This is so fun! And also achievable for everbody. Just need a camera (every phone has one) some paper, and patience. Animation at its most accessible.

Today (8/10) is the official Patlabor Day. It’s great to have most of the series back in print (or forthcoming) in North America. Hopefully someday we’ll get official releases of the stuff that hasn’t yet come out over here (all of the manga, The Next Generation, EZY).

When you buy the game because of the guy on the boxart, but they aren't actually in the game at all 😔

This madman spliced himself into a scene from INCEPTION where he tries to sell cheesecake to Leonardo DiCaprio. It’s the new Ryan Gosling Won’t Eat His Cereal.

I'm seeing more and more news outlets putting up stories with the "Yes AI is a bubble, when will it pop?" point of view, and like, irrational investor confidence is one of the things keeping it up, so, late, but good.
Got a new google scholar notification, so I go check and find this very cool poem by Wang Jibing 王计兵, the recent Lu Xun prize winner, prefacing a PhD thesis on women migrant workers and the gig economy PhD students in all disciplines: more poems in theses please, we love to see them! ✨💫

Shoshana 🏳️⚧️@shoshana.bsky.social · 2y agoThat's a weird label for a bottle of Bucky (For those who don't know, Buckfast is blackcurrant wine that's 14.8% alcohol and has 90mg of caffeine per 5oz. This bottle is the size of a can of Coke and has 210mg of caffeine compared to 32mg in a can of Coke plus the alcohol of 4 glasses of wine)
When I say that you have to be leery of who critiques your art, your life will depend on it. The wrong person giving you critique will have you fighting with your own creativity, leaving you mentally unwell. Especially if you don't have enough people around you encouraging your art
This being from an obscure fast food chain giveaway comic is great. Trying to think of the last time I could go somewhere and get a little comic meant for kids to get their gross hands all over. Disposable in the best way.
Jim Henson didn’t muppeteer a tiny green frog that was singing and playing the banjo, with rubber gloves while totally submerged underwater in a airtight aluminum tank just so you could tell me that AI is “inevitable”.
Gwen C. Katz@gwenckatz.bsky.social · 2mo agoThe Wachowski sisters didn't use 120 cameras to film one shot just so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."
the downside of believing with all your heart that a work of art could and has changed your life because of anything to do with itself instead of to do with you is that it inevitably makes that work of art more real to you than any of the people that you didn't meet through liking it

![[WHAT CAN COMICS DO BETTER THAN ANYTHING ELSE?]
CHRIS WARE: "oh, HI! —well, i'm glad you asked!"
----
COMICS can activate the reductive visual language of memory, which otherwise cripples the keenness of immediate human sense perception, into a quasi-theatrical pseudo-memory!
----
COMICS can thus be a great mechanism for accessing one's ineffably complex skein of thought, recollection and self-deceiving personal identity!
----
PLUS comics can make concrete the hidden structures, paths and shapes of life seen from the outside-in while capturing and codifying its hidden rhythms and silent musical patterns! —let's get STARTED, okay?](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ywgggewwjt7e6fwwflu7uneg/bafkreibntldcvucmydlpxp5t6bzawtie7ilsqf3wszlxk36ixuutuvk7xq)

It's very well animated too, because why the hell wouldn't it be. Given her taste, I wonder if that entire scene is Uno Nakata's work. Still in the fun process of figuring out the style of super skillful newbies like her
Only in Sparks of Tomorrow do you get a pivotal point in a character arc about freedom beyond gender roles, while at the same time they're inventing heavy metal by accident. Such a visual rollercoaster too, with deranged concepts meeting Tomomi Sato's traditionally excellent, emotive animation
Polar opposites getting to the Taira and Azuma stuff 🔥🔥
