ai “art” is derivative by definition and has no process behind its creation. so there’s really nothing to contemplate. I know normies love to eat sawdust in their bread, but for me it’s always going to be Empty Content

tomino describes char’s counterattack kind of as just a job. he was passionate about his story boards and disappointed where the animation didn’t translate his intentions. but then you have directors in the follow up generation,like anno, that totally honed in on those passionate moments as a kid.

char’s counterattack contains all the emotional beats i love in gundam, even if they don’t land as successfully as they do in other iterations. but that’s the kind of proto-state of what i love about it

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

NEWS: Last night, the Department of Homeland Security detained a Palestinian who helped lead the Columbia encampment. Agents told him his visa was revoked. He said he had a green card. They were confused—then said that was revoked too. His attorney demanded a warrant. Agents hung up instead.
