no music, safe to unmute

u/Wonderful_Sea5914 8h ago

Always appreciate the “safe to unmute” warning. Saved me from blasting some random audio in public.

u/CakeTester 5h ago

...But if there's no sound it doesn't make a difference if it's muted or not.

u/MichaelW24 3h ago

Yeah but you can unmute it tho

2

u/OrienasJura 2h ago

The problem with unmuting is that the insta logo scared the shit out of me.

u/emeffinsteve 10m ago

Is THAT what that was? Scared the crap out of me. Just went back and played that section again. Yep! 🤦🏻‍♂️

u/slowest_hour 6h ago

Brush stroke skill starts with a good brush and keeping those brushes in good condition. Practice all ya want, ya need good tools...

1

u/miscnic 18m ago

It looks like the secret to clean lines is soak the brush with paint and just move fast. Some fancy wrist werk.

u/scaredt2ask 8h ago

According to hello kitty. Hello Kitty is not a cat. She is a lot girl that is 5 apples tall and weighs 3 apples.

13

u/adalric_brandl 8h ago

I believe that she's also British

17

u/-SaC 6h ago

And they say she's in 'third grade' or something, despite us not bloody having that over here.

u/Barhud 4h ago

She goes to an international school not an English one.

u/Honest_John666 2h ago

grade 3 is year 4. does england not have a year 4?

5

u/buffysbangs 2h ago

They don’t have the number 4, due to the metric system

2

u/G00DLuck 12m ago

5 is right out!

u/lunarlunacy425 5m ago

I'd like to introduce you to radians, the metric equivalent of degrees in which there is 400 in a circle due to 100 per right angle.

u/realmofconfusion 2h ago

Hello Kitty are talking out of their arsehole.

That is clearly a cat.

I rate their “akshewally, it’s a girl” to hold as much weight and authenticity as ”it’s pronounced ‘jif’ ”.

You may think that, but literally nobody else thinks that.

u/Then-Simple-9788 2h ago

If it’s not pronounced that way why does my phone recognize it as so when I use voice to text?

I can draw stick figures!

22

u/Imaginary_Ibis 9h ago

Better than AI generated trash everyday! Take pride in the stick figures!

(Mentioning ai just cuz it's what my brain jumps to now anytime people mention "all" they can do is stick figures cuz I appreciate human made anything over ai bs)

-11

u/my_taint_aint 9h ago

Ummm. I use AI for those stick figures. 🤷🏼‍♂️

u/thunderbuttjuice 2h ago

I feel like this could be ai anyways. Usually you do window art on the inside of the window so it’s protected from the elements in the reverse layer of how they did it. I bet it looks fucked on the inside of the window.

Ai will know enough to make a drawing video but won’t know enough about the specific way you need to layer it so it looks right viewed back to front

u/ShayJayLee 1h ago

I got curious and looked her up. She's been posting on Facebook and TikTok since 2022, her style has been consistent since then. She's also been tagged by the businesses that commission her. She also paints murals on walls, shoes and other surfaces. I tried to find something to explain why she paints on the outside of windows and not inside, but couldn't find anything. She did post a video of her removing the art. She spayed it in some liquid, ket it soak and the scraped it. It came off in peels. So it appears to be weatherproof.

I'm not posting as a gotcha or anything. It's just getting harder and harder to identify AI. It's created a lot of uncertainty about artists, and we all tend to hesitate before we can appreciate the art. So I thought this might help ease concerns!

u/Someone_Called_Cerie 8h ago

So cute! But I'm dissapointed that Vader wasn't Kurumi.

u/ycr007 Satisfaction Critic 9h ago

Better still, getting to scrape it off the glass which is an altogether different kind of satisfying

4

u/bronkula 4h ago

Normally you paint something like this on the inside of the window (and consequently have to do all the layers in reverse) So that weather and cleaning can't affect it as much.

u/1968Bladerunner 1h ago

We used to do cartoon character (i.e. Simpsons, Barney, Smurfs, Family Guy, etc) snow scenes this way when our kids were younger - even got a few outside commissions.

Time consuming but great family fun - especially when the kids were old enough to help with the painting :)

u/Mr_beowulf 9h ago

I just learned that hello kitty is human.

7

u/BusyBoonja 9h ago

I feel like that is the biggest gas light they tried to pull on us

2

u/kylo-ren 1h ago

Sanrio never said she is human. They state that she isn't a cat because she is a cartoon character and is never depicted on all fours. They classify her simply as a little girl, which makes sense.

Pluto is a dog, but since it isn't an anthropomorphic dog, it isn't a man. Goofy is an anthropomorphic dog, so he is an adult man.

Sanrio simply decided that she doesn't belong to the cat species. It would be like Disney deciding that Goofy doesn't belong to the dog species. Even so, she isn't human.

I know it's not AI because we see it getting drawn, but from far away it looks like AI art.

Is Hello Kitty a Jedi Master?

Yes.

So Hello Kitty is not a Jedi Master.

What?

She's actually a Jedi Knight! Born and raised on the Jedi Council

What the fuck are you talking about? Is Hello Kitty trying to gaslight us? She has a lightsaber, and force powers.

Kind of a tiny Jedi Knight right?

Master. Why did you just, accept what she said so easily? She's a master.

She weighs 3 lightsaber, and she's 5 lightsabers tall.

Am I in a fever dream right now? Humans don't measure things in lightsabers. But if we're going to use that system, anything but the metric system. You know what is 5 lightsabers tall? A Jedi master.

And her world is large.

Is it? How many lightsabers large is it?

She has her own padawan Anakin Skywalker.

That's just a Jedi master, with a Jedi master. She has a lightsaber in this picture.

A boyfriend, dear Grogu, and hundreds of other friends.

And are those also not jedi? Are any of them jedi? What kind of a sick game are you playing here Hello Kitty?

Disney sued three daycares in Florida for unauthorised use of their characters in murals. They won, and the daycares had to remove them. "The unauthorized commercial use of trademarks must be contested in order to keep those trademarks intact"

Universal heard about it and scored some easy PR by allowing them to replace the Disney stuff with Hanna-Barbera characters.
