the “you should love ai” line is best outlined by a recent joe rogan episode. he LOVES ai music and always tells guests this. a guest pushed back on him saying “i’ve heard ai podcasts are amazing too” and joe rogan immediately pushes back. losers love it until it comes for them

I was digging through old sketchbooks the other day and realised that there was a point, years ago, when all my drawings in them were really tight and clean. That time has very much passed, my sketches are random and messy now. I'm not sure when that changed though?

It’s so good to see the kids comics industry taking off again. Felt like for so long comics have been mainly for adults only with a focus on DC/Marvel’s people in tights. But there is so much more storytelling that can go into the comics medium and fires up the imagination of future storytellers
Why are kids getting into comics and is their timing spot on?

Japan: Politician says Nintendo is lobbying with government to push against AI
Japanese politician Satoshi Asano has revealed in a lengthy post on X that Nintendo currently lobbying with the Japanese government in a coordinated effort to push back against the threats from Artificial Intelligence. While it's not explicitly stated, it seems as though Nintendo is trying to protect their IP, which is something the Kyoto-based company has been doing for many years on a number of fronts.

I cannot tell you how many parents I met across the last few events who said that comics started their kids reading. Just comics. It’s the one thing that worked. 🫡
I’m just humbly suggesting that, should the publishing industry want to tackle the crisis in reading for pleasure rates, and we have research suggesting that there’s no crisis in reading for pleasure rates amongst children who read comics, that there’s maybe a relatively simple solution right here.
