I’m late to this interview with Tony Gilroy but I think his answer, about why most art is progressive, hits the nail on the head. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/05/o...

So Ted Cruz is worried the 10 year ban on state regulation for GenAi won’t make it (because it isnt related to the budget). So what does this weasel do? Trying to make funding of broadband expansion conditional to States not passing ANY GenAi laws. Call your Senators because this is BS!

Debate's tonight. Really hoping our candidates come out ready to FIGHT! #NoCuomo #RankTheSlate

Summer season begins at the ballpark This was also a Patreon prompt from CC, who wanted to see Perp in something summery. Thank you for your support! #grogart #OC #OCsky #originalcharacter

It cost me $0 to have my baby by c-section in Germany And $0 to care for that baby And $0 to heal myself faster than I did after my c-section in the USA AND THEN the insurance company paid us 80 euro bc they exceeded their yearly profit cap and were required by law to return that $ to customers

Going to the theme parks is supporting anti-trans legislation. Buying the books is supporting anti-trans legislation. Buying and playing the games is supporting anti-trans legislation. Talking up the franchise in any guise is encouraging others to fund anti-trans legislation.

I've been seeing stuff waaaay too many times on Pinterest 😔

Toon Boom just posted an official announcement on their Discord about the end of their perpetual licenses. As you can see in the emoji reactions, folks there are none too thrilled. 😬 #toonboom #toonboomharmony

My eternal procrastination in never learning Toon Boom finally pays off, time to start procrastinating to learn Blender and Grease Pencil

Resharing this because e-sims are *still* needed in Gaza and the @cartoonist.coop continues its program of artists donating work to those who donate to help allow Gazans to communicate with each other & the wider world while fighting genocide Learn more and donate thru the link in the OG post!

It's like resisting AI works 🤔

“Bluesky is dying!” The biggest news on Twitter is a bunch of transphobes celebrating a 17 year old girl killing herself. I’d rather be here than there.

"Criminalizing theft would be bad for thieves."

Well it finally happened. Someone took my art, fed it into AI, and is selling a shitty facsimile of it. I’m so tired. Worse yet my painting still hasn’t sold. So just feeling super shitty right now

Yep. This again. 🐒 #monkey #baby #digitalsketch

No, say it louder. It's absolute bullshit how Across the Spider-Verse made over $300 million in profit, yet neither Marvel nor Sony could be bothered to defray the hospital bills of the man who co-created Miguel O'Hara. Instead they left his wife and family scrambling to afford to live.

Testing out the limits of Edward Urena's Detached Facial Feature implementation. It's honestly insane how intuitive and unrestrictive this approach feels. I automated the system with #geometrynodes and am adding Grease Pencil support too to remove even more overhead #b3d

I'm looking up references for a gig and this site just has a great set of illustrations you can filter to eras or themes, and all the 1950a titles are making me laugh? No GenAI, just og paintings for sale. The last one is just great brushwork, normal title. www.illustratedgallery.com/artwork/for-...

"why doesn't Bluesky have its own Grok" well because the human users already bring up completely unrelated human rights atrocities in your mentions for no reason

OASIS DAISY! 💛🧡

‘The Day The Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie’ will stream on Max on June 27th and will premiere on HBO on June 28th at 8PM EST.

Seriously, do not buy, stream, or otherwise support of promote more Harry Potter bullshit. It is no longer theoretical - Rowling is funelling those wizard bucks into getting the law changed to actively oppress an already-vulnerable minority.

Got my invite from the Nintendo store to buy my Switch 2. Now if only I had the money for it. 🥲 Hopefully by the time I do have the money, I’ll be able to just go in the Nintendo store and buy one. 🤞

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life. Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever. Our problem isn't a lack of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

We told our life-size giant squid friend that the museum's whale is a nice, safe, baleen whale, so I think they are just about ready to join the exhibit Sneak preview for Marvelous Mollusks, scheduled to open at the Museum of the Earth on 5/30.
