How unemployed am I? I stayed up until 3 a.m. drawing a fully rendered Extreme Dinosaurs poster based on the original VHS cover from when I was a kid.
Why did I do this? Does anyone but me remember Extreme Dinosaurs? Who can say? But I think this is pretty cool.

I know I’m super late to this meme but that’s because I’m also super late to Frieren! I watched the first couple of episodes a while back but just started binging it this week.

You can tell the song 'It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year' wasn't written in the UK because if someone told me to be of good cheer I'd instinctively become twice as Scroogely as before just out of sheer bloodymindedness.

I was told there would be much jingle bell-ing and everyone telling me be of good cheer. Quite frankly I'm relieved that this is not the case.

When I was 10 our teacher asked the class whether we thought the story of King Arthur was true or not.
I told him I didn't think it was true because wizards aren't real.
This made him inexplicably angry and I still don't really know why...

All these tech companies think we want AI, when what we really want is a way to still taste the chocolate sprinkles on a cappuccino in a takeaway cup.

This is important. Whenever they try to push the narrative that all the big companies are on board, it's BS.
I worked on a job with a major studio last month and someone tried to sneak through some AI slop. It did not go down well with the studio.

We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA.
