@ChrisAvellone
Very sad.
FNV feels like a seminal part of my experience in life. I believe it altered my approach to creative work, how I engage with video games as an artistic medium, etc.
Haven’t cared for any of the others.

That is the Perfect example of “good dumb” - the callback to that song as a remix in the nightclub in Bratislava, the fact that it was his brother’s ringtone, etc…So dumb, but so clever too.

agree, I liked the change of pace at first but at this point he may as well say “I’m not saying who we are taking but it rhymes with Shrake Baye”
dial it back like 20-30%

Yeah it was def him.
Ironically I think he was protecting him from getting crushed by dude in black who came in like a freight train at the end

Happy to see my Figma tribute to Path resonating with a few folks. Obsessing over the product details in Path was what drove me into product design. thank you

I went on a date with a girl who brought up the what’s your favorite movie question.
I go into my usual diatribe. “What about you?”
“Meet the Spartans”
Using silver and bronze as tiebreaker is wrong.
The real tiebreaker:
Distance traveled by athletes has major implications on their performances. There are 987 medals.
Chinese athletes has to travel 8.3km per medal.
US athletes has to travel 6.2km per medal.
We win on tiebreak

I’m a designer and was going to say neobrutalism FWIW. This is definitely a little less cartoonishly expressive, so I’d be fine calling it Business Neobrutalist™️, haha

Fair, tbh.
Some of my personal favorite follows in design. highly recommended:
@Mappletons
visit her blog and thank me later
@laurenloprete
sense of humor can only be tapped into after years of slaying DS maintainer dragons. brilliant + funny is in short supply in the design
Not trying to stir shit up. There's amazing guys on here. Def follow them!
But why do guys ALWAYS admire/promote the work of other guys and not women? Unless they go out of their way to make a list of ONLY women…
Are we not worthy of equal praise in the same categories?

yep, married 10 years. wife was born to be a sales genius and I was put here to curmudgeon from a dark room with a keyboard. she didn't know what CTRL+Z meant until a week ago. I stan my queen

ALF was a sitcom in the early 1990s - one of America’s oddest cultural exports
originally the intention was to have ALF stuck at a military base doing hijinks to everyone. But the show never got renewed so you just see him get captured at the end.
@CameraWithLimbs
yes. original TCM was horror film as art. groundbreaking
not everything that came after has been terrible. but all of it belies the craft and execution of the OG

girl blew through a red light ~40-45MPH into my drivers side door
Luckily it was a Chevy cruise, but still thankful to have simply got up and walked away, no injuries.
Terrifying impact even if it pales in comparison to the OP.

Brady took 565 sacks which is more than any QB in history. I know you all at EEI are having a field day being relevant for the first time in 20 years, but try to at least get basic facts right. Wouldn’t think that’d be hard after covering him your whole career.

My dad is the head of a retail signage company. Major FUD in 2020 as you might guess.
He had the company temporarily pivot to offering plexiglass shields.
Ended up being one of their best years
cheers to the unsexy businesses

TravelWire looms large over the laundry
Lalo isn't even introduced until the next episode, but he, TravelWire, and the laundry are intrinsically linked in the story.
After a wildly depressing 15+ interview loops + no offers in Q3/Q4 2022 - just got 2 through 3loops here now in Q1 2024.
God's plan, I just walk it.
Super grateful to my friends and network. you have really lifted me up. Excited for the next chapter!
@PatsBuzz
Common artifact of that era of the Colts + Ravens. Harbaugh's rep as a tough coach is hysterical when matched against his record of being an absolute crybaby about the patriots
@KristiNoem
I read the details and this was not the no nonsense farm girl W you thought it was. you are a bad steward of animals and will answer for your cruelty before God.
I had lunch with a white friend where I put sriracha on my rice & he wanted to try it bc he never tried sriracha before
After 1 bite, his face turned bright red, he started sweating & ran off to chug milk bc it was too spicy for him
Most white people can’t handle spicy
@samhenrigold
he engages with the platform in a super weird fashion IMO. Cannot handle pushback which is not surprising, but clearly someone adapting to an internet culture that passed him by

💯 from the second that NCR ranger fired the shot, then Benny “rugged from the start”…immersed from the first cut scene.
What I would give to MIB neuralize myself and experience it all again for the first time
@designalily
Appreciate you speaking up. I��ve had some real bad ones this last year though none as blatantly overt as this. It’s very rough and folks are being taken advantage of.
Lot of true colors being shown
@isaiah_p_taylor
A bunch of feelings-based pontificating not grounded in reality. Goes out of its way to paint Gundo in the least charitable light possible (of course).
The US is behind and we need more unapologetic winners and community builders - and less “🥺 👉👈 is war like..nice tho?”.
Response for stickers has been absolutely incredible. Still working on getting back to everyone, but I'm shipping everywhere from the Gundo to Australia on Monday/Tuesday.
I have a feeling we are, in fact, going to win 🫡🦅
WALL OF TEXT on design engineering thoughts, + reflecting on my best & worst DE roles:
—
For a DE to have impact + be fulfilled you need leadership who truly get the value, are bought in, and position you to succeed horizontally in the org.
A tale of two roles!
In one:
-I
@fallintotech
yes - fair Q. My 9-5 has been in enterprise financial services for years now so I need a reboot using either spec work or side projects
my thought is win/win - help 🇺🇸 startups and tailor new portfolio material to reflect where I *want* to be in career (vs now)
