It is actually really rad seeing Arnett, specifically, say this because he is an actor whose career is built on the back of animated roles. He knows what got him where he is and is actually standing up for the folks who made it.

We are in the rare and unique position where indie animation can be unique creative visions unfettered by corporate interference or IP shit

Why would you, as the fan, demand that the vision of the creator, who you claim to love, bend to your demands

It could be really bad for Discord if Californians contact the office of the Attorney General to report the potential violations of CCPA and CALOPPA citing the recent breach from a few months back where 1.5tb of user data and millions of IDs were leaked, but who can say for sure?

Just a reminder, the greatest living American historian filmmaker, Ken Burns, released a 720 min exploration of every facet of the American revolution using zero generative AI and paying for all of its assets instead of cobbling it from stolen data, then he gave it away for free on PBS this year.

I've been reading the Nausicaä manga for the first time 💙 (MS paint drawing)

Oh, the Nausicaä manga is one of my favorites!

The art in that whole series is so cool, and even seeing Miyazaki's early concepts and designs grow from that story too.

...I gotta go back and reread that now.

my hot take is that I don't think it's this website specifically that's toxic. the Circumstances are toxic and nobody really knows what to do about it so they come online and scream. and if I may offer an alternative: actually going outside and screaming feels better.

I adore the background art in Digimon Adventure. There's often a kind of pastel dreaminess - not necessarily real-life, but the way we view childhood through the lens of nostalgia. Considering the whole series revolves around a coming-of-age, summer camp experience, it's fitting.

Meet up with a friend at Guildhall, who wanted to check out this 1hr D&D session going on that night.

A very nice gentlemen comes up to us at the bar to chat and promote said event, very nice time.

After he leaves, we both go: "why does he look so familiar?"

Bartender: "That's Matthew Lillard."

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Some thoughts:
When using GenAi as a mood board you don't get sources. This means you deprive yourself from knowledge.
You generated a location? You deprived yourself of knowing more about the interesting parts of the world and why things came to be.
Generate an armor or costume? You deprived yourself on real world techniques, function, form and history.
You generated art inspirations? You deprive yourself of learning about artists from history or lock out living ones from potentially being hired.
Ethical issues of using GenAi models aside, one ends up making visuals mood boards devoid of reality and history. With it one deprives themselves from learning about our world and who is living in it, inadvertently making your work weaker, because of how detached it is from our shared human reality and history.

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things.

Here’s a blurb on what I mean:
