Me: *pretends to throw the squeaky ball and hides it behind my back*
The terrifying, 7ft tall wolf lady not falling for it this time: 😡

AI data centers are an environmental horror. We don’t want them at all. There have been grassroots campaigns across the entire country with communities banding together to stop them from springing up.
We don’t want a bail out for AI companies, we don’t want tech execs who are creating permanent underclasses to continue doing so all with properties that don’t even belong to them. If the Democratic Party wants to sell out people’s livelihoods from beneath them, people are going to remember that.
@MattisRedacted It’s literally a just bailout by a different name. If the U.S. government is a shareholder in these companies, they have a vested interest in keeping them afloat.
It’s selling out everyone with extra steps.
Bernie was so close to making a good point.
Artificial intelligence is built on the stolen creative work of millions of people.
That’s why it should be illegal to monetize anything it spits out.
I mean yeah we all know that, but this is terrifying to see. If the U.S. government has an ownership stake in all major AI companies, they have a vested interest in not having them collapse.
Genuinely, why are we excited for the government to give them an out? They’re teetering without external support and have to pay Martin Scorsese and whatever other legacy creators will take their paychecks to keep people thinking there’s no way to reverse it.
JUST 6 DAYS LEFT TO OUR KICKSTARTER!!! Check out the #daising behind the scenes process between our animatic and the final animation! If we don’t hit $100k we’ll still aim for a more cleaned up version of the pilot~~
I have decided to drop out of the AI program at Amazon. I will not be making a Punky Duck series. Actions speak louder than words.
My intent was to showcase artists, both new and seasoned, both inside and outside the studios, driving this new tech.
My sincerest apology to those I upset. I promise to do better moving forward. Thank you for your patience with me. I will try harder.
This is beautifully put, because it’s hard to convey that while you wouldn’t wish the work of coordinating and running a studio or agency on your worst enemy, there’s no feeling like overcoming the daily puzzles of it to make something strong & stable for your people and raising the bar.
Working in entertainment this long, you just find that there’s just a joy in making things better, helping other folks shine, and allowing people to create without fearing for stability. That’s the whole point of all the skills, and all the connections, and what all the work is for.

When you realize the people you love can disappear at any moment, the rest of life's problems feel so insignificant.
Love loudly. Make every second count. Spend as much time as you can with your friends. Make more memories.
That's all that really matters in the end.
SVA ( Socks Vtuber Agency ) has been such a wonderful experience so far. Everyone has been so nice and getting to know the talents and staff has been amazing.
They even let me replace the water in the water jug with cookies so now it dispenses cookies.
Growing up I wanted to be an artist, I started streaming as an artist, but after a while and a lot of burnout, I became more of a streamer than an artist. Recent streams have reminded me how much I love art and how fun it is to be creative, I want to do more art!
I WILL BE AT MOMOCON THIS YEAR! THIS SUNDAY! TOMORROW!
Sorry, I almost forgot to tweet this out. So PLEASE stop on by for a little and say hi! I will be at Kitsune Corner!
