Is it too much of a stretch to think there being a character named ‘buddy’ in coyote vs acme could be an animal man reference? Or am I going full pepe silvia

Final page of Grant Morrison’s animal man issue about the coyote where animal man is observing the coyote lying crucified on a crossroad beneath the hand of the artist

The bit in a historical drama where someone is telling the main character that history will forget them, but here I am, watching a show about them? One of the best bits you can do!

“Just like… craftsmen that were replaced by assembly line workers… we feel a profound sense of loss. We grieve that a skill, that we spent half a lifetime honing, is not being valued…anymore… We’re saddened that [this] results in lower quality work, and that a lot of people just don’t seem to care.”

Sometimes art is so breathtaking and poignant it defies all expectation

I showed my dog my iPhone 5 and she said "this is as large as a phone ever needed to be, your kind's waste is intolerable and you have turned our paradise amongst the stars into a tomb".

Not to be the guy who’s only seen boss baby but I’m literally reading House of Leaves at the same time as This Year and today’s song and especially annotation in This Year had me thinking I was reading House of Leaves again for a sec.

Photo of today’s page of This Year for the song ‘the house that dripped blood’ - “There's this famous scene in the Agamemnon of Aeschylus, the "car-pet scene," lines 783-974. Agamemnon, returning triumphant from Troy, is invited by Clytemnestra to enter his house via the red carpet which is not actually a carpet but elaborate and expensive robes spread on the floor). Agamemnon resists-"To trample ornate beauty is / For me a thing I'd be afraid to do" (tr. Andrew Wilson) —but only for a page or two, and then tramples the ornate robes right into the house of Atreus, which will devour him, because those aren't rugs or robes, they're the hungry tongues of Tantalus. The house in Tallahassee isn't a palace in Argos, but it still has an appetite. In its original draft, this was called "Blood Song," and while I'm usually not too” (page ends here)

How I am reading this year and listening to the accompanying song, which is on an iPad mini sitting on top of my copy of house of leaves

I completed a pretty small number of videogames this year, a couple I played a lot but are still in progress (hades II and death stranding II) so I can't comment yet. Probably my most played game this year was synth riders. But these are the manageably-sized mostly narrative games I finished

screenshots of the key art for: mouthwashing, citizen sleeper, kentucky route 0, emio the smiling man, slay the princess, deltarune, 1000x resist, clair obscur expedition 33, and soul of sovereignty prelude

I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.

Being extremely careful about image/video attribution isn’t JUST important for giving credit to artists and creators. It’s also a way to slightly decrease your chances of spreading deceptive AI slop!

been getting into using affinity, and the UI for vector editing is great. But when I want to open a file i created on ipad on desktop, it warns me I'll have to save it in a newer file version and it will become unusable on ipad. ehh?? should they not be keeping the 2 latest versions of it in sync?
