Fully stocked for 2025 now

Dear god… it’s beautiful.

I’m trying out doing some bonus episodes here and there. This is the first of four or five I have planned for the first half of this year.

We couldn’t do one this week due to more scheduling conflicts. I promise the missing weeks will be worth it when you see everyone we have been working on.

Next pod is on schedule for Wednesday tho

These were just 1.5x!

My pack hourglasses are ready

Yeah they are. These came from Canada.

I’m rich!

Thanks! This is Ektar. Probably my favorite color negative film right now.

Google just flipped on Gemini in my email and it’s the most intrusive and unhelpful piece of shit.

PetaPixel is doing great. I think that’s why I’m so surprised.

I’m hearing that a majority of the editorial team at my Alma Mater Digital Trends have been laid off.

Similar to how my days ended there, it doesn’t sound great.

So that’s where all the Provia is

Stock Photography's Crossroads: Can a Getty-Shutterstock Merger Fix It? The stock photography market’s consolidation into an oligopoly didn’t happen overnight.

Guest Opinion: The former CEO of Depositphotos weighs in on the Getty-Shutterstock merger:

Look at that healthy shelf. Makes me hopeful! I’ll be in Japan in about a month so fingers crossed I can restock.

No like

I wrote this lol. Broke two days after we recorded. We’ll def talk about it next week.

Next time let’s just do a story about your photos being good
