I had to look up sinecure, damn what a good word that perfectly describes the bulk of the Democrats

A+ grammar, would learn again

I'm really trying my best to lose myself in learning and doing projects. I'm 3D printing all the things, I'm CNCing wood, I'm laser etching and cutting leather and fabric, I'm learning how to sew, and today going to try embroidery for the first time

Meanwhile Friday at my job looks like this 🫠

FGC meetups are the homies and they're doing so many things right

Predator pinball is going into production

Don't know when I'll see one in person, but it's pretty fun to see a line of skinned body cabinets (and an Alien peeking out in the back)

I often talk about thinking of 3D printers like sewing machines—tools that might not be in every house, but are pretty ubiquitous and with a little practice allow you a lot of freedom to make things

But, I didn't actually know how to sew, so my wife taught me and I made my first hat. Cat for scale

First version of the sewing machine extension is being inspected

My utterly unscientific analysis is that my cats seem more excited about chicken Churu than tuna

Today is chicken and scallop, but they got nuts for the chicken and cheese

Making an extension table for my wife’s sewing machine, cheaper and better than the commercial offerings, but also as a prototype towards eventually making a full table I can embed the machine in

I really should get a corner radius gauge, but this worked pretty well

A little talked about feature of the iPhone I love is the crosshairs that appear when you’re shooting down at a surface to help you be perfectly level to help prevent distortion

My dad asked if I would give him one of my 'reject' magnetic knife block prototypes. I'd much rather send him a custom one for his kitchen I'm proud of, so made a new one

Leather and white oak, two tone dye, finished with orange oil and bees wax. I love the back details that nobody but him will see

Random fun fact: I designed the teaser website for Shaolin Monks, I was doing a lot of marketing stuff for Midway then

It's all lost to the sands of time now because everything then was in Flash, but I probably have mockups for it still on an old hard drive

I deep cleaned the water fountain with bleach and replaced the filter and now it’s very suspicious

The arcade at Evo this year was super sick. Really big, tons of cool games and variety, and right in the middle of the floor where everyone passed through so you could just enjoy the vibe even if you weren't playing

I'm so confused, I got block by da share zone for this post?

Can anyone explain that one to me?

Google's AI out here trying to make me sick

Honestly anyone who trusts these overviews is a fucking moron, straight up

Catching up on my email now that I'm back from Evo and had this gem from my favorite Canadian knife store

50% tariff plus a $25 fee just to order something that nobody in the US is making in the first place

Anyways, this is gonna apply to a lot of stuff, so maybe be prepared

I really contributed only the smallest of parts to the massive undertaking that is Evo, but after that emotional ending to it all it was very special to me to see my name up there and be included

I love the FGC
