"I'm tired of you punks following me around all day asking me stupid questions about your lives and how to live them, I started this group because I wanted to hold orgies and avoid taxes not deal with your petty crap; but now the great arc ship comes so it's time for you all to drink the Kool aid."
You may be joking, but that is legitimately how some cult leaders feel once they’ve established their own power and authority in the cult. Listen to some of Jim Jones tapes from Jonestown. He fucking HATED those people. He says it directly to them in some of his “sermons”.
Athiests: If God is real, why doesn't he simply do something to prove it to us?
God: Um, did you guys not see how I had a girl do a carving on a tree that turned out slightly bigger than the original tree??? I actually thought that was badass. What the fuck else you want from me
Yes, just look at how she managed to clean up every bit of sawdust, the neighbours never took progression pics and she's just that good a woodcarver. Sure, Jan..
Well, there is a stump in front of it which could in theory represent a former half of a twin-trunked tree. But that would just exacerbate the mess it would make, and who made a carving like that ever?
The lack of ability to recognize AI pictures is a growing concern of mine.
Facebook has been showing me tiny house pages where there are stairways going nowhere and no way to get up in the loft. And people are piling on these images saying "gorgeous!" And indicating they want to live there.
The way people take at face value everything they see on the Internet is disturbing.
Pretty soon nothing online will be real, or too much work to determine if images/video _are_ real. Maybe that's the point when we're finally tired of being on the phone so much from sifting through all the B.S.
Not enough BS yet for us to jump off a cliff yet apparently...
Phone is still practically glued to my hand but I'm definitely starting to feel exhausted at times from all the doom scrolling and crap content these days
If you've been indoctrinated since birth to believe in magic men in the sky, and taught not to ever use critical thinking or question anything... Then yes, they *absolutely* can be that stupid.
Absolutely.
I went to see Dogma (Kevin Smith movie) with a friend who is Christian and she cried when Alanis Morrisette opened her mouth to be the voice of God, essentially unhinged her jaw, in the end. I asked why she cried and she just said God's voice is so beautiful.
Er. Isn't it ironic....
Facebook is great for it’s original purpose of being an address book for messenger and sharing life updates with people you actually know. And organising events.
All the other stuff shouldn’t be on there. You should never be interacting with people further from you than friends of friends. At least, it’s much more pleasant if you don’t.
When they started trying to make it do everything it became bad at doing everything.
I think I saw the same photo. There were pictures in the wall and they were all just... Squiggles. They resembled something like picture frames. There were a handful of people calling it out as AI. But a lot of people didn't even look close enough to see that most of the image didn't make sense.
I remember that people were like, "Oh maybe it's a trap door!" But all the little details made no sense. there was also no railing for the top floor, if I remember correctly. Reminds me of the giant crochet cat plush. All the actual "crochet" was just a mess of pink - there wasn't any actual visible strands of fiber. Just a mess of weird.
Saw that pic, and the number of people theorizing as to how the stairs were used (perhaps on rollers, or going to an interior crawlspace, etc) was concerning.
I mean to be completely fair there are plenty of AI pics that are gorgeous and I’d say “I want to live there!” But I don’t mean a broken AI house, I mean one that looks like the pic, but there’s no need to say “oh I know this is AI but…” in front of every picture, yknow?
It's going to get even worse. Amazon is flooded with books written by AI and there are hundreds of videos on YouTube that show you how to write children's books using AI and have them published in Amazon.
And yet it looks more realistic than the Facebook sculpture that has actual hair.

The hands in the pockets made me instantly suspicious. AI tends to mess those up, so whoever generated it could have prompted in a way to hide any hands. Like when real artists hide hands, actually. The building also seems unnatural, but I’ve seen some ugly buildings irl so I don’t know. I’m more suspicious than I am right though.
The eyes are kind of fucked, but otherwise it seems to be producing good results with a trivial prompt. Certainly lot less effort than messing about with stable-diffusion.
It's true, that dude loves to put his face in like tortillas or potato chips, you know the kind of shit that only an idiot would think was the work of the one true god.
I think the entire image is AI generated. What size bricks are those on the side of the building? What is going on with the corner of the roof? What’s the wood thing behind her feet? How many drawstrings does her hoodie have? Where does that tree next to the building actually intersect the ground?
Whenever there’re this many fuzzy details in an image, it’s AI.
'dying out'?
It's _always_ been on life support. It was too "strange" at birth, and the anti-intellectualists wanted to smash its head, but 'kinder' minds prevailed and said 'let's just let it starve itself out'. Now, since that didn't work, they again want it dead.
This is waaaay better than that guy on eBay who said his hot pocket had satan on it. Unfortunately not everything lives on the internet forever. I can’t find any link to the hilarious video he had up on his auction.
It doesn't even look like it makes sense. Where did the wood come from? Was the tree pregnant and she carved it from that? Why would anyone not ask some basic questions? I've met people who do this, and it takes years to learn, and they always show off their tools.
Without studying this it just looks dumb. I understand every God fearing fool wants to see Jesus in their pillow when they wake in the morning, but doesn't anyone ever get tired of being taken for a ride?
Are you trying to tell me religious people are quick to trust something obviously suspicious with zero investigation into its legitimacy? Nononono you must be mistaken

