One thing about adulthood that way too many people learn way too late (and have no choice but to learn the hard way): you have to be deliberate/proactive about everything. For the first time in your life, you can't be passive participant in anything.
This made me think maybe goose didn't make jax's avatar a cartoon rabbit just for the bit about him needing to believe they were all just cartoon characters.
That maybe its also an homage to how Bugs Bunny notoriously "crossdressed for the bit." Then unpacked years later it seemed like Bugs was just confident and actually into it. Maybe even gender indifferent or fluid. Which would be brilliant if true
If you need to partner with AI to get a greenlight on your project, it ain't worth it. I know it's super frustrating out there rn but nothing makes replacing your peers with automated garbo justified. Nothing. We gotta hold the line on this one or we're f*cked.
@rosapazl Pretty sure goose only chose that song to emphasize jax is trans. Full stop. No deeper point than that with the 'bittersweet' irony of jax not being lovely at all. 'Isn't she lovely?' no, she, trans girl, is complex and alone and dies tragically. that was the point
@OhTheSunnySide I thought the song choice was supposed to be uncomfortable and ironic. “Isn’t she lovely” no she’s actually terrible or at least not good/complex. Playing the song to emphasize jax being trans as well. Felt like that was the major point
@sorenxteru Genuine question, why is everyone interpreting Jax’s abstraction this way? Yes he isolated himself intentionally but abstraction was never portrayed as an act one can make happen by choice. Seemed more like you isolate, dissociate, then hallucinate until it just happens to you
I still think Welcome Home will get adapted into something bigger someday. I think the next insane fandom might be for KOG or GLD.
I hope creatives with exceptional ideas consider distancing themselves via persons or teams they trust once their projects starts to get as big as TADC did. For their own wellbeing.

Ok im actually bit concerned reading the comments. how many artist don’t know what resolution (dpi)and so on is.
No shaming here just surprised.
DPI refers to resolution of physical print media. Dots Per Inch (in). You may also have heard of PPI or Pixel (px) Per Inch. ⬇️⬇️
never wait until you have "better" tools to start creating. limitations feed creativity, will is might, think of all the artists drawing on their phones on the free version of ibispaint. you can do ANYTHING you set your mind to
Acting on your creative ideas is a form of self-love. It’s how you prove to yourself that your vision has value, and your inner world deserves a place in reality. It says: “I see something inside me worth bringing into the world.” Not someday. Not when it’s perfect. Now.

No shade, truly, but a lot of you only want to draw for the sake of attention.
You don’t like to be told to “draw for yourself” because you have no connection to art beyond the potential social capital it has. Art is not content.
