The way profit maxxing corpo culture has invaded every form of art through algorithms pushing people into daily posting is really weighing on me lately. Efficiency and regularity of making "content" being prized above all else feels so grim, man.

There's a cafe near me that reopened and they're clearly using AI art on their menus. Tempted to walk in and offer to illustrate them, and say they could have a little message somewhere that everything was dawn by a local artist with a link. Cool! Chic! Probably won't work!

Thought I'd be efficient and renew my TSA precheck while I was waiting for something else today but I can't remember which city in LA I was born 😅 And of course my parents aren't answering my messages 🙄 this is what I get for trying to be responsible.

The main way in which AI has negatively impacted games industry jobs is not through actual automation of those jobs or even untrue claims about automation. It's by making capital unavailable because it's tied up in AI investments while also destroying the consumer base for video game hardware.

Saw The Odyssey. Liked it more than I expected. The sound balance was really bad in a few spots, uncomfortably loud. I did have a migraine yesterday so that might've been why. Nolan either finally learned to direct action sequences better or hired a good fight choreographer and cinematographer.

I'm so cranky the previous gold standard for cintiq pen ergo grips disappeared overnight a few months ago. I needed a new one so I bought a few pen grips meant for adults with arthritis and sliced them to fit, it's 'ok' but not great. Keeps popping off. Just annoyed! I can't even find them used!
