a fascinating writeup on the making of a set of widely distributed IDF propaganda videos, specifically identifying assets they used. there's something incredibly unsettling about the creative ethos here. stolen assets. no actual intelligence information at all. just hubris and pure fabrication.

Jack Sapoch @jacksapoch.bsky.social · 1d

Others assets came from scans made by the Scottish Maritime Museum of their boat-building workshop which was downloaded (via @sketchfab.bsky.social) and reimagined by the IDF adornments for underground missile factories.

A new batch of Domino Club games dropped this week and I've been too sick/busy with work chaos to post much about it! Maybe that will give you a hint which, if any, of the games I contributed to... or not... 😈 domino.gallery/jams/boneyar...

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Paul McCartne, Elton John and others signed an open letter.

i'm glad i still check tumblr occasionally even if its not really a site i "Like" because every now and then they're cooking on there

tumblr post that says "Transition holds the same role in crossdressing manga that Marxism holds in all cyberpunk media" with a reply of "its the obvious answer to the primary conflict/contradiction in the story, but the author either refuses or engage with it as a possibility or only engages to the extent of treating the possibility as absurd or a joke?"
