formal proposal of a replacement for the vince mcmahon meme format

a series of pictures of agent scully from the hit television series "the x-files" wearing glasses. each picture gradually has a slightly more serious expression and more dramatic lighting

Left this in a comment on @comicbookyeti.com’s thread, but it bears its own post. Others have addressed this, but the dissonance between “never fully remove the human from the workflow” & AI being ok for “coloring assistance, idea exploration, background generation, effects, animation” is HUGE. 1/3

2026 is a year to ORGANIZE, and we’ve got a few Slingshot planners left to help do it. While supplies last, you can save 10% on these radical planners. Plus most everything else is 10% off, AND all hardbacks are 20% off through Wednesday, December 31! be kind. stay weird. organize.

We need to hear some wins right now. Please share victories for collective action, cooperation, etc. Human artists doing great things on a small scale, communities finding their unhoused members homes, local foodways, pedestrian & bike friendly projects, strange guerrilla art, moments of joy.

This is why, if you're wanting to do comics, it's far more important to practice drawing comics than it is to practice drawing. The drawing comes with time and you get the time by getting opportunities to make comics, you get those opportunities by demonstrating storytelling.

re: chatgpt and suicide/psychosis, if somebody talked like that to other people in any of my peer support groups they would be banned instantly. a healthcare or psychiatric provider who did so would be stripped of their licensing. a crisis hotline would be sued into oblivion. shut it the fuck down

Hello. I wrote a nice long essay about AI and this very strange moment where we're constantly told we're living in the dawn of a strange new future but the only thing that's actually clear is that everyone feels pretty unmoored and uncertain. I hope you'll read it
