Radiohead's “The King of Limbs” has quietly crept into my top ten most played albums.
I think it's a highly underrated album. The last three tracks (“Codex”, “Give Up The Ghost” and “Separator”), both separately and as a unit, are truly magical.

I no longer set a reading goal for a number of books. The only goal I care about is to read every day, whether it's 10 minutes or 60 minutes, just steady reading does the trick!

*invests in the variable font files of Degular, soon implemented across my website*
Loving Rob Weychert’s latest article about using variable fonts to achieve consistent stroke widths across type and screen sizes. And he extends it to icons, making them feel like part of the same system, something I’ve always struggled with. Excited to try this!

First time this has happened to me, I think, and I’ll say there are few things more exciting than finishing reading a book on NYE, so you can start a new one on January 1st.
The possibilities!
