posting doodles I always get the feeling that they arent good enough to show people, but that thought process has held me back in life in general I think, not putting myself out there because I dont feel interesting or polished enough so thats my reasoning for posting shite on the internet 👍

Popplio arrived home safe and sound! Thank you so much @ianzell.bsky.social for the chance to adopt this sweet little pup. Easily one of the most precious things I've ever seen. I'll think of a name, and take great care of him. 🩵

I keep saying this would happen. The more hideous artificial detail and 'polish' from AI slop there is, the more people will value real human effort especially if it is obviously human made. AI slop will inherently devalue itself because it is so common.

tweet saying "Many people feel that in the age of AI, having filmmakers who will stick to "handcrafted" animation and genuine effort is both honest and far more powerful than polished yet empty productions"

My retirement plan is to live in a tall building and tell stories to passer-by’s about the time before the earth was destroyed in exchange for fifteen cents, a nail, and the shell of a great-great-great-grandfather snail

Anyone have any requests/ideas for franchises they’d like to see plushies of in the future? Making Pokémon is fun but it’s also cool to make things that don’t already have a million plushies made of them
