In the meantime, Here's a little bit of what sort of thing you can probably expect on this account General drawings, character comics, worldbuilding notes - that sort of thing. Hope you enjoy!

Oh, Michael's - you always manage to disappoint, lmao Halloween decor? Already fully swapped for Christmas paintbrush wall? disorganized, depleted, expensive T-square? no. Posca pens? Not bugging the only employee to unlock cab - depleted anyway paper? $80 for 12 sheets of Arches?! glass beads? no.

I had never considered that it was possible for them to strike out in so many ways. I had so many different & basic desires and they managed to whiff on *every single one* - astonishing!

Day 18 -- Dark Water Hussars with an affinity for water often employed domesticated beasts to help them navigate the murky riverways of the deep woods, and though there were flashier options, many insisted that no better-mannered companion existed for the job than a whiskerhead carp.

Day 17 -- Roots In the somewhat treacherous footing of the forest floor toward the center of the deep woods, the trees themselves at times provided useful roadways.

Kala Paint@kalapaint.bsky.social

Kala Paint is out! I'm @olawson.bsky.social , professional artist for 15 years, then game dev, now wrote the painting software I wish I'd been using all this time. GPU-run creamy brushes, no subscription, no gen AI crap, hand-coded with ideas from artists in our Discord, and more added weekly!

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

We have reached an incredibly funny point in AI Customer Service Bullshit - they still pipe in the busy office & clacking keyboard audio to make it sound real, but the LLM openly declares itself as AI. So if it's not trying to fool anyone, they're just injecting audio annoyance for no reason, lmao.

The only good thing about AI customer service is that they usually do, ironically, get you to a live person faster & easier than robo-call trees. The first thing I say to it is "representative", and boom! We're talkin' to a real person, bby!

Rewatched Matilda with some friends the other day It's wild how "I used to think the family was cartoonishly stupid and shitty until I grew up and personally met enough people like them to realize they are completely normal" was a completely ubiquitous experience for our watch group, haha!

You know how every story has a character that's not exactly a 'villain', but is just a shitty jerk in all ways and everyone cheers when they casually get what's coming to them?? Forever vexed that there are real people who just think it's completely okay for them to be like that in life, lmao.

screaming "trans rights free Palestine fuck all recruiters tricking the young gambling is a blight and i think we will look back at it the same way we do cigarettes now" at the start of every stream to give everyone an ad-free experience

Zach Bussey 🍁@zachbussey.tos.gg

CEO Dan Clancy says Twitch now uses AI to identify streamers that may not match a brand, since it now transcribes all streams for brand safety. It won't show ads on channels or content the AI believes don't match what the advertiser is trying to achieve.

I don't think enough people who live in civilized countries understand this especially infuriating extra layer of hell with the US healthcare system.

Important extra context from an American... they deter us from using our healthcare Even *if* we get health insurance in the US, I kid you not, providers send us little pamphlets in the mail telling us to "be smart" about when to actually get medical care, or everyone's rates will go up supposedly

Finally started actually watching Blippo+ last night And so far my big takeaway is just that I want a show like Quizzards for real - where is my D&D adventure game show with triva questions to perform actions?!

What you need to understand is nothing we built was “off the shelf.” Store-bought environmental assets for stop-motion features do not exist. We were given concept art and told “make it look like this.” Everything you see here, down to the dirt and moss, was meticulously designed and crafted.
