Did a travel up to Newcastle this morning and forgot that it isn’t blazing sunshine and thirty degrees everywhere
Does anybody I know have a tattoo that they got for a band they love and would be interested in writing a couple of sentences about why you got it and what it means to you for a zine article for @nothingsoundsgood.bsky.social?
Finally did a little update to my homepage, including a creepy photo that follows you, some fun riso css that is practically unreadable, and some projects I've been working on (the good bit). www.lurkmoophy.com
In honour of how hot it is I did a little pen that melts text on hover using SVG filters and CSS: codepen.io/editor/lurkm...

Been playing with riso effects in CSS and pretty happy with what I'm getting to here. I had to put the background images inline, so it's a bit messy, but should convey what I'm talking about... codepen.io/editor/lurkm...

Things I want in Figma Motion: The ability to animate points in a vector.
Playing with shaders and motion in Figma and there's some cool shit you can do. Is it useful though?
Well, at least now I can look forward to the lyrics of the next @loscampesinos.bsky.social album... ⚽
Whoever is staffing the guardian live commentary is doing a great job
I feel like the weather app is gaslighting me. It says it's 24 degrees outside but it feels like it's about 10.
Startup idea: I sit around in my pants and make terrible music and the government pays me.
Petitioning for school hours and holidays to keep going once you're in a job. I don't know about you, but I feel like I deserve 6 weeks off right now.
Testing out a new poster for bluesky, so here goes a test post. Does it work? Who knows.
PSA that putting arbitrary requirements in your password validation is FUCKING ANNOYING. It needs to have a number! It needs to be 12 characters! It needs to include a special character (but not all special characters)!
Our festival website www.indiefjord.com has had a major refurb done by super designer @lurkmoophy.bsky.social!
Sharing for the Monday crowd because I'm proud of it
Luke Murphy@lurkmoophy.bsky.social · 2mo agoI spent way too much time over the last couple of days pulling together all the @loscampesinos.bsky.social football references for the @nothingsoundsgood.bsky.social zine, so I thought I'd put it into a digital zine page on my website. Enjoy! lurkmoophy.com/blog/los-cam...

Post-gig blues (and exhaustion) kicking me hard in the face today. It's ok to just curl up into a ball during meetings, right?
