I barely took chances in my life, I was afraid, the one time I did my heart and soul was involved and destroyed by the other person. That person never really reflected what damage I took, rather waited for a chance to blame me. It still hurts. And I am afraid to take chances again.

The more people you call followers, the more you feel alone, since most of them are avatar faces who snap the moment you say an opinion they disagree on and you have to deal with worse than feeling "ignored".

A response to my A.I. comments:

Those who defend A.I. as a way to shortcut hard work are the same ones defending dopamines in sports, cheats in competitive games or in school exams and in general love to throw you under the bus to archive the highest goal... the outcome to become successfull is their only vision in the process.

I see in artists using A.I. a positive thing; you see who never cared for art, but just did the "unwanted hard work" for money or career reasons, they always wanted to cheat themselves to the top. They never understood "integrity". Take their "value" in creating art and telling stories not serious.

Today my danish cartoon will premiere with one episode at a danish comic and cartoon convention. My dream to finally be a bigger part of a cartoon finally came into reality.

Getting invited by Uli Meyer in London was a highlight a year ago. This year we go Cardiff and Bristol.

Why are trappers having a hideout on a harboured ship and need dogs for it? And what happened to the exposure dog next to the female dog?

That dog swam through the Springfield river.

It is always great that I can give a new brain tumor in my brain a specific movie name. Like the new one in my back brain is called Millionaire Dogs now.

It is hand drawn freestyle, no rigging or tweening.

The show I work on has a very small budget and a small team. We have 1 BG artist, one special pose/character artist/ prop designer (me), 5-6 animators/clean-up artists, one comp artist, one supervisor and one director & one producer who also do the storyboards and edits. We still push the limits.

Years ago I had the privilege designing the logo of Christel Kasselmann, one of the lead figures of aquarisic plant research world wide. She sold a lot plant books. At the 21.08 she died due to cancer... Dear Christel, I hope in heaven you can collect as many new water plants as you want. RIP.

This character is not a part of the Show. He is the mascot of the channel and of Fridags TamTam. New charcters will be revealed when the episode is revealed.

Baby Huey from 1995 is kinda a hidden Gem by some of the former Ren and Stimpy artists and future cartoony directors such as Pet Ventura or Vincent Waller. I still kinda have a love/hate relationship with the show. I enjoy the perfect character layouts, but not the concept.

It's people I don't understand... maybe it's time for me to leave. Some people are meant to be with people, and others, like me, are just different.

It says a lot that the two countries with the highest CO² pollution on this planet make fun of europeans not using air conditioners.

The mother of my girlfriend died yesterday, 3 years after her father and 4 years after my father have died. All died because of smoking. Her mother was 63, her father 71 and my father 68. Death was very rampant during our relationship. Plz forgive me if I am not very active the next days.

And even with the negative press, they still will gain enough support later to do whatever they wanna do and no matter how hard I push and promote it, the project is left to the mercy of the algorithm of the internet and the people who catch it and share it.

While my team and I work hard with a low budget, with the high change that it does not catch any attention because we are just a small country (denmark) with no high reach into the world, I have to see how people who had all the success and did movies and shows sell me and the industry out to A.I.

Good news; a good animation movie won in Cannes. The A.I. shitfest "Shitterz", sorry, "Critterz" was nearly completly ignored.

Lazyness, greed and arrogance has turned three big names to use A.I.
