I'm really trying my best to lose myself in learning and doing projects. I'm 3D printing all the things, I'm CNCing wood, I'm laser etching and cutting leather and fabric, I'm learning how to sew, and today going to try embroidery for the first time

Meanwhile Friday at my job looks like this 🫠

Piece of shit ICE fascists are swarming Little Tokyo. Posted up outside the Japanese American Museum threatening people with internment. Impossible to overstate how disgusting these people are.

The most valuable thing I learned from this was to remove barriers that increase the time it takes to iterate on failed designs.

Our current design would have saved us at least 8 months of just waiting.

Here’s a BTS talking about how we cut the iteration time down to 3-4 days.

I recognize the irony of using social media to say this, but I honestly think we're cooked

I don't see how the fuck we escape this
We're probably doomed to endless toxic feedback loops unless someone hits upon a brilliant fundamental redesign that manages to change social media's core dynamics.

If I had a dollar for every person who told me we could not *possibly* enact even the most reasonable gun control laws because otherwise true patriots would not be able to stop this scenario that is happening right now regardless I would be one of the oligarchs
NEW: L.A. and D.C. are only the beginning, as Trump's team has been drawing up plans to unleash federal forces in other Democratic strongholds.

I’m sorry but I refuse to stop laughing at “one of whom was doing a wheelie”
bragging about being a giant pussy is integral to the conservative mindset

Predator pinball is going into production

Don't know when I'll see one in person, but it's pretty fun to see a line of skinned body cabinets (and an Alien peeking out in the back)

I often talk about thinking of 3D printers like sewing machines—tools that might not be in every house, but are pretty ubiquitous and with a little practice allow you a lot of freedom to make things

But, I didn't actually know how to sew, so my wife taught me and I made my first hat. Cat for scale
