I am really looking forward to the Die Antwoord documentary.
Great hike with the cousins in NY this afternoon.
Happy Thanksgiving from William S. Burroughs.
Just printed out a handful of Austin Kleon’s gratitude zines to bring with me to Thanksgiving this year. Should be a fun activity.
There are a few gift guides that I always look forward to. Hint: Wirecutter et al ain’t it. Robin Sloan’s gift guide is one such gift guide. Of course, I want most of it for myself.
Last night, before going to bed, I migrated all of my notes from the various notetaking apps I’ve used over the last several years (iA Writer, Logseq, Craft, Notion, Bear and Tana) into Obsidian. I’m literally all-in now.
I continue to find Thread Reader indispensable for reading Twitter Threads. It allows me to save threads to Raindrop that feels cleaner and, let’s be honest, less icky, than linking to Twitter directly. It also allows me to share threads with others without subjecting them to The Hell Site. It also allows me to save threads as PDFs for permanence. I’ve been using an iOS shortcut called Unroll, Please that wasn’t working anymore due to how Twitter shows web pages inside the Twitter mobile app. I made a little adjustment to the Shortcut that fixed it by simply swapping out the ‘Show web view’ step with simply opening the URL, which instead of trying to open it inside of the Twitter app, opens it in whatever browser you have configured on iOS. Here’s what that looks like.
This design Q & A with Charles Eames is so good. I especially love how short his answers are.
Love him or hate him, Marc Rebillet is kind of undeniable.
