If Carrie Fisher hadn't passed away she'd have been cast in a Knives Out movie for sure.

Once I stayed up all night drawing actual illustrations for a spot that ran nationally on short notice and I would like to tell the people who “hardly slept” because they were “writing prompts” that they are soft pathetic babies who can go to baby hell.

McDonald's has released an AI-generated Christmas ad

The studio behind it says they 'hardly slept' for several weeks while writing AI prompts and refining the shots — 'AI didn't make this film. We did'

"oh, don't forget to highlight, in bright red, the two-letter word in the tagline! the two letter word that's kind of the whole point of this clever ad campaign! the two letter word that links this show to the horror movie of the same name!"

"no problem boss. i'm on it"
an ad for the new series “welcome to derry” with the tagline “go back to where IT all began“, except somehow, they highlighted the word “to“ instead of “it“

I misread this image so badly that I can only really hope to illustrate what I saw.

( Also a good excuse for an #art study )
A digital drawing referencing the quoted image. In the style of an early 20th century drawing, a woman in a dress holds a minigun. The text above is changed to read "Does the minigun make women cruel?"

New awareness campaign
A digital poster in the style of a World War II propaganda piece. Isolaed on a yellow background, a normal, squarish, 20-something guy with glasses is sitting working on a laptop. A ghostly figure of Hitler has his arm around the guy and is grinning and shaking a fist triumphantly looking at the laptop screen. On the lid of the laptop where an apple might otherwise be is an openAI logo, bright green, and dripping green ooze down the lid. Text on the poster, in combinations of sans-serif type and brush script reads: Using Generative AI? You’re prompting with Hitler! GenAI is a Fascist Project! Try using your brain instead Don’t surrender your creativity to the tech billionaire’s control

you could not waterboard this out of me. “we didn’t understand why people use steam”

I legitimately didn't know they were competing with Steam and it's crazy to me that they burnt so much money on what sounds like something with very little (or wildly misguided) market research.

xo your friendly hunger relief comms guy
I work at a food bank—think of it like Costco. We get massive amounts of food for cheap. Whole truckloads of apples, bags of cereal, things like that. Unless you’re General Mills (thank you for your service) we don’t need your food donations. But we have a lot of buying power, so we will take your money. You buying one can of beans for a dollar doesn’t make sense when we can buy a pallet for cents a can. We provide food to food shelves—the term food shelves or pantry comes from churches who would have a small little area for parishioners to pick up food. It’s a much more advanced model now, as there are many stories of food shelves that started in church basements that now resemble grocery stores. They do their own sourcing (like picking up excess from grocery stores) and get food from food banks. They will also take your money! But each one is different—they might have room for donations. Check social media. Needs change constantly. There are lists that go around that are like “every food bank needs xyz” & that is not true. Again, they’ll get a better deal on bulk food so money is always a move! The loss of SNAP benefits is going to drive more and more folks to use their pantries and food shelves. We refer to this as the “emergency food system” but, uhhh, we are living in emergency times all the time! These systems are stressed & will be even more so. There is enough food in this country to go around. The cost is getting food where it’s needed & right now it just isn’t.

It's kinda cool that Gary Larson is doing new cartoons because he picked up a digital tablet, taught himself how to use it, and it made him love drawing again.

you can love a character and still admit when they're wrong. we love Shadow but we can acknowledge his flaws (he has none) and we can hold him accountable for his wrongdoings (he has never done anything wrong in his life) and call him out on his actions (which are always correct)

The bank app is telling me to "tap & pay like a boss😏" and "rally my crew". I am 37 years old and you are the bank. Don't talk to me this way.
