14 notes. Back to the latest.

  1. Oh for the optimism of someone resending their Black Friday email because the first one had a broken link

  2. Mastodon

  3. I’ve been using xscope since ~2009 (mostly to check hex codes). Can’t remember how much I paid back then but I’ve got more than my moneys worth, and now it’s only $20 for its 20th birthday

  5. Did they just… turn the 5 upside down to make a 2?

  6. Just saw an ad for rugby in the US with the headline “No pads. No helmets. No fear.” and maybe it’s the covid fever but I find that hilarious for some reason.

  7. New York does not suffer amateurs lightly.

  8. New York: where guys shave their pubes at the sink of public bathrooms, apparently

  9. And so it begins

  11. Anyone here attending RGD Design Thinkers in Toronto today/tomorrow?

    Mastodon

  12. Going to be in NYC next week, any design events on I should check out?

  13. Almost sadistically curious to discover what horrors YYZ customs & baggage has in store for me today

    Mastodon

  14. Oh hi Toronto, looking good
