Back in ye ol' Tumblr days, I was posting Art Adams art like it was my job. Eventually, he heard about it and he and Joyce started sending me commissions and other pieces he thought I might enjoy posting. I just found the folder. wow.

Vihaan really doesn't deal well with the heat. He's a winter creature!!! I think his first summer in Ios more than once Nikandros woke up to an empty bed only to find out Vihaan had chosen to go lay on the cool floor instead of the bed

People once again need to internalize that "generative AI" is a small subset of machine learning, that machine learning is a critical tool that you cannot run a site without past a certain volume Bluesky has long since exceeded, and that it is FAR more reliable than user reporting.

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

Hey PSA to my YT people out there but Auto-Dubbing using AI is getting automatically enabled on your channel and opting out of it is buried deep in the depths of your channel.

io9: Your portrayal of Indigenous and transgender characters—like the Lnu tribe and Cordelia—stands out in a media landscape where such representation is still rare outside of series like Golden Kamuy, Skip and Loafer, and Paradise Kiss, where they’re often mishandled. What impact do you hope these characters have on expanding the narrative terrain? How do you see your storytelling challenging the ethnocentric lens that dominates much of mainstream media when it comes to that representation?

Yukimura: I did have written characters in [Vinland Saga] from a marginalized ethnic group [and] who are LGBTQ featured here. I actually wanted to portray a character with a disability in the story, too. However, because of the setting, I really couldn’t find the right place to incorporate such a character into the story. One thing I really don’t understand, though, is why do people attack such folks? Is it because they’re different? Why do they just focus on bad things about these groups and generalize them? I truly don’t understand why people do such things. I plainly feel sad when it comes to the way people treat each other.

To me, it’s quite normal for people to have uniqueness. It’s almost needless to say that we all individually have a uniqueness that might be considered different than what is the majority. For example, I grew up in an era where higher education was considered to be the most important thing in society in Japan. You almost had no paths in life outside of that structure. I actually do live outside of that structure, and I’m living perfectly fine. I really want to say that uniqueness is okay. I don’t understand why people are making those judgments to say, “This is okay, but this is not okay.”

I haven’t really thought about what this type of storytelling or character would have an impact on society at all. I’m just writing, drawing, and portraying society as I see it and what I think is normal from my eyes in the manga. If people don’t agree with that version of what I think is a normal society, then oh well. (Laughs) That’s too bad. Those people don’t have to read my manga.

Also, Makoto Yukimura said trans rights.

Something to keep an eye on: The official White House page has turned into a propaganda machine and has made a hit list on political Dems. Likely leading to more victims like Judge Goldstien, Melissa Hortman and their families. And of course no denouncing of the violence from Repub. Administration..

MONDAY.

An illustration re-interpreting the painting “Call to Arms” by Leighton. Jester and Fjord are leaving an elegant building after getting married, followed by Caleb, Essek, Beau, Yasha, Caduceus and Veth, as Kingsley stops them on the steps, seemingly telling them about something important and pointing to the side. He’s asking them to join on a new adventure or maybe fight an incoming danger. All of the Mighty Nein are dressed in very fancy clothing, Jester has a beautiful white gown with pink embroidery. Every’s face is either shocked or excited. In the background, we see various buildings, one showing the “Lavish Chateau” sign. Many NPC, guest characters and easter eggs are hidden in the image.

Tomorrow is the big day for Jester & Fjord!

Are you all ready to celebrate the wedding in perfect Mighty Nein style? I’m sure nothing will go wrong at all 😂

A reinterpretation of Leighton’s “Call to Arms”, dedicated to the bride & groom💙✨

Folks on here probably already know this but Asmongold is a part owner of Mad Mushroom games and OTK (who occasionally runs “direct” style showcases) - he’s no friend to the industry and his labels really ought to be fully shunned

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

I’m going to go tech bro here for a second on the off chance this somehow reaches a bluesky dev. Bear with me.

it can be really hard to not take user feedback personally, but it’s vital to not do that for the sake of both your community & your own mental health.

Here’s how you adapt

From "Niccolo" graduation short film (Gobelins school, France).
Inspired by Italian violinist and composer Niccolo Paganini.
And I can also feel Yoshitaka Amano's influence, clearly.
Coming October 8 on Youtube.

A digital illustration of the character Prometheus from the game Hades 2. The figure is depicted as a shirtless man whose torso is covered in bandages, with orange eyes and blue hair. The figure holds his hands apart as blue flames are summoned from within them. The flames curl around the back of his head. Additionally, there are purple flames near the bottom of the composition.
