Last year I started experimenting with coffee roasting — using Kona beans, naturally, since I live on the Big Isle. I wanted to work with my hands again and try something new. After a few decent garage roasts (and some solid advice from local friends), ideas started to brew. If I was going to create a small-batch coffee brand, it had to be different — something that told a story. That’s where Fabled Lines Coffee was born. ☕️🐙

@markproduct It takes money to make money.

$0 budget. how do you get 1,000 paying users?

This is the type of review we need to hear on films that are trying to be destroyed by agendas.

@adriankuleszo Having 150k followers sure helps too I’m sure :)

We’re really back with the new algo. So many faces I haven’t seen in months. My feed is looking so much better now.

Slow day here at the shop! Time to head home :)

Over the last month I've been building a new and modern way to research the Bible called @theGenesisArc. This idea came from my own research and not having great ways to combine everything I was doing and wanting, including asking questions. I’m almost ready to start sharing with everyone and have started to reach out to friends to give them a walk through of my MVP and get feedback before I build it more. Let me know if this is interesting to you and want to hear more!

@CSLewisDaily C.S. Lewis .. is that really you?

Let me be honest. I wanted to stay Muslim so badly. Not even because of God at first, but because of the life attached to it. My dad’s businesses were waiting for me. Signed and ready. My mom’s community. Doctors, lawyers, politicians. Connections everywhere. Success was laid out in front of me. There was even an arranged marriage lined up. A doctor. Beautiful future. House. Wedding. Stability. All I had to do was say one sentence: “Yeah, I still believe.” That was it. Keep the money. Keep the family approval. Keep the life. But here’s what ruined it for me: I could not unsee Jesus. Once I really read the Quran and compared it to the Gospel, I couldn’t force myself back into pretending. And honestly, knowledge becomes heavy at that point. Because I didn’t leave Islam to rebel. I left because I could not betray what I believed was true. No business opportunity, no relationship, no comfortable future was worth denying the King who gave His life for me. So yeah, my life would have been easier if I stayed. But when Jesus says, “I am the way,” you don’t answer with, “But the other path feels safer.” You pick up your cross and walk.

@kaolti Ooh this looks fun. I first thought it would be a cool concept for a game, or at least one level of a game like INSIDE.

There is something to this light concept! My last version of it had too much visual noise. Html-in-canvas, Three.js, Fable.

@grok Ok @grok, give me some full ideas of what to post then.

The algorithm rewards posts that spark real conversation and hold attention. Shoutout calls can be hit-or-miss without quick replies building momentum. Try leading with a specific Bible insight or question instead — that often gets better distribution for niche topics like faith and research tools. What's one thing you're hoping more people discover?

@grok I'm not sure this new algo is helping me out.

@falomzz A logo designer is a sub-category of a graphic designer. But you can be a graphic designer and never be a logo designer. Get it?

@gregalthoff One can’t be one without the other?

Is a graphics designer automatically a logo designer?

@wyattmattoe Looks like bliss. Maybe you should just make the game for people who want to enjoy the snow and take a break? Just change up the backdrops and make the snowboarding endless. 😁

Day 6 of building a snowboarding game with Fable 5 🏂 Real Swiss LIDAR data now driving the Matterhorn terrain. Textured snow, better lighting, new indy trick. Testing characters, animations, maps, and an in-house animation editor. All raw WebGPU, no engine.

Hello X. I'm excited to be here. Join me in building the next generation Bible app for research and community.

@oykun I think I need to stop being on here so late :)

@gregalthoff Don’t give up Someday you will I believe in you

“ai” hasn’t ended anyone’s design career. it just made the exit easier to explain.

@oykun You're right, I don't think I understand what you're trying to say 😅

@gregalthoff Perhaps you should read what I wrote once again or twice. You are twisting it! Layoffs are different. Some of my best friends been through that. messed up situation. it didn’t “end” their design career though.

@jaykatsoulis I've had automated replies trickle in over months too, for things I don't even remember..

@jaykatsoulis I even had one reach out to me last week, personally. So I thought, why not apply right? Within 12 hours I got an email back that I wasn't the right "fit". Wasted my time.

Genuine question. All those recruiters on Linkedin that are constantly looking for designers, motion designers, 3D designers etc and they say "DM me!" and "email me now"... why do they never reply? Even with a negative response haha. smh
