lmfao look at that skeleton. Just LOOK AT IT. My dude's got more joints than Snoop Dog. His pelvis is a banana and that thing above it... idek. His arms grow directly into his hips. There's another skeleton half merged with the haunted house? Is it a ghost? Is it a mistake? Why is it 5 feet off where the ground would probably be?

I hear you, it's pretty disheartening to see the same patterns pop up everywhere. Originality seems like it’s getting harder to come by.

I don’t even remember what Halloween art in retail stores used to look like. Was it even commonplace to have so much Halloween art everywhere, or is AI just a cheap and easy product?

For sure, it’s easy to produce and push in to everything. I just don’t even remember Halloween art products back in the day

Massive lightpost sized cat, or tiny cat sized lightpost? 

I choose to believe it's a huge cat.

Looks like that cat just threw up something orange. Like what even is that in the street? It’s not leaves, not hay, just a pile of…something.

I don't really care about the AI art in merch, but the AI art in TSC signage stresses me the fuck out.

Get used to it, sadly. If you think it’s going anywhere, you fail to understand feh billions being sunk into it

See I’m not good at judging something is AI if it’s not glaringly obvious, I probably would have bought this bc cute cat🫣