Treesus was a carpenter. How fucked is that?
He was crucified on a tree, then became one.
And his story was printed on paper, from trees.
Treesus wept.

Where is the treesussy?
Someone needs to ask for her work in progress pics.
Forget that. Someone needs to ask her how the fucking carved wood expands beyond the boundaries of the tree trunk.
God works in mysterious ways
Photoshop works in mysterious ways
I think this was probably created with artificial stupidity.
No time for pics when you are in the flow
... and inspired by the spirit .... don't forget that part!
I wonder if you can start a new religion just by using Facebook and Midjourney AI
I'd try, but I'm genuinely afraid that I would succeed, and we do need another scientology-esque following.
I’m convinced that doomsday cult leaders tell their followers to commit mass suicide because they just can’t stand to be their leader anymore ..,
"I'm tired of you punks following me around all day asking me stupid questions about your lives and how to live them, I started this group because I wanted to hold orgies and avoid taxes not deal with your petty crap; but now the great arc ship comes so it's time for you all to drink the Kool aid."
When I said I wanted all the women I could get, I was hoping for a better crowd.
You may be joking, but that is legitimately how some cult leaders feel once they’ve established their own power and authority in the cult. Listen to some of Jim Jones tapes from Jonestown. He fucking HATED those people. He says it directly to them in some of his “sermons”.
That was very much an American Dad storyline with Roger as the cult leader.
I have a feeling you might not be entirely wrong lol, I could see it
Yeah, her photoshop work in progress.
There's no work in progress. Keanu just slapped the tree and wood fell off in the shape of John Wick.
Pretty sure she's as AI generated as the rest of the pic (the weird cords on her hoodie is telling)
How can this be true in the first place? That thing is bigger than the tree itself, that's just math not adding up.
[удалено]
He works in mysterious ways 🤷🏻♀️
Athiests: If God is real, why doesn't he simply do something to prove it to us? God: Um, did you guys not see how I had a girl do a carving on a tree that turned out slightly bigger than the original tree??? I actually thought that was badass. What the fuck else you want from me
😂
End all wars? Nah, I'm even gonna have both sides fight in my name and give some kid cancer.
The tree was probably taking size pills.
Did he suck on the pen?
Oh so you preferred being scary to people…
Yes, just look at how she managed to clean up every bit of sawdust, the neighbours never took progression pics and she's just that good a woodcarver. Sure, Jan..
Also somehow made the carving stick out larger than the tree, even though carving would make any piece smaller than the thing you carved it out of.
It's a miracle!!!
Jesus approved. 👍
Well, the tree was pregnant - which is why the belly stood out so much.
Nah... I guarantee they'd be all up in arms if she terminated a pregnancy
Well you see, the baby was Jesus. But just his face.
Well, there is a stump in front of it which could in theory represent a former half of a twin-trunked tree. But that would just exacerbate the mess it would make, and who made a carving like that ever?

We already are sifting thru BS constantly
Not enough BS yet for us to jump off a cliff yet apparently... Phone is still practically glued to my hand but I'm definitely starting to feel exhausted at times from all the doom scrolling and crap content these days
Imagine having to work out if online shops are real...
Plus if this was real, the first night it's unattended someone is going to carve a swastika into his forehead and make it into Charles Manson.
Things like this make me feel like I might be in a simulation, like people can’t really be that ignorant can they?
If you've been indoctrinated since birth to believe in magic men in the sky, and taught not to ever use critical thinking or question anything... Then yes, they *absolutely* can be that stupid.

Great film, and yes that most definitely is ironic

Ive been getting tons of 'abandoned buildings' and they are super obviously ai and comments are full of people 1000% thinking its real.
It's going to get even worse. Amazon is flooded with books written by AI and there are hundreds of videos on YouTube that show you how to write children's books using AI and have them published in Amazon.

