Here's a small portion of an animated bumper I made to promote a video game from @owlcatgames.bsky.social (Blind Descent). Seeing the latest advances in generative AI and how they've invaded space, I feel lucky to have at least produced this little piece from start to finish ๐Ÿฅฒ.

A lot of people say AI isn't very good for the world and its outputs are routinely unreliable, but these haters fail to see how it's revolutionizing how we incinerate schoolchildren.

if youโ€™re cis and you donโ€™t get it this is LITERAL TORTURE

it will result in dead trans people

and with their other goal of making us โ€œsexually explicitโ€ for existing

you see the pipeline right?

we exist -> weโ€™re jailed for it -> weโ€™re tortured and die

WE NEED YOU TO STOP THIS

in 2017 a popular twitter game was to type a partial phrase then see what your phone auto-completes it with.
this proved so popular that it is now the only business model in the US.

Screenshot of the world view of White Week with a beautiful view of a sunny path in the forest. Roland, the young protagonist is on the path and is looking at an abandoned cabin. It has a little dreamy vibe.

Screenshot of a fight scene. It's a turned based combat where Yuna is facing a strange geometrical shaped creature. It has no face. The whole scene is dark and the environnement around them is starting to get corrupted with weird checkered patterns.

2025 was ICEโ€™s deadliest year in two decades. Here are the 32 people who died in custody The deaths came as the Trump administration ramped up immigration enforcement, detaining a record number of people

I know itโ€™s probably deeply annoying to see Americans go โ€œholy shit, the nakedness of thisโ€ after our history of indigenous genocide and global regime change, but what is especially scary about this is that the more recent bullshit alibis at least took some time to drum up and put into place.
