The markets are staying afloat right now on the hope that AI will destroy American workers. What a bleak thing.

“A big part of the high stock prices is not a reflection of high future growth,” he said. Rather, it is a sign that A.I. is expected to boost productivity and shrink employment. “The firms all think they’re going to shed a lot of labor, and that’s why the profits will be high,” he said. And while the construction of data centers to power artificial intelligence is fueling economic growth now, these centers, once built, employ skeleton staffs.

The thing about fansubs is regardless of anything else that may be going on, ultimately fansubs are made by someone who *really cares about what they're making*. That actually was true at one time at Crunchyroll. It is not true now.

and to be clear: when I say 'production companies' i'm not talking just amazon, crunchyroll, netflix, etc. etc. I'm talking Aniplex, Toho, Toei, etc. Those guys would LOVE to never hire actors, animators, writers, the whole package, ever again. theyd do it in a second if they thought it'd work!!

it cannot be overstated how much the umamusume anime revolves around the horse girls getting leg injuries and being told they may never run again. because they're based on real horses and they have glass bones. it's awesome

Yesterday was the one year anniversary of Wyvern the Kamen Rider, and it's one of the creative works I'm most proud of. Hopefully I'll find a venue to release it in a way that people will be able to actually understand what's going on, some day

A commissioned illustration for @sjbroadside.bsky.social for her fic "Terms Implied: Wyvern the Kamen Rider, Part II".
I'm really glad I could do the key art for this story, I really enjoy her character and of course her pet motorbatcly.
digital painting of Shin Wyvern the Kamen Rider standing on a coastal cliff with her bike in front of the rising sun. The bike is a dirt bike with white and purple ornamentation resembling a bat skull, ribs, and bat wings over large exhausts. Shin Wyvern is a black and orange suited hero with a combined bat/dragon motif.

Had a FANTASTIC! time drawing this recent commission. A pair of ancient time travellers, Vector Prime and his new mate, The Ninth Doctor!
Black and White drawing of Vector Prime, background, watches on admiringly as The Ninth Doctor, foreground, scans the viewer with the Sonic Screwdriver.

The thing about CrunchyRoll’s enshittification is that normally I’m a big proponent of supporting official channels but if the money from subscriptions isn’t being used to pay talent and labour and the quality suffers as a result, then morally what’s the purpose of supporting those official means?

A parody image mimicking a Papa John's pizza advertisement. The logo has been altered to read "Bopa Shon's" instead of "Papa John's." The slogan beneath the logo says, "Ingredients. Pizza. Bopa Shon’s." On the right side of the image is a man wearing a red shirt with an exaggerated, distorted face. The bottom of the image features a signature that reads "Bopa Shon."

The additional context is that Valve is still killing a beloved games studio, still tried to weasel out of making a press statement, still didn't allow a second review, and still did not communicate with the developer beyond vague references to their terms.
