Sending love to any fellow composers (or anyone really!) who was able to do their craft as their full-time job for awhile but had to go back to having a day job due to the state of things. This is something I constantly have a lot of weird feelings about despite actually really liking my day job!

Keep in mind that I did this as a way to help with my lack of motivation caused by my ADHD, so it’s actually ableist if you don’t reply with a pet photo. Thank you

good of example of the way that Gen Ai harms art is not through really replacing capital a Art but by replacing human slop with robo slop, and the dirty secret is that slop pays the bills and subsidizes actually good art.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt is on CNN talking about “repealing section 230” so as a reminder: repealing 230 will destroy freedom of expression as we know it. It means more censorship, suppression & mass surveillance. This is bad, don’t let a B-list actor convince you otherwise. Call your representatives!

Dude treated artists like AI treats artists now before generative AI was a thing. We were just there to create content for him to use so he could win an Emmy on our hard work.

He also exploited tons of artists with his crowdsourcing disaster called HitRECord. Refused to delete our accounts and all or work belonged to them once uploaded. Some of us got paid but with checks we couldn't cash since they were such a small amount, ect. ect.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt has also been promoting Heritage Foundation collaborator Jonathan Haidt, who promotes the trans contagion conspiracy theory (basically the internet is turning your kids trans so we need KOSA). And Joseph Gordon-Levitt is selling this to liberals! www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6wR...

Hi recently there have been 2 Megans and one of them is like ok we MUST hustle a bunch to find composing work for after our current film scoring project is done because we need career momentum and also we are broke and the other is like NO we must use that energy for Divinuet. So here’s the plan:
