Please I’m begging be careful what you repost. Some good tips here. Assume anything online could be AI at this point. (Especially if it’s meant to evoke a strong emotion or reaction. yes this includes cute animal photos/videos).

friendly reminder that you didn't waste your year. any moments of happiness or comfort. any small accomplishments, they all matter. this has been a really hard year, and simply surviving is something to be proud of.

This quote is rich and verbatim confirms that Iger and Disney literally don’t see artists as creatives or creators.

Being extremely careful about image/video attribution isn’t JUST important for giving credit to artists and creators. It’s also a way to slightly decrease your chances of spreading deceptive AI slop!
The thing that made me most suspicious was the lack of attribution of any kind. A conveniently perfect light-up sign at the beginning that states the premise of the video but doesn’t mention the facility, for instance. (This is part of why it’s bad to share stuff if you don’t know its provenance!)

Please understand that all your favorite million-dollar IPs were created by artists that get nothing more than a typical company paycheck. They don’t get royalties on the sales and oft aren’t even rewarded with bonuses or anything for creating such a valuable brand.
Miles Morales co-creator Sara Pichelli says she does not get any royalties from the ‘Spider-Verse’ films, Insomniac games, or merch

Artists… learn how to say thank you to a compliment, or, I would love feedback if you have any! Rather than, oh I’m awful, my art sucks.
It’s… actually not modest, it puts everyone in a weird spot when you degrade yourself, and I REALLY GET THaTS HARD!

For those who need it Extra Explained To Them: People aren’t psychic, if they don’t know you thus don’t know your behavior/speech patterns, habits/tones, then there’s no signals that you’re not being serious (Assuming they tolerate ‘Playful Rudeness’ at all SOME PEOPLE DON’T for this EXACT reason.)

Remember- artists aren’t psychic. They don’t know you blabbed to all your friends or shared it around unless all of your friends say something too!
Always and forever grateful to my friends and supporters and people for leaving comments. 💜💜💜

genuinely think we have a moral obligation to be rude & cruel to scammers and grifters. they prey on ppl's manners and politesse and inability to say no. call it when you see it even if it makes you uncomfortable. right now they are being rewarded at all time highs & they need to be shaken

I was not ready for the punch to the gut this gave me. Damn. That is SO blunt and on the nose.
I gotta laugh at this manga by Bamco being so on the nose.
Like yes, that's what you lot are like, why should we trust you.

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.
