Ha, I for one welcome our skynet overlords (kidding).

I feel a little "old man shakes fist at sky" with this stance, but, I really believe AI art is a good assistive tool for artists who still have a creative vision / final product in mind, the AI might do a lot of the leg work but the artist still has the attention to detail, like making the art actually relevant to the viewer, or the viewers context.

This ain't that. This screams to me bot account that was fed a list of all 50 states with the word "Villian" tagged onto the end so that they have some easy content to post for those sweet, sweet likes.

A God, or God villian of Vermont should reflect our wild life, our landscape, our flannel-clad Co-op sticker wielding people, *something* from our state.

Hell yeah i am and you aint gonna shame for it, lmfao.

Sure people will die, they are dying in this bs LSC society we got going on rn too and while we could change how society works to fix it we are doing F-all about it in any meaningful ways. IDC and wont be shamed for not caring about coastal communities. Food? meh we will see but new areas will open up as old ones become unviable. Crops have and will change and we can do a lot with genes to help adjust as things change.

I’ll try to make this simple for you, climate change means a very large amount of people are going to die in the next few decades and it also means things like food and fuel are going to become extremely expensive. Probably a lot more expensive than you can afford. You should not welcome the coming apocalypse but you’re a woodchuck so yeah.

>But hey it makes you more comfortable and that’s what really matters right?

As a matter of fact yes, cheaper to live day to day too! I would love nothing more than to be able to afford to build a net zero home here on the small bit of land i got, cant get a loan but hey NETO will come and dump 3k into my POS trailer,lol. Cant really go green until i get something on a foundation here but even then it wont be to save the planet, it will be to be free from paying for energy i(we) need to live a modern life.

For sure, but a single dispensary in your town would have to do $300k in sales to get $3000, that’s a lot of sales to cram into 4 months. Definitely not impossible, but I’d bet most full time residents that smoke regularly have their own connection or grow their own. So you’re really relying only on tourists.

South hero is probably the only town where this would stand a chance. Honestly would be a brilliant idea to open one next to that bait shop on Rt 2 headed to the islands. 99% of tourists headed to the islands via VT have to drive that road plus most of the dudes buying bait smoke too. Hmmmmm

BUT, that’s not a grand isle town!
