An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

this part's interesting because it's easy to want to blame it on one thing, social media or genAI or w/e, but I think it's a combination of a bunch of things (including those two)
When I ask them: "What are you reading? What are you watching? What are you listening to?" Often, the answer is: nothing. Which has a direct effect on their over-use of prompts and AI, because they can't think of ideas, because they are literally not engaging with a single figurative thing.

Wow... A Memory Called Empire is really really good... Sometimes I feel like "yeah I've read and watched some really good science fiction in my lifetime" and then something new will blow my expectations out of the water

Sometimes being an artist feels like being in a consistent Oracle of Delphi state, aka huffing smoke (creative inspiration) to remain in a trance where you see visions of stuff that other people would struggle to imagine
Like dang it really takes a lot of mental effort to think through things...

might be fun to draw and design a Nirvash rolling skateboard acrylic standee next year if I get around to it... I've seen some people make rolling acrylic standees and they seem like a fun fidget toy + decoration

Happy birthday to my GOAT! He has been voicing Char Aznable since he was the tender age of 29...
Shoutout to when someone asked him if he understood Char and he basically said "No, the best I can do is assume that Char is somehow Tomino" lol

I still think about the moment in Eureka Seven where Renton and the rest of the Gekkostate gang are talking about the music they like, and none of them know why one song refers to something called "autumn"... The deep and horrifying implications about the world hit so different

I keep listening to Silver Will and I do want to play Trails in the Sky, but I'm trying not to play video games too much right now because this comic I'm working on isn't going to draw itself
