The 40-hour workweek was made up. What if we just changed it? I made a new animation about our current burnout crisis and shrinking the workweek: https://t.co/sYTNbayjgW

I'm a big proponent of less meetings. Especially meetings that could have been an email. This is how a four-day workweek can be achieved.

My favorite thing to learn was probably "Parkinson's Law" that states that 'work expands so as to fill the time'. Having a kid made me realize how much time I'd been wasting at work and how efficient I can be when I need to.

Watching @AndJustLikeThat and finally realizing I hate Carrie. She’s that toxic friend who makes everything about her. Was she always this unbearable?

the web: a visual history

A Washington Post investigation reveals that at least seven of the 10 dead after the Astroworld Festival were in one highly packed area of the audience during Travis Scott's show.

Renders of the model were brought into #AfterEffects, where @jackielay and I combined them with annotations to create final animation sequences. And @wneff used renders of the model as a base to create the graphics for the web page.

You may have heard that all logical thinking happens in your left brain and all creative thinking takes place in your right brain, but that’s a myth.

Creativity emerges when different regions of the brain talk to each other.

Vox Explained S3 has launched on Netflix! The Royalty episode is out today, which I got to do most of the graphics for. It was a joy to work with producer @xtinathornell and art director @caressemh on this one
