This is pretty incredible. A guided tour of 20 years of "control panel" displays, all actually interactive running via emulation in browser. There are even little achievements and easter eggs in each section! Lovely UI design resource.

Summer is for buying far too many plums and then forgetting about all of them, and repeating this every two weeks

If you have a fund with MC or Visa in it, I suggest calling and demanding to know what your compensation will be for the reduction in Earnings Per Share caused by cutting off income streams (:

Here’s the email I sent to Visa. Maybe you would put it differently, and maybe you should! And then maybe also take a screenshot and add it to the train!

Grimness matched only by its hilarity, for anyone who had ever been to this park lol

I’m going to make a thread about how the feds have changed their tactics here in Los Angeles because the community has forced them to adapt.

In the way Mario’s most recent character design has been hewing closer to the 80’s illustration look I think the next Zelda should try to look like this

Alright you got me — grabbed the Kei Truck one lol

The repression of trans people is not, by and large, a grassroots outpouring of hatred from the American people. It's something that's been carefully planted and tended over years by a handful of media people and their pet reporters.

lol, lmao

Hot pink chairs and benches stacked up in a protest with protesters hiding behind them as law enforcement fires upon the barricades with rubber bullets and tear gas

RIOS rios.imagines RIOS rios.imagines Images of the bright pink Civic furniture line that we designed for@grandpark_la "The Park for Everyone," being used by LA protesters stopped us in our tracks. These pieces were designed to move, adapt, welcome, connect - and now protect. We stand in solidarity with our city during moments of civic expression in support of unjust treatment, and we are reminded of why we design: for our community, diversity, and a sense of belonging.

To our friends, members, and donors: Last month, The Strong National Museum of Play learned that two of our federal grants—one from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and the other from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS)—were terminated by Executive Orders associated with shifting federal spending priorities. These sudden terminations have left the museum with an unprecedented half million-dollar shortfall for projects designed to serve children, families, researchers, and scholars—including a critical collections care initiative and a new, one-of-a-kind exhibit dedicated to exploring the history and cultural impact of game shows. If you value the power of play and the impact The Strong has in our community and beyond, we need your help now more than ever. Please consider supporting The Strong and sharing this email with others in your network. Gifts of all sizes will make a difference as we work to close this unexpected funding gap. For more than 40 years, competitive grants from the IMLS and NEH have helped The Strong develop new exhibits and initiatives. Your gift today will help support the projects impacted by these grant terminations—while also helping to ensure we can sustain core museum programs in the face of losing future federal funding opportunities. Thank you for your support during this critical time.
