I got to show my work at SDCC for a day in 2008 I think it was? It already felt very commercial at that point.

The artist alley was small compared to the rest, and shoved in the back corner of the venue. There wasn't much by way of pointing guests toward us. Very little foot traffic in the area.
Comic-con deciding to allow GenAi imagery in the art show —giving valuable space to GenAi users to show slop right NEXT to actual artists who worked their asses off to be there— is a disgrace!

A tone deaf decision that rewards and normalizes exploitative GenAi against artists in their own spaces!

You notice how thousands and thousands of cops aren't coming out to condemn Jonathan Ross for senselessly killing Renee Good?

This is what people mean by "all cops are bastards". If this were any other profession, the entire group would condemn it. With cops it's the reverse, they all justify it.

Keep hearing devs say that they only use ai for "pre-concept art"

There is no pre-concept art. There is concept art. That's where the idea starts. With the concept.

You're using ai for concept art.

"I think it is naive, frankly, to say that we should get rid of him because he’s a bad person," the new UK Royal Society president says of Elon Musk's membership.

The society would have expelled Isaac Newton if it made judgments on character & behaviour, Paul Nurse says.

Helpful thread.

I just reported this fundraiser and the site gave me no indication my report went through, but a quick email check showed that it did.

Check your email if the site isn't refreshing after you hit "submit".
There’s a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross’s legal expenses for murdering Renee Good.

This violates GoFundMe’s Terms of Service. Everyone must report it.

Of all platforms I shared my Art vs Artist video, Twitter been the only place where some people were actually disappointed I was black!

I screenshoted that one because it's so hilarious to me!

If you are a popular animator and make cute things, you can't be black? So Twitter 😂😭

The NBC and CNN talking heads keep calling this ICE killer "law enforcement" and one even called him "a cop" when breaking down Renee Good's murder footage. They act like ICE are the police. These are not slip-ups, because it is never corrected and it is consistent. It's deliberate, focused untruth.

Oppressed people just want to be left alone. There are no revenge plans. The obsession is not mutual.
It’s best to avoid just assuming too much of a person’s ideas comes from their upbringing, but sometimes it’s true.

Elon Musk’s tweet today absolutely grow out of his South African roots and experience. My contribution on the history of neoliberalism and those ideas is here (with another coming):
