Quick fanart I did of a Mega Lucario Z Miku design that @kaatokunart.bsky.social did a little bit ago! Merry Chrysler to all 🎄

I dont think most audiences realize that a lot of animation that is outsourced means that the vast majority of the crew cannot talk about it/share things they made on it/and sometimes even say they worked on the show. every show is different.But now when our 'content' is our calling card, its rough

It's a good idea to never assume your idea is wholly unique. There will always be similar things, and people will always draw similarities to it. But also, the people who matter, the people who enjoy what you make, will be rapt they now have two cakes. Make your thing, enjoy it.

Just pre-ordered! So glad this is coming out in 2026. Only thing better would have been it coming out in 2024.

Essentially, I think that LLM-generated dialogue only makes sense if you believe that the product of writing is words. But the product of writing isn't words, any more than the product of justice is prisoners, or the product of love is weddings. The product of writing is meaning.

It is generally accepted in dementia care that you DO NOT play along with false memories. PLANTING them is absolute malpractice.

It doesn’t fix things, but it really does bring me comfort to know how miserable some of the worst people are. Donald Trump tweeting over 200 times on Christmas. Billionaires fighting with strangers online during the holidays. Everything about Elon Musk

The holidays are hard when you're estranged from your family, but it gets easier, and you are not alone. From @sandyernestallen.bsky.social some counter programming for trans people who may be struggling today. www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...

A key thing about corporate use of genAI is that it removes all the friction involved between the executives' weird fetish shit and inner thoughts, and public display It does to corporations what alcohol does to a bigot.

I loved this. And I want to note the whole “there were no autistic people before …” discourse has an answer here: just the people were sent away in the incarceration (yes “care homes” like this), and if they fled, they were just abandoned by society, usually to die.

NFL broadcasts basically only work because TV has been a unionized business for a long time so naturally Netflix and Amazon look like children comparatively

I did not understand this: one of the five Europeans the US has barred from traveling to the United States...is a permanent resident who lives with his family in the US. Now he is worried about being arrested and deported for the crime of monitoring online hate. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/25/u...

When you cut the salaried experts and then have to firefight constant emergencies with freelancers who rightfully charge a premium for their expertise and bill by the hour-

Every Democrat running for office needs to promise investigations and full prosecutions from top to bottom, remove its funding bloat then break up the agency and distribute its core remaining useful functions across other agencies.

Hey #indieanimation fans and supports and #indiecreators #indiefilm I made a starter pack of black indie creators ( primarily Animation cuz that's what I know mostly ) that everyone should follow. Folks like to support Indie but make sure you're supporting black voices too go.bsky.app/AY6B9eE

The link between gluten & Celiac disease was established in the 1950s Renée Richards was playing women’s professional tennis in the 1970s RAIN MAN won the Oscar for Best Picture in 1989 Willful ignorance of the past is the glue that binds modern conservativism together

The immediate threat has always been not that it would take jobs, but that some dipshit exec would spend a billion dollars integrating it into the business, drive everything off the cliff, and 5-8 years later the rest of us are left picking up the pieces.

"people can still download your art from bsky and feed it into AI" if gamer behavior has taught me anything, just one extra button press is more than enough to annoy a MASSIVE amount of people into not making the effort

Mohamed Ahmed is back on Bluesky and he and his family could absolutely use support! You probably remember him if you've been following me for a while, he has established a small farm next to his tent in Mawasi refugee camp, and posts pictures of it regularly.

Merry Christmas, everyone! Have some old art lol

It's incredible how much of this stuff is just out in the open, but because Trump said "Russiagate hoax!" 5000 times, the media was brainwashed into treating it like a nothing story instead of one of a ten alarm scandal

This is a really good point that I had not run into before: these "creators" have no further insight into their alleged creation than the average audience member and that is why it cannot be called art (besides all the other obvious reasons).

For further context twitter added a button that allows users to generate ai images using existing art posts from artists. It removes glaze and it basically reskins the artwork by using the existing work as a base. Twitter is no longer a safe space for art
