Merry Christmas everyone! Have a lil cutesy animated pinup from 2021!

🚨 ADD GLAZE AND NIGHTSHADE TO YOUR ART, ESPECIALLY IF YOU STILL USE TWITTER 🚨

This is your casual reminder that executive orders are not laws. EOs are directives meant to manage the operations of the federal government. Not state governments. The states that even deign to acknowledge this are the ones who actively WANT to. No one's forcing them.

Kadokawa stated that it did not approve of an AI dub, and Sentai stated that it wasn't aware of the dub beforehand.

Artist propaganda I’m not falling for (and you shouldn’t either):

Since @punchcatstudios.bsky.social 's "Over The Garden Wall Reanimated" is debuting tomorrow, I thought now's the time to share my contribution to the project! Wish I could've spent more time polishing this before the deadline as I was super busy DX Regardless, hope you all enjoy!

PLEASE GO WATCH THE LATEST EPISODE OF #monkeywrench! It deserves so much more love and attention!

Now that Monkey Wrench Episode 5 is out, here's the two roughs I made for it! As you can tell, it's a lot different in the actual episode with the second shot omitted. Even though this year was rough with life getting in the way of my shots, it was an honor to be part of the series once again.

While driving home from work yesterday I saw a giant video billboard playing an ad for a conceptual metro system in Los Angeles with a bunch of 3D motion graphics. I legit thought it was made by a marketing studio at first… until I saw on the bottom right: “Made with Luma AI” I hate this timeline

The House just advanced §43201 (Sub. C, Title IV), AKA the 10 year ban on state AI laws: thehill.com/homenews/hou... It's now time to reach out to your Senators! Wondering how? See: 5calls.org/issue/ai-reg... Or feel free to use the card below.

Folks, the House advanced the disastrous reconciliation bill, with the destructive 10-year State Ban against regulations for AI intact! We now MUST mobilize our calls to the Senate! Call today! If you need a script the post below offers a fantastic alternative! We only have one chance! Lets go!

Just called my reps and senators again! Make sure you do too by Memorial Day!

Update: The TERRIBLE 10-Year Ban on State AI Regulations advanced House Committee. What does this mean? It means we BLAST the HELL out of their phones! Call your House Members AND Senators today! Called a few days ago? Call again! Tell them NO on 10-year State AI Regulation Ban! (Info in thread)

Folks call your Senators now!! A ban on any state laws on GenAi for 10 YEARS is gonna do unthinkable harm! For those of you wondering what to say here are two posts you can use to build your own script (use alt script to cut and paste) Need to find your representatives? Here you go: 5calls.org

Now that FLCL Reanimated (@flclreanimated.bsky.social) is out, here's my scene that I completed back in 2022!

In light of recent news, here's some anti-AI art from 2022 during the "Say No To AI Generated Images" movement. Was heavily inspired by Frazetta's work! Actually ticked off a few AI bros with this one lmao. #NoAI #HumanArtist #SupportHumanArtists

Google joins the call to gut our legal protections, pushing for a world where Big Tech gets to profit from all your innovations & works for free, and that theft is ok’d by law. No joke IF they get this, the US will likely face irreparable harm as pivotal creative economies crash.

If you are in any creative or copyright dependent org of any kind, NOW is the time to speak up. You have until March 15 11:59 pm EST to send a note to the WhiteHouse on why we need to follow our current laws. We all lose if tech’s deranged agenda passes. www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-st...

"Animation is Cinema" gang... y'all better see this in cinemas! Saw it once before and I'm definitely seeing it again!

Saw this back in December when it debuted for a limited time at Laemmle Cinemas in North Hollywood... DEFINITELY considering seeing it again! I *HIGHLY* recommend you all go out and see it too! Animated films need support now more than ever!

Icon vs Artits

Oh no... I'm 30 now
