After that plane literally flipped upside down after smashing into the runway and 100% of people survived, I hope every person who ever said “what’s even the point of seatbelts on a plane” feels like a real doof.

Starting tomorrow!

Connect the dots method for freehand ink sketches. I started doing this during my urban sketches class because this was cleaner than perspective lines and I can hide most of them.

"Terrorism" is a socially constructed term. If Luigi murdered a homeless Black man, the US would call him a hero. If he killed poor/sick Americans every day via insurance policy, they'd say "what about his family?" What’s happening is disgusting & anyone with a brain sees right through it

Paperback books are like velveteen rabbits — there to be loved and squeezed and read and stuffed into shoulder bags and left in the sun and read again until there's nothing left but the best kind of memories

If you're a Spotify user who is finding the microgenre & geodata of your annual "Wrapped" to be less substantial than usual, there's a reason why. A year ago, Spotify laid off most of its employees who worked on genre classification, including folks like data alchemist @glennmcdonald.bsky.social.

Touching to have Spotify celebrate the 1-year anniversary of my layoff by demonstrating that they could not, in fact, still do Wrapped just as well without me.

Telling real data stories requires more human intention than just filling numbers into a glib template.

If you like your human culture ground into low-intention AI mush, good news: you're going to get a lot of that. If you're interested in how data and algorithms might work for curiosity and joy, instead, you might like my book. www.furia.com/log/487

I am now a proud owner of the entire original Pokemon Adventures manga (Gen 1-3)! 🥳 It bothers me that Vol 10 is smaller than 1-9 tho but oh well. 😅 Thank you Eclipsio.bsky.social for getting me 6 of these! #PokemonAdventures

on ptcgp I wish we could trade in duplicate cards for a small amount of pack points as if we were trading in for store credit at our local

Shout out to boats in the Dragon Quest multiverse knowing how to zoom when the hero does.

I love the Charlie Brown Christmas special. There's an eerie loneliness that hangs over the whole thing. The music, Charlie Brown's depression, the dying little tree, the flatness of the children's voices, the inevitability of death. A Christmas masterpiece.

So fucking sick

I think video games, especially those with sophisticated narrative structure, could use a lot better grounding in player psychology. Basically right now we make up affinity groups or, much worse, rely on demographics, and then try to broadly design to what we think they like. Imo we can do better.
