I took this pic through an office window at the end of a wonderful, demanding week being the full time carer of an elderly family member on holiday. Can’t tell you how much it resonates! Made me smile big and wide. It’s okay to both have a nice time and to want to scream afterwards. #introvert

A sketch of a squirrel-like critter standing on two feet, mouth wide open, on a spiral-bound page with the text: "It's been lovely. But I have to SCREAM now."

Here's the same sample list in VS Code and Obsidian, showing how useful it can be to have lines in the search area wrapping, instead of truncating

Is this ironic, or did the tshirt designers really not pick up the errors?? It'd be a great gift for a not-too-observant someone who thinks they're always right and you want their t-shirt to prove otherwise

I've just scheduled next week's newsletter, and the confirmation of the pub date was written in a format I struggle to find words to describe. Stupid, confusing, and insane come to mind. Please, please, US based UX people, write it in full or use the international yyyy-mm-dd standard!! 1 of 2

I made 4 of these as gifts. It’s called the Continuous Calendar and I love love love the flow of it! 10 weeks on display at all times. Pull the next page through every 5 weeks, secure excess paper front + back with the giant pen holder paper clips. #calendar #productivity #analog #planner

Oh the cuteness of tiny Christmas puddings the size of a large marble! These were fun to make #food #christmas

Here, oh #Christmas carollers, is your annual reminder that the word “excelsis” has but 3 syllables. It does not, has never, and will never rhyme with the unit of measuring temperature that is not Fahrenheit. #music In egg-shell-sees deo.
