another art fight piece. lots trying lots of experimental stuff lol #artfight #artfight2026 #af2026

The app was built by using Claude. It works by reading your whole document, which is not a process I wish to invite a fucking LLM into. Your proof is in your drafts. This is a barfed-up solution in search of a problem. Or a bunch of scared rubes.

Know what TV show actually wouldn’t get made today? The Twilight Zone. Half of these fuckin’ episodes are about fascism.

Widow’s Bay is so good it makes me almost sad because what do you mean every show isn’t going to be like this forever

Anthony Stewart Head will always be a real one for this. RIP www.thepinknews.com/2019/12/20/a...

thank you for this thread! i had an off-the-cuff comic turned into a meme and it's such a weird feeling that my art is just being spread out there without any credit here's a version with my name on it, im fine with people using that one :)

I saw someone’s 2026 bingo card had “RFK Jr endorses cannibalism” and we’re not there yet but with the more stuff he says I would not be surprised

Oof, Guillermo del Toro absolutely roasting Gutierrez with subtweets over on X-Twitter... I can't even imagine. I hope the money was worth it.

Long before ANDOR, BABYLON 5 warned us of how fascism raises quitely and slowly until it feels “normalized.” Heck, even predicted the use of blonde-haired woman used as the “pleasant” face of the movement. And the use of “aliens” as the scapegoat.

Some heartbreaking animation news today from people who have been some of my animation heroes. It’s up to us to hold the line and build a better future for animation.

yikes :(

ANNOUNCEMENT: The workers of Dark Horse Comics @darkhorse.com are forming a union. Please read our mission statement below. 👇 #DHWU

Hey, fellow writers, hope you get some time and space to write today if that’s what you want. And if you do, I hope you can forget about the industry and focus on the work.

#booksky! Have you SEEN the cover for my upcoming THE SEDUCTION OF SHARK-MAN? I tell you, it must be seen to be believed! #ParanormalRomance #Romancelandia #PulpFiction Many thanks to @trashmancer.bsky.social & @fringe-element.net for making my VISION a reality! www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti...

And so, with the help of these kindred spirits who understand my SOUL, I present to you the utterly, magnificently, wildly, insanely, perfectly pulpy cover for THE SEDUCTION OF SHARK-MAN! www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti... @trashmancer.bsky.social @fringe-element.net 😍🦈🫶

And this of course is genAI working as it should, as a cultural infoweapon that denatures truth and trust in Everything, including art, even if/when it's not actively in use.

the internet used to be mostly images like this

There are now enough "let me know when this launches" pre-backers (if that's what we call them) for THE SEDUCTION OF SHARK-MAN that BackerKit is starting to think it could happen. I'm somewhat more confident than "starting to think" :) www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti...

happy 9th anniversary to the day we watched Zendaya fall madly in love with Tom Holland in real-time

"Night Wing" was created using #gouache on paper. 🦉 #owl Prints/merch of my work; www.the-inner-observer.com

Rod Serling. His life is fascinating and he created my favorite TV show ever so maybe I’m biased.

🫡 CJ Cherryh. Fifty years of publishing and probably close to a hundred books—what a body of work, and so full of gems. One of the very few authors of whom one can say, yeah, I've read a dozen of her books and haven't even started yet

I’m not surprised it’s so expensive. Most cows don’t even lay eggs

New auto-reply for LLM-generated marketing spam ✨

If you didn’t care to write the book, why should I care to read it? If you didn’t care to make the game, why should I care to play it? If you didn’t care to paint the piece, why should I care to appreciate it? If you don’t care at all, why should anybody else?

I’m directing 1984 and am going to have Winston Smith karate kick O’Brien out of a skyscraper window and shout ‘Tell Big Brother he’s next!’ There’s a big animated dance sequence with rats at the end.

I am still working on the first draft of issue one, but the henchman character is a mood, I have the most fun with his facial expressions because relatable. (First time doing any sort of bold inking in my style, but I am trying to mimic in some part stylization of older comic books.)

When AI proponents throw out the tired line “get on board or get left behind” like somehow it’s a bad thing to not want to get on board when the train is running straight to hell lmao

Occurrence. Those double c’s always make me doubt there’s double r’s too so I will almost always write occurence first before the red squiggle reminds me of my folly.

I keep thinking what Marshall McLuhan would think of A.I.-generated media. If “the medium is the message,” what does the medium of generative A.I. say louder than its content? I think the answer there is: Nothing. AI slop is truly just that. Slop devoid of any true meaning regardless of content.

Slow 🐌💎✨ #repostyourart

There is a direct throughline from this and the rise in global authoritarianism. Authoritarianism is actively hostile toward the arts and intellectualism, and thus imagination. When people say that AI is a “fascist project,” this is explicitly what they’re referring to.

This is why it's important authors read a lot, Murakami has no idea this has been done already

Pedro Friedeberg, Two Cows, 1969

It makes me very happy that two #Murderbot episodes, "All Systems Red" and "The Perimeter," have been nominated as finalists for the 2026 Hugo Awards! #tvsky #booksky @marthawells.com

Making a comic is hard but at this point I’m committed to the bit

Read this from @colsonwhitehead.com because it's funny & true & because, alas, it's not enough to oppose AI, you have to fortify that opposition frequently, because it's like Invasion of the Body Snatchers, friends and comrades are going down all around us. Gift: www.nytimes.com/2026/04/15/o...
