Court Painter is often inspired by blockbuster movies and he just wants to join in on the apocalyptic pinkness of it all. He’s not sure what that means but one must carry on regardless !

Court Painter, being a big blockbuster movie fan, rocks the summer fashion take away!

Because of the recent media Twitter buzz created by the planets chief Twit , Court Painter has allowed this one time only release of Twit related images for your viewing pleasure.

Elon Musk has revealed a new logo for Twitter, choosing a “minimalist art deco” X as part of a rebrand of the platform.

The “X” has long been an obsession of Musk’s, and is his name for an “everything app” that he has pledged to launch at some point – with Twitter the likely vehicle. Shortly before buying Twitter in October, Musk described the social media platform as “an accelerant to creating X, the everything app”.

After taking over Twitter in October last year, Musk folded the company into an entity called X Corp, whose parent is X Holdings Corp. This month, the Tesla CEO announced that he was forming a new artificial intelligence company called xAI.

Elon Musk’s Big Government Grift

https://newrepublic.com/article/160500/elon-musks-big-government-grift

It’s entirely possible that this carnival barker of a CEO will continue finding crafty ways to extract tax breaks and favorable contracts from government entities for the rest of his career. But we should be alive to the ways in which Musk’s reputation is built on a faulty foundation of borrowed money and worker exploitation. To Musk, the government is only useful in helping to enrich him, and he otherwise expects it to stay the hell out of his way. The problem is that he is now powerful and rich enough to get his wish. For all his supposed brilliance in developing electric vehicles and rockets, this may be his greatest talent: grifting the government. In doing so, he’s creating a roadmap for reform, if politicians care to notice. Jacob Silverman  @SilvermanJacob

Court Painter never misses a business opportunity

ChatGPT : Chatterley G.P. Thunderbuns, content consultant to the Court Painter Enterprise was asked to:

Court Painter seen with drawing of subject who owes him Big Time!

Court Painter’s artistic career is marked by both financial failures and outstanding contributions to the artistic enlightenment of the masses. These contrasting aspects of his career paint a complex portrait of an artist dedicated to his craftiness, despite the challenges he faces.

Financial Failures:

Throughout his career in partnership with his Press Attache AHM, Court Painter Enterprises has encountered numerous financial setbacks. His dedication to his artistic vision often led him to prioritize creative expression over commercial success. As a result, he struggled to find steady patronage or financial stability. The predictability of the art market ignoring his salable product ,the wishy washy whims of wealthy patrons ,pontificating politicians and whacked out celebrities hinder his ability to secure a reliable income.

Court Painter’s insistence on pursuing experimental and innovative techniques sometimes alienated potential buyers, as they preferred more conventional and traditional artworks in tones of umber and burst sienna. Additionally, his focus on depicting his subjects as socially irrelevant and politically impotent earned him both admirers and detractors, further complicating his financial prospects.

Outstanding Contribution to Artistic Enlightenment:

Amidst the financial challenges, Court Painter’s most remarkable achievement lay in his dedication to promoting artistic enlightenment for the masses. He passionately believes that art should not be confined to the elite but should be accessible to all strata of society” “no matter which rung you find yourself on the ladder of life”. To this end, he often exhibited his works in public spaces such as malls, farmers markets, train stations, recycling depots, rod & gun shows ,on the modern internet thingy and private viewings in his studio, breaking away from the exclusive confines of elite galleries ,gated communities and aristocratic homes.

Court Painter’s art is known for its powerful storytelling, conveying messages of social justice, equality, and human struggle for attention through his expansive yet emphatic, tough yet tender paintings. These paintings resonate with the most common of people, sparking discussions and bar fights while evoking weeping emotions. Through his art, he seeks to raise awareness of societal issues, enlighten the masses, and encourage them to contemplate the world around them critically by pointing fingers and waving flags with rude messages.

Moreover, Court Painter actively mentors aspiring artists, holding verbose workshops on how to properly draw a wagon wheel and perspective classes at his favourite watering hole, inspiring a new generation of sodden talent. He encourages them to embrace their unique artistic voices (emphasizing gravel over falsetto) and use their skills to engage with social ladder climbing and dabbling in political matters. In this way, he contributes to the democratization of art, the expansion of the artistic community and providing a road map to obscurity and sack cloth and ashes.(Google it)

Conclusion:

Court Painter’s artistic life exemplifies the complexities he faces striving to balance creative integrity with financial success. While his financial failures and nagging social ostracization continue to overshadow his career, his outstanding contribution to the artistic enlightenment of the masses should not be underestimated. His commitment to remaining conscious through most days until wine time and producing approachable art with a capital A ,leave a lasting impact on the brave new art world, continuing to inspire future generations of Sunday& Holiday face painters to use their talents to engage with important societal issues to mull over during self congratulatory coffee klatches.

