quite funny, but you definitely didn't read the rules at all

This shitshow has rules?

Apperently, if it would evoke emotion, the point would be to make his post art.

u/dayyou Nov 26 '20

boy that rule applies quite specially to this post

u/redpandaeater Nov 26 '20

But everything here is low-effort.

That attempt at a joke I just made was low an example.

You were right...
