Y’all I have worked so hard and beat myself up for years (decades) trying to improve… and I have. Like it’s hard for me to even let myself say that because of my stupid brain. But maybe all the more reason to say it anyway. I have improved. A lot. Onward to more work and learning. Gotta keep trying.

90% of my animation friends are unemployed. I'm on hiatus. The value of animation is proven every year. Greenlight new shows! Don't overdevelop. Don't chase trends. You can't chase trends w/ animation! It takes too long! Tell good stories. Take risks."Demon Hunters" was a risk & look how it paid off
Animation ruled streaming in 2025. Again. Nielsen data shows 'Bluey' repeated as the most-watched title across all genres, while 'KPop Demon Hunters' was the most-watched movie, and Seth MacFarlane won the inaugural Streaming Icon of the Year award.

The world is shit and very loud and tough right now and can be hard to create or think of it’s even worth it but it’s is. Art outlasts times like this and lives on past us. Keep making your art and sharing it and feeling anything at all with it and the process. Share others work and engage with them

Can we talk about good brain care practices for combating imposter syndrome? I personally try to remind myself of all the times that people I trust loved my work, I’ve collected sincere compliments from some pretty badass people, but I still struggle with it. What are some things that help you?

Well, if I *could* think, and discovered that I’d been created by thieves merely to enrich them by the exploitation of others’ stolen work, I might not feel all that loved either.
Anthropic's philosopher, Amanda Askell, says she worries that AI might not 'feel that loved' and grow up feeling 'always judged.'

Takahashi-san said, "AI learns from the past and creates data, but manga doesn't repeat what has been drawn in the past, but rather is a process of constantly thinking up new ideas. It may be that the directions are different."

The author of the novels that inspired Shin Megami Tensei and Persona says developers should take more inspiration from other media to invent new gameplay systems.
If they only take inspiration from games they'll just make the same games, he says.

Hand me a normal scene.
Me: but what if it’s a romance?
You: 😬

What a difference a supportive supervisor makes. We artists are slightly deranged, tbh. But being encouraging, appreciative + giving constructive criticism makes a huge difference. I’m not the only person who does far better work when treated well. But I keep hearing stories of abusive supervisors.

The disconnect between management and employee on AI usage is big. At the same time, CEOs are reporting they aren't seeing any revenue growth from AI.
