The OS X Panther dog tags!

My 10-year-old was showing me “protective pet“ videos. It was disheartening to see how much of it was AI slop but also promising in how well they were able to spot all the tells. “Why would there even be a camera there?” “Did you see the leash go through the table?”
Dang it, I was just thru earlier today, I wish I knew!

Dang @weheart.games the linen cards are great! I didn‘t know @thegamecrafter.bsky.social offered it!
Holding boxes for Crownfell and Crownfell: Last Stand
New @weheart.games came in! Excited to get Crownfell to the table!

Artists, I want you to hear this and embrace it: you're amazing. I love you and I want you to keep making art. Don't listen to anyone who tries to tell you it isn't as important and necessary as it is.
"what's the plan?" my goodness - beyond self-parody at this point
WHAT'S THE PLAN? YOU'RE DESCRIBING THE ARTISTIC PROCESS YOU BOZOOOOOSSSSS
Photo of a wooden children’s color wheel puzzle, with an odd choice of tertiary colors, and an absolutely nonsensical choice of colors between the tertiaries.
Puzzle at the children's room of my local library. Absolutely enraging. (And yes, that's the "proper" order, there's a printed template underneath the pieces.)
If you still have a Ring camera, you may want to think about replacing it with something a little less Continental Panopticon.

If you want to know what's going on in Minnesota, I recommend following & listening to Minnesotans. I recommend reading the articles we share. Believe us when we tell you what's happening.

I have full faith and confidence in any and all of your abilities should they hit MKE. And you have support from MSP.
Creative Cloud modal showing versions of Animate going back to v23.0
That scared me. But I just checked, can still go back to at least 1 previous full release version by clicking on the three dots in the app in CC, then choosing "Other Versions" in all apps. A few years ago they limited it to a shorter window.
Granted… Adobe hasn’t done a lot to earn much trust from users either, so it’s kinda believable, too.
I know rage baiting gets all the clicks, but there’s a lot of FUD and people are making it sound like Animate will delete all your FLA files in 30 days
I can’t believe y’all are going to make me post like an adobe apologist…
- New releases for Animate are stopping in Mach 2026
- the app will still be available to download thru March 2027
- as long as it will run on a host system, you can keep using it just like the other old versions of apps
I keep saying this and obviously it applies to any place where there's a headline-grabbing crisis/war/situation/etc:
What you see in the news stories about the Twin Cities, even the deep-dive articles, is a *fraction* of what's actually happening. Countless other stories untold.
Whoa, click through to download the famed 2003 “Directors Label” DVD collections of music videos by the masters (Gondry, Romanek, Jonze, Corbijn, Cunningham, etc) with commentary & extras, seemingly uploaded by Directors Label for the 20th anniversary. Incredible resource!
The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.
Christi Noem should testify under oath in Congress and explain why she lied about the facts around the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti.
Worth noting that one reason you’re benefitting so fully from the Star-Tribune’s timely, extensive coverage of unfolding events is that it’s a metro newspaper that hasn’t been systematically starved to further enrich shareholders and executives.
It’s -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing
It’s one of the few bright lights on the ground here. It gives me hope with how quickly this all formed in the city and around.
Needs more America. Where is the bald eagle?
