I appreciate Vital Proteins new packaging. Took a minute to figure out, but the reduced plastic is appreciated. #sustainability
Vital proteins collagen peptides container promotions 90% less plastic. Open Collagen Peptides container showing white powder in low plastic.

Had a great time talking to this couple from Darkoom Faire at the McMinnville Scottish Festival. They had Darkmoon faire before it became a think in World of Warcraft.

Nothing is sacred.
4 frame comic. The author is in bookstore. Text above reads : I went to my local bookstore today, and the first thing I saw upon entering was a display of children's books made with aI. In second frame, she holds a book. Text reads : telling stories to children is so quintessential to the human experience. why would anyone want to let robots do it for us? In the third frame there is a recipe book open on a cake picture. Text reads : a few months ago, I bought a recipe book that turned out to have been made with aI. hallucinated cakes that I unknowingly placed next to a binder containing my mom and grandma's hand- written recipes. In the last frame, the author as a child is baking with her grandmother. Text reads : I'm not against aI because it might ''steal my job'' as an artist. I'm against aI because it robs society from the very experiences that connect us.

I don't agree with all the points being made here, but this opening sentence really hits home. 👇

It seems so rude and careless to make me, a person with thoughts, ideas, humor, contradictions and life experience to read something spit out by the equivalent of a lexical bingo machine because you were too lazy to write it yourself.

I find it fitting that a Joo-Ann’s is resurrected as a Spirit Halloween store.
A Spirit Halloween store that has taken over and old Jo-Ann’s fabrics. You can still see Jo-Ann on the cart return stall. The door has the words “Experience the Creativity” over them.

In the four years I've been at IGN I've watched its staff shrink and shrink, all while those who remain are asked to do more and more. I see colleagues skip lunch, stay late day after day, and burn out.

IGN staff are passionate and love their work. But we can't keep letting that be exploited.
ignunion.bsky.social IGN Creators Guild @ignunion.bsky.social · Aug 25
Ziff Davis and IGN routinely decide that work done by our laid off colleagues is not important. But inevitably, that crucial work falls onto those who remain.

Not this time. Not anymore.
FROM NOW UNTIL FEBRUARY 13TH IGN CREATORS GUILD IS GOING TO... DO OUR JOB! OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS, IGN MANAGEMENT HAS GOTTEN AWAY WITH LAYING OFF OUR COWORKERS OVER AND OVER. MEANWHILE, MANY OF OUR COLLEAGUES HAVE LEFT THE COMPANY IN NO SMALL PART DUE TO BUYOUTS, OVERWORK, AND FEELING UNSUPPORTED, EACH TIME, THE COMPANY HAS REFUSED TO BACKFILL MANY ESSENTIAL ROLES, CLAIMING WE'RE ON A HIRING FREEZE, IT'S NOT IN THE BUDGET, OR THAT WE'RE GOING TO DO LESS WORK THIS TIME. AS A RESULT, IGNCG MEMBERS HAVE BEEN FORCED TO TAKE ON MORE OF THEIR FORMER COLLEAGUES' WORKLOADS. MANY OF US NOW WORK LONGER HOURS THAN WE USED TO. A LOT OF US RARELY TAKE LUNCH BREAKS. SOME OF US DO NOT TAKE ADEQUATE TIME OFF DUE TO THERE BEING NO ONE TO PICK UP THE SLACK. OTHERS OF US ARE STUCK DOING WORK WE WERE NEVER HIRED TO DO IN THE FIRST PLACE. UP TO THIS POINT, WE'VE ALL ACCEPTED THIS AS NORMAL, BECAUSE WE CARE DEEPLY ABOUT IGN AND THE WORK WE DO. BUT WITH SO MANY OF US STRUGGLING MORE AND MORE AS EACH NEW WAVE OF OUR COWORKERS ARE DEPRIVED OF A LIVELIHOOD, THIS CYCLE CAN'T CONTINUE. MANAGEMENT IS UNWILLING TO STOP IT, SO IT FALLS TO US. WITH THE LAYOFFS OF EIGHT OF OUR COWORKERS, IGNCG HAS NEGOTIATED A SIX-MONTH RECALL LIST. WHAT THAT MEANS IS THAT, FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS, IF IGN WANTS TO FILL ANY OF THOSE ELIMINATED ROLES AGAIN, THEY MUST REHIRE OUR LAID-OFF COLLEAGUES. WE WANT THEM TO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET THEIR JOBS BACK IF THEY WANT THEM, AND IF NOT, WE WANT THOSE ROLES BACKFILLED TO EASE THE BURDEN ON THE REST OF US. SO STARTING TODAY, LENCE MEMBERS ARE COMMITTING TO DO OUR JOBS. NO MORE, NO LESS. WELL SHOW UP TO WORK ON TIME AND LEAVE ON TIME. WE'RE TAKING ALL OF OUR LUNCH TIME, EVERY DAY. IF WE WORK LATE, WE WILL FIRMLY ASK FOR OUR RIGHTFULLY EARNED COMP TIME. AND IF IGN WANTS OUR LAID-OFF COWORKERS' WORK TO GET DONE, THEY'LL HAVE TO REHIRE THEM TO DO IT INSTEAD OF FOISTING IT UPON US. HOW CAN YOU SUPPORT IGNCG IN ALL THIS? SHARE THIS POST, AND TELL IGN MANAGEMENT THAT Y…

I am finding that instead, just having the app there with the badge showing past due items to be a better way to get me to do things. Make the number go away!!!!

I can have a reminders widget, which lists everything I need to get done in a day, but it just ends up being noise since it shows everything no matter what time of day it is, and I have several repeating reminders. I have to give my dog eye drops three times a day, so it shows up three times.

I might be done with more complicated iOS Home Screen widgets. They don’t give me enough information and I have to go into the app anyways. I am never sure if I need to complete something.

Second attempt at Brioche. Went better than the first try, which did not rise at all after coming out of the oven. Still not happy with it though. Think I need 50% more ingredients for my pan size.
