Yeppppp. I’m not sure how much power they have in the client/vendor studio dynamic either but it sure makes you feel awful when they don’t have your back.

It’s like—-none of the changes are necessarily that difficult to make? But the sheer nitpicky stupidity of the notes wears ya down! Death by a thousand cuts, I tells ya (that is a doozy though I am so sorry).

I think the exec had a shaky operating knowledge of how reality works.

Laura Bifano @bifanoland.bsky.social · 16d

That's absolutely crazy-making. I'm sorry you had to go through that T__T

Lol this is giving me flashbacks. "The angle of the slide looks too steep, I'm afraid the (UNDERWATER CREATURES BTW) could hurt themselves"
"Please remove the fruit on the counter from the BG. Fruit will spoil if kept outside of the fridge".
God I could go on....

Another peel from a pleinair painting trip to Kananaskis. This one I got maybe 50% done before we got rained out. Had to finish at home.

Do it.

Search your name.

Take their money.

It’s yours anyway.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.
