if you're wondering why people are frustrated at this "malfoid", ie the character "malfoy" from harry potter plus "foid", the far right incel term for women, is a dog whistle character cooked up on 4chan to poke fun at trans people and their allies who vehemently reject jk rowling and harry potter

I am so proud of these personal chicken pot pies I made tonight from scratch. I am so here for cozy season.

⚔️ The mystery sword was Catzerker Clairen's, straight out of Aethermancer! You can pick her up in our Aethermancer Bundle releasing this Thursday

We, internationally, need to do exactly what the Brazilians did and lead by example with: 1) Block all far right figures/accounts 2) Never share a far right account even to dunk on them 3) Never reply to a far right account even to dunk on them Completely cut their algorithmic advantage

Eric Bauza wasn't just an incredible actor. He fought for all of us, for the preservation of art, to see that real art got to shine, even in the face of corporate greed. The importance of him using his platform and his voice for the betterment of art cannot be understated. Goodnight, sir.

Excuse me? This is terrible, I'm speechless. What the fuck is this year?

My international followers, specially followers from the US, please get informed on the blatant election meddling attempts going on in Brazil - and be aware that they may be used in your voting district next! We're doing all we can over here to pull through no matter what. Witness us.

Eden Witch Arc says "Go Support Indie!" [ twitch.tv/genc ] Support Witch Arc on kickstarter!

i think that shows like Yogi Bear and Rocky & Bullwinkle, cartoon shorts like Gerald McBoingBoing, even something like Dexter's Laboratory, the blueprint is there for economical animation that really small or single-person teams can produce. Those techniques were invented for a reason!

i'm not 100% joking either. these group project pilots where everyone passes the same $20 back and forth is just not sustainable. it's nice to have a good looking pilot, but i'd rather adopt 60's Hanna Barbera practices and actually make shows, shows that don't cost hundreds of thousands of dollars

indie animation's still in its merry melodies era but if it wants to survive, it is going to have to enter its hanna barbera era

If you can believe it, it's #PortfolioDay once again! I'm Jacob McCaw and I'm an animatior and writer whose gotten to work on a lot of great projects in indie animation! I hope to work on even more in the future! Have a great day!

Oh man, it's #PortfolioDay again? Dang, okay! I'm Chris, a multimedia designer, director, animator, and voice over artist. You may know me as the in-game announcer and events video producer for Rivals of Aether 2, but I've done work for Titmouse Inc, Metro Boomin, Johnny Cupcakes, and more. Enjoy!

I turned 34 on Saturday! Super happy and thankful for all that I have in my life. Hashtag blessed.

Hey California! Be careful this election because the big money creeps are trying to trick you (again).

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

What was once a gradual slide into autocracy has become something like free-fall. We should all be in the streets. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

off the fucking rails. a rogue government.

As much as Adobe deserves to be dunked on I really hate the whole "hey claude please copy this software for me lmao" shit that's going around right now. We don't need vibe coded adobe copies when good alternatives already exist. I hate Adobe, and I hate vibe coding.

Secondary note: I fucking love that in the middle of this huge update they also snuck in move lists and put the game on a 50% off discount because THE DEVS REMAIN GOATED and this game simply keeps getting better with every update

🔥 RIVALS 2 WORKSHOP IS FINALLY OFFICIALLY OUT! 🔥 Custom characters and items are available to play in the Steam Workshop, but that's not all. We've updated from Unreal 5.4 to 5.8, we now have a new Move List for each character, new Halloween cosmetics for Gouie and Fleet, and more! @offbrand.games

This is fantastic! Give em a follow and check out their work.

same with the AI flag in the video itself, ESPECIALLY for music

Something AI is responsible for that doesn't get enough talk: How, when it scrapes a website to illegally steal everything on it, it uses up a ton of its bandwidth allotment, crashing it or racking up massive fees for site owners.

I'll be looking for animators soon to help on something I'm directing. I'm open to giving a chance even to artists who haven't participated in Japanese productions before, so if you're interested (and have a VERY good portfolio!) send me a message or post a link to your work!

If there's one thing I hate about this era of news media, it's how often I see articles with what appears to be vital information about ground-breaking scandals or data privacy that directly impacts everyone, only for them to be pay-walled. Like I understand financially why that is, but holy shit

My birthday is one week from today, and I have no idea what I want to do for it! The gears want to turn, but my head is empty!

ARCO is a GREAT movie. Now on Hulu, Disney, Kanopy…and available to rent elsewhere youtu.be/e4RrOe8IbI8?...

I am an AI doomer inasmuch as I feel strongly that AI is doomed and that it is our responsibility to accelerate that doom.

Coyote Vs Acme is available to stream now. I encourage everyone to watch it!

Hey! I'll be live with Mend, George, and special guest vocalist Lyria on Thursday to go behind the scenes for the latest Rivals of Aether 2 event trailer, MECHA MADNESS GX! Come by and take a look behind the curtain.

Act like it.

It's Saturday! 📺 Post a cartoon series that you love.

⚡Rivals of Aether 2 is 50% off on Steam for ONE week starting now!

I have had a super hard time actually sitting down and watching shows these past few years, but this week I binged a show that legitimately may be a top 5 show of all time for me. Orb: On the Movements of the Earth is a MASTERPIECE. What a profound and beautiful story. Go watch it, please.
