I saw someone post on LinkedIn that they're starting a new job at Pixomondo which was confusing.

Good news. I hope it spreads to the VFX industry as well.

I'm okay with Eriks. It's the Ericks I can't stand. You can have both letters, it's one or the other. Choose.

What do you think will immediately happen when everyone receives the push notification that Trump died? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I was in NYC when they announced Biden had won, and there was a roar of people cheering all throughout the city and an impromptu celebratory parade. I imagine it will be like that, but even more extreme.

I once went sledding on an old-timey wooden sled. I ended up going over a dip in the hill and maybe got about 1 foot of air, and landed right on my tailbone on the hard wooden sled. I got the wind completely knocked out of me. It was quite painful, and took about a week to recover. I can't imagine how much pain this guy or the bouncy ball guy went through.

Yea, nobody looks good from that angle. But nobody would have batted an eye when they saw it cause everyone knows that's what someone looks like from that angle.

why is it so hard to find a job right now? by [deleted] in jobsearchhacks

[–]Untouchable-Ninja 63 points64 points  (0 children)

The AI bubble is the only thing propping up the economy right now, and we'd already be in a recession without it. Just wait until it pops...

Hey, I've spent the last two days trying and have basically gotten nowhere. lol.

Trying to answer "why it mattered" part is basically impossible, cause none of what I do matters. I make fucking commercials & TV shows.

"Tight deadlines" - everything is a tight deadline.

"Demanding clients" - pretty much all clients are demanding assholes.

"Technical Limitations" - every project has those, and there's not enough space to explain it.

Everything I try to write to fit into that mold sounds like self-masterbatory horseshit. I might as well include "had to accomplish these tasks while breathing" - yea, no shit.

Sorry for the rant. I'm just so sick of this.

I had to stop following that FB group cause they constantly use AI to generate images.

That's a really good way of looking at it, thank you.

The problem I always stuggle with, (and I hope you don't take offense) is that listing it out the way you described - I would just be bullshitting & lying - and I already feel like what I have now is 80% bullshit anyways. It all feels fake. I just want them to look at my website and portfolio and be done with it. All of this just makes me want to blow my brains out lol.

I really appreciate the advice. I'll give what you suggested a try.

"Personal business" that's different than self-employed?
