Never actually paid attention to the Steam awards this year until the results were out, and holy shit this year was beyond an absolute joke.

I mean look at this one screenshot.

You wanna tell me a literal ten year old game with a practically non-existent Hollywood scoring slop OST has better music than a literal rhythm game???

#vent post #rant #burnt bread #196 #steam awards #Stalefield getting Most Innovative is the biggest joke here though #also I will take any and all opportunities to shit on TLOU by simple virtue of me hating everything it stands for in the games industry

My growth as an artist was heavily stifled by the dogmatism in the online art community I was subjected to as a teen (aka by rhetoric implying or straight up saying art has to be made a certain way to be valuable, which discouraged me from experimenting and developing for my own methods, customising my artistic process felt illegal) and i will forever be mad about it

Anyways if any young artist follows me : the only good art advice is get weird about it and fuck around a lot. Also be honest

#sam speaks #art advice #lol #this isn’t discrediting advice that’s like pls learn the basics and here’s how to get better at anatomy #this is pointed towards those artists that act like lineart is a given in tutorials #thankfully I’ve seen more and more ppl divorce from the lineart industrial complex #also *insert rant about the internet and mainstream culture’s bias towards smooth art #and how it reveals society’s desire to forget the artist #atsv and itsv ? breeze of fresh air BECAUSE it is innovative artistic processes #and places the human feels of strokes at the center

it’s interesting to see how taylor has always imagined her ideal partner as being courageous (“headfirst fearless,” “this love is brave and wild,” “you walked in wearing a football helmet and said okay let’s talk,” “don’t blame me love made me crazy if it doesn’t you ain’t doing it right,” “standing broad-shouldered next to her was a love that was really something….”) and how i think at first she thought that joe simply being willing to be with her felt courageous but then as she grew she realized that it wasn’t enough of that feeling because he wasn’t always standing broad-shouldered next to her, only when it was convenient for him. and that’s not fearless. that’s just doing what’s easiest

#i’ve been thinking a lot recently about love languages #and how not only are there the five that everyone talks abouf #but like. for me. i experience love through excitement. i’m excited about this! and if you love me then you should be too! #and how i show others i love them is by being excited about their lives snd interests #so i’ve been thinking lately that another love language (or maybe currency) is an emotion #and i think for taylor it has always been fearlessness #because she’s SUCH an innovator. about everything #her career and her work and her personal life and the industry and and and #so i think part of love for her is the enjoyment of trying new things!! and exploring how that can improve your life! #and i think that’s what she’s talking about all those times #and also why sweet nothing is on the denial playlist. oops. #(what she originally ran home to him for was the love that made her crazy. not sweet nothing.) #ttpd #random thoughts with grace

i remember when pete first wore his skirt on stage and i saw people left and right and front and center talk shit about how ugly it was and it was such a moment for me of you lack such vision it makes me want to hit you so hard because pete’s skirt was such a sweet spot intersection of high fashion a la raf simons, ann demeulemeester, alexander wang, givenchy even, and with the layer and edge and seemingly effortless ease of NY/LA based streetwear and idk i think it deserved more applause vs being ‘just a skirt’ or pete being ‘just a dude in a skirt’ because it was intentionally styled and it was intentionally styled to compliment pete as a person, a performer, and a style icon

#people will forget that clandestine industries was designed with unisex appeal #and pete himself was saying in the 2000’s that the goal with clandestine industries was to make clothes everyone could wear #and he is really and truly one of the most zeitgeist minded artists out there #his vision has always been in innovating youth culture and making a space and mark for the outcasts #anyways

This custom-built town car represented an experiment in body styling and design by famed industrial designer Raymond Loewy, who is seen here at the wheel on February 5, 1946.

The designer expected the comfort features of the model to be adapted to standard makes in the future. Built on a standard 1942 Lincoln Continental chassis, the car is six inches lower than standard cars without loss of headroom. The Plexiglass roof over the driver’s seat could be removed in warm weather. Blue glass portholes were an innovation in the rear dome. A plastic shield, hinged to the top, could be lowered between front and rear seats. A rear spotlight was an aid in parking and maneuvering in reverse, and a blue pilot light on an antenna rod flashed to identify the car quickly in a theater or hotel queue. The exterior was in black and deep brown, without a bright chrome finish. The simplified body treatment eliminated projecting hardware.

In 1963, Loewy designed a car for Studebaker that he called the Avanti. It is one of the most sought-after cars among collectors.

Genuinely curious as to if you asked permission to use Rachel’s characters and she said yes or if you just decided Lore Olympus is popular enough to make a fan comic of and are hoping you don’t receive a cease and desist? Can anyone create a remake comic of original content and just change what you don’t like about it and it’s considered legal if you say the characters belong to the original creator? There is plenty of disappointing media out there that could be remade. I understand you cannot use their characters for profit so is just posting it ok?

Yes, anyone can, because it's called fanfiction lmao Obviously in my case the term "fan" is being used loosely here as at this point it's more like "foe"fiction LMAO but the same principles apply. Unless I try to claim LO is my own creation or make a profit off Rekindled, I should be in the clear. If legal action was taken against me then it would set a precedent against all forms of fanfiction, rewrite, redraw, etc. content around LO which are all essentially doing the same thing Rekindled is doing. I think people tend to view Rekindled as somewhat of an "exception" that's vulnerable to legal action because it's an actual weekly comic put into practice in the same playing field as LO (though they're on massively different bases obviously LOL), but there's not much more separating it from the LO redraw accounts or even the genuine fan accounts that have learned how to draw in Rachel's style (and use it to make their own LO self-inserts and whatnot). I had the time and resources and experience to do what I do through Rekindled, but every redraw, rewrite, fanfiction, etc. account are making the exact same statement I am, whether intentionally or not - "I do/don't like the canon, but/so here's what I think it would be like if it went like this".

