Started in #radio 30+ years ago, which transitioned to #podcast 20+ years ago. “Mac OS Ken” focuses on Apple news. Used to do a show - “The Checklist” focused on security. And another about #StarTrek. These days, all I REALLY want to talk about are #bookbinding, #fountainpens, #printmaking, and #stationery. Well… and #VR. And #AR. And #Apple and #podcasting and radio.

The image at the top is a collection of fountain pens on display. The icon is an electronics diagram of a resistor.

@bbusschots that’s a great shot.
@dtm yeah. Feels like we’ve handed Gatling guns built by 8th graders to 5th graders.
@dtm not complaining, but the survey response options are not nuanced enough for me. I feel like there could eventually be great uses. But it’s currently being pushed as a cure all for ails we don’t actually have.

So - this feels like an important story. It’s a piece from The Atlantic on Hitler’s obsession with architecture. Just a piece about history.

Apple News link, because that’s what I have. But find it where you can. Well worth a read.

Hitler’s Edifice Complex — The Atlantic

He was obsessed with adding an expensive new wing to the Reich chancellery, part of his grandiose architectural ambitions for the nation’s capital.

@mwl @evoterra Wait! Where'd all the apes go?

@richardgunther I say as long as thought goes into it, as long as you have a system - even if it's different from mine (which is the only TRUE system), then all is well.

If it just looks like you piled stuff in there though, to the point that I can't even with your "no really, there's a system" BS... we may have an issue.

You deserve to use your #art supplies, regardless of your current skill level 🩷

This message brought to you as I stare at a blank piece of charcoal paper and agonize over whether I deserve to destroy it with my unskilled hands, to say nothing of whats about to happen to these innocent, unsuspecting oil pastels 😭
