this being the thing that crosses the line for many rightwingers is so illustrative of how they don’t really care about anything real that actually matters. their problems are all entirely fictional

Smiling Friends started in 1971, got it

-I don't remember these tv shows/movies.

Mark Zuckerberg [standing in his normal posh living room, talking to camera]: So today I want to show you our plans... *PING* - a screen appears in the air above Zuckerberg’s wrist Mark Zuckerberg: ...for the Metaverse. Mark Zuckerberg [to his wrist-screen]: Hey Nick Nick Clegg [appearing on screen]: Hey Mark Nick Clegg: You coming to the meeting? Mark Zuckerberg: You bet! [The room transforms into digital lines] [Zuckerberg is now transported to a different place with Nick Clegg by his side. They are in the US CAPITOL during the January insurrection, anarchy unfolding all around them]. Mark Zuckerberg: Wow! Where are we, Nick? Nick Clegg: I think we’re in an insurrection! Nick Clegg: I thought I’d clicked ‘join meeting’ but I must have inadvertantly joined one of the many far right groups being promoted by our algorithm. Mark Zuckerberg: I don’t like it Nick! What should we do? Nick Clegg: Well… Nick Clegg: We could admit our tech libertarian ideals are flawed, change the algorithm which makes us billions, and build a bold new virtual world which brings humanity together rather than tearing it apart and killing democracy. Or… Nick Clegg: We could change our avatars! [They are both now changed into wacky avatars] Mark Zuckerberg: I’M A MOUSE

news that Mark Zuckerberg is winding down the Metaverse is an excuse for me to repost this, from 2021

I like the vibe a lot of the colors, shapes, and aesthetics convey. Along with the voice acting feeling so, real. Not acting, but just. Feeling like these are real people. Very awkward, but charming and endearing. The other shorts I saw have a lot of the same qualities. Also it's a great read imo.

Another animated flyer, looking forward to Erol Alkan taking to the decks for an all-nighter with a b2b appearance from Decius.

A viral dog rescue from 2016 is now immortalized with a statue in Kazakhstan. When a dog fell into the Sayran reservoir, bystanders formed a human chain to pull him to safety. The statue is a reminder of the value of unity, solidarity and collective action. 14/10 for all

fun reminder:

the reason why they make these fucking pointless "live action" remakes is because since it's "live action", the animation is considered "vfx" and not character animation, so they can pay these non-unionized satellite studios fuck-all and make a cool few million for essentially nothing

Put this craftsmanship in my blood RIGHT NOW

I was asked to give my thoughts on generative AI usage in games - here they are!

I’d put on the best talent show this town has ever seen!

...you can also shift the texture on 1 single drawing! Again, there's 5 versions here. They have different uses in different situations. Do you have a preference?

There's different ways of keeping something feeling lively even if it's still! You can re-draw the original drawing (there's 5 here)....

idk I’ve seen a bajillion kids movies where the kids parents die & let me tell you, having a convo with my kid about how anyone can die at any time & it doesn’t matter if they’re someone’s mom or dad is way harder than having a convo about how sometimes someone has two dads or whatever. And yet

I have a mac i bought new in 2020, it automatically has Music on it which you can still create playlists on and upload to the nano! These are pics of my Finder window where you can sync the ipod to your playlists, get rid of what's on there, reset it to empty, it all still works.

i still have my pink ipod nano from around 15 years ago and it still works great! no streaming subscription required either :)

pollera dancers with swords... is this anything
