A brown-orange hooded skeleton bust with glowing orange eyes, with feathered mantle and rope necklaces stares off to the left in a 3/4 turn. A golden circular token border hangs behind them. "John Latta Art" appears in an orange font A green and purple eldritch lich floats menacingly, glowing tentacles sprouting malignantly from its back. A dark robed head shot of a shattered bearded death mask revealing a glowing eye socket in a skull beneath it. A symbol of the goddess Pharasma hangs from their neck. A bust of a slavering ghoul, mouth covered in an acidic ichor.

i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao
screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

Holy effing shit. So long democracy.
Officials in Waterloo Region and other two-tier municipalities are getting signals from the Government of Ontario that changes will be made before the next municipal elections, which happen a year from now. The talk includes predictions that: The regional chair will be appointed by the province, not elected. There will be no more directly elected regional councillors after fall 2026. Only mayors will sit on regional council, and their votes would be weighted so that those representing larger populations would have more influence.

If they're refusing to make the report public, I'm going to guess it did not recommend what they're contemplating.
But in Waterloo Region’s case, there is actual research: a detailed report on municipal reform, which Ford commissioned from former Regional Chair Ken Seiling and a former deputy minister, Michael Fenn. The report was submitted to the government, but never made public. The lack of public accountability is outrageous. Ford already has far too much power. If he starts appointing regional chairs, and removing directly elected regional councillors, that would be another weakening of the rights of local voters.

Lets face it, this is a good day for oil companies, businesses, and those in the oil sector. Its a bad day for the environment and for reconciliation with Indigenous nations whose lands this thing will go over. As Blanchet stated, this is the official end of Canada's climate commitments.

RTs appreciated.

Are there any artists in the ttrpg space who does/has done art in this style? Essentially, images composed of simple geometry, solid colors.

For a game I'm working on. Paid work, of course.

Since I've started here, I've come across many awesome creators and small business owners. With the holiday shopping season here, I figured it was about damn time to finally make a Starter Pack.

Fuck Amazon. Fuck WalMart. Fuck Target. Shop small if you can.

It's been wild to see so many folks claiming they are too poor to get/make art, so they've got to steal to get things done

Like wow way to miss that your stealing is adversely affecting all the other poor folks who also need to live

No one's entitled to the work of another it's just that simple

Once I'm better (hopefully THIS week), I have a couple of projects to return to - two client comms- one exclusive, the other non-exclusive- and the other a big personal project I've had to let slide for a while. This is the state it's in now:
