The molecule used to make acrylic yarn, knitted in 100% wool. Genius & relevant to my interests. 💯 Thanks @tinypang! https://t.co/0yx5viSsBa
@tinypang You just sent me down a rabbithole of knitted pie charts and data visualisations. SO MUCH COOL STUFF.
I wonder how many Pokemons are being caught in the C2S today?
@mootpointer I heard they dropped the speed for hatching eggs, so you probably didn’t get credit for those either. 🙁

@catehstn I just read it. Interesting. Ties in to a thing that’s been rattling around my brain too. I realised recently that I have a site
@catehstn that’s been running for 20 years. TWENTY. Nothing I built professionally lasted more than maybe two, tops.
@catehstn So much of what we build disappears. I like the idea that we can also build things that last and be useful and not a novelty.
Lovely big photo of @GRobilliard @kouky @toolmantim @stephenlead 😀 https://t.co/K6P5uW3dPq
@catehstn Thanks! I’ve been workshopping a talk and submitted it to a few events. It’s still evolving. 🙂
This is genius. Well done, @webdirections! https://t.co/7IIHRfEBnb

@lemon_lime The trailers look terrible. Also, that song is terrible. And you are terrible.
@lemon_lime I will admit, however, that as soon as I figured out what movie it was, I went “PASS-A-MA-QUODDY!” And Rodd’s like, WTF.
@nconnaughton @i386 You’re an HGTV reality show WAITING TO HAPPEN, DARLING.
Things 2016 Me has seen that would surprise 1996 Me: seeing @kelleydeal retweet @TanyaDonelly about a new Belly tour. (2016 is pretty cool!)

@gusseting @NodeGirlsSydney Holy shit, REALLY? That’s ridiculous. Yeah, progress I guess.
