Adobe is not really in the creative software business anymore. They are in the digital wealth extraction business. I wish more comics publishers would prioritize moving away from Adobe.
Adobe announced it's killing off Animate (formerly Flash), abandoning millions of artists who depend on the software while continuing its push into AI-heavy toolsets.

Adobe Ends Animate, Abandoning Millions Of Artists Amid AI Push
The sudden shutdown ends decades of workflows, jeopardizes active productions, and deepens fears that AI-first strategies are steering the industry.

One of the things bothering me about how people are responding to the Epstein files is that there are tons of conspiracies being created and spread about what’s in them, rather than people just believing the victims like they could have been doing for years now

There’s literally a straight line between Trump, Epstein, and the retaliatory lawsuits against women who came forward with allegations against celebrity men like Amber Heard and Blake Lively. They all even have the same PR folks. And yet people still refuse to see it

Mike, that line you leaned on, “God’s agents of wrath”, has been abused forever.
You pick a group, call them dangerous, quote authority, and suddenly punishment is holy. That trick was used in Europe to justify going after Jews, scripture cherry-picked to turn state violence into God’s work.

Putting on my suit and tie and going on America Erwache to describe a 234 year old basic requirement of the constitution for lawful searches and seizures as a “nonstarter.”
Rep. Mark Harris: "Some of these things are nonstarters. Having judicial warrants? To me, hat's a nonstarter. Being able to make off their mask, putting them at risk? That's a nonstarter. I would say anything that's going to hamstring the work of ICE, that's just not going to go anywhere."

The "peace talks" need to be called off until a ceasefire is agreed to. The Trump presidency and the peace talks are just agitating and encouraging Putin to destroy Ukraine.
Trump doesn't care about Ukraine. He's providing cover for Putin by giving Putin all this delay time, and giving UA nothing.

Not the MOST important thing, but I actually wonder if *Netflix* has enough money (or whatever it is Netflix seems to have infinity of) to get her to walk away and no longer be WB/HBO's albatross now... 🤔

I'm not going to QT someone who probably isn't as dumb as they sounded in an already kind-of-dumb fight; but 'every BLM organizer is dead now' is a false statement that feels both disrespectful to the ones who ARE dead and also the wider fact that POC organizers are overwhelmingly targets of danger.

A tough one to sit with--but we must--is that some people's ability to make good art in part derived from, or was protected by, the fact that they were enabling or doing terrible things. See also: We Need to Talk about Cosby doc. Even more troubling on this score: Read deep reporting on Alice Munro
"actually his stuff was very Derivative and not Original" like, you don't have to do this. it is good for us all to sit with the cognitive dissonance that a very bad person can make very good art. it is good for us to work through the moral ramifications of that.

i think about this distinction between illumination and confession all the time. there are many artists who we thought were doing the former but clearly in retro were doing the latter.
off the top of my head:

- cormac mccarthy
- woody allen
- louis ck
- polanski
- kanye

Finding out that some people's artistic output was not illumination but confession--finding that out as a person is hard enough. As a critic? Whew. Half the reason I wrote Burn It Down is so we can try to unpack how the systems cover for not just normal stress but a host of toxic & horrific patterns

Given how thoroughly the American people have rejected the cruel Republican vision of "immigration enforcement" -- with clear majorities in poll after poll insisting ICE has gone too far -- he's just lying lazily here by claiming the American people are "demanding" this
