Extremely proud and excited to have designed this app with such a knee-bucklingly talented team and to see it get featured by @Apple today in the iOS App Store as the GAME OF THE DAY! Sporcle Party: The Trivia Party App. https://t.co/WZEfnFQQjk

Wish of the day/month/year:
That @FiLMiCPro had a Photo button, so I could use the amazing film camera app to take PHOTOS. I could delete a few apps off my phone if it did that.

@dpharr Maybe the dog saw what the other cat was up to.

[Eric Hill @erickhill]

@Danielleri It is for me. And yet others in my office are getting it to load. I seem to be on a bad server pool @trello

@DangeRussWilson @ChildrensColo @WhyNotYouFdn I'm deeply sad you've left Seattle. But I will *always* respect you as a man. Even through all the money talk and drama, you are SO grounded in the things that truly matter. Your generosity is epic. Thank you for being you, Russell Wilson. ♥️ to you forever. (Go Hawks)

@robdaemon I love your wooden slat ceiling, too.

@ethanschoonover The area surrounding The Balls totally feed off the AMZ office peeps in that part of town. Not surprising it's dead on a Sunday. Hop a few blocks west towards the water to find folks. Meanwhile, 46,000 of us were at the Mariners game today south of there. :)

It doesn't seem like the designers at @ESPN have ever had to ponder users with color blindness. They exist.
At least there is a legend to the right...
(I don't have the issue; I have to account for it in my designs now.)

[Eric Hill @erickhill]

@Tayster Oh, I know all about Carlsbad. I "took my kids there" to visit Legoland, after all. :)

[Eric Hill @erickhill]

@Tayster I think it would have been... mid-to-late 90s when Netscape 2 was all the rage. Later that decade I got an Earthlink address and really thought I was hot stuff. (Miss that time in tech when Earthlink was mighty.)

[Eric Hill @erickhill]

@dan_sanderson But you have to find your own way. It's a fun journey. Then, you'll be stuck in your ways. =)

@dan_sanderson If you want the best pour-over cup you should try Milstead. Their tasting notes are silly at times, but sometimes spot on like fine wines. Ratio of grounds to water poured makes a big difference in strength. When using cream, less is more IMO. Just enough to change color.

@danjmcs @netflix I thought that was a pretty good summer action flick. Unrelenting pace.

@Recta_Pete I started falling down that hole, too. Yours was almost a question mark! Wordle 396 4/6

@nytimes Khan will still follow us in there, Cap'n.

@Recta_Pete We've decided this 4th is going to be a sort of picnicky version of Thanksgiving. Like, a mini family reunion - nothing more. We should all quietly kneel for 30 secs before anyone eats, too. Kaepernick style.

Hard to celebrate when the nation has become so backwards.

[Eric Hill @erickhill]

@SweetSinnndy Problem is our system is fundamentally flawed. We give equal rep in the senate to states like South Dakota. 2 senators for <1M people vs 2 senators for >38M in CA., e.g. So all these tiny R states have outsized influence over how the MAJORITY want to exist. It's totally fucked.

[Eric Hill @erickhill]

@dpharr So say we all.

@MikeDrucker My mom did the spankings in the family. And she used the belt (or palm). She knew how to "leave an impression."
