According to the budget, the province ended up spending $271 million-double. This year, the province earmarked $150 million."

Montgomery Burns pacing around a scale model of Springfield, saying "Since the beginning of time man has yearned to destroy the sun." and you know, when it's 30+ degrees celsius when leaving the apartment early in the morning you realize that the most evil man in town may actually have a good point.

big black pickup truck parked in our building parking lot with an obnoxiously large Portugal flag sticking out from the hitch at such an angle as to block part of the lane. (editor's note: it has been observed that the driver of this truck drives like a moron so the flag and its placement are not surprising whatsoever)

The text from the quoted post formatted to fit the "clown putting on makeup" meme. "The AI filmmaking industry cannot grow on a foundation of dehumanization. "AI slop" is not constructive criticism. It is a label designed to dismiss, shame, and publicly degrade artists who are experimenting with new tools. You can dislike a piece of work. You can critique the execution. You can debate the ethics, the process, or the quality." [Man has applied white makeup to half of face] "But once the conversation turns into online dogpiling, harassment, and language meant to strip artists of dignity, we have crossed a line into online bullying and defamation. Artists are already vulnerable to intense public judgment. Adding a culture of ridicule around their work does not protect art. It harms artists and many artists are taking their own life due to hatred and a false narrative that "AI is not art"." [Man has applied clown makeup to lips, eyes and cheeks] "As this industry matures, we need higher standards for how we disagree. We need laws and platform policies that take coordinate hate and targeted harassment seriously. And we need to reject narratives that turn creative disagreement into permission to abuse people especially artists and creators. AI filmmaking will only become a real industry if we build one where artists can create, fail, improve, and innovate without being treated as less than human for using new tools." [Man has clown wig placed on head] "Critique the work. Do not dehumanize the artist." [Man has turned into a full-on clown who says "do not dehumanize the artist" while promoting a process that completely dehumanizes the art they claim to create]
