UI vs UX
2-panel comic

1st panel, titled UI. Mom and dad standing over a crib with the baby. A mobile with cute animals is turning over the baby. Mom says "I love it!" dad says "Me too!"

2nd panel, titled UX: From baby's POV only animals' assholes are visible.

Just had the lady at the DMV do a double take looking at my passport photo and then back at me. That photo was pre-pandemic, I still had a naive sparkle in my eye back then, since extinguished.

Since we’re talking BUNNICULA I need everyone to know that the audiobook is read by Victor Garber and he truly out-gays himself. Harold and Chester absolutely come across as the fussy middle-aged couple they were obviously meant to be.

I've been spending a lot of time gritting my teeth and thinking of my halmoni, who was born into an occupied Korea in 1920, and lived to almost 100. She outlived a lot of dictators and other assholes, and raised 7 kids while she did it.

Certainly looks like we scared the President away from Chicago. Fighting like hell works.
“They are a progressive city, and they don’t want the president’s help. That’s on them. It’s horrific that they don’t want President Trump’s help.”

“Chicago should be begging Donald Trump for help to keep Chicago safe,” Bondi added. “Yet, they aren’t so we’re going to go into a city who wants us there.”

I don't know anybody that isn't a little bit broken, mentally or physically or both, from the pandemic. Our trust in systems and governments to protect us was broken and only continues to get shattered. Having to use our own blood and bone to make the future isn't a cute metaphor anymore

Tori @torible.bsky.social · 05/09/2025
Even when characters talked about things like "the eugenics war" or nuclear conflict, it's all stuff that happens in the past, or to other people. Our protagonists are almost always hale, whole-bodied, and blithe, with an amazing trust in systems that shoot them literally through empty space.

If I were smarter I could pinpoint the exact moment where SF lost its blinding optimism. We used to have this idea of the Future as a place, that we all are traveling to, a real destination for which we have a map and a common goal.
