Meme inspired by Slack conversations with Nataliia Burmei.
We all need goals. I really appreciated this week's TWIQ episode that focused on goals, the benefits of stealing a goal, and how to support others as they achieve their goals. I was curious about Bug, Spaceduck, and Space Seagull. So, I asked Nano Banana to generate an image for me that shows the three of them, hard at work, making their goals for the year. Yeah, "Exploring other galaxies" sounds like a great goal to me! Might want to check for spelling, though!
What's yours? I'd love to know what your plans are for 2026.
