I'll keep repeating it til' I'm blue in the face - making comics is actually an exceptionally difficult task. I'm quick as hell but each page I draw represents about 10-20 hours of work from writing to final output. I deserve to be paid for that work.

"Syntymän ja kuoleman kirja on valtaisan hieno. Kaunis, koskettava, älykäs, kunnianhimoinen sarjakuva. Varmuudella tämän vuoden parhaimmistoa. Se onnistuu vangitsemaan sivuilleen niin isoja asioita, että niitä on vaikea ajatellakaan yhdellä kertaa. " Kiitos Eero Laitila!

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

We are actually doing something. DON'T STOP CALLING.
Morale at paypros call centers is in the toilet right now. It’s not just normal Black Friday stress, they’re being pounded. Corporate is pressuring bosses to end the paypros call campaigns. Source familiar w/ internals at MC stressed that folks should stand their ground but be kind to agents (1)

As someone who works in the tech industry--absolutely.

They are testing the waters. These are top-down orders. The ONLY way to stop it is a visceral negative reaction. Write articles. Post your rage. Email. Post. @. All those things.

Only you have the power to kill it.
Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.

tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

🧵⬇️
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

Nykytutkimuksen mukaan sienet ovat älykkäitä: ne aistivat ympäristöään ja keskustelevat rihmastojen välityksellä sekä itsensä että muiden organismien kanssa. Rihmastoissa liikkuu nopeita sähköimpulsseja, joiden ajatellaan olevan eräänlaista ”sienten kieltä”.

They sure do. So get to it.

I fell down this rabbit hole again as I do from time to time and thought I'd try my luck. Does anyone know where I could find maybe a digitized version of the 1st edition of this book? It's usually the 2nd edition that's available online, but I'd like the 1st for research purposes and also fun.

Mulla on muuten kans nyt äärettömän paska talous, joten jos haluat originaaleja tussipiirroksia niin voin piirtää esim. Telakka Kupliiseen mennessä muutaman! Laita yksäriä että millaista haluaisit. A4-kokoa ja mustalla tussilla teen, jolla tein ton mainoskuvankin.

Erittäin neuvoteltava hinta.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

IGN is paying attention to censorship again. Use their momentum, call visa and mastercard, tell them you read the article, ask them why they're censoring legal stuff

reminder that you don't need to know specifics of what's at play. It's often better to sound like a normie

When ever one of those AI bros tires to tell you that artist are gatekeeping art remember that pros, armatures, hobbyist all stopped what they where doing to provide guidance to a newbie artist over the shared experience that "this one angle is hard to draw"
The "Frieren Looking Up" Art Trend attracted some Big Names in Animation! Excited for Season 2?
