Comic-con deciding to allow GenAi imagery in the art show —giving valuable space to GenAi users to show slop right NEXT to actual artists who worked their asses off to be there— is a disgrace!
A tone deaf decision that rewards and normalizes exploitative GenAi against artists in their own spaces!

This is why workers need solidarity!! The more we stick together the more power we have.
It's always such a huge bummer to me when I see authors using AI to make cover art when I know they wouldn't be okay with their manuscripts being fed into AI to make and sell books.

the discourse on what jobs are acceptable to replace with generative AI reveals a lot about what we think of other people's jobs

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far
i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')

These were giant wallpapers that I worked on in 8k resolution -- super challenging, but I had a lot of fun. Just sharing a downscaled version here, of course :>

The podcast Article of Interest did a fascinating podcast episode on the zipper. It's a complicated piece of technology whose existence is new and not a given - we had plenty of other fasteners - snaps and buttons. And while YKK is now the world's largest zipper maker the zipper was invented in NJ

Lazy Nezumi Pro update 25.03.27 adds locking and other new features to the Perspective Ellipse ruler!
It also adds support for TVPaint 12, and adds a workaround for an XPPen wintab driver bug that was blocking pen input.
