inMy $40 mistake with a 'quick-dry' bookbinding glue
Tube kind works fine for me, less messy than the brush on stuff. @kai_webb91 is right, the cure time is fast and the smell isn't as bad as the old stinky glue I used. Can't beat that solid bond it makes on leather.

inCan we talk about those expensive foam cannon setups?
My neighbor actually went all out with one of those electric foam cannons that hooks up to a pressure washer. Spent like $200 on the whole setup. First time he used it, the foam was so thick it clogged the nozzle and he spent 20 minutes trying to unclog it while the soap dried on his car. Meanwhile I'm over here with my $8 bucket and a sponge, laughing. Your mileage may vary but I think people overthink this stuff sometimes.

inWarning: That portfolio showcase event at the convention center last month changed how I organize my layers
Oh man, "stuff" and "more stuff" is still way more organized than my "good one" and "dont delete this" folders I've got lying around. I swear the chaos is part of the creative process until you have to hunt for that one layer three months later and your past self was clearly out to get you!

inI used to think deepfakes were obvious until my cousin got fooled by one
Marking photos with dates in file names helps me keep track. I set up folders by year and month so old vacation pics don't blend in with new ones. Makes it way harder to accidentally repost something from years ago.

inJust realized I was feeding Midjourney my own photo references when I should have been using them as style guides the whole time
200 images of confusion and despair, sounds like a real bonding experience with your laptop. Did it at least buy you dinner first before rejecting you like that?
