It’s just screwin’ with me now

I’m trying to get a simple image of a hand holding up a coat hanger (for a cutesy “hang your coats here” sign, fml) and MidJourney seems to have interpreted that as “please show me all the most retarded ways a human hand could hold a thing it might be possible to hang a coat on.”

I mean, at least this one has a fairly orthodox coat hanger (except that stick shooting out the side of it), but that is, in fact, a left hand stuck on the end of a right arm with a vienna sausage thumb. And who holds a hanger like that?

I’ve had all the six-fingered, nightmare fuel variations I’ve come to expect. It’s like it’s allergic to normal.

Which is kind of true. I can potentially earn more rendering time by rating images – it shows me two and I pick the one I like better – and luckily I really enjoy doing that. It shows the prompt for both images and sometimes the rendering is just what the asker asked for, and sometimes it isn’t even close.

No, I’ve not cracked it yet. I am consumed.
