funny how alleged authors who use AI covers still expect people to care about their writing. if they see nothing wrong with devaluing one creative form why would i assume they would stop there? and in the end they still need real human readers for validation. why not simply ask an AI for praise?

Right now the world is full of people who want to code and write and paint and film stuff and people who want to play and read and look at and watch stuff and nobody is allowed to do any of that because some unrelated third guy isn't making enough money off the deal

Our games industry is people. Our studios are people. Our teams people, our games by people for people. Our games are made by people, in groups of people, in teams of people, making people things for people. The magic is people, and the people deserve so much better than all this. I am so sorry.

What makes you think your digital games are safe? Once again, Studio Canal is pulling movie licenses. Purchases to be outright erased from libraries. It's the same that happened in 2022 and during the Funimation-Crunchyroll merger. Digital is rental! (via Twitter user somatyk)

the charcoals Hockney made in 2014, after a stroke, that show what it is to make something: you show up every day and look at it, wrestle with it, honestly. it’s in the doing. RIP to the master.

The next book from @inkle.co will be: Heaven's Vault - Book IV: The Rising Light Conclusing a story that began in 2014 as two words (Space Archaeology), grew through a 2019 game into a novel duology, and will finish as a quadrilogy of books. It is the tree, walking. 🖊️ forms.gle/QiVFkackkCNT...

A page of text posted from a WIP book. (Truncated to fit alt text.) Some day there will be a tree, with its roots planted deep into the fundament, that will grow as tall as the sky. Many trees will have come before it to allow it to grow so tall. Many lesser trees will have fallen and rotten to a pulp to feed its roots. Many creatures, perhaps all the creatures there are, will live and die and dream amongst its spreading branches. But one day, there will be such a tree — there must — and it will be as wide in canopy as it is in height, and when the strong wind blows the seeds will be carried further and beyond the horizon’s jealous imagination. Most of these seeds will fall on bare stone, or sink into the waters of the Old Sea where nothing can live and time itself does not pass. But should even one seed ever land on true soil it will take root, and should even one sapling grow, it will bud into leaf, and should even one seedpod bear fruit on this new tree then the old tree will live again, in this new place, leagues from where it began. And this new tree will know everything that was known by the old, in its bones, and it will be made from the sum of everything that came and went before and allowed that old tree to grow so tall. Thus, in this fashion, it can be said that trees can walk: down from the mountain and into the valley, out of the forest and onto the shore, and even, given enough time, across the vast reaches of the Old Sea itself.
