Happy holidays everyone!!

Hanukkah was my favorite Jewish holiday growing up, because the story is about of defiance in the face of injustice and the miracles that happen as a result. That's why Galaxy likes it, too.

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future." - @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit. Incredible words. Listen to all of it!

It should be illegal to be this cute

"Something that I have found difficult for non-artists to understand is that the ‘early messy stuff’ that non-arty folks insist can be ‘fixed by a human artist later’ is where the best work is done." True of every creative field. You can't start building halfway up; the foundation has to be sound.

When..when... When you... When.... When you ...

"concept artists can experiment with AI to make their lives easi-" wrong I smack you with Claire Hummel's immaculate and detailed understanding of costume design, which she got by studying historical references, which made her strong, which you will not become by relying on AI get good

Wishing everyone at Naughty Dog a very Merry Unionize Right The Fuck Now Holy Shit

Look I dunno I am not trying to toot my own horn or promote on the back of hardship but today is a real rough day for trans folks and we have a new short out featuring our 2 Trans leads sharing a tender moment and finding solidarity with each other and I hope it can bring a little joy today

whats irresponsible is tying your video game company to a money bubble that trains on unethically obtained data

Larian's new game: How to lose all the good faith you'd built in ten minutes or less.

"New technologies" hey man what do those technologies do? Where do they get their data from? Where are you going, I just want to talk

This is disgusting. Part of the process of concept art is iteration and conversation. Nowhere in there does anyone need to 'generate' anything. fuck ai

Hey everyone, I've had a couple of unplanned medical expenses come up this month, so I'm opening my commissions for 3 slots! I'm also open for covers and professional work! Thank you ✨ ko-fi.com/vashtheartis...

Just finished up this commission for the lovely @beandog17.bsky.social

The enemy is always aristocracy. It changes shape to fit whatever society we’re in, but the desire for it is endemic for certain types of people. You must learn to hate it as much as it hates you.

I love to tidy up and find my cat's treasure stash. This week it included: - no less than 10 cat toys - 3 dice - a set of headphones I thought I'd lost - a pair of a friend's glasses 💀

firefox AI and slop disablers from tumblr for the people from local hero mckitterick. Tried it on my end and the browser is significantly faster now (copy paste-able in the alt text)

Artist Tega Brain is fighting the internet’s enshittification by turning back the clock to before ChatGPT existed.

Hello! Looking for work as a concept artist! Portfolio in the replies! I love drawing things with a focus on fashion, worldbuilding or storytelling. [email protected]

This is so wildly exciting - artificial photosynthesis?! The knock on effects for clean energy could be amazing www.cell.com/joule/fullte...

"Under the guise of technological inevitability, companies are using the AI boom to rewrite the social contract — laying off employees, rehiring them at lower wages, intensifying workloads, and normalizing precarity. [...] AI is not the cause of the layoffs but their justification."

It also misses a HUGE opportunity for dev whimsy. I remember working on Magic: Duels and badly photoshopping tropical print shirts onto placeholder planeswalkers key art while waiting for the full-res files to come in. Because, y'know, we wanted it to be VERY OBVIOUS it wasn't final

🚨 Yet again Ted Cruz and Steve Scalise are trying to sneak in a moratorium on state GenAi legislation. If passed states can no longer enact laws for transparency, child safety, privacy, environmental protection etc. We got 3 days to stop this. Call now! www.senate.gov/senators/sen...

the fact that canadians pay for medication like this is ridiculous. A diabetes diagnosis shouldn't be costing me $400-$700 a month. being next door to america really had an influence, huh?
