You’ve been bestowed a great honor

Also underrated is cooking without buying the ingredients ehehe. I get to make much nicer food without draining my whole life savings for it

yoiem @yoiem.bsky.social · 07/08/2026

Quite right! I’m doing some very fun projects too

yoiem @yoiem.bsky.social · 04/08/2026

It sucks haha. But hey, maybe it’s for the best. The less social media and doom scrolling the better haha

I’m out of state for a little so while I’m here… Bluesky suuucks! Texas sucks more! I’m not giving any of these for the sake of social media when I am most certainly not a child. This is complete nonsense.

Bluesky wants my social security number, credit card, or ID

My one hope is they do a post release screening like Kpop Demon Hunters had, but I don’t think Paramount knows how to make good business decisions.

yoiem @yoiem.bsky.social · 04/07/2026

Yes do!! It’s actually really really good!

When I got to visit and tour Cartoon Saloon last year, this is what they were animating on the second floor. I am very excited to see that come full circle and can’t wait to watch Julián when it releases.

I’m glad for him. I’m sure he’s still got entirely too much going on though haha

yoiem @yoiem.bsky.social · 02/07/2026

Oh yes this is excellent. He almost sounds like a goth Zazu and we need one of those haha

Woooo! It’s great news that they didn’t just nab it!

It really shouldn’t be as hard as it is to do this

yoiem @yoiem.bsky.social · 02/07/2026

What the heck, why is the Among Us show actually this good? The humor is on point and the clues line up perfectly for the whodunnit aspect. What I wouldn’t give to write on a show like that

yoiem @yoiem.bsky.social · 02/07/2026

Everybody, go check this out and support!! It looks so glorious!

yoiem @yoiem.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

I’m finally watching season 4 of Vox Machina and maaan. Episode 9 is maybe the best of the series so far. It’s everything I love about the show.

Animated stones, chalk and scrap. This is Machini -- an incredible film by two artists from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. We've loved Machini for years. It's our honor to premiere it online for the next two weeks, and to tell its story: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/congolese-...

I always love seeing ice dragons and air dragons with feathers. It’s just too cool. Fire dragons might get a little singed unless, y’know. Magic.

I think a lot more shows should be greenlit with this mentality. Target audience? Ehhh probably that gaggle of weirdos over there? Plus myself. I’m also in the gaggle of weirdos.

I’ve been toying with the idea of writing scripts for this very thing just for the fun of it because all I could think about while watching the movie is how much more I’d like it if it was A) Animated B) A limited series instead of a movie, and C) Rated higher than PG

I’m making a scavenger hunt for my brother and his girlfriend and I am fully channeling Sam Reich while I write the clues. I can see why he loves making Game Changer so much. This is incredible.

They’re all one “I need to survive” comment from a crew member away from death. Don’t you see, the garbage machine doesn’t have such petty complaints!

What makes the greatest art of literally any kind is intentionality. Every scene, every detail, every word all has to be intentionally put there by someone. Ai can’t do anything but rob you of those choices. It tosses everything together based on what the algorithm says other people are doing.

Lmao, I don't forgive you, you knew full well about Gen AI and how its effecting the Animation Industry, aswell as how its destroying the enviroment and yet you still bought in. Not to mention your weird creepy misogynistic analogy about using Gen Ai in animation which you've yet to apologise for.

He’s gonna have to re-earn the respect from creatives he tossed away. Can he recover? I dunno. I don’t think it’ll ever be quite like it was, even if this is eventually swept away.

020

yoiem @yoiem.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

Good!! Doesn’t change how we’ll see him though. You can’t heel turn on every artist everywhere by celebrating the grift one second, then back out of it just as soon as you get backlash for it and pretend it’s all patched up perfectly.

yoiem @yoiem.bsky.social · 28/05/2026

I really don’t get it. Jorge spoke up for artists and specifically against ai for so long. It’s hitting harder than I think it should haha

Specifically the guy who calls out the worst parts of Hollywood now joining in the new shiny ai grift with such passion! It’s not looking good.

Idk guys, I think the fact that a guy synonymous with supporting creatives of all experience levels and backgrounds in the animation industry and indie who makes unapologetically personal art suddenly heel turning to become an ai sellout with a deeply concerning analogy to boot is getting to me

“Creative breakthroughs happen when visionary storytellers are given access to transformative tools”-- Actually, creative breakthroughs happen when people don't have to drink brown water from data center waste. This is not cool or accessible, this is disingenuous & disappointing.

Hey creatives: Folks will remember. If you were aggressively against AI, like Gutierrez was as recent as last year, and then suddenly turn around and go NO I GET IT NOW IT'S AMAZING as soon as you get a project with a big payday? Your peers will not forget that. You will never be trusted again.
