Evening walk at Vasona Lake County Park in Los Gatos, California

If you didn’t get hugged enough as a kid, you won’t find what you’re looking for from me. That’s not my gig and I’m not attuned to it. On Zodiac I had a conversation with Jake, and I said, “I guarantee I’m going to make a good movie out of this. You can decide if you want to be the weakest thing in it, or you can decide if you want to show up.”

If you’re gonna be

Feeling guilty for complaining about first world problems is the ultimate first world problem.

I wonder if he
can breathe with all that fury
building around him.

Hi Lightroom team,

I’m glad I could get started with Lightroom mobile. I love using Lightroom mobile. On a flight, I lightly used Lightroom mobile on a photo of lightning, slightly lightening highlights in Lightroom mobile.

Don’t get startled, Lightroom team, but your polite, delightfully enlightening promo highlighting how to get started with Lightroom mobile is getting starred.

Lightheartedly,
Chris “Getting started with Lightroom mobile” Rhee

PLEASE DO NOT REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE.

This is a man-made
fucking catastrophe of
epic proportions!
