Depending on how much I’d get per month I’d either move to part time or quit my job altogether and then focus primarily on making art
Honest question: If everyone got Universal Basic Income, no strings attached, what would YOU do with it?

Not Chinese American and I don't want to take away from Brandon's point which is very good, but I'll always have a fondness for the animated short for the 2008 Olympics that was directed by James Hewlett of Gorillaz fame:

oh he is absolutely gonna get stolen lol
First look at the free-roaming robotic Olaf.

• He is able to meet guests & interact with them.

• Disney used a branch of AI called “reinforcement learning” to help bring Olaf to life.

• Coming to Disneyland Paris & Hong Kong Disneyland in early 2026.

When ever one of those AI bros tires to tell you that artist are gatekeeping art remember that pros, armatures, hobbyist all stopped what they where doing to provide guidance to a newbie artist over the shared experience that "this one angle is hard to draw"
The "Frieren Looking Up" Art Trend attracted some Big Names in Animation! Excited for Season 2?

at this point if you want to know the plot and ending of my comic you have to physically hunt me down and ask (but only after you answer me my riddles three)
After "film trilogy that dropped a critical plot point exclusively via timed Fortnite event" and "video game series whose story only makes sense if you're aware of the events of a canon pachinko machine", I feel like there are whole frontiers of user-hostile narrative design waiting to be explored.

the reason 101 dalmations looks like that is because disney incorporated xerography (ie early photocopying technology) into the animation process. rough pencils (by mostly male animators) were copied onto the cels so that disney could fire the (mostly female) inkers. remember that art can lie to you

i’m just gonna start assuming that anyone who still uses X is fash

there really hasn’t been any excuse for like two fucking years now and at this point willful ignorance is just endorsement
Elon Musk is very explicitly altering the X algorithm to show people content that aligns with his far-right worldview.

If you're still posting there and think you can win hearts and minds or something, this is what you're up against. You're never going to win a rigged game.
