Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

FINALLY got around to reading vol 1 of Act-Age. The acting parts check out. Method acting does have its drawbacks, so that's focused on as a source of skill growth for the protagonist. I personally like the directions given to influence the approaches. Too bad the author did dumb things too! /why

=| I hate Holden Caulfield. Always did since my 1st reading of Catcher in the Rye. It's been a long while, so I may need to reread it if I can stomach it, but golly. I don't think he was meant to be likeable. And there're a LOT of people I know, and hate(!), who are like Holden re: "phoney-ness".

Libraries have always been cool, but I learned that one of my library cards has access to an entire manga series…!

I'm still learning how to set up world spawns consistently, but camera and even avatar positions can be set up in VNyan easily! Step 1: Set up the camera the way you want it, name it, & save it! Ideally not on 0/Default, so you can load it later. Position settings = same idea for your avatar. ...

For those unaware, SAG-AFTRA is entering it's 7th straight month of striking interactive projects for enforceable AI rights. SAG-AFTRA contracts are protected by their legal staff--I can't afford a lawyer without the union. I am only working on projects signed to a SAG-AFTRA INTERIM AGREEMENT.

;O This happened in 2014 before AI was a thing. SAG-AFTRA has been striking for ENFORCEABLE AI protections for the past... 7-ish months now? You can be an indie studio, an indie dev, or even someone with a heart of gold--The Good Ones! But things change & actors get tired. Need $ & union help!

Having deep thoughts tonight, like: I sure love _! But _ is mean. What do I do to preserve a healthy relationship with _? ex: 1) Accept the abuse/exploitation. Be happy to have _ at all. 2) Fight for the relationship to be better. 3) Quit? /iykyk

=o I heard of "skebs" for a while and finally wrapped my head around it... Short for "sketchbook" and originating from a Japanese site, it's basically: Provide Theme & Fee = Art, no takebacksies, artist decides, take it or leave it. What an interesting service style!

For the record, @kimlinhtran.com put herself in the bubble. I just fixed up the UVs and textured it for testing purposes. As soon as it was working, Kimlinh trapped herself in a vending egg. 🦁🥚

Nice to know that the US is now provoking the Canadians to sing their national anthem (in ENGLISH, in MONTREAL) with the same heart and fervor with which the Nazis caused Captain Von Trapp to sing "Edelweiss." And we said nothing good would come of a second Trump administration.
