New project starting soon. Might actually have to DESIGN things for first time since like 2018.

Meta’s Twitter competitor Threads is here and I hate it
Installed Threads and immediately saw a bunch of random messages from people I don’t follow just because someone I do follow replied to them with two words or an emoji.
Tried to post to tell people to follow me on Mastodon but Threads just crashed over and over every time I tried. 🤷🏻♂️

Oh no now every time the timeline reloads it’s different posts and most of the time it’s all stuff completely unrelated to anyone I’m following. You know, just like Instagram. Why on earth would anyone want this?
Why do so many people here seem so eager to jump to Bluesky or Threads? Why did they leave Twitter if they’re so eager to jump to different evil companies and their algorithms?

Missing Titanic sub piloted by janky video game controller
Apparently that missing Titanic sub was piloted by some Mad Catz-ass looking controller? You wouldn’t even make your little brother’s friend play GoldenEye with this thing.
WFM (Working from Mall)
Working from Willow Bend Mall where two thirds of things are boarded up or padlocked has similar vibes to going into office. (But with better music and worse wifi.)
Climate change is making flights more turbulent
Cool cool cool cool… 😬
Climate change is making flights more turbulent and it’s expected to keep getting worse.
Star Wars Outlaw gameplay reveal
If Ubisoft’s Star Wars Outlaws doesn’t let you pull the view out a bunch and tone down all the camera swinging, chalk it up as another game I’m super interested in and won’t be able to play. 🥴
I wish I had 1/100th of the creativity & imagination of the artists behind the visuals of Across the Spider-Verse. 🤯
