Imagine being named Bobby McDonald or some shit and then living so long that both “Bobby” and “McDonald” enter the public lexicon as naughty words until you are essentially named “Penis Homosexual” and kids are afraid to write it down
And it could happen to any of us next
this is wrong each person on earth has a differentmoon that follows them and at the end of your life it comes down to earth and squashes you and kills you
look at them. you took a perfectly fucked up couple and made them normal. why would you do that.

Samantha: do the people know about Ampersand Island?
me: ... no.....
this is Ampersand Island. every time I come across a beautiful, interesting, or unusual ampersand in my archival travels I take a screenshot and place it neatly in this little pile on my desktop

I used to see this image all the time in December but now literally nobody cares. We as a society have forgotten him. All he wanted was to offer us a nice treat and what did we do? We abandoned him. Hell has taken refuge in our hearts and its fires have burned to ash all warmth and love. We should be ashamed.
tis the season been thinking about this movie

Why why does every UX designer eventually contract the brain parasite which makes them think frosted glass is a good idea in computer interfaces. It always looks sexy in the demo videos (which the designer controls completely) and then is a friggin mess in the real world where any kind of chaotic text or images could be right behind the glass, making the UI elements unreadable.
It happened on Windows and it happened on Linux, and both times it had to get walked back in disgrace, but those were both 20 years ago, and they had the excuse that nobody had done it before since GPUs only just became powerful enough, so they couldn't know what a mess it would be in practice. Apple doesn't have that excuse.
Alan Dye (the guy responsible for this fiasco) is leaving Apple to go work at Facebook, and his replacement is supposedly a career HCI person rather than another celebrity designer like Dye and Ive. Can't imagine this signals a great future for Liquid Glass, especially since what ended up shipping in the release builds was toned way down from the early betas (even though it still sucks).
Like I said, translucency in UI always seems like a good idea, and it always gets walked back because it doesn't work.
