Hey, @petemrogers.bsky.social if you ever run out of ideas for jersey designs, may I suggest the Minneapolis public transit seat pattern?

Rewatched No Country for Old Men recently and have been eating eggs with tomato slices every morning since.

Tommy Lee Jones is sitting at a table in a diner with fried eggs and tomato slices on the plate in front of him.

I left sanfranciscointernationalbookclub.com open for a long time and was very pleased when I came back to that tab.

A website I built for a client years ago has recently added a project involving Chip Gaines. I've never been so proud.

Becoming a watch guy has got to be my most mid 30’s trait.

I distracted myself tonight by copying and pasting enough javascript to figure out how to display my latest scrobbled Last.fm song on my website.

Pushed a fairly big update to my site last week. A new project or two, and I've started a writing section. More to come, but looking forward to making it more of an evolving and interesting place. — — — www.p-n.studio
