My first (extremely short) animated short!
- Sound on please -
My little boy came up with the story while we drew together. It is silly and contains poop. He is 3, everything is about poop
I have audio for part two, but I'm not sure my skills are up to it! 😅

@ArtStationHQ It'd be great to have the old Art Station back. I stopped using it once AI 'art' was welcomed.
I used to enter the challenges, which improved my portfolio so much I got my dream job at Unity.
I don't even bother to look at Art Station now.

Well, that was a first.
I was just contacted by some guy asking to buy a print of ‘the painting of the boy and his grandpa sitting on a wagon watching a rocket launch’…but tgat he coukdnt find it on my website.
I replied that I never painted anything matching that description, and he sent me this obviously AI-generated rip-off of ‘The Unknown Awaits’. (Second image is my original painting).
I know this gentleman meant well...he was genuinely looking for a legitimate way to get a print of an image he liked as a gift for his son...but this is going to be an interesting issue from now on.
WTF @Adobe? You are jacking up my monthly subscription, AGAIN, and saying it’s because now I have access to a bunch of AI tools I do not want?
Time to learn DaVinci, Affinity, and Toolbag.
I am so sick of this.
AI companies:
'Instead of artists, writers, and musicians getting paid for their work, what if we just take it and everyone pays us instead?'
It's really that simple.

BREAKING: MAGA world melts down as Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde calls Donald Trump out directly to his face during a sermon at the National Cathedral — urging him to find compassion and mercy.
This is the last thing Trump expected today...
"I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared. There are gay, lesbian, transgender children, Democratic, Republican, independent families — some who fear for their lives," the reverend said as Trump sat in the pews.
She said that millions of Americans "put their trust in you."
"The people who pick our crops and clean our office buildings, who labor in poultry farms and meatpacking plants, who wash the dishes after we eat in restaurants and work the night shifts in hospitals — they may not be citizens or have the proper documentation, but the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals," she added.
Destroying Republicans lies about migrants, she said that those workers "pay taxes" and are "faithful members" of American churches, mosques, synagogues, and mosques.
Appealing to empathy that Trump lacks, she said that the children of those migrants "fear their parents are going to be taken away."
"Find compassion," she added, urging him to help vulnerable people fleeing from war zones and persecution — a tall ask for a man as demonstrably anti-refugee as Trump.
Please retweet and ❤️ if you think that a real Christian president would heed the reverend's words — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.

I want to talk to you about AI and our climate.
Increased AI use could lead to:
- doubling data center electricity demand by 2026
- increased carbon emissions
- water supply shortages
- electronic waste
We are already facing a climate crisis. We can't let AI make it worse.
Twitter won't let you opt out of AI training.
They pretend to give you the option, but no matter what you do, they opt you back in. Absolutely unacceptable, it's a complete scam.
@FTC @linakhanFTC
GenAi does play a huge fucking role in Climate Change, and water shortage. Read how much water it takes for Chat GPT. We don’t need any of this shit @mattxiv
Hollywood is on fire , yet still deniers clutch at straws to blame this on anything other than the real problem – climate breakdown . I’m petitioning for a ban on fossil fuel ads to take the fight to the companies who continue to exploit our fragile planet https://t.co/Yxjx9DoYMu
Here is an easy way to start reducing your social media time. When you see any post using generative AI - Turn off the app (mayby block that account first) and do something else 😆