Ultimately, Court Painter’s ongoing legacy in concert with his trusty howbeit annoying Press Attache AHM ,reminds us that his true worth as an artist lies not in financial gains but in valourizing the abject poverty of ways and means and lingering dust on the pedestal, however proudly retaining bragging rights for the transformative power of his artistic vision and shattered damaged dreams.

Editors note: This depressing analysis of the Court Painter Enterprise by his nibs Chatterley GP Thunderbuns was rejected out of hand with two thumbs down by Court Painter and Press Attache AHM, just so you know!

Thoughts of Stuart Kauffman :

The biosphere is always changing. There is no Law

System of many parts, many processes lead to emergence of order & organization. Collective behaviours emerge by chance and number.

Ceaseless creativity!

The biosphere builds without selection its own possibilities of future becoming.

Are the laws of nature or physics blind in that they seek no direction and have no ‘purpose’? That’s the scientific paradigm. But the world works so well: from a very simple beginning, complexities and beauties have emerged. Some say that there are deep ‘organizing principles’ in the laws of nature such that complexities are natural and expected outcomes.

Google leaves Canada out of Bard AI chatbot launch 

Google announced in a blog post early Thursday morning it is expanding Bard AI chatbot, the company’s equivalent of OpenAI’s ChatGPT, to 230 countries and territories. Canada is conspicuously left off that list, which also excludes Russia,China ,North Korea and Afghanistan.

In the spirit of public service Court Painter went to his favourite content consultant Chatterley G. P. Thunderbuns II to sort out in Bardian rhyme WTF is going on with Google and it’s snub of the Great Dominion !

ChatGP Thunderbuns task was to : Respond in the voice of the Bard to Court Painter’s angry paintings  depicting his brain cramp about  Google leaving Canada out of Bard

ChatGPT’s response!

Oh, Court Painter, your paintings do unfold,

A tale of woe and perplexity profound.

Through strokes and shades, your anguish takes hold,

As Google’s choice leaves you quite spellbound.

In hues of anger, your canvas speaks,

Of brain cramps and confusion deep within.

Why would Google, with such power and reach,

Exclude Canada, a land so rich in kin?

But fear not, dear Court Painter, for I shall lend,

My poetic voice to your fervent plea.

Together, our words shall rise and ascend,

Conveying the urgency for all to see.

Let not this exclusion dampen your art,

For creativity knows no bounds nor bounds.

In defiance, let your paintings impart,

The passion that within your soul resounds.

And as the Bard, I pledge to amplify,

Your message through verses strong and clear.

Together, we’ll raise our voices high,

Demanding Canada’s inclusion, my dear.

So, Court Painter, take heart and paint anew,

With every stroke, let your protest shine.

For art, when united, can break through,

And bring Google to embrace Canada’s fine.

May your canvases be seen far and wide,

A testament to your artistic might.

Let us, as creatives, stand side by side,

In this battle for inclusion and what’s right.

Seems national Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre and United Conservative Alberta premier Danielle Smith share the exact same deficiency..they can’t read derogatory slogans on T shirts.

In an outstanding gesture of Stampede conservative solidarity both leaders posed seperately with Eric, as his name tag read, in his attention-grabbing neon green T shirt with highly legible letters reading on the front “Thank a straight person today for your existence Straight Pride” and “Good people disobey bad laws.”on the back.

It’s troubling that both Poilievre and Smith’s implied defence for posing with a person flaunting a not too subtle anti LGBTQ+message ,was they couldn’t read the T-shirt without a teleprompter!

Spokespeople for both leaders sputtered after the damage was done something about not agreeing with Eric’s message however the images have left the building folks and entered cyber hate space ,landing right where the bigots will undertake amplification!

A party line (multiparty line, shared service line, party wire) is a local loop telephone circuit that is shared by multiple telephone service subscribers.

The party line on a particular issue is the official view taken by a political party, which its members are expected to support.

Following excerpted from Toronto Star article July 6/22

OTTAWA – Former prime minister Stephen Harper says he wants closer ties between right-leaning political parties including the Conservative Party of Canada and the Hungarian government, which has been accused of democratic backsliding.

Harper chairs the International Democrat Union, a global alliance of right-leaning political parties that includes Canada’s Conservatives as well as the Fidesz Party led by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.

The two met Thursday in Budapest, and Harper said on Twitter that they discussed “the importance of centre-right parties strengthening their collaboration.”

Harper also met this week with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in Rome, as she leads a bloc of conservative European parties.

Human Rights Watch says Orbán’s government has delivered sustained “attacks on rule of law and public institutions” such as undermining judicial independence and surveilling journalists.
