Are there aluminum ashtrays on the tables again?

I fashioned one of those into a necklace bezel as a teen. Good times.

Love the work. Absolutely magical. Takes me back but also brings me into a world beyond my childhood imagination or visual effects at the time.

Agree with you on the collectible. Lame. I grabbed some of those “mini McDonald’s” last month and those were cool as hell…

Eh. I thought their launch work was so much smarter. I guess fully remaking a commercial from the 70s with a worse version of the jingle is an “idea” but it’s always a bummer when a brand gives up and just throws back to the last interesting thing they did because nostalgia.

Like who is actually excited that they’re bringing back old McDonalds IP other than creatives who work on McDonalds?

It’s definitely very well crafted, I’ll give it that.

I don’t understand the nostalgia context to it (maybe I’m not old enough?)

Do you understand it? I thought it visually looked cool. But the collectibles don’t seem great compared to previous things they’ve done.

Just got off the phone with a recruiter who asked me what year I graduated from my MBA program and college and effectively told me I was too old for the role. I do have the 1 year of experience they asked for in the job in question. It's just that I have all this other experience in things unrelated to the role or things I want to deemphasize in my next role. Is there anything I can do? I only list the last 8 years of experience (as it's most relevant) and don't have my graduation years listed.

Does anyone else feel like people who are generally nice in person and on calls sound mean or stand-offish in emails and text/chat?

Or maybe i'm just an overthinking copywriter who's reading into it too much.

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out.

Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️
