Hello, and happy Monday.

I hope that you all had a wonderful long weekend and holiday. Much of my time was spent resting and enjoying time spent with loved ones. I also managed to go to a thrift store on Friday and find this amazing piece of collage art:

Because last week was a bit shorter, I'm just going to leave you with some links from the past week or so, and I'll be back next week with the usual programming. 😄

🌀 Still consuming.

  • Can most definitely relate to the above.

  • I'm really intrigued by this new social media platform called Somewhere Good. It's definitely giving off 90s nostalgia vibes.

  • "But under Sittoo’s reign, the tyranny of time softened. If the arc of my mother’s days was an upward slope of accumulating tasks, my grandmother looped her hours around a loose collection of duties and diversions." A beautiful essay on the role of tea, time/productivity, and family in a Palestinian immigrant household.

  • I can't tell you how excited I am for the re-release of 1989.

  • If you've been reading tiny driver for a while, you know how much I love horror. This article from the New York Times on the importance of Black horror is well worth reading.

  • Been on a Franny Choi kick recently. Love her website for its thoughtful teaching tools.

  • I came across this collaborative google doc on decolonizing the design world, and I really want to dig into it later next month!

  • The secret to enjoying a long winter.
