who would EVER use this cropped photo of John Sculley, when you could use this full, beautiful picture of him in a suspiciously dark room with way too many 2-liters
LinkedIn-ass photo of John Sculley circa 1979, cropped to his shoulders up, from a slightly low unflattering angle, like how your boss calls you from the airport on Zoom.An incredible full photo of John Sculley holding two-liters of Aspen and Mountain Dew, with an additional eight (8) two-liters on a table in front of him, standing in a suspiciously dark room, with some sofas behind him. I’m genuinely not sure what kind of room this is, or why he’s in there peddling sodas.

What a year it’s been for sci-fi. For All Mankind, Star City and Star Trek: Strange New Worlds running pretty much continuously since March. And I started the Tom Baker era of Doctor Who on my personal watch through. I should rerererewatch the first six Star Trek movies every week, as a treat ☺️

Taking some 5× pictures just because, while I still can
Extremely zoomed-in photo of my cute fuzzy dog, Indy, laying down on an orange couch. You can clearly see her sleepy eyes and most of her nose with a hint of her floofy tail along the bottom of the frame. It’s almost too zoomed in to truly appreciate her majesty and beauty.

Not what I would have written but ok
Edited screenshot of Tim Cook’s executive bio: “As CEO, Tim oversaw the introduction of numerous products and services, including new categories like Apple Polishing Cloth, MacBook Pro Polishing Cloth, and Apple Vision Pro Polishing Cloth, and services ranging from Apple Card Monthly Payments for Apple Polishing Cloth to Apple Upgrade for Apple Polishing Cloth. He was also instrumental in expanding existing product lines. Under Tim’s leadership, Apple expanded its global footprint substantially, particularly in emerging textile markets, growing to more than 200 countries and territories with an active installed base of more than 2.5 billion cloths.”

Straight No Filter | 9x9 ToDo System for ADHD
I’ve known for a while that if I don’t write something down, it’ll never get done. The problem was that once I’d written something in my little pocket notebook, or my big, easy-open TK desk notebook, or added it to my phone reminders list, I would still forget about it. My girlfriend jokes that I will eat all the chocolate in the house, unless she puts it somewhere I won’t see it.
