yall remember… companies dont make art, people do. there is no disney art, there is no unreal or tencent art. they create a wrapper around someone else’s art. find out who makes the stuff you love

Good thing i screencapped it

wow bsky is so useless rn i guess the vibe coding finally got to them and now no one knows how to fix anything bc yknow. vibe coded

Looking at social media and starting to think I need to log off and start making a bunch of oc comics for myself bc the state of the world is gonna make me go insane

The most bad-ass rebuttal from Tite Kubo, the author of Bleach.

Surtr vs Laevatain

Caaaaaan I finish like 10+ pages in 5 days!!!!!!! (Dumdum and didn't allocate my time well)

I need people to know that the photos of colourful moon are not from Artemis II. They were made by a Ukrainian photographer, who enhanced the colours of the moon's surface to represent its mineral composition. I can't stand to see an individual work be misattributed and misrepresented like this.

*sigh* If your Kickstarter video/image is AI, I won't back it. If your book has an AI cover, I won't read it. If you're a public supporter of AI use for creative work, I will unfollow you. I cannot stress enough how offensive I find AI use in the arts. It is outright theft, it is lazy, it is gross.

As much as I love doing crafts I'm always so afraid I'll mess up and then end up "wasting" materials that I end up petrified to start any new crafts bc what if I just spent $50 for nothing But then letting it sit there is also letting $50 go to waste 😭

I've seen people trying to defend it today by saying "No, no, I just use it to brainstorm, bounce ideas, I do the actual writing" and with all the kindness in the world I need to tell you: if there is a stage of writing you are not good at, you need to get good, not use the plagiarism machine.

You'll die full of ideas. If I threw myself 100% into just executing the stuff in my notebooks NOW, I'd never get through them in the 20-odd years I have left. Ideas are just boxes to hold the emotions you're trying to magically convey from your brain into strangers' brains.

New Chroma zine merch preview! This tarot card will be part of the physical bundle when it releases, so please stay tuned for the pre-order form! It's taking a bit longer than I expected to finish up the zine and work has been crazy but it's still in production! 🙏💖 #botw #aprilfools #zine

I keep seeing the same lie peddled across the visual arts community too. "Most professional artists are using it but too scared to admit it." Fucking no we are not; I have zero interest whatsoever in offloading and atrophying my hard-earned skills to plagiarism systems owned by grifters.

ai feature implementation strategy is essentially “how annoying can we make the ui” so people accidently hit ai features so these companies can brag about how “highly used” ai features are internally

This is a nationwide phenomenon. The centrists and normies are more viciously angry than the socialists and anarchists, who gave up long ago on the illusion of a working system. Would encourage leftists of all stripes to take it seriously, welcome them in while they’re receptive.

heads up for anyone who does art coms on vgen! theres a scam going on that sends a link in the ref section that asks you to click it to confirm or see a new policy. saw warnings about it on X so figured i'd give a heads up here

Here are Dave and David's full unedited comments for those interested:

Our "Forgotten Island" trailer just dropped!! So excited to reveal a sneak peek at what our team's been cooking!🫰💜🔥🇵🇭 youtu.be/i1EVeS7l7kU?... #dreamworks #forgottenisland

Tomodachi life demo BUT IM STUCK AT WORK this is so evil 😔

I'm about to be so petty you won't even believe it FUCK everyone who kept telling me "but this is the future and you have to adopt it or be left behind" I hope you live in shame and my warnings haunt you for the rest of your lives :]

Next week there will be another existential boogeyman designed to discourage you from pursuing art. There will always be a mosquito in your ear trying to convince you your creativity has no value. Let this Sora situation be a lesson. Stop getting pushed around by scammers. Make art

There's still 17 days to get Issue 01 of CONTINUE :) www.kickstarter.com/projects/con...

At work fighting jetlag 🫠 and I have so much substitute teaching to do this week pray for me guys 🙏

It's so funny to me when an entertainment company says "Man up." "Man up and accept shitty art!" "Man up and pay $100 for a game!" I...don't have to? www.pcgamer.com/games/action...

Back from my Japan trip and immediately having to go back to work the next day oof 😔 I want the pay to recuperate my losses so I guess I'll go....my jetlag tho o)-(

If you'd like to help the indie community, support the people over at Comic Fury, Spider Forest, Comic Rocket, Webcomic Library, Webcomic Travelogue, Comix Cleric- and many more. Check out those places for webcomic resources and to keep things creator owned. That was the whole point of webcomics.

Begging. Pleading. GlobalComics is run by techbros. They keep bringing on more techbros. If you want people to read your comic.. highly advise against GC. Their background is all AI. They implemented (and took away) an AI summary system that folks did not consent to. THEYRE SHADY.

nothing gives joy like seeing a bunch of notifs and it's just a single person demolishing through your posts. i will never be caught complaining about this bc how can you be upset when you're the reason someone is having a great time. you've become a metaphorical gold mine to someone in this moment

LRT: I am a simple creature; I see FFXII and I reblog lol
