The game industry’s obsession with graphics is so funny because every other year there will be some breakout hit called “Stick Figure Mansion” or some shit that outsells 90% of the market and runs on a toaster

DLSS 5 Off DLSS 5 On

Tomorrow is Election Day in Illinois- vote for Kat Abughazaleh!

The DLSS5 tech just announced by NVIDIA sucks. It suuuuucks. As a video game developer who was an art lead for many years, it fuuucking suuuuuucks bro. I beg you not to use it. Just play the game the developers made, don’t let this souless tool add uncanny detail without intention or understanding.

Especially dedicating this to the trans youth in the UK right now 🩷

Drew a few lines, and somehow four little cats appeared. Watching them play and run around, can you believe they’re made from just a few simple strokes? A little unruly, but already kind of adorable, right?😆 #shouxinsketch #sketch #cat

Outnumbered the fascists. Police failed to break our line. They got bundled into taxis & fucked off home. Got a pic that goes crazy hard out of the whole equation. Lovely Saturday, over all.

hey look a fun history lesson!

@michaelspicer.bsky.social has a brilliant take on this type of programme: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wjnm...

making the Chikn team run their works thru AI is so antithetical to having a small budget indie animated series in the first place??? Buzzfeed making Kyra delete their reaction is just an additional middle finger. they don’t care. incredibly ghoulish treatment to a small team that deserves better.

"Where the Odalisque was spindly but oddly elegant in its humanoid curves, General Sabik could see Zalmoxis was instead a bulky horror. A long head tapered into a thick neck that typically stayed low beneath its too-many shoulders [...]"

@jasmindarnell.bsky.social finally got my print framed up, so happy I picked this up!

Also, while I'm posting, have a look at this cover for an upcoming mecha game that I cannot tell you any more about! Thought I'd try my hand at a Gundam: Origins kind of thing.

They, who are unfathomable.

"Sorry, I'm in shock"

things are horrible in france these days can't do much right now so here's a cathartic painting on bz l'extrème droite et leurs nazillons

Going to create my own postcards to mail out to peeps.

FREE GRISELBRAND!!!!

Together, we raised over $600,000 for @translifeline.org this year. From the bottom of my heart, I'm so grateful. We have come together to say to our trans friends and family that they are loved and that they are not alone. Trans rights are human rights. When we gather together, we can make Magic.

The Wright Museums Instagram page is HILARIOUS. Think The Office but it's the staff at a Museum for Black History. Better believe this is on my list of places to visit. Gentle Spades "I'm a veteran"

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Took this photo as part of a time-lapse and fell in love with this scene. It's one of my favorite pics I've ever taken.

Donald Trump is a child rapist

this is not a tiktok it is a documentary

I hear what you’re saying, and I’m down with it. And also, my wife (who has an anxiety disorder) reminds me that some people *are* afraid, and they’re still turning up and fighting, too. It’s okay to be afraid, if there’s someone who is afraid, we’ve got your back.

ICE has kidnapped one of my MN News Guild siblings

To my fellow Bostonians, ICE is ramping up a massive surge here in Massachusetts. We must NOT let the Gestapo win. We MUST defeat them at ALL costs. A threat to one of us is a threat to all of us. Treat it as such and look out for the vulnerable & weak ✊ #FuckICE #AbolishICE #ICEOutofBoston

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

Hey everyone. My kitty is sick, I found her unresponsive and had to take her to the ER. She's septic and will be in the ER for days. Her care is expected to cost up to $8000. Please help spread the word 🙏🏼 #gfm #crowdfund #mutualaid #animalrescue #vetbills #helpapet #petfundraiser #petsofbluesky

avoid self loathing ✅ your art is special because YOU made it ✅ literally anything you create is better than AI✅

I signed this already but if you havent - heres another reminder!

RFK Jr. is going to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines. It will take a few years before the deaths and disabilities ramp up to a level that even the most vile Republican cannot tolerate. RFK Jr. will be long gone and unaccountable, as our babies die from preventable illness.

Sharing some of my thoughts from the other site but man I'm really pissed off about this shit.

Trump is often discussed as one of the worst presidents in modern American history, but it’s important to remember that such a categorization is far too narrow. Donald J. Trump is one of the worst people in modern American history.

Last night, the Government of Alberta passed legislation to suspend the charter-protected rights of trans youth. Today, transgender young people in Alberta are waking up with fewer rights than their peers.
