There are endless projects are made with no information based on what the artists say is possible, but hopes and dreams, and then frustration when the impossible doesnt manifest.
Expectations of output are skewed past human capacity because of 'line go up' mentality, they think we can upgrade

Also, by the way, it's absolutely ridiculous that I'm the one that has to do the math on the labor and not the publisher. These are editors that don't have comic experience and they simply don't know what's involved... and also don't understand when I try to break it down.

I wish I'd thought sooner to explain to tradpub editors that illustrating a graphic novel is not like writing a prose novel or illustrating a picture book, a 250-page GN is actually like illustrating eight picture books.

The rise of deepfakes and AI CSAM prove public and private sectors don’t actually care about abuse, but still punish sex workers, queer people, and women under that guise. Credit cards companies and law enforcement punish consensual sex and sexuality, but ignore and therefore encourage abuse

kind of darkly funny that "gender studies" is the stereotypical "useless degree" because gender studies will help you understand a large and important chunk of the current psychosis in american life

its crazy thinking about how every decade there's a made up sex panic where adults make up something like a rainbow party or sex bracelets to scare and titillate themselves and everyone puts it on the local news but the actual child sexual abuse material machine is fine

It really cannot be emphasized enough that the Holocaust was modeled after the American campaign to displace and exterminate Indigenous people. This country drew up that blueprint.
Fascism isn’t new to the US. It’s always been here. It’s built into this country‘s DNA. Bigotry is our primary export. We just quantified and qualified it under the false title of ”freedom” because that’s what the masses here want & what (yht) ppl with guns & bibles as their personality like to hear
No kidding. I remember when our local government wanted record stores to track names of everyone buying metal records. (Maybe rap too and I’ve just forgotten?)
(Why do I remember this? A good friend of mine owned a record store, and as a new librarian I had some strong opinions, and ideas.)

TEKKONKINKREET One thing that was fun but also complicated was the large number of costume changes. Shiro had EIGHT outfits (included naked). Black also eight (not counting the Minotaur).

Woah!
Ontario passed a law starting Jan 2026 that it is illegal for companies to ghost you.
If you have interviewed for a job they are legally required to inform you if they hire someone else or close the position.
The law also requires salary transparency on listings and disclosing use of AI

Online safety is for making queer kids feel isolated and suicidal, not about stopping CSAM.
Starmer's spokesman says the reports of Grok's activity is "disturbing" but doesn't say UK Government will take any action

A dear friend is Sbux union leader through Workers United and she clued me into 3 things.
Starbucks has not signed a contract with the workers for 4 years.
Starbucks has more union violations than any other company in the US.
Shareholders are demanding they settle.
Keep boycotting.

These characters never made it into the final film, though we storyboarded, did layouts and rough animation for their scene.

As I'm sure you're aware, the fifth of January is the day of the Schnabelperchten, a creature of Austrian folklore who will check your house for cleanliness. If they decide you haven't done a good enough job, they'll slit open your belly and fill it with straw. Happy New Year..!

The one thing newer anim studios will have for sure as an advantage is that they can skip the service studio pipeline and communicate directly with their teams.
Do you know how wild it is to have a question and get an answer that doesn't take days to get back cuz it has to go prod manager emails?
