That demo video is max-cringe, they could have done something real-world and it would have been far more interesting

Was fortunate to see them in Dublin during this run, I'll never forget the energy in the crowd during Made of Stone.

@eikedrescher.bsky.social Hey Eike! Do you have any plans to bring Queue to the web? Some sync between iOS and a web app would be great.

or: a gentle nudge to pause and take a break from your screen—an opportunity to step away, stretch, and reset. A reminder that even our most essential tools need downtime, and so do we. A small act of self-care, woven into the rhythm of our digital lives.

In 2008, Ecuador became the first nation in the world to legislate on behalf of water, “since its condition as an essential element for life makes it a necessary aspect for existence of all living beings”. The same rights should be afforded to Lough Neagh, people need to be held accountable.

Is a river alive? What about a lough? Lough Neagh is the largest fresh water lake on the island of Ireland and in the whole of Britain. It supplies 40% of Northern Ireland's drinking water. Toxic algae caused by agricultural run-off and a lack of environmental policy is killing our lough.

Strange, given how it's probably quite important to sales.

You absolutely love to see protected cycle lanes in Belfast.

Some new work: last week we finally launched the new Carhartt WIP (Work In Progress) website. I've been working on this for a long time and very happy to see it go live (big shout out to the whole crew! 💚). Check it out: carhartt-wip.com
