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.

Been told so many times to make my Magical Girl meets Roller Derby coming of age series NOT queer, & it just made me more determined to create "WHEELS & ROSES". The amount of homophobia in our current media landscape is NOT ok. Queer kiddos deserve to have their own stories.

And if you have any interest in reading Pistol Shrimp, you can get a copy at our website (link in bio) or check it out over on @comix_app or Global Comix.
Making comics isn’t cheap. There’s no pile of money waiting for you at the end of the process. Pretty much every cent you’ll earn goes back into the production. So when you see an indie comic out there, going for issue after issue, you know it’s someone who just loves comics.

I’m making a whole Movie TV Show about a Black superhero and his gay best friend (who is also a superhero) and people love it actually 🤷🏾

A Black hero with his gay best friend, imagine what the weirdos would say if Static Shock were released nowadays

kinda tired of people finally taking notice of black creatives in the wake of racist scandals alot of you guys just don't see us as human & refuse to engage in black media and art because you refuse to see yourself in black characters while black ppl have been doing it for ages

Disney just fired the man who designed the visual identity of the entire MCU.
16 years. $30 billion at the box office. And they replaced him with freelancers.
I’m going to put all of Andy Park’s contributions in the comments so you realize who this man actually is.

Marvel Studios Visual Development: 2010–2026
End of an era. I was there at the start of a team that broke the mold. 16 years, 40 films, and 15 films led as Director of Visual Development, I couldn’t be prouder of the history we made.
My journey continues…

So what they’re trying to do is dumb you down, make you dependent on ai for everything, take what was inherently yours, your intelligence, and sell it back to you.

Better make an example of the Pacers, they're always pulling this kind of shit!
Literally the only team in the entire NBA to not have a top five pick over the last 35 YEARS!, and as soon as we might get one the league shits their pants about it...
Calm your tits, Adam.
Least amount of top 10 picks in the entire NBA since 1990 and only team that hasn’t even picked top 5 in that timeframe too

This is an amazing chart. The Pacers have been to 10 Conference Finals and 2 NBA Finals while only having 4 draft picks in the top 10 in 35 years!
The Pacers have been dedicated to making trades and developing young talent, without getting a top pick for more than 3 decades. Are they not allowed to now try and get a top pick? Every other team in the NBA has done it multiple years in-a-row.

Tyrese tore his Achilles and then the Pacers were inundated by non-stop injuries. There was a 13-game losing streak, and no, they weren’t trying to lose. Can’t fathom why those circumstances should be the impetus for a new rule.

Something pretty bad would have to happen for a team to be bad enough to pick top-4 the year after making the conference finals (like a franchise player tearing their Achilles). Why should that team be double penalized?
Feb 19
Multiple sources with knowledge of Thursday's GM meeting as well as a late January Competition Committee meeting told ESPN that the following concepts have been discussed to curb tanking:
•First-round picks can be protected only top-4 or top-14
•Lottery odds freeze at the trade deadline or a later date
•No longer allowing a team to pick top 4 in consecutive years and/or after consecutive bottom-3 finishes
•Teams can’t pick top-4 the year after making conference finals
•Lottery odds allocated based on two-year records
•Lottery extended to include all play-in teams
•Flatten odds for all lottery teams

Gambling has DIRECTLY lead to:
- Players consistently getting death threats
- Serious family violence due to gambling addiction & losses
- Players being forced to go against team medical staff on minute restrictions
- Fining teams for prioritising their future
It’s a disease.

Angry gambling companies reportedly played a part in Adam Silver punishing teams for tanking, per @BenGolliver
“Over-unders are at stake. You know, player props are at stake. If coaches are just willy-nilly not playing guys the entire game, and they’re not letting people know in advance that they plan to do that, you’re going to have a lot of angry gamblers and a lot of angry gambling companies as well.”

See this is why i take offense to all of this
Siakam has played 93% of the teams games whilst playing his most minutes as a Pacer. Nembhard and Nesmith are playing career high mins, Mathurin played through injury, they signed a bunch of vets to stay afloat AND the majority of this season they've had the most games missed from injury
Shit, the franchise guy got hurt in GAME 7 OF THE FUCKING FINALS and we are talking about karma for resting guys on the second night of a B2B????
