Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas

This will be my last ai that is made for a challenge specifically. It is ok, I made three for the challenge so it took 4.5 of my free daily credits. I will probably go back to making elephant pics, maybe not, who knows. I went for a walk today, so I will use a photography by me pic for my next post.

So being an athiest, christmas is not a big deal to me. I have lots of anxiety in buying gifts for others, so at least that part is over. My daughter had me write a note to include with my cash gift for my granddaughter. It is simple things like that I no longer think of automatically.

The weather was the nicest today, 55 degrees and mostly sunny. John and I went for a walk. We went to a nearby cemetery that has a hill with a faraway view and a patch of woods with trails through it. We found a few pumpkins someone had thrown into the woods. I found a single sock that had a hole in it. (I hope it was not a murder victims) John had put together a tripod type thing made out of thin branches that had fallen. I told him it looked very blair witch like…I could not find any feathers to add to it. John went and got some of the pumpkins and put the single sock hanging from the top. He then constructed a pentagram from more fallen sticks. (there were a lot off fallen branches around) He had fun making his “sculpture”, he added more support to the tripod making it multi branched to support a small pumpkin on top. It will be fun when someone discovers it.

Some Days AI Takes a lot of Work, not today

However, I got a shitty pic…my prompt was “anthropomorphic elephants snuggled up and sleeping inside a giant nest made of bamboo and grasses” to try to make something for today’s challenge of “nests”. Making a bird’s nest is too obvious, and I don’t think I ever made a bird in ai, though I have done other animals other than elephants (ok, sloths and cats, and a dog or two).

On a sort of related note, they do sell elephant poop coffee, and elephant poop stationery. I am not trying to sell anything with my ai yet. I am just trying to create my own images to illustrate my still unwritten book about elephants.

I hope today’s post makes someone laugh.

Looking For My Peeps?

Here is my Counter Social Link, if I am doing this right. I miss my 17,000 followers from Twitter (they kicked me off long before it became X) https://counter.social/@igneousidol Counter social is better than X…mostly I just post my wordle score there, so if you play wordle too bonus for both of us, lol..I am still dabbling with AI art daily, some good surprises happen and many disappointments, but hey it is free.
