Last Batch Of Doodles Before I Return To Hell (finals)

Yes justice for Arthur please! He is as human as he was in episode 1

Sorry to be a wet blanket but I still find it depressing that even after Malevolent episode 26, I’ll still people talk about Arthur “losing his humanity” in season 3 as if it’s some confirmed major theme of the show.

It was explicitly addressed—and accurately portrayed—as trauma, including a mental breakdown and the emotional numbness surrounding it. Arthur said he was less than human, and John pushed back in one of the most tender and powerful moments of the show. Arthur hasn’t become less human, he was deeply wounded and suffering and needs someone to hold his head above water to keep him from drowning or giving up.

The fallout is UGLY, but humanity is not a zero sum game. Arthur spiraling into despair and violence as a trauma response is not “John soaking up his humanity like a sponge” parasitical relationship, but John using the very kindness, mercy, and hope he learned from Arthur to reach out to him. And most importantly, not give up on him.

Anyway I’m confiscating the word “humanity” from the fandom until further notice.

Listening to this at 8 am during work was a ✨mistake✨

I'm never going to recover from this

Arthur fanart: dirty man, constantly disheveled, crying, bleeding, stabby boi, experiencing the horrors™️

John fanart: S L U T

Yes!! I had to pause, rewind, rewatch for that lil guy

best scene in the movie  EKEKEKEKKEKEKEK

I mean, I would do that. The bit is too tempting.

Eeeeeeeh Macarena - Aaaah!

Noooooo wait—so if John could see his distorted reflection through the mask, then urged Arthur to remain in disguise to “blend in,” KNOWING the other cultists could see him….my dumb PI headcanon is enabled further <3

No hate tho, obviously Arthur and John are The Best PIs, but they’re also so endearingly dumb <3

So John is visible through the pallid mask, which means all the cultists in the hotel could see him while arthur was trying to blend in? Thats awkward Also what exactly do you see if you look at arthur through the mask? I assume you dont just see the king in yellow standing next to him, so is john like a shadow or a haze around arthur? I checked and John actually saw his reflection at the hotel and reacted srangely (never told arthur though)

I dont think he saw himself as a separate entity because his reaction wasnt dramatic but idk

i don’t know what else to say except that AI art is no longer simply a source of creativity or a wonder of human creation. it has become actively hostile and destructive toward the very thing it pretends to uplift and celebrate. it is void of any human element, any soul or ounce of emotion or self-expression. continuing to use AI art knowing that it comes from theft and robbing artists of their livelihood is disgusting. they need your support now more than ever. stop giving these thieves your money and admiration.

Image 1 is a tweet that reads, “this... this is fucking sad. I don’t know what to do.” Included with the tweet are two images; one is a screenshot from a private text message conversation, the other is a collage of AI generated art that was sent to Lee in the text conversation.

Image 2 is a screenshot of only the text conversation, which shows multiple messages that were sent to Lee. There is a collage of AI art, then a text message that reads, “Sorry to bother you. It looks like someone on an AI subreddit is making a custom model and it reminds me a lot of your work. He isn’t telling anyone where the images are being sourced from.” Following is another collage of AI art, followed by the message, “Here’s another one.” The last message is a link to the subreddit.

Image 3 is another tweet that reads, “Oh so it *was* me,” with the word ‘was’ between asterisks for emphasis. The tweet includes two screenshots from the subreddit.

Image 4 is one of the subreddit screenshots. It is a post that reads, “Dreambooth model release! Say hello to kurzgesagtish!” Under these lines is a Reddit message that reads, “Sorry, this post was deleted by the person who originally posted it.”

Image 5 is the other subreddit screenshot. This post reads, “Results I got with a custom dreambooth model.” This post has the same deletion message as the former.

Image 6 is another tweet by Lee, which reads, “For comparison, here’s my art vs artist. I’m gonna cry.” Included is a collage of 8 works by Lee, which frame a photo of them. They follow up this tweet with another tweet, which reads, “If I see anyone I know using AI Art, they are dead to me.” The tweet includes multiple comparisons between Lee’s original art and an AI generated art piece based on it, judging by the subjects, colors, and lines.

Images 7, 8, and 9 are the examples from Lee’s tweet.
