This was posted in 2019 but I find it EXTREMELY relevant to everything going on right now, and yet nobody is talking about it. And no, it's not an article from The Onion: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019...

Friendly reminder that non-violent revolution has a 50~% success rate according to Erica Chenoweth, but violent revolution has a 25% success rate. And that's why the right is trying so hard to goad the left into violence... Don't fall for it.

I’ll post more about this on Monday but yes it’s true, ya girl got to draw the new covers for the relaunch of Animorphs. I am… THE LIZARD KING

I don't see why America can't give GenAI/ChatGPT the KinderEgg treatment after so many vulnerable people have died due to no guardrails and "move fast and break things" attitude in the tech industry.

Graphic Novel Review: LET ME IN YOUR WINDOW sees the ghosts in the machine Adam Ellis's Let Me In Your Window embarks on a thought-provoking exploration of the haunted spaces of digital culture.

Happy Labor Day! Today we're bringing you The First Union, as told by HBomberguy (@hbomberguy.bsky.social) and illustrated by Skutch (@skutchdraws.bsky.social) It's the dawn of the industrial revolution, and of the way many of us work... Have you ever heard of the term "Luddite" from an elder?

There can be no roast when: 1. any art is inherently superior to using GenAI imagery, and 2. camera obscura and tracing portraiture has been a valid artform since like 17th century Tudor England

My most unhinged take but also my most correct one. I will not be taking questions at this time

One more thing that irks me about genAI plague is now "AI" is used as synonym for "algorythm" or "program" What used to be "face recognition" is now AI What used to be "an surgeon machine using an advanced algorythm" is now "AI machine" Your cooler, your depilator, your search engine, everything.

The AI infrastructure build-out is so gigantic that in the past 6 months, it contributed more to the growth of the U.S. economy than /all of consumer spending/ The 'magnificent 7' spent more than $100 billion on data centers and the like in the past three months *alone* www.wsj.com/tech/ai/sili...

Ramya in a hurry! #rampart #apexlegendsfanart

If I ever won a billion dollars in the lottery, I'd buy houses for all my friends and family. A billion = $1,000,000 x 1000, so for 1 mil each, everyone would be able to have a nice house AND I'd still have 99.9% of the money leftover. One billion is an INSANE reality-altering amount of money. 💀

Dug out this ancient meme by Foxorian, and also reposting the blank one for artists to fill out! Not solely a roadmap for the future, it can help you look to the past, a raw reminder that your humanity and artistry will always be far more than an unfeeling machine's output and the sum of its parts.

Why does Netflix get to post the trailer for Genndy Tartakovsky's "Fixed" on YouTube and not get demonetized or have their channel taken down, nor contend with payment processing companies like Visa/PayPal/etc. for sexual content? I'm opening a can of worms here: what's with the double-standard?

I know nothing about "Umamusume", except I assume it's a game adaptation and sequel to Boots Riley's "Sorry To Bother You", and everything happening within the game is WorryFree corporate propaganda

IBM: "A COMPUTER CAN NEVER BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE" Yes, and that's precisely why corporations, an entire business model whose CORE defining legal characteristic revolves around denying human accountability, are all full of executives clamoring to adopt GenAI as much as possible, as soon as possible.

Was in and outta the hospital and doctor and urgent care a lot the last couple weeks so I'm a little behind on commission queue still, but just want everyone to know I still have you on the list, you're still scheduled and not forgotten. <3

send this to someone who only knows how to make this one joke 🥀

Bro, you gotta block that guy, not because he sucks, but because he’s only here to get you to say stuff to him that will get you in legal trouble.

No Kings Day, June 14th (sorry monarchists)

If the tacoman doesn't want to follow due process or rule of law, then I think the entire west coast should be able to secede without due process as well.

For those of you who might use ChatGPT or any kind of GenAI for your writing, give this a read and maybe reconsider

I teach a game writing class. Students have scripts, worldbuilding docs, treatments, etc due every week About half the class used ChatGPT last semester even though I made it clear using an LLM = an F. When I asked why a studio would ever hire them if their work was just ChatGPT, they seemed stunned

hey did you hear they made an animal based off of that gamecube emulator?
