Let do this

75 comments

I had this idea, years back, to start a subreddit for missed photos, IMAP instead of ITAP—"I missed a picture." I was going to make it a paragraph description, but this would be just as good.
Edit: guys, see how this is all in the past tense? I'm not going to be doing it. I don't want to be a mod.
- Do it.
- Good idea. Seriously. Do it, do it.
  Do it.
  
  Do it
- It's been about half an hour. Have you done it yet? Or are you going to let someone else beat you to it?
- Do it!
- Yesterday you said tomorrow - just do it!
  
  I can't tell you how often I hear Shia Lebouf screaming all that at me in my head when I'm trying to get myself to do something, lol!
- I love this. Do it and I guarantee I will share at least 3 drawings.
- Please make sure you try to restrict or prevent generated content. It must be hand drawn by a human being
  
  I am human possess expected amount of fingers
- Piling on to say do it. I'd subscribe.
- I would subscribe and contribute to this community for sure. So often I see amazing things and don't have my phone to capture it, and it would be a cool place to share some of those things, both serious and silly ♡
- Okay, if you're not gonna do it...

  I hope this notifies y'all. And I hope I didn't misinterpret any bandwagon posts from that one chain as interest if any of y'all weren't interested.
  If any of y'all wanna be mod, let me know. It's only fair.
  
  Thank you, g!
  
  Oh shit, hell yeah! This got buried for some reason, but I see it now! I'm in!
- Just Do It®
Yes! For the fun and privacy!
- At least in the US there is no expectation of privacy in public.
  
  Doesn't mean you have to be a dick about it tho..
  
  Good thing other countries exist where everyone needs consent to process your data - processing such as by making you the center of a photo.
back in the 90s I worked for a pc tech shop and my buddy in a different office location would often quick draw customers and reactions, then fax them to me. It was a game, telling a story, all via fax. gah, I loved the 90s… today these same drawings would be on the front page for 1 day and then forgotten until some bot reposts them. But in the 90’s, we could tell adventure stories in 3 block panels to others via fax.
That could be a good experience for the baby.
I wonder if there is some research showing the effects on exposing babies to visual art.
- maybe, but i feel like while it may correlate, it's not the cause. the cause is more likely that if a parent cares enough to show their child art, they're probably more nurturing and prioritize academia more than parents who raise an iPad kid
  
  Yeah this would be one that's really hard to separate causation from correlation that's for sure
  
  Who's to say they're not looking at art on their ipad? Not being able to afford or have the time or ability to take a day off and travel to a gallery, or having a neurodiverse kid who doesn't like crowded spaces, or whatever other reason they might be using an ipad doesn't make "ipad kids" bad.
  I don't disagree with your larger point, just with the framing of "ipad kids" as the bad part when it's a symptom (of a society where people feel obliged to have kids even if they don't want them and/or are required to work so hard just to survive that they don't have the time and energy to spend with their children).
  (and for the record just to save any jumping to conclusions - I don't have kids, don't plan to, this isn't some defensive thing, I just think that your framing is off)
- I don't know about visual art but there is about music. Exposing a baby to complex music (many notes), like classical and jazz can help develop perfect pitch. The brain learns musical notes like it learns language.
- Depends on the art. High contrast imagery is generally considered developmentally important.
  Michigan State Study
  
  Figures babies aren't known for appreciation of artistic subtree
- Babies take to art at an impressive rate, you just have to really grind their face into it.
  The crying stops once they understand the art.
- Idk, clearly the baby thinks it's a mediocre piece of art😐
Thats wholesome and adorable. My pops used to always pick me up to see stuff when I was little.
Well I'm afraid there'd be a lot of featureless stick men...
- That's fine imo. Photorealism isn't necessary to tell a story
  
  The op pic isn't photorealistic but I can't still draw like that.
everyone bring this to the front page plz
Draw a picture, it'll last longer
Was it a picture of Vigo the Carpathian?
Great! Literally had a todo in my weekly checklist to make this if no one else did. I'll see you there
Me with my cat
- Why though, you want a legal excuse for staying in your garage all day?
  
  Lul gottem.
- Are you okay?