There is definitely plenty of media out there that could be remade, and a lot of them are by the fanfiction writers out there who are filling that niche within their respective fandoms. LO is the one I want to do because it's the one that interests me and compels me the most to rewrite.

Not to mention, it's already a bold statement in and of itself to say that I'm "using Rachel's characters", a statement that likely wouldn't hold up in court LMAO Her "characters" are literally just stylized self-insert versions of public domain figures. She did not write The Hymn to Demeter. She did not create Hades, or Persephone, or Hecate, or any of the other characters she writes about. She does not own an entire religion or its deities. The only thing that she really "owns" is the licensing rights to the name "Lore Olympus", and while the style of LO is very unique and identifiable, you can't trademark/copyright a style because that uproots the entire foundation of what art is (ironically no one has had an original idea SINCE the Greeks, we all just learn and adapt our styles based on other artists that we get inspired by and learn from).

Shit, there are series completely unrelated to LO that get harassed or otherwise warned that they could cross into "legal territory" with LO just because they're Greek myth comics. Punderworld, Theia Mania, H x P Ficlets, all of these are comics that also tackle the H x P myth, and while they aren't attempting to do the same thing as Rekindled (as they exist on their own terms) it's really disappointing when I see people talk about these comics purely through the scope of Lore Olympus as if LO invented Greek myth. If WT/Rachel tried to pull rank over the story's "characters", they'd be picking a fight with every other Greek myth comic, book, movie, etc. and they oughta know that's not a fight they're gonna win lol

So everything beyond LO's branding is, in and of itself, fanfiction. Rekindled is just another level deeper by being fanfiction of a fanfiction. As long as I'm not profiting off Lore Olympus' namesake or distributing my work with the misconception that I created LO, it's legally fine. Morally, I'm sure it doesn't exactly make me a saint to do it, it definitely took a lot of hubris for me to say "yeah I don't like how you wrote your story enough that I felt the need to rewrite it completely" and I wouldn't blame anyone for thinking doing so is icky. There are certain lines I won't cross - I don't use the general LO hashtags because my content is very critical and my work isn't really for the fans, I don't encourage anyone to "show Rachel" what I do here because none of what I do here is obligated to be seen by her (and I know it wouldn't be in her best interest to see it anyways, she's literally said that she doesn't like criticism so why tf would I wanna show her a comic that exists to criticize her work lol), and I'm not planning on posting it to Webtoons because that's Rachel's territory. I don't want to overstep both in the legal sense and in the moral one. I think it's more than enough for me to just post my stuff here for the people who are seeking it, and not profit off it or directly affiliate it with LO/Rachel beyond crediting.

All that said, in a moral and legal sense, what I'm doing is literally the basis of fanfiction, and I wouldn't be going to such lengths and spending this much time every week putting out episodes every week if I never cared about LO and how it made us all feel, even if some of us don't love it as much as we used to.

#also just as some food for thought and because i couldn't find a place to fit it in the post #sonic mania ended up being one of the best games in the sonic franchise in over a decade and it was made by a sonic fangame dev #a lot of shakespeare's most beloved plays were also 'stolen' from other works #and don't get me started on the screenwriting industry #many of the books they adapt into film are completely rewritten from weaker source material or material that just won't work in movie form #obviously sometimes it's for worse and not better #but rewriting works you're dissatisfied with is an age old tradition IMO #fifty shades of grey exists and it was literally twilight fanfiction when it started LMAO #innovation is found in fandoms #i could just be haphazardly defending myself tho LOL maybe i'm just an asshole #lore olympus critical #lo critical #anti lore olympus #antiloreolympus #ask me anything #ama #anon ama #anon ask me anything #lore rekindled #lore rekindled comic #lore rekindled ama

My friend Klaus did this little art piece of Blixa, I purchased it when I had another one commissioned. I’ve always liked the inner sleeve of 1987’s Fünf auf der nach oben offenen Richterskala, so I decided to frame Young Blixa with that lyrics sleeve. I like the way it turned out!

🇺🇲 Step into the mesmerizing world of vintage advertising posters from the legendary Studebaker-Packard Corporation (USA, mid-20th century), where innovation and luxury intertwined to redefine automotive excellence.

🏭 Studebaker's journey began in 1852 as the Studebaker Brothers Manufacturing Company, crafting wagons, buggies, and carriages in South Bend, Indiana. By 1902, they boldly ventured into electric vehicles, paving the way for gasoline cars in 1904 as the "Studebaker Automobile Company."

💡 Teaming up with prestigious entities like the Garford Company and later with the E-M-F Company, Studebaker became a pioneer in automotive innovation, unveiling their fully manufactured gasoline automobiles by 1912.

🌟 Packard, founded in 1899 in Detroit, Michigan, stood as an epitome of luxury and innovation in the automotive industry. Packard vehicles were renowned for their high-quality craftsmanship and pioneering features, including the modern steering wheel and air-conditioning in a passenger car.

🚗 After World War II, Packard faced challenges against the domestic Big Three automakers but maintained its reputation for luxury and innovation.

🤝 Packard's merger with Studebaker in 1953 formed the Studebaker-Packard Corporation, intending to consolidate with American Motors Company. Despite disagreements among executives, this merger showcased the blending of two iconic brands, leaving a lasting legacy in American automotive history.
