In the early 2000s I had a few conversations with friends, saying there seemed to be more rich people, stupid rich people, who bought stupid things, and that we should start producing stupid expensive crap targeted at rich people.

Never follow through, because it sounds kind of soul sucking, but probably should have given it a shot.

"Experts Name 'Best Kept Secrets' Studio Gear"

DMG Equilibrium I use every day, Klanghelm’s MJUC is great and I've been using it for years, Newfangled Audio Elevate sounds really good in the time I've spent with it and I'd probably use it if I wasn't so into DMG Limitless.

That Metric Halo interface is also the one I use.

Here's a deal:

All the Apulsoft plugins for $49.

High quality, unusual stuff. I've used aptrigga forever, the EQ is nice and has some interesting features, the others I haven't got around to yet.

They've been around for a long time but developer was laying low for a few years, but has gone fully into it for a while now, releasing new stuff.

Been watching "McMillan and Wife" and Rock Hudson was obviously having a contest with the other actors over who could have the most clashing shirt/tie/jacket combination and he came to win.
Every episode.

I truly feel that the moment I liberated myself from the ideas of ‘doing / learning things for productivity / success’, my relationship with everything changed. Like wdym I can learn typography without becoming a designer, learn to play an instrument without ever performing, and just.. be?

There’s a lot of info about ‘perfecting a craft’ but I’d bet it would help most people to just ‘dabble in a craft’

📚 #Writers, #readers, #vocabulary nerds: opinions, please? Reading or using term "faux pas"--we all know basic definition: social blunder. But do you assume-and/or do you think others assume--the term implies that the blunder happened b/c someone knew better & "oops, forgot!" Or that the blunder happened b/c someone didn't know better in 1st place? No wrong answers here. I just have reasons for wondering how others view this. Any input appreciated! 😎

Clearly not #today's most critical post!

Treason is barely a misdemeanor now for Republicans. They're going to start saying even that is unfair.

Don't count on that for you though if they take over.

Always amazed when people defend using some business or service and say "Well, it's just a necessity these days" when it absolutely is not, and often not even a convenience.

The word you're looking for is "habit".

House quashes Marjorie Taylor Greene motion to oust speaker Mike Johnson | Marjorie Taylor Greene | The Guardian

The House easily quashed Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene’s resolution to oust the Republican speaker, Mike Johnson, on Wednesday, as members of both parties came together in a rare moment of bipartisanship to keep the chamber open for business. The motion to table Greene’s resolution was 359 to 43, with 196 Republicans and 163 Democrats voting to kill…

You're not in the way, your body isn't taking up too much space. There is no normal, average is just the space between all the possibilities. You don't need to make yourself invisible, smaller, or less, because you don't meet some ridiculous criteria.

There’s this “Tips For Using AI-Generated Images In Your Slides” article, with this example of a chess board.
