For work, I created some Rick and Morty assets for social media to go with our new Rick and Morty crate.
I created them myself and posted them on Loot Crate’s channels. Then this happened!

I debate Dallas Braden about Tom Brady’s swag
As an A’s fan, Dallas Braden has always been one of the cool guys. He represented Stockton. Hew threw a perfect game. He hates A-Rod. All good with me.
But he also has some opinions. Whatever, not a big deal. But today, he had an interesting opinion that I disagreed with.

Shura should be your new favorite artist because she’s so helpful to me
This is my favorite song from Shura, whose fame is starting to rise. I like this song so much, I had it on repeat. I shared that news and she liked it!
Shame on you Twitter for replacing the ‘favorite star’ for the ‘like heart’
If you haven’t heard the news, Twitter has replaced the star for “favorites” and replaced it with a heart for “likes” throughout all their platforms including Vine.
Here is their official announcement and release:
https://twitter.com/twitter/status/661558661131558915
We are changing our star icon for favorites to a heart and we’ll be calling them likes. We want to make Twitter easier and more rewarding to use, and we know that at times the star could be confusing, especially to newcomers. You might like a lot of things, but not everything can be your favorite.
The heart, in contrast, is a universal symbol that resonates across languages, cultures, and time zones. The heart is more expressive, enabling you to convey a range of emotions and easily connect with people. And in our tests, we found that people loved it.
You’ve embraced hearts in a big way on Periscope, and we’re delighted to bring them to Twitter and Vine, making them the common language for our global community.

RIP Twitpic — you done changed the game
What bums me out about this news, which I had heard about a month ago, was that I am losing out on one of my favorite things on Twitter.
As much as I use Twitter’s own photo sharing features, Twitpic was the first ever such I used back then. I didn’t do Instagram and what made Twitpic stand out were two things.
One was that I could send my images to Twitpic via my email and it would upload automatically for me and tweet it. Second thing — and this is what I will miss the most — is that the GIFs I uploaded worked so well with Twitpic. On my Tweetdeck, the GIFs would automatically play. I didn’t have to click and go to a page on my browser. It would just play in my column.
Twitter’s “GIF” feature doesn’t do that on Tweetdeck. In fact, their “GIFs” aren’t even that. They are SWF files. Cheaters.
Farewell Twitpic. I never imagined my Twitter experience would not have you around. This bums me out.

I may have unintentionally deceived the Internet with my #RE2PECT tweet
OK, I am pretty proud of my unintentional viral photo.
This didn’t happen. I photoshopped it. It was an idea that popped into my head during Derek Jeter’s last home game. There were discussions of how Jeter had a double that helped start the rally to tie the game at 2-2 in the first inning.
The constant talking about his number and the hashtag #RE2PECT gave me an idea. So I awaited the top of the second inning and looked at the pitch count. Then I awaited for the actual possibility of the influx of 2s to appear. It never happened. But I wanted it to happen. With all this talk of 2s and how everyone is praising Jeter for all the wrong reasons, I opened up my Photoshop, grabbed some screenshots from the game, then just made it myself.
I didn’t think much…
