...with pirated photoshop, because you can't afford it
Having said that, the only graphics program where I'm reasonably proficient is pbrush.exe. No, not mspaint. Its predecessor.
GIMP
Draw a square in √99/π easy steps.
The real challenge is drawing a circle!
Gimp is so good. I don't even remember how to use photoshop anymore.
It's like learning ancient Greek so you forget how to speak English now.

You don't pay for Photoshop because you can't afford it
I don't pay for Photoshop because fuck Adobe
We are not the same
Met a guy that uses Arch Linux and was like "yooo fellow brother". Saw him open up google and google drive and thought to myself "nvm, we're not the same"
Because he has a job where they use those things? And you have no job?
Maybe he was using the unlimited google drive that was available for like 10 bucks a month, I had 48 TB of pirated movies and shows on there

That's one way to stick it to the man! Hell, two The Mans at the same time.
With GIMP or Krita because I refuse to perpetuate the "industry standard" excuse.
based and fosspilled
Gosh GIMP can really be obtuse and awkward at points, especially in past versions, but GIMP is like an old childhood blanket for me at this point. GIMP has always been there, a handful of keystrokes and clicks away from being installed on any computer I have ever used. Over the years growing up I would use it off and on, and now I just have this weird relationship with it that can’t be summed up easily, like the irrationally sentimental feelings one might have for a bit of tattered cloth.
Everybody tech savvy I know would always just steal photoshop but for me, idk, the fact that GIMP is just freely given out to the world magically transmutes its jank into a beauty that I cannot help but love. It just feels right to make a shitty meme in GIMP.
Also fuck Adobe and subscription models, I don’t even want to steal their shit because it still contributes to the idea that their raster image editing software is the only professional shit in town and everything else is a joke.
Pinta is good too
Krita is my go to free open graphic program. Even donated to them.
photopea is a free browser version of photoshop
Photopea is great
Kidpix was a certified banger too
Why the fuck would you buy photoshop even if you could afford it? Just use GIMP

Born too early to explore the stars
I think you misspelled "Born too early to slave your life away in an extractive space colony shithole owned by a space fief, thank fuck".
Space was always a place of wonder, curiosity, beauty, and new beginnings. Though I suppose it was fruitless to hope humanity would leave their crap on Earth.
Space late stage capitalism and war, anyone? Hopefully not...
Of course it is.
As my zen teacher once said “You can leave your car here when you go, but you can’t leave your karma”.
This was when we were having lunch together and I was telling him about my plans to move to another city. Without my saying it, he picked up on what my secret hope was: that all the problems plaguing me here wouldn’t follow me.
Yes, it is very naive to think going elsewhere will change our nature.

I'm literally right now looking at job prospects way out in the boonies in random states because the only "reasonably" priced houses are 2526251847352 miles from civilization and even then some of these I've seen are absolute fucking jokes: "tear down house, amazing potential! $150,000 please!" 70 miles from any job prospects... Go fuck yourself.
As for the Big Brains suggesting "just be a couple then." Some of us aren't exactly desirable and I refuse to marry someone for purely financial reasons, I want to, you know, actually love the person I marry...

Sadly, some are:
So it came as no surprise when a new study by CIA Landlord recently revealed that Tinder users who specify that they own a property in their profile receive 57% more matches than those who don’t.

🎶Not because I own property🎶

Handyman's dream! Built on an easement in the 1930s on this wonderful 0.01 acre lot. Orignal lead paint included. Must wave inspection and sold as-is. Only $200,000 and it's yours!
HOA rate: $650/month.

you can thank State Street, Blackrock and Vanguard for buying up the American dream to rent it to you forever. Democrats are trying to limit this by stopping hedge funds from buying homes, which are for families.
When do we start to see corporate assassinations? At what point do we see people start to fight back? We are slowly slipping into full on 'subscription' based lives. They are stealing our children's future away, one home at a time. Essentially turning our economy into slavery 2.0
Because of the extreme prices and demand for homes, my apartment rent went up 24% in October. They are literally taking half my income now. Half my life belongs to this one multi-billion dollar corporation now. The other half goes to my other living expenses. I make double the average American and I am basically a slave already
It's 2030, you own nothing and you are happy
I'm 30 years old and still don't have my own apartment. Being rendered homeless in your teenage years fucking sucks, and things onæy seem to get progressively more inaccessible.

You may still get a chance to explore the stars one day, it'll just be in VR.
Wish there was more time and willingness to break this down and embark on individual solutions.
Nah keep scrolling
I was going to break this down and start to detail solutions, but I’m late for work. Maybe later…
Sorry, no time. Gotta watch all the youtubes and read all the books and listen to all the podcasts and... fuck I'm hungry ah
Born just in time to doomer post on Lemmy
If home ownership is too expensive in 2024, what makes anyone think that space exploration would be cheap in 2100?
