An incredible copywriting moment.

My friend @michaelsteeber knows I love a good packaging redesign, and spotted this unusual label revision. Why are they switching the wording to the version in the second photo? What happened?!?

Well. When you're ready for the answer, open the second post…

Also, final update?, when I went to paste the URL to the donation records in the last post, at first I accidentally pasted the movie poster for the movie C.H.O.M.P.S*. This seems important…

Update: it was, in fact, a different Tim Cook who donated to Biden's inaugural fund[1]. 😌 I wonder how Tim would answer the question: “why are you donating to this one, but didn’t donate to the last one?”. That’d be fascinating to see.

(Also: I really, truly empathize with anyone who can’t just up and leave a job for purely ethical reasons — money is complicated and life situations even more so. There are no easy answers in life.)

(Re: Tim Cook donating to Biden’s inaugural committee, I tried to do some digging. He's not mentioned in any articles I could find[1], but he is present on the donor list[2], although they say he’s from Michigan? Is it a different Tim Cook?)

• If you work at Apple, can you really keep working there in good conscience after Tim Cook’s $1M payola to Trump?

• Or do you just tell yourself it’s not your problem, and just the cost of doing business in America? Which, maybe it is?

• But… is it? Or is it the cost of running a business as big as Apple is… with a president as self-serving as Trump?

• Should a business even be as big as Apple?

• How much did Tim Cook donate to Biden’s inaugural fund?

I’m left with lots of questions.

We bought a “Mini Brands Retro” toy capsule and I am absolutely delighted by this tiny tiny tiny 3M floppy disk

i’m embarrassed to ask this, but what does this new yellow Mail swipe action do? Is it “Mute”?

I looked in Prefs to try to teach myself, and it’s not even listed as an option!?

sometimes i think about how lunchables were for adults. they even included a little squeeze pack of dijon mustard and a mint! they were for busy workers! i think the kid thing really surprised them.

hilariously, we’ve come full circle: now kraft-heinz is trying lunchables for adults again.

We recently ate at Chang’s Mongolian Grill, a PDX childhood classic. The guy working the grill i could swear has done it my whole life. Quirky, kinda judges your bowl, does theatrical spins on the greasy grill floor when he hands you your plate.

I asked how long he’d been working there: 46 years.

That said, I do like it when it’s so wrong it’s funny. But it once summarized a conversation with @mantia, where we were both praising John Williams’ christmas music, as us saying his music was “overrated”, and frankly that is UNACCEPTABLE

I flagged this when it happened to me in beta, and nothing changed, because it can’t change, right? It can’t tell. I’m heavily leaning towards Apple Intelligence being a genuine security risk for all users…
