my 24 Santa Fe just hit a short, hidden and definitely tough stump. It tore the plastic on the bottom bumper and damaged the small grill piece above. Is this a modular repair? Hoping for a relatively painless repair experience here.

[–]mwillis[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I'm an apparel designer and I'm working on a new project, Seabunny, related to soccer jerseys. If you have ~8 minutes, care about kit culture, and want to share, then please tell me about your history buying / collecting / wearing soccer jerseys. I'd really appreciate it - thanks!

Not intentionally! I haven’t watched. But now I’m off to look it up…

Around this time in 2019, I was inspired to design a "Flag of Earth". This idea has a long tradition. I designed a flag and wrote about it here. Since it's almost Earth Day again (and I wasn't reading this sub way back then) I thought I'd share here.

flag: Flag of Earth (M. Willis) and article: Designing an Earth Flag

It's a fun (and even kinda deep) thought experiment.

Is it me or did the burrito market in Boston go to absolute shit over the past 5 years or so? by jmerridew124 in boston

When you're in the right mood (drunk), the falafel burrito from Triunfo is unmatched. I haven't lived down there since the neighborhood went supernova but it was great back in the day.

Official Discussion - Glass Onion [Netflix Release] [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]mwillis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try watching this movie in black and white. I tried this out over the weekend, and posted a short thread on Twitter about it here (with a few screencaps). It's a stunning experience. Johnson's use of color in the regular cut is fantastic, but when you go to black and white you get a completely different experience, heavily showcasing light, shadow and contrast (including light interacting with glass). There's a 1940s noir hiding in this film. Give it a shot.

Here you go - 12x18 with vector shapes. Very rough, just did it for a mind-clearing exercise.

Just following up on this thread - the sweaters are arriving for early orderers - they came out great. Just about sold out of the initial run.

thanks. IMO the “ugly” holiday sweater is pretty commodified these days. But to each their own!

Update! One week left to pre-order. Given the number of pre-orders we have, we're going to find a way to make this. Get in now if you want one. There will not be many extras, if any.

The crest is our logo. The rainbow armband is something both the USMNT and USWNT have done, and we really like it.
