I decided I wanted to see if Lush had something similar to an old haircare product I used to get there. I have never before been so offended by bad #UX design. My lord, it is a nightmare. It's like a social experiment.

Does anybody else roll through those #photoshop quick tip videos, not to learn, but to critique? I feel like a teacher approving student projects. "Hmm. Good job. However next time use a displacement map."

This is the project I've been pouring all of my passion into lately. If this is going to be relevant to you or someone you know, please pass it on. The aim is to help, because the industry is going to be rough soon.

I'm just digging into a side project that I already know is going to get big and unwieldy. I'm weirdly excited for that, and I can't figure out why.

It's interesting. My anxiety hasn't reduced of late, but I've had a bit of a moment where I am finding drive I had lost. I am powering through a personal project and dusting off an old hobby with real goals now. It's exciting but also confusing.

This is one of my all-time favorite movies. It's basically Clive Barker getting his cantina scene filled with wild characters.

I will. You're awesome. Thanks.

I'd love to say that's the problem, but they know they are running with a double standard. They just don't like the idea of anybody having their history being portrayed as rich as theirs has.

This looks dope, but get read for the "it's not historically accurate" brigade that came down on the Woman King. They say this then go watch Gladiator, The Patriot and Braveheart for the 500th time.

Star Citizen really messed me up. If a video game's website is too nice, I'm immediately suspicious and looking for the grift.

Aphex Twin is my greatest anxiety medication.

Studio Ghibli, the animation studio behind films like Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle.

Ha. Yes. Of course the ol' Saratoga water ... thing. Yes, I've known about it all along because i work on the internet.

They don't have room for blame, when their pockets are filled with all the credit they've taken.

I'm just now watching Mashle for the first time. I've never found any animated character attractive in a real way. I get it but not for me.

Until Margarette Macaron. I'm like, ready to give it all up.

When Jinwoo chases Beru up the tunnel and then spirals around it and appears above him... chef's kiss.

I can't wait. I started reading the webtoon, but decided I want the show to just keep me surprised. Hopefully Jinwoo smack em up on camera.

When I was in high school it was still a weird outsider thing, but my friends and I found a social loophole. At the time Wu-Tang was just becoming a thing, and we watched a ton of Shaw bros movies, and segued that into anime. Lots of FotNS, Ninja Scroll, Berserk, etc. It was cool by association.

I stopped it halfway through the episode to make sure those end credits weren't coming. I was gassssed when he pops up and says, "Exchange."

Alright, #bskydesign. All the methods to measure your seniority are bunk. There is only one accurate way to determine your experience level as a designer. How much quality work can you do when you are half asleep? This is the skill.

I will tell myself this to keep from crying. #design

I would have worn the shit out of that.

"Love your hat."
"Thanks, I'm a huge fan."
"You see the last game?"
"Game?"

I think it's a result of recent isolation, but I've had a slide show of scenes from "This is How You Lose the Time War" stuck in my head all morning.

Especially the seal getting cleaned for some reason.

It's funny, because I was the same. If a map was in the front, I passed the book on. I gave it another day in court a few years back and found new interest.

However, this one was a brilliant fantasy premise that gets spent on what amounts to a light romance novel.

I take it the Godkiller series is good? I had meant to pick it up while waiting for the next Silent Gods book to drop (which is now coming next month), but life happened. I might still have time to squeeze these in, though.
