Chip Zdarsky's first arc of CAPTAIN AMERICA, alongside @valerioschiti.bsky.social, is a big ol' ball of dynamite. You know, in a good way. In other words, it's a damn fine read. Razor sharp work from all involved.

Human-made art and design matter!

Pinterest CEO says in layoff email: "We’re doubling down on an AI-forward approach – prioritizing AI-focused roles, teams, and ways of working"

So it's time for me to move to another platform to save images
Linkedin Post from a Pinterest designer reading: "Yesterday I was impacted by the Pinterest layoffs. I was Pinterest's only icon designer and product illustrator. In his email to the company, the CEO said "we’re doubling down on an AI-forward approach – prioritizing AI-focused roles, teams, and ways of working". I WAS working on AI projects including the Pinterest Assistant that soft-launched in October. If you haven't heard about that feature launch, you can find it on Pinterest's own newsroom or with a Google search. I was vocal internally about how our users don't want AI slop or features on the platform, how we as employees are feeling uncomfortable and discouraged about AI, and what I wanted from leadership. Last year, I told my manager I was worried about AI-based layoffs. I was told not to worry. At an onsite, we were told that "in the future", we would all be "managers of AIs". That I would be expected to manage some sort of AI employees, rather than craft and design my own work. Human-made art and design matter. I am never going to stop creating, even if the "home of inspiration" decides that creators are secondary to profits. If you want to support me, you can follow me on threads or instagram @bonniekatewolf where I post my hand-knit sweaters and oil paintings. If you want to hire a human illustrator, designer, or iconographer, my email and DMs are open for freelance, contract, or FTE roles."

Ink drawing in progress - a side profile of a tree with a still human face. The face is being kissed by a tearful woman, also in profile.

i'm just a canadian who draws monsters sometimes but just so there's no confusion in any way, i think abolishing ice and prosecuting every single one of them would be the moderate position in a just and sane world

It’s also so weird to me considering the explosion of manga readership, which is a primarily black white style. I think it’s the old heads. Just a further sign we need to be tapping into the younger audience.

Second this as both an illustrator and Art Director!! Ask for more time when you need it!

No one is going to get mad or blacklist you because you communicated your needs. Taking care of yourself IS the responsible thing to do.

Destroying your health to be able to meet deadlines is not worth it. Ask for more time. Take breaks or your body will eventually force you to when you crash!

In the 2010s, the Icelandic tv station Channel 2 accidentally added subtitles from a gritty crime drama to an episode of Teletubbies.

I have translated some of the highlights
A screenshot of Lala and Po from the teletubbies. The screenshot is clearly taken from someone's phone, as the borders of the tv can be seen, as well as glimpses into the apartment behind them. Po is in bed wrapped up in a blanket. The text below them reads "I know you were high at my mother-in-laws funeral..." More screenshots from the Teletubbies. Lala seems to be upset with a terrified Po. the text below reads "Did you kill the dog? Why would you do that?!" A third screenshot from the Teletubbies, this time the same scene as before. Po is wearing an apron while Lala seems to still be upset at him. The text below reads "You're nothing but a failure of a man."
