Creativity is all about having a singular vision! Now change this script that 10 random strangers assembled in a room didn't like after half-reading it once.

A lot of talk around Adobe & Canva Affinity recently. Here's my 2 cents. A lot of us old creatives grew up in a time of competition between design apps (Quark, Corel, Macromedia, Omni). Competition was good. It forced the cream to rise to the top and acted as bulwark against a single walled-garden.

For the love of all that is good, if you are presenting on an "all company" meeting please mute your Outlook and Slack notifications. 🤬

I requested apple to transfer my iCloud photos to Google photos a week ago and they still haven't done it 🤬 really shouldn't take this long

Apple F'ed-up with OS 26. Liquid Glass is hienous. I'm already in the process of switching back to Android. What to do about desktop remains the big question.

After living with Apple's new UI for almost a month, it's... fine, I guess? I've got used to it. It's still not "good". But weighing it against the hassle of switching platforms, I'm resigned to staying on apple. I'd rather have everything work and be slightly ugly than the alternative.

I figured out why I hate Liquid Glass so much. It looks like a kid who’s using Photoshop for the first time, discovered the Bevel & Emboss filter, and has applied it to EVERYTHING. It’s childish, and immature.

imagine being a member of Seal Team 6 and having some alcoholic Fox News host make you sit in a theater while he calls you a fat pussy.

I've been a Mac user since 1992, and Liquid Glass has turned me off so badly that I'm 90% sure I'm going to switch to Linux (Zorin OS) and Android (Google Pixel). The question is: Build a desktop PC from scratch? OR go with a laptop (like Framework 16)?

We see where this is going. The only speech allowed is speech that upholds white conservative Christian supremacy. It's almost as if they're really really glad what happened, happened

I hate apple’s liquid glass so much I’m thinking of going all linux & android. And this is from someone who’s been a die-hard mac user since 1992.

Just updated all my apple devices to the new OS. The UI is so bad. Just godawful.

I heard once that "respect" can mean "treat as a person" or it can mean "obey the authority of", and very often someone wants you to obey their authority before they'll treat you like a person.

Only MAGA says that

Republicans: "killing people is always wrong" Also Republicans: "unless theyre undesirable like being homeless or trans or immigrant or black or brown or gay or left wing or unmarried or unable to conceive or in danger while conceiving or trafficking victims or or or or or or"

There's no shame in being wrong about something. There is shame in choosing to be wrong.

The pundits who think what Kirk was doing on campuses was open dialogue also probably think Draft Kings should let you bet on WWE.

The determination of rich famous Americans to create a society of bitter resentful people armed with weapons that can kill from long distance is stunningly dumb

Socialist and Black Panther Party deputy chairman Fred Hampton was born on this day in 1948. “You can kill a revolutionary, but you can never kill the revolution.”

The centrist argument my whole life is that they're the practical realists who can get things done, but the last few years have revealed that they truly have no idea how to do politics. Zero instincts. Just a belief that nothing should ever change

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

As a LONG time mac user, I really want to like Safari. But every time I try, it's slow and buggy (at least on desktop). Inevitably I end up going back to Firefox.

Multiracial social democracy is what comes next. The people should have control over the government, the economy, and our society. We should not allow oligarchs, dictators, or corporations to dominate our planet, our country, or our lives.

It is 1999. I am annoyed that a long out-of-print LP has not been released on CD. It is 2010. I am annoyed that a favorite CD from the ‘90s has not been released on LP. It is 2025. I am annoyed that a brand new LP is not being released on CD.
