This was not the snarky retort I asked for! You encourage me like this, you’ll have me thinking I can actually do art!

Seriously, thank you. And that is food for thought. The current new Medium logo looks better when it’s running as an animated gif than when it’s just sitting there — a static, mishapen lumpy thing. If you can’t know how the concept will perform everywhere, there should be variants for each possible platform.

We went to the airshow this past weekend. One group did a really cool maneuver — I can’t remember what it was called, but two planes did a low-altitude breakaway and loop, while another two shot upwards and did the same, closer together. Seriously cool, but the smoke trails left a giant penis in the sky. I tried not to laugh. Either I have a seriously dirty mind, or we were all thinking, “Don’t laugh. Don’t laugh. If you can’t do aerobatics like that, don’t you dare laugh.”
