Corporate media, Youtubers, all social media influencers should refuse to show the footage. This should be completely blacklisted. This is fascism full-stop. I don’t care how good the $$ is, every single creator and media outlet has the agency and capacity to refuse to participate in this madness.

I did a quick primer about how to make seamless patterns using Krita. 1. Make all your elements in the app of your choice. A square canvas is preferable. 2. Import into Krita, SHIFT+W for wraparound mode, move your layers around as needed. Et voila~

I can't stress enough the importance of having WIPs and sketches just lying around 1, it's good for you mentally not to gear yourself towards always FINISHING something. Don't let perfection steal your joy and 2, every unfinished sketch is something you can come back to during art blocks

This (very short) paper is a good primer on the problems with Narayan's reliance on synthetic focus groups. He is spending public money to create a counterfeit of public engagement and then making decisions in that basis.

even if you have zero dollars the nicest thing you can do for an author is request that your local library buy a copy of our books every time i see that someone did this it feels so special. like, not only did they care, that made sure other people had access. it’s so kind 🥹

I don’t want this point to be lost in the discourse. Going digital-only means inequity for people who cannot afford internet or constantly purchasing new games. Libraries provide opportunities for people to experience games they otherwise wouldn’t be able to afford, and that will be lost.

Daily: " Aren't we better up here ?"

A digital painting of a moody environment, a carriage is in the middle of the composition. 3 peoples are outside it, one driving it, two other silhouettes sit on the roof.
Inside the carriage can be seen some silhouettes as well.

The mood is eery and atmospheric, almost colorless except the area where the light come from the inside of the carriage which is the only warm color in the grey scale.
