I can recommend myNoise if you’re looking for an app with quality soundscapes. Unfortunately not free for all of them, but they are all very high quality and they offer an unlock all option.

Screenprinting. I also did work as a quality tech for machining. Manufacturing jobs in general do not seem to get any public recognition even though they can be some of the most engaging and can cater to a lot of people that don’t enjoy the employee-customer relationship.

That being said, finding the sweet spot for management can be a challenge.

It’s a career path that’s practically ignored in schools and I wish math classes used more examples from engineering and manufacturing to answer the age-old “Where am I ever going to use this?” question.

Just watched Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. It’s 140% more Nick Cage per Nick Cage than any other film.

Wow. This wasn’t on my radar at all! Definitely going to be checking this out.

Yesss. The way the lines all sort of sway always gives it such a unique look. I was worried the remaster would take some of this away, but it looked just as good.

I wish we could have gotten a proper sequel. RIP Clover Studios.

While less popular, Viewtiful Joe also still holds up for similar reasons.

To add to this, the opposite of love is not hate, but ignore.

Giving your energy and attention to hating something typically means that they occupy enough mental real estate in your day to day life that you feel the need to broadcast it on a regular basis.

The liberals I know tend to spend the majority of their free time focusing on improving themselves and the world around them rather than simply target blame somewhere else.

Nah. Sun just acts as the Queen Atom. Without it, you’d end up with a Helvetica Scenario. This is basic science.

Old Boy is a movie that constantly has you on edge because you can tell something is going horribly wrong, but you’re not sure what it is. Once you find out, the whole thing is fucked six ways to Sunday.

The thing that always gets me about these theories:

Okay, it’s revealed the Earth is flat and all of our modern science is a coverup. How does this affect me in my day to day life? I still have to go to work tomorrow.

Would this disable/prevent use of already purchased drones as well? I’ve considered picking one of these up for the longest time, but now with this potential ban, I’d really want to pick one up, but not if they would be unusable if this passes.

Huh. I’ve been a fan of pretty much everything they put out. I’m curious what this album had that the others didn’t for you.

Don’t forget about Gormanuary

I’ll chip in. I had dropped out of college due to realizing the program wasn’t for me and had to move back in with my mom.

I had a bad habit of forgetting to lock the door, so to retaliate, she took all of my most expensive electronics and stashed them away, but claimed they were stolen (technically they were by her). This included my laptop with a full year of college work, which was mostly art that I cared a lot about.

I found out a year later from my dad that the whole family knew, but she demanded they keep it a secret. When I confronted her, she told me she had thrown it all in the garbage because at the time, I questioned if it was her that did it. Some totally backwards logic there.

Thank you so much! It’s been a heck of a journey. I’ve learned a ton and honestly never thought I’d get to this point. I’ll try to remember to come back and let you know when the album drops.

I remember the first time I saw a Tesla interior and just couldn’t understand why the hell they moved the speedometer (and every other piece of critical information) out of your line of sight.

We have completely added a shitton of inconvenience and confusion to car interiors. This is what my dash looks like in a 2003:

This and my radio are literally all I need to operate my vehicle. The idea of having screens and any extra information just bothers me. We’re hurtling 2+ ton boxes of death along highways and neighborhoods. They should be treated like construction equipment. They shouldn’t be entertainment first. You shouldn’t be fully relaxed and unaware of your surroundings.

And you certainly shouldn’t feel like the car has your back. The way modern safety features lull you into a false sense of security is honestly one of the worst ideas yet. If you’re convinced the car will always protect you with 287 “automatic” safety features, you’ll be convinced you don’t have to pay attention anymore.

When did cars become living rooms with wheels?

I describe myself as looking like what happens when you skip character creation. I’m super average-looking and would be tough to pick from a crowd.

One of my all-time favorites and such a tragedy. Top-tier acting from everyone involved and every scene is just so beautiful.

If you enjoyed this, see about tracking down Walking Life. It’s made by the same director before he made this and also rotoscoped. It’s even further out there with the art style, but opened my eyes to alternates ways of viewing the world.
