Somewhere there's a person who is like "I don't have the attention span to read a 300 character skoot, give me a TikTok video" and then I'm over here like "I don't have the attention span to watch a 60 second video, give me the 300 character summary"

I really like & miss the workflow of Macs when I was in studio, the color system was helpful, mass changing file names/folder names, is there any way I can get that on Windows? Anyone have any favorite apps or something I can use? My desktop is a mess and I hope to organize all of my freelance

Podcasts are an invasive species that have entirely crowded out my other listening habits, so take this with a grain of salt: I think we've seen suggestive album covers before.

Noticed that my phone's game controller wasn't working properly. Instead of chucking it, I replaced a 15¢ ribbon cable. Works perfectly now! Thought you might enjoy seeing a crimped cable beside a fresh one.

River City Ransom is this game for me. It's fiendishly clever about how it uses the limited NES color palettes. Just look at these trees!

I'm excited that we finally get to share this! I enjoyed collaborating with the Toon Boom crew on the new feature descriptions in Storyboard Pro 25 and Harmony 25. Something we wanted to emphasize in this release was demonstrating a direct connection between new features and the work artists do.

To even mention this in a kids movie was unheard-of back then. Like it was huge. They'd do it again in box trolls, but this was the first I think I've ever actually seen be explicitly said they were gay in no uncertain terms.

So, uh... I just did a Google search which was not about homework... because I haven't been in school in decades, and I got this pop up from Google. And, like, I actually think there are ways to use AI in school properly, but this kind of advertising from Google seems... super sketchy.

There's a blurry line between building an audience to sustain your art and fuelling parasocial relationships that really mess people up, and incentives are in place to get as close to that line as possible.

For those of you who, like me, missed the news because AWN is apparently on the AI/NFT/Crypto-promoter blocklist... ANIME CLUB ANIMATED SERIES! @kcg.bsky.social is, no exxageration, one of history's greatest and most impactful artists and I cannot wait.
