Hopped in on an R1 for Rock Dove, and ended up bringing it to the finish line.

Fun way to freshen up the ol' book:

For every lap around the sun, I make a point to sneak in some turns. Still a blast, ~decades~ later. Here’s a little clip:

Who else is still at it?

Using @figma Make to build my new @kit newsletter, and I'm blown away.

This is fun.

Niche tweet, but Figma’s running a HubSpotty playbook. 1+1=3

It was pretty encouraging to see so many big designers jamming at last week's Canva conference. I'm keen to trial Affinity apps this week to see what's up.

If we're making the switch, what are we using instead of After Effects?

In Figma, I wish comments stayed tethered to the pixel they were planted on, rather than the canvas. When chipping through notes, things usually shift.

Plz tell me this is user error on my part

If you spot me at @creativesouthga, stop me for stickers

This week's G-Shock. It’s a fun, nostalgic one to wear.

Can someone check on BON IVER'S, kEYBOARD?

It’s apparent some of this adobe code is older than me.

I wish I weren’t so afraid of an affinity learning curve.

using the TinyPNG plugin in Raycast feels like magic.

any other Raycast plugins you can't live without?

whoa, just un-sent an email what a rush

Forgive me for waxing poetic here. Just wanna give a shout to the 4:3 rectangles that inspired me, pushed my work, and built a lil tribe.

It ain't that anymore, and that's okay—maybe it doesn't have to be. But it was a vibe ✌️🏀

Really want to speak at a design conference someday, but honestly I'm barely pulling off new stickers to socialize with
