Happy birthday, Frodo. ✨

Y'all... the Band of the Coldstream Guards performed "9 to 5" in front of Buckingham Palace in honor of Dolly Parton.

*slapping both of my eyes* these bad boys can fit so many tears in them

Literally just asked @chronogem.bsky.social this morning if he would still be my collab partner if I were a worm, and he said he would set up a worm cam for future Skrimbo Sesh episodes 🪱✨

tired of the "#1 dad" nonsense. if you're a dad, stop treating it like a joke and post your actual national dad ranking. i'm # 492,018, which is actually really high up there, but more importantly it lets me enter ranked dad lobbies where i can get matched up for fistfights with dads of my caliber

The best people in the world seem grumpy but are magically wonderful. Like Brett Goldstein and the characters he writes and plays. This is my last illusion and I swear if you shatter it--

Okay, this story is a year old, but it's still VERY CUTE:

I rewatched this part with a friend tonight (don't judge me), and Apple had a HEDGEHOG on-screen that I MISSED because of this guy's weird cult vibes. I'm pretty sure that's a felony.

every person watching this just learned that "agentic" is one of their personal icks #wwdc

you can organize my browser tabs over my perfectly organized dead body #wwdc

i am genuinely getting angry at this man for being so excited about siri. we BOTH need to touch grass #wwdc

would you use siri more if it had craig's voice (and hair), y/n #wwdc

how do i get that gore filter as a grown-up, tho? and the time allowances? these seem like great features 🧐 #wwdc

i had to manually add the post office and a dozen doctors' offices to apple maps when I lived in a rural area, but yay, maps of major cities will allow me to know the shapes of trees, lol #wwdc

my head already feels like it's full of bees thanks to the shingles vaccine, so this fever dream of an opener might be the end of me 🫠 #wwdc

There’s a squirrel at the park who has been hurling small branches to the ground for hours, and I like the idea that he’s working on an “open-concept tree.”

This is one of the most quietly revolutionary things any city can do to improve kids' lives & outcomes. If you genuinely care about kids having access to education or safe after school spaces & activities, then fund your libraries, staff your libraries, & make every public school ID a library card.

I truly cannot stop thinking about this.

Today, I watched someone run a red light and then turn into the DMV parking lot, and I'm deeply disappointed that the parking lot didn't magically split open to swallow them whole.

This man is a certified cutie, and I cannot wait to watch this movie 😍

Found some cuties at the park today. 🤍

I opened Bluesky to distract myself from how nervous I am about a job interview this afternoon, and I will be closing Bluesky forever now, thank you

cancelling all of my commitments today to spend more time looking at photos of tiny hedgehogs wearing tiny hats. please understand.

I’m winding down with two clients I’ve been working with since January, which means I’ve got some availability for new work opening up soon. If you need a designer who thinks deeply about systems, teams, and users, AND who will ooh+ahh over an especially pretty serif, I’d love to chat with you!

new pen day 🌸

i have just gotten off a productive call with sauron where i laid out our requests - nazgul bodycams - morgul knife must remain sheathed unless suspect is determined to be carrying the one ring - shelob will be the new point of contact

Nature valentines. This comic is now available as a set of 6 Valentines cards: topatoco.com/collections/...

I didn’t expect to end the year at a hockey game with friends, but honestly, it was pretty great. Cincinnati crushed Indy, the indoor fireworks were actually cool, and the creepy mascot stayed far away from me. Happy New Year, Bluesky cuties! 🪩✨

merry hot chocolate season ✨

this phrase will haunt me for the rest of my life

I am pleased to announce I’ve won the NHL award for Best Picture.

Happy Thanksgiving! 🍂🍁

yes, i have been saving this screenshot for six months, just so i could wish you a lovely thanksgiving that is free from any obblegobblegations

“Heated patio” DOES make more sense to put on a roadside sign, but I was really enjoying the ten seconds when I thought it said “heated potato.” 🥲
