- Settled once and for all
- PSA: microwaves heat food, they do NOT tell the correct time! Been burned too many times 🤦
- Working remotely in a world of avatars, filters, and turned-off cameras — recognizing your coworkers in the wild feels like meeting a celebrity
- Common-sense is so uncommon these days, it’s become a misnomer.
- Entropy has reached a critical mass. It’s time to perform an exorcism on the junk drawer.
- Bluesky isn’t about escaping Musk or MAGA, it’s about reclaiming control. Control over your own feed algorithms, your own information diet. To let you block trolls, bigots, and bad-faith actors on your own terms. It’s here to let you curate your own online experience, and I’m here for it! ✊

- What’s wrong with following many accounts? I love getting a large variety of content from many interesting people. Bluesky starter packs make it easy to find people worth following within my many interests. What made you think I mass-unfollow. I’ve done no such thing 🤔
- Cats have the unique ability to make you feel loved and deeply inadequate at the same time.

- Team specific.
- Yes, 2-4 times a year. They go from Monday to Friday (first and lasts day being travel days) I find them very useful. We are fully remote, so it’s a very good way to build stronger relationships within the team, and to get alignment around vision snd path forward.
- I normally don’t post AI art here. But I just saw this, and it was so eerie and absolutely stunning (in a dreamy way) that I had to share it Creator: bit.ly/dszauder Music by: poloandpanmusic.com

- Ooh! I’m gonna have to check that out. Thanks! eternal.tv
- At the end of day, don’t we all just want a house filled with plants that we somehow remember to water?
- Fill your life with people who: - stop to pick up random litter - tip generously - frequent farmers’ markets - return their shopping carts - support their library - are kind and patient with kids - let others merge - find joy in the little things

- Elon’s positioned himself to take over Trump’s cult when Trump is dropped. MAGAts and Trump were simply useful-idiots who were used to help a small group of tech billionaires take power. Thiel’s groomed plant: JD Vance will become president. Elon will take the cult. Mark my word 😅

- Ah man, when was that? Last week the order page said to expect delivery in December… I hope they didn’t mean the following December lol 🫣
- life’s too short not to pretend your coffee is a potion that gives you +10 charisma every morning
- The best kind of friendships are built on a foundation of “I brought you a little snack.”

- They did. It’s called forgettucine. It makes you forget what you were trying to remember… which helps you remember that you forget stuff a lot… something that you had completely forgotten about.

- They are on back order, so I have to wait till sometime in December for it to actually arrive 😕
- A while back, I was messing around with giving animated gifs some depth. I clipped the top edge to create a pop out illusion, and then threw in some blurring to simulate fast focus to make the effect stronger. Does it feel like he’s poppin’ out his face for a boop?
- Traumatized designers in… 3. 2. 1. …

- It probably feels that way because content is more equally distributed. I’m getting more engagement here than I ever did on X/Twitter, with 1/3 of the followers I had there. On X, content from giant accounts would get most of the distribution, so naturally those had way more likes/comments.

- Probably the best animation Apple’s ever made:
- Clim Studio’s new identity video and website are epic🔥studioclim.com
- People who name layers. Do you use that information after naming them? …or does it just help feed your OCD goblin?
- [Not loaded yet]
- Interesting, so you navigate using the layers? I don’t even look at the names, the layers view is just useful for managing the nesting structure, and the icon tells me what type or object it is.
