@domesticetch @nstlgiaxpress yup.

[Critical Thought @hpstr_nyc]

@nstlgiaxpress By far the most ill informed piece of design clickbait i’ve seen this year. In what world does OK-RM occupy the same graph as multiple ad agencies?

Why on earth would you name your company Mouthwash.

[Critical Thought @hpstr_nyc]

@JackMarshall @RGA yup

@RGA is this a fking joke?

@jessicawalsh Jubel is not an Italian word, it’s German. And the font is clearly a derivative of Gill Sans Ultra which should be mentioned. At least do a bit more research before developing your font descriptions.

Says the guy who took Metahaven’s aesthetic and remixed it in a Berghain K-hole session. Easy now on your rip-off crits. You yale bois are such a sensitive bunch.

still cant get my mind around the fact some horrid little shit just took Eric Hu's very well known Satie graphic from 10 years ago, fucked it up a bit because they're a talentless cunt with no imagination who couldnt have made it in the first place, and launched a consumer brand

@Soengle @Prototypr Dropbox didn’t date well

You WILL eventually regret buying that trendy ink trap font

Designers who only buy Dinamo fonts un-ironically wear bucket hats.

@TweetsByTBI and it’s identical to @lineto_com Circular 🥵

“optimal accessibility”

@leoportooo @flpr Boy this seems to have escalated. 🫠🫠🫠. I’m just here to apply some critical thinking 🧠. Maybe people are now more informed before they submit to award shows. That’s one positive that could come from this exchange. Ask what do I want to achieve by possibly winning/submitting?

[Critical Thought @hpstr_nyc]

@leoportooo @flpr It’s a slippery slope. Felipe deflected a comment on the negative effects of competition into a whataboutism on personal immigration issues. Classic debate move! it’s OK to seek trophies and it’s OK to ridicule seeking trophies. No need to be defensive about winning🥇

@urboib @leahschm @domesticetch At least the receipt looks like an Actual Source t-shirt
