i learned the lesson very early that most people are not creative. but again, ai tools (and non-ai pixel art canvas tools) don't make you creative, they make you create. and a lot of what we all are creating is garbagino

For the uninitiated, these are Irish Throwing Stars, an ancient weapon wielded by St. Brigid during the 1916 Rising, striking fear into the hearts of the British, and responsible for the eventual smiting of both Cromwell and Thatcher.

extremely long shot question: do any posthardcore fans or old punk kids who grew up in or adjacent to DC remember what the Frodus song with the lyrics “We are Frodus, prepare to die” was called or what record it was on? It is literally ungooglable

Got three job rejections in one day so: I am asking for help finding a new full-stack web development job. My website/portfolio is available at casey.kolderup.org. I'm a great team member and I've worked at small startups and medium-sized companies with success working across teams and disciplines.

ok new question...anyone have a General Liability insurance co. they like for artists/illustrators?

i struggled with State Farm, previously
just toured a small artist/community org collective of studios. I've never rented studio space outside my apt., but this seems right for the cost and a cool community.

any other printers, cartoonists have advice on whether its worthwhile to have a small office of your own?

Well this barely-hinged, full-throated celebration of the very human act of creating joyous culture was WONDERFUL!

(It's also why AI will never really be a substitute for our very human culture ― we'll just become disgusted and make something new, again and again, forever).

This has brought up a question I actually don't know - when did the specific form "the fae" become so popular in English?

OED has "Faerie" going back to Spenser, "fey" as "fairylike" in 1823, and there's obviously "Morgan le Fay" from French, but can't find much for "the fae" til quite recently!

if you get to make art today, add something fucking dumb that cracks you up

that is the specific humanity in your work

everything else, no matter how necessary (and it is!! it's vital!), everything else is redundant context, it's safety

I really need playwrights to take improv or at least study it. You learn right away that two of the laziest choices you can make are (1) to bicker and (2) to talk about things that happening offstage.

I promise your particular brand of bickering about things happening offstage is not interesting.
