Tell us where the talking llama is and we’ll burn your house to the ground!

Also meaningfully addressing the underlying causes of an enormous amount of anxiety. Therapy is good for and should be easily available to everyone, but you can't therapy your way out of rampant climate change, wealth inequality, and governmental rot.

How does one get a bunch of distinct individual subjects into an image like this? I feel like if I put in "giraffe, sloth, capybara, hanging out in 1970s style photograph wearing human clothes," I would get a bunch of chimeric fused creatures with parts from all the different animals mixed together in each individual.

It can die from stress, but if you chop it in half it might just grow back as two whole starfish. It could go either way.

According to the inflation calculator, that's between $273.02 and $1,638.10.

 

No bourbon or anything, just spicy ginger ale and sour cherry.

Brands blacked out so as to not be promoting products.

 
 
 

A quick search suggests that the average American uses about 1.3 pounds of honey per year. If I'm 40 years old, and guess that I might live to be 80, that's only 52 pounds of honey, which I could easily buy in bulk. Honey doesn't expire, and even assuming the price doesn't skyrocket from bee die-offs, inflation alone will make the price go up over time.

Does it make sense to buy all the rest of the honey I'll ever need for the rest of my life, right now?

 

Try Wudbeiser, the best-selling beer on the moon!

Prompt used for this image

Atompunk space age full-page advertisement realistic illustration 1950s America of a man in a retrofuturistic astronaut spacesuit smiling and holding up a tall glass of foamy beer

Theme

The future, a place where all of us will live! New technologies will continue to improve life for all, as we master the atom, the electroradio wave, and the magnetic storage tape! And wherever we go on Earth, OR BEYOND, we will bring the marvels of capitalism, and the wondrous products it provides!

Capture the golden age of advertising and the atomic age. The technology of the fifties and sixties, extrapolated into the future, and used to sell you something you may or may not need.

Good luck, and most importantly, have fun!
