2012 Green Party Presidential Candidate
I was browsing to see what was in the works for the election in 2012. ( I can finally vote) and I am very disappointed by this website. That is Kent Mesplay - potential Green Party Presidential Candidates campaign website.

I am not disappointed by what is written, or the issues, or the platform. It is nothing like that. The thing that I am disappointed in is superficial, seemingly unimportant, but I am sure that many will agree with me.
– The website looks disgusting. It looks like it was done in a Junior High School HMTL Class. This is 2009 people, no more off centered text and random links and big ass buttons and solid colors. Where is the flash? Where is the Javascript? Where is the CSS?
I am seriously about to write them an email and beg them to let me design the website. I hate to say it , but this website will not attract people who want to know who Dr. Mesplay is. The lack of organization and aesthetics is going to hurt his campaign.
Thank you for reading! Share your thoughts with me on bluesky, mastodon, or via email.

Occupation and Preoccupation
Here’s Jony Ive in his Stripe interview: What we make stands testament to who we are. What we make describes our values. It describes our preoccupations. It describes beautiful succinctly our preoccupation. I’d never really noticed the connection between th…

As a journalist by training, I have what you might call an addiction to facts. I believe that there are things that are true and things that are not, and that we can determine one from the other through observation, rational thought, and meticulous resear…

This past weekend, I decided to take a trip down memory lane and take a look at the evolution of this blog’s design over the years (with a little help from the Wayback Machine). While I’ve really enjoyed the challenge of making an obsessively backwards co…
