Finally: AI cannot do your job, but an AI salesman can 100% convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can't do your job, and when the bubble bursts, the money-hemorrhaging "foundation models" will be shut off and we'll lose the AI that can't do your job, and you will be long gone, retrained or retired or "discouraged" and out of the labor market, and no one will do your job. AI is the asbestos we are shoveling into the walls of our society and our descendants will be digging it out for generations:

Bloquecitos logo, it has a lot of colorful tile pieces surrounding the name of the game.

Alright, I'm calling it done!

Bloquecitos is #PancitoMerge reworked to fit the theme of #FallingBlockJam

It's like Tetris with "real physics", no grid, and about merging same level pieces to make a new and bigger one, instead of making lines.

A bunch of futurey sci-fi style interface components for a game, including dialogue screens, maps, and random technical looking data visualizations

A screenshot of the still-somehow-in-progress game Keyhole, showing The Ringleader counting a bag of coins from last night's circus performance, his dialogue pointing out that there are some worthless bronze coins included. Other circus performers and attendees are in the background.

Freelance illustration gigs drying up. Ad agencies using Midjourney instead of hiring human artists. Costume design turned over to AI wholesale. Good work vanishing.

Last year = Bad.

A few small snippets of some sticker sheets, a notepad, and a vinyl sticker featuring a tiny frog holding a book, a cat reading a book, and some autumnal themed images.

Here’s a little sneaky peek of what’s coming! 🍂🍄‍🟫

it’s not perfect, but I’ve become fond of DuckDuckGo’s “exclude AI images from search” checkbox

quit your day job!!! follow your dream!!!! work really hard and alienate all your social connections!!!! retreat from the things that bring you joy!!! realize it's a lottery!!!! end up penniless and with terrible health!!!! become radicalized!!!! die!!!

your work is consistently and constantly outta this world

I art directed and did graphics on this game. I promise it's something special

My partner and I (2/4th of SNW) are both trans and attempting to leave the US (I’m also an Arab immigrant). It’s extremely expensive, so please consider buying our game/leaving it a review so that we have some sort of income when we inevitably have to make the jump and start over. Thank you.

A 4-panel illustrated journal showing a cat feeding crows in a park. Title: BEFRIENDING THE CROWS DAY 12 LOG Panel 1: 3:08 - Made sure each (16!) crow got a peanut today Panel 2: NEW! As I was leaving, a big guy circled me making a PURRRING sound! Panel 3: Reddit says it could be a sign of affection... ...or that they want ore food. Panel 4: DAY 12 SUMMARY: I think the crows LOVE me

a huge update in my adventures of Befriending The Crows: a new noise!!!!!!

moooooo, i played the demo and it is FANTASTIC. 10s across the board. no notes. even the title is perfect.

A digital drawing of some arms trying to pick up a cat but their claws are stuck in the floor so only the middle part of their body is getting lifted.

#3080 It's time for cuddles!

It’s my birthday! Rejoice! etc
All I’m gonna do is plug my game and see if we can’t get it to 200 reviews (we’re sitting at 191 rn)

LuuuUuuuuUuUuUUuuuUUuuUUuuUUuuuuuuUUUUuuUuuUUuuuUuuuuUUUuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu (1/219)

a drawing of a cat telling a.i. to "eat a shit" because there are no harsher words in the english language to convey the feeling of hatred i have for a.i.
