I am so excited for the visual stories that will come to life from this!
This workshop will initiate with people from Mexico, Latin America and Europe to strengthen the ties of stop motion and collaboration and, in exchange, education will be provided for free for one Mexican / Latinamerican student for the first ten years also.
Guillermo del Toro, Netflix, and Gobelins have teamed to open a stop-motion studio in Paris. The endeavor shares a kindred spirit with Mexico's El Taller del Chucho, also co-founded by del Toro, and will honor stop-motion legend Mark Gustafson.

Look you just have to make the cool weird shit that excites you. You must. In this world besieged by bland, scrubbed boring, computer slop, you must. Make the thing you’re embarrassed to make, the thing that feels “too much” because otherwise we get drowned in a sea of cowardly work made by a button

This is the third restaurant I have been on this trip where the tv is showing competitive cornhole. Did I miss a weird turn in competitive sports or something?

Why play one of those Hidden Picture games where you look for the weird object in an unlikely place when that is literally my whole heckin' day, but the weird object is my phone, my tablet, my keys, my glasses, my shoes, my credit card... all on repeat forever.

I needed this today. Maybe you are also a nerd who is short on the stuff that makes you keep trying in the face of the impossible. If so, this one might also be for you.

I'm so glad my partner and I have these health trackers to tell us that our sleep is worse when we stay up drinking wine until midnight than it is when we don't drink wine and go to bed at 10:30.
How to improve our well-being continues to be a mystery. As pictured here.

One of my superpowers is excellent compartmentalizing that lets me be fairly productive while the world burns. But, the idea that the court needs to take a pause to consider if we need to bring back someone we wrongly shipped to a foreign torture prison has shut it down today. (╯°□°)╯( ┻━┻

This is a really great conversation with Aleksandra Gliszczynska-Grabias discussing how Poland stood up to the collapse of law in the face of authoritarianism, much like we are facing in the states now. It's worth a read/listen. (gift link)

Nothing in my childhood experiences of endlessly begging for my conservative parents to put anything fun on the TV prepared me for conservatives to take issue with 60 Minutes.
