the Disney AI thing is kinda a resigned admission that they don't know how to make all this IP worth what they say it's worth on paper

At the end of the day it's clear that this is just another massive company looking to do what every company does, pay less
This is absolutely their hope in an investment to not need passionate animators, the thing that MADE their company
I truly hope this blows up. In their face because fuck them

It feels so grim right now with generative AI slop infecting every corner of every creative industry but it will never replace the joy and fulfillment that actual creativity brings and I'll keep saying it. So please keep making things.

I know it's difficult to be creative when we're just trying to survive. But it does matter. Whether you make things professionally or as a hobby or even if you make something that you never show to anybody. It's good for the human soul to create.
Also, congratulations everyone who made something this year. A comic, a song, a film, a novel, a painting, a poem, a short story, a sculpture, crochet, embroidery, whatever it is. In this era of slop and theft, if you *make* something you are a shining jewel and I am so grateful for you.

there are ways to make the content you want to see in the world—even of preexisting characters!—WITHOUT destroying the earth, relying on a database of stolen work, or regurgitating garbage mush “art”. it’s called fanart and fanfiction. people have been doing it since the Bible. pick up a gd pencil.

Like Musk is a dude with blood directly on his hands from his time at DOGE. He's killed literal children with his actions. And his AI declared itself mecha-hitler.
And here you are acting like he's a blue collar guy building the future of the New York skyline. Christ.

I know Time's argument is that Person of the Year isn't about being "the best" it's about being the most influential, hence people like Hitler have won, but man, that cover is doing a *lot* of editorializing in defense of these grifter assholes, and including Musk is straight up offensive.

Congress just gave $900 billion to the US military in case you were wondering if there were any repercussions for blowing up civilian ships on the high seas. Meanwhile, the FIFA peace participation trophy guy still manages to keep the Epstein list out of the headlines.

some critics will say that the writing in unbeatable is "corny" or "reminds them of life is strange" but any lesbian will tell you that seeing a prompt for pumpernickel and immediately having a character say "pumpered nickel" is the realest shit in the world.

I’m just thinking of the children’s gravestones and the pediatric hospital wards that were blocked from using art of Disney-owned characters because they claimed it was important to be highly protective of the usage of their IP.

I 100% did not expect the govt to point at banks on behalf of the adult industry. We need to leverage the hell out of this
Remember Mastercard and Visa blaming "banking partners"? If banks face repercussions their alibis could start crumbling as they get pinched between angry consumers and the feds

Holy shit. Remember the Trump debanking EO? The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency identified adult entertainment as one such industry facing unfair treatment from banks. This is huge

Writing sort of a reverse James Burnham “Managerial Revolution” where every institution you can think of is no longer dominated by bureaucrats but by whoever generates the most “engagement”
i think a (perhaps underappreciated) aspect of this whole situation is the extent to which every elite profession is filled with people who excel at drawing attention and want to be famous more than they want to do the actual job
