I put out a message asking about raising money for my news site, and some Anticapitalist on Mastodon started lecturing me about how the desire to make money and grow a following is somehow inherently bad.

What's kind of crazy is that the level of algebra problems I have to solve now look like the picture below. At the beginning of the semester, I would've thrown up my hands and quit.

Working on a #design study for @wedistribute.org branding and visual language. It’s just a rough draft for now, but it’s fun to think about and sketch out ideas.
I’m a total hobbyist / amateur when it comes to this stuff, but it feels really cool to finally put some kind of foundation down.

My Myspace music player widget is out! The visualizer is just a placeholder and doesn't work yet, and there's still work to be done on multi-track playlists, but it exists and it looks nice!

My dog has this amazing visual calculus ability to know what exact location and angle she needs to be in to completely block my view of my phone. 🥰
