Welcome new Blueskeeters! That is our official name, we voted on it back in June! I'm Bryan, I make #art, work in #animation and am usually the correct amount of #sad. Here's a little bit of work from a personal project

No aid entering means that the prices are going to skyrocket. These people need help now more than ever

i have managed to make a full time living as an artist from being entirely self taught, largely learning how to draw while homeless and working low wage jobs, idk maybe if you can't commit to doing that, what that really means is you don't really want to make something

AHHH! real meghan!! 나영지 🇵🇸 @ruemcclammyhand.bsky.social · 3d

if the barrier to entry to being an artist or writer is so low then just make art and write novels without AI. but you can’t do that can you.

Justin Wolfers @justinwolfers.bsky.social · 3d

There are basically only two positions in the debate about AI.
1. I’ve barely invested any time in learning how to use it effectively. AI sucks.
2. I’ve invested in learning how to use this tool. Holy cow, it’s transformational.

Position #1 has lower barriers to entry.

This is Rawida’s aunt, Dina. Rawida thought she was dead, until very recently.

The border will open soon and Rawida is trying to escape, but instead she’s asking me to post to get money to afford the medicine for her aunt. She is anemic.

It feels like a waste that ”Elon Musk” is the name of a real guy instead of a recurring comic relief background character from the Star Wars prequels whose thing is that he’s an eel alien who smells bad

Bryan Wong @theotherbryan.bsky.social · 12d

This is the part that our historical memory of decolonization always omits. It was never about the consciences of the colonizing countries being moved, an empire has no conscience. It was about them no longer having enough people to hold onto their colonies post-WW2

I'm not sure there's an industry with a worse set of incentives than journalism. Do it well you get bodyslammed by the cops until your paper gets chopped into dog food by private equity. Do it poorly and you get made the president of all news by billionaire eugenicists

Bryan Wong @theotherbryan.bsky.social · 14d

Unironically, the people who show up to fuck with ICE while dressed in inflatable suits are braver than the troops

Bryan Wong @theotherbryan.bsky.social · 14d

A reminder that no matter how much money ICE has, they don't have enough people to disappear us all. We outnumber them by a lot, they know it, and they're really hoping we don't. The immediate consequences for opposing them are a lot less than the long term consequences of letting them loose

Cristian Farias @cristianfarias.com · 14d

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Community action works.

Rodney Taylor still needs our help!

He’s still locked in an ICE camp.

He’s still going without his new prosthetic legs.

He’s still facing deportation to Liberia.

He’s still having necessary disability accommodations ignored.

Please keep sharing his story. Public pressure works!

Help Rodney Taylor, a Disabled Double Amputee Being Held by ICE

Rodney has been in the country more than 40 years. He's in solitary confinement in Georgia, being denied disability accommodations and having his medical needs ignored. He must be released.

Ahhhh dammit, you beat me to it by like a second!

Bryan Wong @theotherbryan.bsky.social · 18d

The only reason I could think they’d cut it was that it was the one song in the movie that didn’t have Muppets in it and maybe Disney thought kids would get bored?

Bryan Wong @theotherbryan.bsky.social · 18d

Tangentially related, but a year or so back my family did our annual rewatch of A Muppet Christmas Carol, and the Disney+ version had this whole song edited out. Like, a pretty major one that showed how Scrooge’s obsession with his work drove away the one person he loved when he was younger
