Replaced the massive white desktop on my desk with a warmer wood(ish) one. To balance out the tidy photo, there’s also this extremely mid cable management.
A wooden desk with a monitor, microphone, mechanical keyboard, trackpad, water bottle and Mac. The underside of a dead with extension leads, cables and a microphone signal booster, all coiled and fixed to the desk.

My day today
A 3-panel comic of a man sitting on a tiny island in the ocean, with a message in a bottle approaching. In the final panel, the man opens the message scroll to reveal “Would you like to try Slack AI?”
