As a producer who has had too many ill defined requests to find art outsourcers dropped on my desk, I applaud the clarity and detail of your RFP document. I'm saving this as an example of how it should be done.
I loved this game. The soundtrack and artwork gelled in such a wonderful way.
I remember daisy chaining a rat King of external drives for these to my Amiga C400e so I could play twenty-disk adventure games without constant disk swapping. The tiny, high-pitched squeals made by the matchbox sized drives sounded like a choir of possessed mice.
Hubris?
Still less of a diva than either of the Gallagher brothers.

"Hallo. I am Viktoria und I will be watching you during your stay in the DDR."
Four things do not come back: The spoken word, the spent arrow, the past life, and the neglected opportunity.
I like how the angular shape and more pronounced black trim make the helmet look more like an engineer's cap, giving the whole character a bit of a blue-collar air. Just a regular, everyday cog in the Empire's machine, doing their best, surviving on coffee and counting down the days to retirement.
Zohran Mamdani installs one bidet in his office bathroom and everyone loses their minds. But two bidets in a luxury outfitted 737 that can carry only 17 passengers is apparently completely fine and normal. The USA is so very, very cooked.
A commercial 737 can carry over 180 passengers by the way.

Except that Handsome Jack was actually capable of making some good jokes.
An art print of a black cat on a yellow background. The image is drawn from a low angle, and the cat has its tongue extended in a manner known as a blep. There is a four-character, Chinese calligraphy box in the upper left hand corner. The print is resting on a keyboard and other desktop debris.
Signing up to @tokyosexwhale.bsky.social's snail meow print club was the best idea I've had all year.
Also in a way that doesn't make your foolishness, and the epic wrath it called down upon you, a cautionary tale told to every subsequent intake of recruits for generations.
It's the expressions that make this so hilarious to me. The rabbits are caught in the headlights, while the human appears to be just a bit disgruntled about having the inconvenience visited upon them.
(expansive yet uncertain hand gestures) Comme ci comme ca?
I like them dark, I like them bright,
Your work always comes out right.

A digital poster in the style of a World War II propaganda piece. Isolaed on a yellow background, a normal, squarish, 20-something guy with glasses is sitting working on a laptop. A ghostly figure of Hitler has his arm around the guy and is grinning and shaking a fist triumphantly looking at the laptop screen. On the lid of the laptop where an apple might otherwise be is an openAI logo, bright green, and dripping green ooze down the lid. Text on the poster, in combinations of sans-serif type and brush script reads: Using Generative AI? You’re prompting with Hitler! GenAI is a Fascist Project! Try using your brain instead Don’t surrender your creativity to the tech billionaire’s control
New awareness campaign
An incredibly dapper man in a trilby, waistcoat, and cravatte carries a furled umbrella in front of three gendarmes lounging against their service vehicle.
This immaculately turned out Parisian had better turn out to be:
a) The actual jewel thief making an unassuming getaway in the ensuing chaos.
b) The gentleman detective whom the gendarmerie grudingly brought onto the case.
The reboot of the Knights Who Say Ni! took things in a much darker direction than anyone expected.

I bought my #ifixit toolkit in 2013, thinking "There's no way I will ever use some of these bits." Well this morning I had to fix the toaster, which was held shut with tri-lobe screws. Laptops, phones, monitors, now toasters...this toolkit has paid for itself tens of dozens of times.
