"But why is there no fandom or cultural impact" I don't know why this is so mysterious to people. Avatar is the only franchise on the list that replaces human characters with cgi cat aliens in loincloths, in a 90's airbrushed new age hippie aesthetic. It's too cringe. Fun to watch, but it's cringe

Obviously, this is amazing BUT the thing I love most, is that it's directly poking fun at the desire/fetish to overanimate overlapping action & smears.
Asking someone of James Baxter's calibre to *intentionally* do this (as well as mess up the spacing on a bounce) is funny in the nerdiest way.

I just saw someone yell “they’re just using it to generate ideas!”
And
I hate to say it
But if you work in the ART DEPARTMENT and you need a death machine stuffed with your colleagues’ work to give you ideas
Quit.

Made this fanart of Dilandau (Escaflowne)
I started this drawing as a break doodle, but it was too fun to make so I finished it.

Ngl it's a relief to find out other artists are struggling with alt text too. I only write the bare minimum. Call me a pretentious shit but it goes against my instincts to describe my art. I really dislike doing it. I learned to draw so I wouldn't HAVE to express myself in words in the first place

Living in the country ranked Happiest In The World 7 times in a row is cool because now we're getting foreigners tricked by scammers into taking massive loans to move here only to find out there's an ongoing unemployment crisis, the language is impossible to learn, and the weather sucks shit lol

When I told the hairdresser I make comics she was genuinely very perplexed that I can come up with my own stories and characters. People live in such different worlds
