Decided to catch up on stranger things. Which I have not watched at all. (I’ve also just finished Akira volume 1 so really easy to see the knock off stuff)

I have to hide the fact I ordered this book for myself because my wife will ask why didn’t I ask for it for Christmas.

Genuinely think if we're going to continue to have access to ai chat, we need to be licensed to use it. This shit is insidious and deadly.
This is the tech companies playbook - First comes the increasing user base, and then we will see ads on ChatGPT. But ChatGPT and other AI chatbots are not like Meta and Google ->

We saw it with big tobacco, we saw it with the fossil fuels industry. When their own internal research showed the harm from their product, the defunded the research and attacked independent researchers coming to the very same conclusions.

In self-interest but also general interest, folks: Black Friday is coming up, and small publishers/independent creators will always be a better choice than megacorps.

When the sales drop, please remember that!

That’s the most Chris Achilleos that ship has ever looked to me!
Ron Cobb said that the special effects department got sick of waiting for a decision on the Nostromo and they just went in to the studio and grabbed drawings. The picture they used had the ship coloured yellow, so that's what they did.

It was resprayed but it would have been interesting.

I saw a video showing some pages for a book on inking but the persons video didn’t say what the book was. So now I need your help. Here’s some screen grabs. It looks like a reprint of an old book (and god knows I may even own a copy already!)

As well as doing a show later today, I'm sneaking in to a Character Improv class, so that should be fun.

There’s a generation coming that are going to reject the digital age and that’s partly why they want LLMs in classrooms.

Cannot praise Oink! high enough. Ridiculous, clever, brutally violent and consistently hilarious, and all for kids 💪
OINK! (1986): Brilliantly subversive kid's comic which featured strips from Charlie Brooker, Tony Husband, Frank Sidebottom, and Marc 'Lard' Riley. Caused a proper stink at the time; WH Smith eventually moved it to the top shelf!
