Animator! I used to enjoy coming up with goofy profile summaries but facetiousness doesn't feel like authenticity anymore so I feel like a man without a country.

Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

my previous shitty job only ever brought in food or pizza when they fucked us over and we all knew it so this is a great sign
Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.
What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.

The call campaign is having an effect! The pressure right now is integral, if you are making calls, PLEASE KEEP CALLING. If you havent called yet or took a break, now is a GREAT time to hop on and add to the pressure!

Just saw someone claim that authors who want to be paid for their work are "class traitors" because we "only let the wealthy" read our books, and I think I need to go into the woods to scream into the night for a bit.

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.
We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

Macho Man is a robot warrior looking to fight the best of the best in the Robot World tournament. He may come off as arrogant but it's all for the spectacle of the match. He hopes to face another fighter with as much swagger as he does. Just don't be bogus about it.

Books are like the one piece of media left where you can actually vote with your dollar
I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Some of my concepts for The Butterfly and the River! Fun fact: I traced my own middle school art as the base for Nelly’s drawing (and old heads might notice I only used the default oekaki palette colors ).

I have no idea how apocryphal this is but I heard they invented a new cut of suit for Hugo Weaving in the Matrix movies and I think about it all the time
when trying on pants, do this in the store. then tell the sales associate "the menswear guy told me to do this."

Everyone wanting to write AND draw their own graphic novel needs to look at this, and plan your finances/side-gigs accordingly.
