Update: we did it!

I pulled the trigger and ordered 186 native plants to replace my lawn with, everyone say a prayer for me and my back

This is the way the world ends, not with a bang but with a fart noise and two middle fingers

Read this book!! It will make you feel hope and like maybe we are not destined for the worst outcome!! 📣

I can’t be this mad all the time

We created the art for this super cute holiday game that debuted on Kickstarter today! Already 200% funded and a “Project We Love” 🥹 www.kickstarter.com/projects/chr...

I made a croissant sourdough loaf and I think it might be the perfect version of bread

Speaking of failing at hobbies, I think I accidentally cooked my starter by leaving the “warm” setting on my oven woops

I’m so thankful for getting into hobbies that require trial and error because failing over and over again has reminded me that it’s actually so fun to be bad at something and improve over time

Short answer: no, we’re going to run his ketamine-addled ass out of town

I’ve decided to only post silly inconsequential content here because currently the vibes are so dire I find it hard to hang out very often and I would really like this to be my main internet home

Souper Bowl prep is underway

Oh hey an animation of an illustration I made!

I feel more accomplished about finally making a good looking boule of sourdough than I have about winning any design award ever

I accidentally overproofed and made a breadgina

As someone who has reported on AI for 7 years and covered China tech as well, I think the biggest lesson to be drawn from DeepSeek is the huge cracks it illustrates with the current dominant paradigm of AI development. A long thread. 1/

My local movie theater really messed up not doing a drink special for The Brutalist that’s one of those two feet tall drinks they give you on the street in New Orleans

Got my loaf to make an ear finally!! I picked a great time to get into a distracting hobby that makes carbs

I’ve already tapped the dead tiktok app multiple times today where tf am I supposed to find a sourdough discard bagel recipe now

Baby’s second bread!! Still a little flatter than I want but much improved aesthetically, next time I’ll try stitching the bottom to add more tension/spring while baking

I measure my mental health by what I call The Burnham Scale, aka how often I catch myself humming or singing “That Funny Feeling” to myself in a day. Ideally it’s at 0-1 and I’m clocking a 4-5 right now so I am not doing great!

Baby’s first bread!! I didn’t proof it well or score it correctly but it tastes great anyway

I feel strongly that the universe pushes us toward what we are meant to do, and gives us the tools and opportunities we need when we make moves toward what we’re supposed to be doing. The painful part is when you fight to stay where you’re comfortable and not letting go and letting change happen.

I think we gotta start valuing (and paying for) curation by humans again. We want less, put together thoughtfully.

I’m already seeing an incredible amount of misinformation and disinformation about bird flu - we are not in a good spot for this. If we don’t have another pandemic it will be because we got astronomically lucky.

The overwhelming dumbness of everyone and everything is really getting to me right now

I held out on harvesting all this until today hoping they would maaaaybe at least START to ripen but no such luck 🥲 Lotta fried green tomatoes and chow chow in my future

Made apple + herb sourdough stuffing and acorn squash with mushroom and spinach for my thanksgiving contributions this year 🦃

I appreciate my new design followers (hi nice to meet you!!) but I need y’all to know I will hardly ever post about design, I mostly just want to talk about gardening and chickens maybe occasionally a cool font I like

LISTEN — MemphisCAP to NPR: “These generators are going 24/7, emitting toxic air pollution.” Elon Musk’s XAI *supercomputer* is gobbling up resources in MEMPHIS (“enough electricity for 100,000 homes”) as citizen concerns are ignored.

Gonna be a little whimsical today as a treat

Hello again Bluesky a year later, I forgot my password and was too lazy to do anything about it

The chickens have been put in charge of the pumpkin carving this year

Hello from the new baby chickens Pearl and Rosemary ❤️

I don’t want to learn any more design skills I want to learn how to homestead and make medicine out of wild plants 😤

Really bold of me to have any client meetings scheduled the day I return from a bachelorette trip

Honestly Elon did us all a solid by publicly shattering the myth that being rich means you must be smart or good at business

Shirt that says FontSlut, is that anything

An interesting thing I’ve noticed in getting a ton of chicken content aimed at me by the algos is that a LOT of chicken content is very close to anti vaccine conspiracy and virulent pro gun content

Hello to all my design Twitter mutuals making the trek over here welcome to the skeetstream

Hello treats please

I wish there was a way to adjust the frequency of individual’s posts in your feed, there are some people I’d like to follow but when I do ALL I see is a firehose of their skeets

Yes I just want our design agency to be a neighborhood bar

20s: existential dread, drinking, going out, online too much 30s: all of that but also chickens, gardening, and a native plants obsession

I pretty much only reliably read on vacation so I really try to pack them in, I’m at 2/4 of my book goal so far: The Secret Network of Nature: dry but interesting nonfiction about the unexpected ways different species affect each other, everything is so complicated 7/10

I saw a black bear and three cubs this weekend frolicking in a field at dusk and it was very magical!!

This book was generated by AI

I want to like aperol so much why can’t it taste how it looks

Y’all have any fun display typefaces you’re crushing on lately?
