Bubble, you can't say that!

It would be absolutely incredible, to see what happened to Iron Lung happen with this as well. Not just to give two major wins to indie creators in such a heavily dominated industry. But this could potentially change the landscape for indie animation going forward entirely.

Found this on twitter so I thought I share it here

Happy Birthday!! ❤️✨

do not ask yourself whether or art is good instead ask is it sincere was it cathartic was it fun to make is it made by me and don’t forget to stay silly

see?
here's the thing. A lot of people are like, the earth is fucked, it's beyond salvation, it's hit the tipping point, but time and time again we see that if we just fucking fixed the problem, it rebounds so incredibly fast. Imagine what could be done if people actually cared

I know calling reps is very nerve racking. You're not sure what's the right thing to say, and tbh having a script thrown at me makes things just as nerve racking.

I called today, and I figured I'd write up a transcript of how my call went down. Hopefully it helps demystify the process

@naomikritzer.bsky.social There's a pretty great Tumblr post about this: nitewrighter Mar 26 me: I don't get it. I thought I was doing a lot better than I was a few years ago. I'm like 10 times more on top of things than I used to be. How does everything feel terrible now? The Tiny Me in OSHA-approved Hi-Vis Gear Who lives in my brain and pulls all the levers: Boss, it's the fascism. You're completely gunked up with cortisol due to the fact that your entire daily life is now underscored with a haunting awareness of the rapid erosion of your rights, dignity, and any and all social safety nets, and you're also bearing witness to the most vulnerable people immediately being persecuted. This creates a natural stress response that basically means you're going to continue having memory and organizational problems, as well as emotional imbalances. Me: BUT I HAVE A BULLET JOURNAL AND I MEDIATE NOW. Tiny OSHA Me: BOSS, THE FASCISM.

Posting the sign so I can tap it when necessary.

Here's the timelapse, including the silly picture I used as a reference.

Mr.no$ it'd be an honor 😳👉👈

Fuck ICE.

Any of the spineless fucks who supports ICE or trump are genuinely just not human.

UHM CHAT!!!!
ITS MLK DAY

Let’s remember a very historical and VITAL part of our history today! Let’s celebrate MLK jr AND the brilliant black leaders that helped fight for the rights for many Black Americans!

FOLKS!

Chiitan loves good transgender people🏳️‍⚧️
In today's world, even making these kinds of statements will get you slandered, but I think it's more important to create a world where transgender people can live peacefully and be themselves, so I will continue to send out messages until my account is deleted

So starting Jan 15th Twitter is adding to their terms AGAIN. The TLDR; You will no longer be able to opt-out of Grok or AI training. Having a Twitter account will automatically grant Twitter full license to anything you post and will be fed to AI training. Period. Not just AI scraping, but full-on.

Dude carrying way too many things, labeled "writer/artist" with the stack of stuff labeled "side WIP, WIP from 3 months ago, passion project, imaginary project, WIP I keep open in the background so I don't feel guilty, the WIP I'm actually "working on""

if you see this post, your actions are:
- if you have a spare buck, give it to Wikipedia, then repost this
- if you don't have a spare buck, just repost

your action is mandatory for the world's best source of information to survive

If you're not trans, I don't think I can fully explain how important this is.

It's so powerful that one of the most circulated science media publications in the world has come out and said "trans children are real and providing transition care improves their lives." That's groundbreaking.

Using gen ai for text and asset placeholders is not solving a problem; games have been made for decades with regular placeholders. studios using AI this way are just testing the water to see what more they can get away with - which will inevitably mean laying off skilled workers, to make worse games

Seconding this, also finding out Larian is using Gen AI in it's fucking planning stages has just pissed me the fuck off oh my god.

{Context: They're using it to: explore ideas, expand on internal presentations, develop concept art, and write placeholder text, Bloomberg reported.} {1/2}

There's a new episode of Suction Cup Man?! 😮

Epic Games not only didn't do Rainbow Royale this year (a Fortnite event for the LGBTQIA+) but they're also encouraging folks to play Hogwarts Legacy & now this.

Killing a skin on sight is not enough since that's literally the point of the game, just stop playing it. They know what they're doing.

I hope your surgeries go well, and that your recovery is gentle and quick 💙 we'll miss you!

RT if you also wish ill upon JK Rowling.
