someone on the Motorola forums was having the same problem with the camera I've been having, but I just have to share the image they posted to demonstrate the issue.
it's the funniest shit I've ever seen in my life dude

The photo is of an elderly woman in gray clothes that has been so bizarrely processed that it looks both totally over and desaturated

went to “well actually” my dear colleague over the assertion that it’s basically just us two only to remember that the other person I knew of who did this is in fact no longer living. man

This makes me one of very few living people who've written a large volume of iambic pentameter verse drama for money, on a deadline. Honestly I'm not sure anyone else is there who can say they did this, other than Cat Manning who picked up doing a substantial volume of Tragedian dialogue when I got sick during the production of Pathologic 2.

And I'm sad that a project with promise has been canceled
That said, idk if Ubi is who'd id trust with that.

Ubisoft: "Okay, so in this game you fight the Klan"
Marketers: "You can't sell that in America"
Ubisoft: "Why?"
Marketers: "Umm [gestures broadly]. The Klan fucking won?"
Ubisoft: "Merde."
Marketers: "Yeah, we've asked for the Statue back but they're being dicks about that too."

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

I wanna say a word here on behalf of the people who run social media accounts for institutions, companies & famous people. By and large, they are not "interns." The bigger the client, the more they get paid, because managing the waves of public opinion is tricky, and the amount of abuse is unending.

Very ew.

It was the park's biggest day of the year, they made money hand over fist, but we always hired extra security and locked normally-unlocked doors to increase employee safety. There were at least a couple of occasions where a drunk cop pulled a gun on a worker.
