The longer I'm on Blusky the more I get inside my own head and start to believe that the only way to get noticed is to get followed by that one big account.

Or maybe I just suck at what I do.

Probably the latter.

Not complaining, just life being life and getting tired of life.

92 submitted applications, 0 acceptance.
Maybe I should just join an #indie group.
Anyone know any?
I won't get accepted by them either, but I can at least try.

Whether this or any of my works become full series depend on interest on the readers.

AI is just Block Chain and NFTs all over again.
It's perceived as a net positive by companies and just like with Block Chain and NFTs, no one likes it, no one wants it and it'll just cost companies the money that the love to be thrown away.

Came up with not one, not two, but three whole multi-season projects in just one month.
I know that's hard for some folks to believe, but that really is how my head works sometimes.

The AI Dub may be down now, but I feel that this was more of a test for Amazon.
Companies are speeding up the development of AI to cut out the Human factor for profit.
I fully suspect them to return with another show using AI to test it again.

Working retail, if I had a nickel ever time I told a customer where annitemnis only for them to somehow get lost, I'd have enough nickels to buy a small #indie studio.

Sad as it may be, this nonsense was inevitable.
You should 1000% fight for your rights, but companies have been looking for any excuse to go cheaper for years now, with Unions and actors asking for more pay and then all the strikes that happened recently.
It's disgusting.

Hey just so you know Amazon decided to give us an AI ENGLISH DUB of Banana Fish instead of actually hiring real voice actors
it is fucking hot garbage
