🧠 Get your facts straight

→ Learn more about what you are afraid of. For example, a plane wing can bend up to 8 meters (26 feet) without it being a problem.

→ Open up Flightradar24 and zoom out. Seeing how many planes are in the sky at any given moment helps put the risk into perspective.

I'm looking for resources to help me improve in the "design" part of #webdesign.

I'm comfortable building websites, but want to get better at making design decisions. Think layout, typography, color choices, etc.

If you have any recommendations—books, courses, etc.—I'd love to hear 'em!

Psst, hey you. Wanna use an em dash ("—"), aka "the forbidden hyphen" like all the other cool kids?

Hold the Alt key, then type "0151" on your keyboard's numpad.

You're welcome.

(For its little cousin, the en dash, type "0150" instead.)

I read "On Writing Well" by William Zinsser so you don't have to.

Here is a 🧵 of the absolute best #writing advice it has to offer:

Well that’s a fucking lie…

I just watched the presentation by @noeltock.bsky.social at #WCEU. He runs a charity rescuing dogs on the frontlines in Ukraine (Dog Help Kharkiv). Part of his talk were videos of his work and the work of other charities in the region. I genuinely teared up.

So, @netflix.com let me get this straight:

Because I am in another country where you don’t show ads, I can’t use my plan while traveling?

Plus, I can’t even watch the videos I downloaded at home anymore because I went online?

Is there anything more impersonal than #hotel hallways?

Did you know Google Docs supports #markdown? I only just found out. It means you can create headings by putting # in front of it:

# This creates an H1 heading
## Automatically becomes an H2 heading
### For H3 headings

And so forth. Makes things so much faster.

You're welcome, carry on.

Of all the #fashion trends to make a comeback, the one I would not have bet money on was the fanny pack.

What's your favorite book on #writing?

I am currently reading the excellent "On Writing Well" by William Zinsser. It is both inspiring and highly practical. To the point that I am planning to do a summary/review post after I am done with it.

What book did that for you?

NOW HOLD THE PHONE THERE!

You mean to tell me that "three lions", the football anthem, was written by these two geezers from Taskmaster???

HOW DID I ONLY JUST NOW FIGURE THAT OUT?!
