This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

I just woke up to the news that @indiegameawards.gg has disqualified E33 for its use of GenAI and I'm very glad to see them take this action! Hopefully this shows indie devs (looking at you, Larian) that we don't want GenAI in our games and we won't stand for it being there!

I'm pretty self-deprecating about my own art, and learning to draw has been a frustrating process for me, but holy shit never in a million years would I call artists gatekeepers. Literally every artist I know has been willing to help me because they've all been just as frustrated as me.
"art is inaccessible/artists are gatekeepers" is the biggest self report in the world that whoever is saying it is, at best, buying in to incredibly tedious learned helplessness or, more likely, is just a huge fucking loser.
I don't believe it when anyone tries to say artists are gatekeeping creativity because every artist I know is so generous. Lots of us sharing tutorials, free brushes and assets, share our manus, etc! There's no shortage of info or free tools out there if you're willing to look and learn.

there was a point when I thought that calling genAI "the aesthetics of fascism" might be a bit much, but as far as I can tell reactionary backwards-looking false consciousness nostalgia and/or the laziest corporate advertising possible is basically the overwhelming central use case for it, so...

"They look like this, ergo, they are this," is a messed up sentiment for a number of reasons, and the most disappointing when it's coming from queer people. It doesn't break the gender binary, it merely enforces it.
Automatically insisting what someone’s gender identity SHOULD be (read: should NOT could) based on how they look/act is toxic as fuck. ESPECIALLY when you’re attacking the person who fought for actual YEARS for queer rep and had their show cancelled for it.

if you think the right wing wanting marginalized and vulnerable people to stop existing is a “difference of opinion”, my opinion is you should turn around hard enough you can literally fuck yourself.
