One animator put it plainly: “You have no idea how frustrating it is to see press release after press release touting how much money our animated film made and how many nominations we got; then [the studio] turns to people who have worked here forever and says, ‘We don’t need you anymore.’” Heh.

Hollywood Can’t Survive Without Animation. So Why Won’t the Industry Respect It?

Animated films made billions in 2026 while Pixar and Netflix cut jobs. Inside animation's paradox and its long shut-out from the best picture race.

The best genre films do more than entertain. They transport us into unfamiliar worlds, challenge what we think we know, and find something deeply human along the way. Explore @mattcampagna.bsky.social’s Staff Picks, a collection of crime thrillers, westerns, and stories that stay with you.

“I don’t understand why people don’t want to use this product for which the sales pitch is ‘it’s going to result in your job being eliminated, forcing you into a permanent underclass.’” I feel like this is a case where they forgot the public existed at all, and not just shareholders.

Not for nothing, but the only time we fought before, they burned the white house to the ground. Canadians in modern military history have a reputation for ruthlessness, and that's without taking "defending the homeland" into account.

Google AI search is going to be great!

A screenshot of a mobile Google search page. The search bar contains the partial query "300+140=460 is this correct? B...". Below the search tabs, an "AI Overview" section incorrectly states, "Yes, 300 + 140 = 460 is mathematically correct!" It then provides a step-by-step breakdown:
"1. Break it down by place value:
* Hundreds: 300 + 100 = 400
* Tens: 0 + 40 = 40
* Ones: 0 + 0 = 0"
