Leave me something #StarTrek

The Human Adventure is Just Beginning. Celebrating Star Trek: The Motion Picture, which premiered in theatres on Dec 7, 1979. The film had flaws, but was a major triumph, for Gene Roddenberry, for the production team, and most of all for the fans, whose determination & persistence made it possible.

"Why do Gen Z have a growing appetite for retro tech?" 1) Older tech was built to last. 2) Our tactile experience of the world is poorer and our nervous systems yearn for variety in touch. 3) In the last ~15 years tech has been used for exploitation over assistance, ignoring needs that still exist.

With all the awful things happening in there world here's something to cheer you up 😁🥹😌🎄🎄🎄

Since it’s that time of the year again, I want to reintroduce this gem 💎 I posted last year that always makes me smile. Etsy really did something special here when they came out with this black queer holiday commercial and the reliability behind it. It still touches my soul til this day. 🥹🖤

"Every UI designer working today owes the Okudas. Myself included. I've been in UI/UX for over 30 years. I watched this entire trajectory unfold—from DOS terminals to VR. Michael and Denise contributed more to Apple's design language than any designer who ever cashed a check from Cupertino."

"1985 is what he chose to say, when gays were dying from AIDS and nobody was helping them... let's just go back to that status quo... we don't bother you, you don't bother us. You die, we don't give you healthcare services, and that'll be fine." @timmiller.bsky.social on Tucker Carlson's remarks.

Here was another of those mock Star Wars Visual Dictionary-style renders I did last year, with my TIE Shuttle model. I didn't have as much to fill the page composition with on this one, and the model is a lot less detailed. I would probably need to add an inset or only dedicate half of a page to it.

The Chicago-L is so cool. From the strange size spec of the trains to the elevated lines that snakes between buildings downtown. It's a shame more US cities don't build infrastructure like this.....because trains = socialism or whatever the rationale is.

"We elves try to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corns, and syrup". Maybe this is the reason we haven't seen the CTA Elves Workshop Train riding the rails in Chicago in several years. Not the best diet! :)

We all know that's how they really feel about us. You gotta watch them folks even when they act nice.

Tho the sun sets earlier now, work still must get done. Get a few pushups in too.
