When MAGA censorship hits home
From Felipe Galindo's Facebook page.
The White House published the article: "President Trump Is Right About The Smithsonian", to my surprise, an artwork of mine, displayed at the Smithsonian American History Museum is on a “list” of objectionable artworks (selected by The Federalist, a conservative publication,) stating that the image is "promoting open borders by depicting migrants watching fireworks through an opening in the US-Mexico border wall."

AI is Killing Illustration Art
From The Daily Cartoonist.
There she was: a woman in a pose that suggested she was either about to sell me shoes or ask me to subscribe to her OnlyFans. Her legs spread in a way that made me wonder if Skechers had pivoted from athletic footwear to gynaecological equipment. The shoes—ostensibly the point of the advertisement—were an afterthought.
But this wasn’t just bad advertising. This was the death of commercial illustration happening in real time, one algorithmically-generated subway poster at a time. It isn’t new. I’ve written about it before— but this time it’s getting even more ubiquitous. More companies are doing it, and it’s getting gross.
