Starting today at midday UK time. Tune in!
Buy font, do good. This is a great little initiative with a very good cause and you end up with a sexy font from an amazing designer

He’ll be very pleased! He has a new one coming out with Noisy Crow soon but that’s for babies
Some rad illustrators still out there doing the real deal like this one my pal Steve Smith illustrated

No, thank YOU! Write another one
Great. I’m planning a grant application to allow me some time to do a couple courses and have some experimentation time with learning Glyphs programmatically. Keen to see how you get on!
I’m not a user so maybe I’m taking out of my ass haha!
But you can definitely do cool stuff with glyphs

I’m sure there’s a few options but you can get a 30 day trial (or a $50 mini license) for Glyphs which is one of the industry standard apps

I'm starting a radio show in a few weeks, catch it 12-2pm on the 3rd Monday of each month on www.doyou.world
Hoping to drag in some artists I know who work with sound or music to talk about their work. Expect disco, boogie, Balearic and house sounds and a distinct lack of professionalism.
Design Harder, by Erik Carter. A hardcover book with a red cover and black text set in a distinctive ultra-bold serif font
Design Harder by @erikinternet.bsky.social
A rallying call for more criticality and ethics in graphic design. A great read.
The cover of Killing Thatcher, a book by Rory Carroll
Killing Thatcher, Rory Carroll. If only that chimney stack had fallen another way…
The best finale of any race all season didn’t fail to deliver. Nothing gets my heart racing like the end of MSR!
The cover of Maisa in Webland: Detouring UX Destinies
Maisa in Webland. A curious and confusing book. There are some great ideas and interesting passages. The writing style is a bit off key (and riddled with errors in places). But I’m glad I read it. It also feels beautiful in the hand, as a book designer I found it weirdly satisfying to hold.
Author Elliot J Stocks is interviewed by type design Jamie Clark in front of an audience in a bookshop
Congratulations on the book Elliot. I lurked at the bag and had to shoot off after the interview but I got a couple snaps
A crappy paper/card/wood model of a desk with turntables, a mixer and CDJs
If you're wondering how my day is going the site I'm working on remains untouched but I now have a model of the new turntable setup I'm planning..

My mum and brother live in Lostwithiel now. Small world!
No way, I grew up in Fowey!
St Blazey? I did not expect to read that name on here. Are you from around that way?
Oooh, count me in
1 million percents. Had to buy a second copy because the first one got reduced to dust
If? When!
Installed and working on an Astro project. Working beautifully so far
Amazing, I didn't spot that on my rushed scan through! Yes some of the jobs I'm using tailwind to process tokens have the clamp values copied straight from utopia, or they did until now!
Will Sugarcube pass a string like 'clamp(0.875rem, 0.8533rem + 0.1087vw, 0.9375rem))' through to the generated CSS variable as-is, or will it reject/transform it?
