Metroidvanias are either Protestant or Catholic. Castlevania? Catholic, of course. Metroid? Protestant. Blasphemous is Catholic. Dead Cells, Protestant.
Hollow Knight is Protestant, but Hollow Knight: Silksong is Catholic. That's why people are complaining the game is hard. Cause it's Catholic now.

This guy not only took credit from my fellow Lorcana colleagues but also claimed to be an official Disney artist to inflate sales. In reality he has been black listed from the company for years after sketchy behavior.

If I had to hype ONE episode in the Brain Lords library it is this one 🐝 Shoutout to @cutemonster.bsky.social for the insanely fast editing turnaround and flexibility in getting this out in time for the pre hype. Still hard to believe we will soon be in a Post-Silksong era! Listen in while you wait!
It's another Wednesday and we have an extra relevant episode!
Do you wonder what the deal is with all the hubub surrounding Silksong? This week Kyle explains all to a nonplussed Jorge as we talk about its history, video game hype, and how Metroidvanias are doing as a genre.
Link below!

My last piece from Scott Fischer's SmArt School course I took in the spring. I was dedicated to finding a blend of rendering and my line art style and I'm pleased with the results. I hope to keep making work like this.

When I said that genAI is inherently fascist, this is what I meant -- not just that only fascists are making use of genAI, but that genAI has a specific aesthetic that is now inseparable from modern fascism.
Both genAI and fascists are anti-art, and as such they are ideologically aligned.
