  • Aside from the likelihood of this outing my account, I once had a first date at a renowned noodle house in town, and the surprise rarity of the single table in the front window (converted Victorian, alcove). We order, make small talk, I think it’s going great — until movement in the corner of my right eye out the window draws me to watch, in the middle of her sentence, a full-grown adult male climb onto the hood of the parallel parked car and proceed to empty his thrice-cursed bowels onto it like he was putting out a chemical fire.

    I recall being unable to look away and catching her attention drift toward my view at the same time the waiter arrived with our lunches, only to table them with an “Uhm. Well.” and ghost.

    So, not exactly “at another table”, but the whole place has front row seats, so 🤷🏽‍♂️













  • TBF, there was a time when Photoshop was a collegiate course around the world. Now? All but the most niche aspects are automated, and any human user of software offering personal agency in its UX is part of the actual product: mapping humanity’s stats.

    Canva has a “style” as much as the Marketing Dept has a soul among them. This is the result of countless hours of testing and refinement: not a masterpiece, but it sells like a MFer. Just wait until “AI” gets a real piece of the action.

    I could not agree more (gotta switch; it’s getting late, heh), and I felt the same about pre-10s Barcelona, but that ship has long since sailed. Still, my travels changed my life in so many ways, and I can’t wait to get back to it! Have fun, fellow human, and here’s hoping for a better, more compassionate world for all of us in this world’s future! 🤗

    Thanks for the practice, btw! 🥳🤘🏽

    If you find yourself in the Frankfurt area sometime, drop me a line and I’ll be happy to link you up with some really awesome friends of mine out there.
