Since Polygon is leaving it out of the headline: Epic Games partnered with The Game Awards to put money into the pocket of a bigot who uses her wealth to further the genocide of trans people through lawsuits and legislation. Every 'free' game gives money directly to JKR, and they are complicit.

"RemoveWindowsAI" is a script created by zoicware, available on GitHub, that does exactly what it says: it remove every AI feature in Windows 11. Do what you wish to do with this information. I'm sharing this because some folks are forced to use Win11 at work or other places for any reasons.
A screenshot of repo web page that reads: Title: Remove Windows Ai Why? The current 25H2 build of Windows 11 and future builds will include increasingly more AI features and components. This script aims to remove ALL of these features to improve user experience, privacy and security.

Pictures taken moments before disaster 🥴

#StarTrekLowerDecks screencap redraw because even though I only got on board during the last season, people saying usually around time of the year a new season would have aired is making me miss the show 🥺
#StarTrek #BeckettMariner #BradBoimler #lowerdecks
Star Trek: Lower Decks fanart: a screen cap redraw of the opening scene of Season 1, episode 1, where it is revealed Bradward Boimler, an ensign on the USS Cerritos is pretending to make a Captain's log in a supply closet, when he is caught in the act by Beckett Mariner, a fellow ensign and the main character of the show, as she walks in on him. The image has Boimler standing frozen in embarrassment in the dimly lit storage closet with barrels of medical supplies. His face is lit by the light of his PADD and he is backlit by the open door of the closet. Behind him, Mariner is barging in through the door laughing. She is slightly disheveled and the flap of her uniform jacket is undone. The left side of her face is illuminated by the strip of light near the closet door. The actual screen cap used for reference is pasted in a small window at the top right corner of the image.

This was a hard part of lightbox expo; animation students about to graduate would ask me how to “break into the industry” and get art jobs, and I had to tell them I didn’t break in and how important dayjobs are, and they just seemed so discouraged by that answer ☹️

Very, very few comic book creators can survive on just the money they make from comics. It is an inherently unstable job and it is only getting worse as time goes on. Don't ever be embarrassed or ashamed of needing another job so that you can keep making comics.
Not being able to make a living just from your art doesn't make you a failure as an artist, it just means you're a totally normal working artist.

I’m convinced the main reason Miyazaki films have a reputation for being “cozy” in the West is because he actually writes and animates long moments of quiet into his stories, whereas Western animated films are usually a nonstop parade of loud music, sounds, noises and neon colors.

Miyazaki: in this movie two young girls (one is a toddler) are uprooted from everything they know to start new lives near the rural hospital their mother is in; she is possibly dying of TB. Their dad works several hours away and they are largely unsupervised.

Daughter of Robin Williams, Zelda Williams 💔
zeldawilliams 20m From Create Mode •• Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want. To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough, , just so other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it. Gross. And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

It can be incredibly hard to see your progress when recovering from depression or burnout. The whole world keeps demanding certain benchmarks of you to the point that it’s easy to feel like a failure despite your hard work. Remember your progress is your own journey. Every win means something.
