It didn’t happen in September as planned, but my new project, Skate Book Club is live. If you missed the first issue, check it out here. Each month, we’ll bring you some of the best books we’ve found (or unearthed) in the skateboarding community. A huge thanks to my collaborator, Natalie Porter who helped me […]
Well, October is here, and some things didn’t get done. My new little monthly project is live – Phase.001. But the Skate Book Club isn’t quite there yet (any day now). It will happen, all in due time. This post isn’t about all that. We’re here for the links… Web Design/UX/UI The Psychology Behind McDonald’s […]

The link show continues. And, along with the weekly gems, I’ve got a new, more personal, monthly joining the fray. It’s called ‘Phase’ because aren’t we all going through a phase? I had an RPG game phase, a bucket hat phase, and a long hair phase. Facts, but nothing lasted forever. Maybe this new project […]

I’ve been publishing these posts in various formats, on multiple platforms, and with different models (I won’t dare say business) for over eight years. The first post was technically on May 15th, 2016. It was a humble beginning. I promptly forgot to post again until October, 28th, 2016. I was still creating the content for […]
I was lucky enough to attend Config (the Figma design conference) last week and this week is the 4th of July. Work is getting done… somehow. The machine never stops. Take a breath, walk, or whatever you do to give yourself a break. Architecture Fritz Tiny HomesMore living per square inch: Refined tiny homes for […]
This week’s list is a little short. I apologize. This last week caught me off guard and Config snuck up on me too.

Ten links in the usual, wide variety of subjects. I’m tired (writing this the night before). It’s been a long day, so I’m going to cut it short right now. Next week is Config!
