Cute Face

2 blue jays on the ground, one is about to eat an insect. The first jay says "I don't know how you cat eat grasshoppers" the second says "mm?". First goes "I can't eat anything with a cute face". The second jay appears confused "but... grasshoppers aren't––". We are looking down from the blue jay's perspective to see that the grasshopper has big eyes and a cute little smile. The final frame shows the blue jay gasping in surprise.

SaaS has its use cases but its absolute dominance over all software spaces right now is obnoxious, anti-consumer, and short sighted. Now everything can be a subscription service, nothing is owned, nothing is maintainable, and everything will be lost when these startups inevitably fold.

Though reach is sometimes better, day by day it becomes a less and less escapable conclusion that X/Twitter is operated by a cabal of narcissistic content thieves and promoters of regressive, inflammatory viewpoints. If that's what Free Speech is reduced to, they don't make it count for very much.
