In a quiet suburban neighborhood where minivans outnumber streetlights, a group of women have been ingeniously disguising their love of wine as a book club. While their intentions may be transparent to everyone else, these winos insist that their guise is a stroke of genius. “It’s a sophisticated literary club that explores classic as well contemporary novels, okay? We don’t have a wine problem. We can stop anytime we want!” said club president, Charlotte Chardonnay, as she poured herself another glass of Merlot. “We appreciate literature just as much as we appreciate a glass of wine filled to the brim.

      You could have paid someone to make one for you or just picked a different image to use. At absolute minimum you could have cited that it’s AI instead of letting people believe it’s an artist’s work.

      It looks generic and junky, I could tell it was AI from one glance, before I even noticed all the errors.

        I run this website on my own as a side project between being a father and a full time time job. It loses money every month so I’m not paying someone to create custom art for every article. If an AI image bothers you, you can are free to downvote but fyi AI stuff is everywhere so you’re going to have a hard time avoiding it.
