I'm gonna need animation journalism to start following the $$$ please. Literally nothing you have to report would be as interesting as how things are financed. Those numbers tell us "the why" of a story almost every time. So if, say, someone sold out. For how much?

The animation chat has me thinking one telling thing - in the years since AI arrived, there's not been a ground-up indie phenomenon, like we saw with earlier tech (Flash, etc). It hasn't unlocked anyone's creativity. For all the anti-gatekeeping rhetroic, nothing anyone cares about has been born.

yikes :(

Instagram post from Loryn Brantz. Text reads,

I am horrified and disgusted by BuzzFeed taking my character, The Good Advice Cupcake, and giving it to an Al platform. My time at BuzzFeed was marked by continually being taken advantage of and lied to. They repeatedly assured me in good faith that they would never do anything with Cuppy without my input, yet offered me no legal options, insisting that I would never need them. The news that this character, who is based on my own personality and whom I created as a microphone to spread love and positivity, has been taken and turned into a soulless Al puppet feels like having my intestines pulled out of my body.
Somebody leaked the news to me early on that there were talks happening, and I pleaded with the CEO Jonah Peretti directly not to do it. Instead, he tried to talk me into signing an NDA. Obviously, I did not.
This is an assault on artists everywhere.
I encourage you to boycott BuzzFeed and any Al-produced or adjacent animation.

I, for one, am excited about the Machine That Grinds Humans Into Paste to bring jobs back.

When a chorus of fools tell you something is inevitable it's because they have a vested interest in profiting from it. Good ideas don't need that kind of dead-eyed rallying cry.

Go watch a bunch of movies from the 70s and notice how many people and especially journalist tell their bosses or people in power to go fuck themselves. We need that energy back on all fronts.

We cannot harm those deemed “undeserving” without also harming many who are supposedly “deserving.” These false dichotomies serve only the most wealthy/elite. MLK was on point when he said that “injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” We ignore that wisdom to our own peril.

Also, re: libraries... You should all be checking out (ha) the LIBBY app. It's a free app that allows you to get a library card through the app, check out and hold books, and even read them right on your phone. It's really helped with my doomscrolling at night-- my library even has manga! 📚

My colleagues at Zenimax QA have voted to authorize a strike. No date on if/when it'll happen. Good for them! They have the full support of everyone at Zenimax. As the first team to unionize they paved the way for the rest of us and we support them 1,000% www.theverge.com/news/640423/...

No actual strike yet, but one could come.

In animation we hear "We want the next Bluey". The cost of doing business used to be making a hundred shows to get a Spongebob. All the other shows? A lot will still make money, and the talent who worked on them could give you the next Bluey.

When I hear people describe themselves as content creators.

An older Orson Welles sitting down for an interview, but with a meme quote that says: Content, content, content! A taco possesses content. A ship's manifest. An owner's manual for the operation of a microwave. Was Botticelli a content creator? Did Joyce wreck himself in chasing English to its limits "for the vine"? My God, man; have a little self respect.

Castlevania Nocturne is so unbelievably cool. I've thought Richter and Alucard are cool as hell since I was a kid, so this season was a real treat. I need more.
