RISE

So Netflix is releasing this animated movie but here’s the thing - all backgrounds are done in AI. No actual BG artists were hired or credited for this work.

And here’s the kicker - I gave them too much credit. I realized that not even the AI users are credited apparently. Check this out:

“+Human”. No names, no nothing. 

I know it’s tempting, but please don’t hate-watch this thing. Numbers equal profit even if the people watching are just doing it to mock. Don’t give Netflix and other studios even more incentive to fire more animators and replace them with machines trained on their work and skill. 

Hilarously, the excuse used is ‘there aren’t enough artists’. That’s not true - there are more than enough artists, but the real issue is that no one wants to pay a living wage. Here’s a short video about the reality of animation in Japan.

The biggest winners in this equation at the end of the day are the AI infrastructure owners - owners of Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, etc. Do not feed this machine, it creates more monopolization of entire industries, raises a powerful few and dehumanizes the rest.

its 2022 and i will shove my drrr agenda up everyones throats

anyways here are my faves

This is my favorite genre of Touhou gifs. Does anybody know where these are from?

Eerie winter photoshoot, with the amazing Eriko-san modelling a superb nihongami in her natural grey hair.

I have already posted some of her photoshoots here (see 1 / 2), Eriko-san is always so refined with her silver hair she chose not to dye (if I understand correctly her haircolor is due to vitiligo, so great to see this variation represented!)

the squad!!!

I made some free-to-use Raiden stickers ! ^^ You can print it yourself with the JPG/PSD file here, whichever floats your boat.

It's nearly A5 size, just a little shorter on the height. Haven't the chance to test the colors out myself but I think it should be fine.

As noted on the image, selling/redistrubiting/editing/stealing(idk??? like aliexpress im looking at you) is prohibited and pls dont do this I just want it to be free for anyone.
