I'm inside my apartment on the other side of the Atlantic and I too can smell it.

Brad Pitt was his stand in, can't you tell?

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 21 points 10 months ago

I'm just going to go out on a limb and assume the sketch artist makes money on Patreon selling custom Edward Cullen "art" and just couldn't stop the habit.

[-] loutr@sh.itjust.works 11 points 10 months ago

Holy shit the pic with Caroline Ellison is amazing lmao

[-] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Is this the guy who starred in The Bankman?

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 39 points 10 months ago

Sketch artist: "No can do, but if you slip me a Bennie, I can make it look like you have a chin"

[-] sndmn@lemmy.ca 36 points 10 months ago

He should have asked to sketch artist to make him look not guilty.

[-] cley_faye@lemmy.world 23 points 10 months ago

They are artists, not magicians.

[-] TheRealLinga@sh.itjust.works 27 points 10 months ago

It's early and I thought this was The Onion for a good 2 minutes. Wow.

[-] MermaidsGarden@lemmy.world 26 points 10 months ago

Wow, I’m shocked! Well, maybe not that shocked.

[-] o0joshua0o@lemmy.world 24 points 10 months ago

The narcissism doesn't fall far from the tree

[-] oldone@kbin.social 20 points 10 months ago

sketch artist: "I'm good, but not that good"

[-] Stuka@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

...why are courtroom sketch artist still a thing?

[-] Taigagaai@lemmy.world 26 points 10 months ago

Because it's usually not allowed to take pictures in court

[-] Stuka@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago

That's not a real reason. Most courts are recorded, have stenographer and apparently sketch artists. There's absolutely no reason for court sketch artists to exist in modern society. It's just silly and wreaks of some conservative tradition.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 17 points 10 months ago

I don't think providing steady employment to a local artist is the worst thing taxes support.

[-] Stuka@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

If we're gonna be handing out money for totally worthless tasks, oh boy imma be rich

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 4 points 10 months ago

Be real, bro, you already do that.

[-] Stuka@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

....are you illiterate? That's exactly what I said.

Those recordings are not available to the public though, right? Isn’t that the difference? Or am I just mislead here?

I see why the tradition of it feels conservative. But I dunno. I think it’s cool. Seems like good culture.

[-] RidgeDweller@sh.itjust.works 5 points 10 months ago

But why? Seems arbitrary and antiquated

[-] LufyCZ@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Think it's to protect the identities of people

[-] Stuka@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

It's working well, I definitely do not know it's trump Jr there.

[-] LufyCZ@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

That's not who it's supposed to be protecting lol

[-] topinambour_rex@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Because AI aren't allowed in court, yet...

[-] Kase@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

"Why does the defendant have a different number of fingers in every scene?"

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

-AI flips you off with 13 middle fingers on each hand

[-] kandoh@reddthat.com 1 points 10 months ago

Artist is better for privacy.

[-] Gingerlegs@lemmy.world 17 points 10 months ago

Ah, like father like son I see

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

It's even worse if you see him do it on camera. He did everything but wink and do an air kiss.

[-] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 12 points 10 months ago
[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

That would at least have made me laugh. This made me want to retch.

[-] eran_morad@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

Classy guy like that? No way.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

They captured his stank cloud well

[-] TheJims@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

They’re sketch artists not magicians

[-] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

They are an artist Jr not a miracle worker.

[-] theotherone@kbin.social 10 points 10 months ago

Take comfort knowing the sketch artist made him look like Jack Smith’s brother.

[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

I just threw up a little in my mouth.

[-] NegativeLookBehind@kbin.social 5 points 10 months ago

His fellow prison inmates will certainly find him sexy. Don’t drop the soap Donnie!

[-] ZeroCool@feddit.ch 34 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)
  1. Rape isn't funny.
  2. This isn't even a criminal trial.

Stop embarrassing yourself.

[-] holycrap@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

Well if the artist honored that request they wouldn't have gotten a likeness

[-] Txcfe@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 10 months ago
[-] nxdefiant@startrek.website 4 points 10 months ago

He looks like the portrait of Dorian Grey

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 6 points 10 months ago

I'd make a joke about Jr saying, "Before, right? Right?!??" but he wouldn't get the reference.