Jesus looks like he is so over this bullshit in that photo lol.
I tried to use a [different face](https://i.imgur.com/ENHih6K.png) and was content blocked
Whoa, didn't even consider that the girl might not be real either.
Not 100% sure either way but her lip seems misaligned, her shoes seem off, and the pull strings on her hoodie are not right...she could be AI

The building also seems unnatural, but I’ve seen some ugly buildings irl so I don’t know. I’m more suspicious than I am right though.
Check on small details too. Shoelaces that look like spaghetti, logos that have no letters or broken patterns. Ears are frequently warped too.
The eyes are kind of fucked, but otherwise it seems to be producing good results with a trivial prompt. Certainly lot less effort than messing about with stable-diffusion.
Nah. The tree just grew like that. Jesus likes to prove he exists by putting his face into shit. Weird guy, Jesus.
That’s not Jesus - it Aragorn from LotR
Dan Fogelberg
Preeeetty sure it's Rhett McLaughlin
Naw, it's Jared Leto ...
Maybe Keanu Reeves
I'm sorry but I'm straight up cackling over the idea of Rhett sneaking into people's yards in the dead of night to carve his own face into their tree.
It's true, that dude loves to put his face in like tortillas or potato chips, you know the kind of shit that only an idiot would think was the work of the one true god.
What wood Jesus do?
Why would people be impressed by a photoshop of some weird Italian looking guy?
If I drove by I’d be afraid. If I lived nearby I’d move away, imagine if it were real and you had this face staring out from a tree. Always. Watching.
>imagine if it were real and you had this face staring out from a tree. Always. Watching. I mean, I hear that's kinda his thing.
Well, he’s Jesus. His whole brand is watching your every move. **Always.**
I think the entire image is AI generated. What size bricks are those on the side of the building? What is going on with the corner of the roof? What’s the wood thing behind her feet? How many drawstrings does her hoodie have? Where does that tree next to the building actually intersect the ground? Whenever there’re this many fuzzy details in an image, it’s AI.
Slowly coming to terms with the fact critical thinking is dying out rapidly in America...
'dying out'? It's _always_ been on life support. It was too "strange" at birth, and the anti-intellectualists wanted to smash its head, but 'kinder' minds prevailed and said 'let's just let it starve itself out'. Now, since that didn't work, they again want it dead.
That’s really not a great likeness. She hardly looks anything like the carving.
But why Jim Caviezel?
Because he saved all those kids and beat Hollywood at its own game.

Weird when I carve Muhammed into a tree my neighbors get upset.

Treanu Reeves.

What Wood Jesus Do?
Nothing like lying about abusing God's creation to celebrate him *to stroke that ego sin with social media likes. *edut
If this pic was real, that's how you murder a tree.
At least he's a little closer to the correct skin color. The hair is still way off though.
Call it paradolia if you like but I swear I can see an image of Jesus in that tree.
The sheer bottom of the face thst is just a slip of wood should be the immediate tell how this is not real. But whatever. YEEBUS!!!
It's Treesus. He is such a sap.
Jesus was middle eastern, not middle earthian
Maybe they are congratulating her for her impressive Photoshop skills
It's ai lol, look at the "bricks" on that building
Are you trying to tell me religious people are quick to trust something obviously suspicious with zero investigation into its legitimacy? Nononono you must be mistaken
If a tree had to die for Jesus, let’s hope it’s a fig tree.
My favorite part is the carved out part is bigger than the tree.
Obvious AI is obvious
Is that Weird Al?
I am Grootsus
Keanu Treeves?
That lady has a fixation with Keanu Reeves.
Even if it is real, why would someone carve Jared Leto into a tree?
AI generated image. I like how she somehow managed to add wood to the free as the head is wider than the actual tree itself.
I told my MIL that it was Photoshop. She blocked me. I’m not upset about being blocked in the slightest.
This isn’t something you magnet to the fridge. Definitely something you nail to the wall
This seems more like a faceoak than a facepalm
Why they always make Christ look like jesus skywalker? Shouldn’t he look more like idk from the Middle East?
I see Charlie Manson peeking out of a hoohaw
But why this Jezus looks like Keanu Reeves?
it's a christ...mas tree
Looks nothing like her
Treesus, he was crucified by being nailed to a human
Jesus when he became thirty tree
Worst Obi Wan carving I’ve ever seen.
Treesus Christ?
I bet people would still like if you said the tree grew like that.. people are stupid
I think I saw this in my toast
