You better hope your email doesn’t find me.

Crystal Lake seeks to answer: what won’t gays watch Linda Cardellini in? And the answer so far is, “apparently, nothing.”

Every year, Descript has a spooky film fest. This year, I used a combination of our generative and traditional editing tools to animate one of my favorite spooky stories: Edward Gorey's Gashlycrumb Tinies (Or After the Outing)

Living in coastal CA, the trash cans outside our cafe are those wildlife proof designs, which need to keep the smartest bear out while staying usable by the dumbest human. As a product designer, I think about how hard that is a lot.

I would like to thank Twilio's marketing department for their stuffed owl swag from AI Engineer world's fair, which is surprisingly durable and has become Wily's favorite toy.

Looking for a song I liked from middle school and this is the album I found it on. 🥀💀

Welcome to Miami Airport, where it is perpetually everyone’s first day on Earth.

I've determined that 2-3 of the ravens that follow me are juveniles demanding their parents still feed them. It's equal parts annoying and cute.

Queer wedding realness. Hot glued and spray painted myself. Call that couture.

Never. Ever. Find yourself owner of a vendor contract at your company. In unrelated news, has anyone successfully gotten their teams off Figma?

I hope it will be like when the barista realizes what they did and gives you the cookie you originally wanted, too, for free.

i will say lindsey graham being asked by a reporter how mitch mcconnell is doing, answering “i don’t know, i’m going to check right now” and then dying is hilarious

If Rule of Three lands this one, it can retire at an all-time career high.

I love an opportunity to paraphrase Bette Davis: You should never say bad things about the dead, you should only say good . . . Lindsey Graham is dead. Good.

Wily loves stick

I bought a Ninja Creami and I’m immediately all about that lifestyle.

Who is the best US-based #designengineer you know, and why haven't you sent them this unhinged video for the role I'm hiring for?

The Mummy would have been ok, if they’d made any effort to have their characters behave plausibly in Act I-II

Do you think we’ll make it to August before everyone who’s writing about integrating agents into your design systems starts writing about how to unslop your design system?

According to my wellness tracker, I had the best night’s sleep in terms of REM and deep sleep in months, but I feel like shit. What gives?

#DesignSystems friends, I'm hiring a #designengineer. It's a weird role, and I'm a weird boss, so I made this kick-off video to introduce both! SF or Remote (US). Apply here: grnh.se/zzirri2l3us

Lil grey fox cutting across our back porch this am.

Is there like an open source email safety course? Sea Ranch is mostly septuagenarians, and based on listserv activity, our critical infrastructure is at severe risk.

I’ve been befriending our neighborhood ravens, and the Nest cam I have pointed at our deck to spot wildlife consistently tags them as “Person.”

After 6 years, Wily learned to fetch.

This single is up there with Book of Mormon with how well it executes the form of that which it is parodying.

Finally got my stimulants after a couple of weeks being off them. It’s about to be like Jekyll and Hyde, but Mr. Hyde is the one who can function in society.

The first pride was a protest, but could this pride be a glass of wine and a little nap under a fuzzy blanket.

Design isn’t just about posting what design isn’t just about anymore anymore.

Of all the things that happen every day, why not it?

Get it, Geena Davis!

Caught up on The Bay and started the Boroughs this weekend. There’s got to be a theme to my weekend viewing. I’m not sure what it is. But it’s definitely there.

The Millennial Trolley Problem

Behave accordingly

When the mental health is hitting like Fiona Apple's 1997 VMA speech.
