I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

Mega Man told people to pick up a pen that’s my fucking GOAT

If a CEO says they care about their employees but they insist on generative AI for "minor uses" like concept art, they do not care about their employees, and especially not the people whose job it is to make the concept art they don't think is very important.

My response to anything over the next two weeks

"but what if they can't draw" here's hideo kojima making level blockouts for metal gear solid 1 and 2 with LEGO I am begging AI bros to use their brains for two seconds

"they don't know how to express the idea" here's rian johnson's storyboard for knives out pick up a pencil and a napkin

Part of the issue is the very term AI has been widened out broadly and infinitely so now we're playing this language crapshoot, during which people can either be mistaken, use the wrong term, not fully understand the term they're using, or just lie. It's a fucking mess.

Today!! youtu.be/pcRNxxAh9rc?...

editors when the sexy queer horror is sexy, queer, and horror

not to toot my own horn too much but *I* can think up my own art and writing concepts without killing the environment

Wanted to let everyone know, please do not pay exorbitant resale prices for my Sounds Of Tokyo-To Future vinyl. I'm apparently popular enough to have someone trying to flip copies for high amounts, but I am going to keep re-printing this vinyl. It will never be a limited edition unless I say so!

There's a billion new indie games that spit on that doomerist propaganda, and if that's not enough, there's a billion more games that came before ShitAssGPT which define the material that glorified scraper steals. We can cross our arms long as we want, and my joints are gettin good at locking up.

So look man if we're just gonna be online here watching all these big studios come out and lay down on the tracks about Gen AI going "I have to do this for some reason." then I think it's more important than ever to celebrate games from based devs who are out here openly posting "Nuh uh, fuck that."

I think the most discouraging thing about all this AI stuff is I feel like it's just deepening the long term game of lauding a dev *until* something dire comes out. Workplace abuses, AI use, theft, sexual harassment, abusive hiring practices, etc. Like just waiting for a shoe to drop all the time.

if you're an artist, writer, musician, creative, if you have a dream and you can't stop thinking about it, write it down and channel it into your creative process!!!

i love it when im listening to a song ive heard hundreds of times and suddenly notice something i never did before

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things. Here’s a blurb on what I mean:

We're releasing the Calico Soundtrack on Vinyl!! Today marks the 5th anniversary of Calico's release - it is astounding to me how much you've all enjoyed the soundtrack

gaming companies pivoting toward using gen ai for their games, “omg why aren’t people buying our games” brother YOU are part of the reason RAM prices are skyrocketing and regular everyday gamers can no longer afford the parts they need in order to play your games 😭

No creative likes to be compromised by their boss, either at work or on social media.

The utter lack of respect for concept artists and due diligence across the board is disgusting.

everyone invest more in human artists now

The Return This piece was inspired by the recent return of the spotted hyena to Egypt after 5,000 years, driven by climate change and shifting ecosystems. An animal long absent appears again. Not as something symbolic or old, but as a real presence that forces a new way of looking and understanding

EVERYONE GET MORE PASSIONATE AND SELF INDULGENT ABOUT CREATIVITY AND BEING HUMAN NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Important PSA: I hope you never see other artists as competition. Please take their success as proof that you can also succeed here.

Develop “concept art”?? 💀 💀 💀 All the image models solely rely on stolen work of countless of artists to function at capacity. Using them not only is deeply unethical but puts the company at risk. Not worth it and I truly hope ( hell, I’m begging) that they reconsider 😭

Hot take, but I think if you have an audience, you are responsible for that audience because they're a reflection of you. If folks are in your spaces harassing other people, especially on your behalf, and you choose to do nothing about it, you're letting everyone know that's acceptable to you.

If the website that's still up is accurate, we will reach 20 full years of uploading my music to the internet in very early January. Odyssey, Eurobeat Brony, Ken Blast, Stebbins, DNA Team… I have held so many of these names now, for over half of my lifetime.
