Sounds like he’s a good magician since he just made you disappear

A really good friend is married to a guy who when we met him he was a developer and switched careers to become a magician shortly before they married. At first I had a similar reaction to this. Then he worked on this show, and he invited us and it was the first time I saw him do this. I was really, really impressed. It was absolutely amazing, and entertaining, and you could tell it was impressive quality work all around. I went twice, to take someone else the second time because I'd been so impressed. Both times people came out emotional, crying happy tears; literally. It was that good, it was one of those shows were you felt real things, made you think. Plus he's actually making quite decent money off of it. And he's very very happy doing it. All my walls around this whole magician thing totally fell after that. It can be a legit job, if done seriously.

So what I'm saying is, shelve this with "I'm a writer, in writing a book" category. There's a fat chance this is someone who just doesn't really do anything or doesn't want to do actual work and this is cue for that, but some people actually DO write amazing books and live off it. And some people create amazing magic performances.

Very much 🤡

I went to high school and college with a guy who was into magic. It was always a bit…cringey even if he was decent at it. Fast forward, he now has a huge, elaborate arm tattoo dedicated to magic themes (cards, scull with a top hat, etc). It’s hilarious. He had to live with his grandma for a bit but she’s super conservative so he had to hide this corny ass tattoo from her.

Can't believe I'm asking this — any designers bored of design? It was my constant for the last 15 yrs, half of my life, the rock of my identity. But now, I feel like design is so generic, so templatized, so cookie cutter. Lacking the creativity we were able to do in the old days in the 90's and 00's where we were able to create from scratch a lot, see our creations from our minds come to life on paper, on screen, in our hands.
