Nobody could possibly be surprised George Lucas is advocating for AI. Dude’s been an absolute weirdo his entire life. Just an absolute goofball erratic driver who occasionally crashes into greatness.

This goes hard in a way Frazetta’s finished pieces never really did.

You’re 95% there!

All the Angie Craig ad money in the world can’t touch someone unconditionally speaking the truth.

These assholes are truly the worst of us.

Just a nasty lil’ guy

…and while we disagreed on some things, he was always nice to me personally. And I think that’s what’s most important to remember.

The people who fundraise off our fears don't share them. They tell us over and over again that politics is just a job or a game to them. It's bleak.

Each copy comes with a fold-out line you can stand behind

If Mitch McConnell isn’t doing well, how come I was visited by three of him last night?

If Lawrence truly wants to win the trust of his disparate Arab allies, his hallucinations better be halal.

Remember when he had to leave the restaurant where he was dining due to protesters? Unfair!

Gosh, I can’t stop thinking about ol’ Mitch McConnell. It’s so hard to imagine the possibility we may be without this titan of the senate.

I personally take offense that the word Mitch McConnell worked his entire career to create is so catastrophic that it prevents me from taking the satisfaction his departure deserves.

Every year my mild annoyance with neighborhood fireworks becomes disbelief as they just keep going. How much money did you spend? How come after 15 minutes you don’t just say, “neat!” and call it a night. I know I’m out of touch with how most people think, but hours of wall-to-wall explosions? Nuts.

A special message for a special day

I’m anxious for images to work again so I can share my prized collection of blue-gray rectangles

It is the dawn of a new era. Hear our battle anthem. Welcome to the new InfoWars.

Fireflies never stop being just crazy amazing

That’s actually just the name of the virus eating Bolsonaro’s testicles.

One aspect of the video games as art debate I want to think over more is how much of the medium’s acceptance is hindered by the extent it seems to despise both the people making and playing games.

Court can't go on like this. The Constitution as plainly as possible says people who were born here have an unequivocal right to citizenship. Four people whose ONLY job is to read the Constitution for the rest of their lives just tried to overturn it because they're tired of brown people. Pack it.

He already gave the movie five endings. How many more options were there?

Everyone loves the Akira Slide

Rewatching Adventure Time with my son and Finn is 100% one of the best model of masculinity on television.

Bioshock: The Ride

First off, what a racist piece of shit. Secondly, I have been out-assimilated by the children of immigrants more times than I can count. They are aggressively American in a way I simply can’t compete with.

I’m currently playing Ghost of Yotei, and while it’s not that I’m unable to envision more intricate and environmentally responsive graphics, I’m still in awe of what I’m able to experience now. So yeah, no rush.

This movie is actually a pretty solid supernatural west coast noir (a surprisingly robust genre). But making sure the cover features the hero is hoisting a shotgun will ensure rage from Hellblazer fans will never diminish.

Due to prevailing market forces outside of our control, we’re forced to raise prices on our paddleball game. Base paddle will increase $.50 Paddle with attached ball will increase $2.00

Sure! I’ll get in on the fun! #makeaterriblecomicday2026

Yeah, bring ‘em a gift assortment of Deez Nuts

The thing is, as far left as I am, *i’ve* internalized the do nothing establishment model for the Democratic Party. Completely believing change is hard, and while I’m not happy about it, the only real option is stasis against fascism. It’s opened my eyes to see you can actually fight to do good.

Perfect for a product that gobbles up other sources and shits it back out stripped of meaning or context.

Who the fuck is using AI for their flyers anyways? The most reliable way to tell if a band is worth checking out is if the flyer looks like dog shit.

The idea of that a machine producing for you technically involved imagery is some kind of gotcha is pitiable. There is art detailed and involved in ways I’ll never accomplish that leaves me cold, and there are crude scribbles that cut to the heart of me. Art is a conduit, not a wall.

Capped off a lovely Father’s Day watching Coraline with my family. A few nights ago we introduced our oldest to Pam’s Labyrinth. A good weekend for fairy tales about girls navigating very prickly manifestations of want and obligation.

This is a very good comic

Happy Mother’s Day for dads!

Thinking about this further, it’s the conflict that almost defines the whole medium of video games. There’s been lots of effort with wildly varying levels of success to reconcile the mechanics of a massive murder spree with the understanding that it’s probably not good to do so.

Obviously art can do a poor job of articulating its ideas, and that’s just bad art. But there is no idea so clearly expressed to be immune from misinterpretation. Calvin pissing stickers, Punisher logos. We are all of us to a certain point iconoclasts who just take what we want from art.

This is interesting because I think creating that uncomfortable space between sensation and critical understanding is one of the most important qualities art provides. We are, all of us, a mess of contradictory feelings and understanding how something can be both exciting and awful is powerful.

I’ve decided the moment it all started to go bad is when we stopped having experimental animation fests.
