Yeah, the artwork is good, but it is a miss in terms of solarpunk. It’s like re-skinned Mad Max, or Battletech.

Ooh … Jacket on top of kimono! I haven’t seen that one before. Did I miss something, or is AI mashing up modern and classic Japan?

Why is he holding a flamethrower? Does the AI think firefighters are pyromaniacs?

I believe in a society where all are cared for, but did we really just legislate another subsidy for boomers? They’re the richest demographic in Canada. What about housing for families? The Boomers are the ones that created this fucking mess. Just squeeze us more. I’d be more sympathetic if I hadn’t actually had multiple boomers complain to me because they can’t age out in their 5 bedroom homes on their acreages. The fuck? You made housing an investment and made a mint on it, sell your investment! Oh, it’s a ‘home’ now? My family of 6 is in a two bedroom derelict shack because 3% was apparently the cost of living increase, while housing has doubled in 5 years and food.
