Finished ‘House of Cards’. So good! Intrigued to watch the original British version (by the same creators) — en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_…
Just posted a rough mix of a new song and blogged about it on elliotjaystocks.com/blog/studio-di…
Oh dear. This is what happens when you work together but tweet before speaking: cloud.elliotjaystocks.com/OwZA
My favourite part of my bookshelf: flic.kr/p/ej4Wy2
Respect to Angelina Jolie for choosing to have a preventative double mastectomy and for writing about it in @nytimes: nytimes.com/2013/05/14/opi…

Has anyone got any recommendations for a great place to get nice, simple wooden (real wood) desks? Any custom-crafters? UK-based a bonus.
Managed to steal away an afternoon for some music-making. Here’s my set-up: flickr.com/photos/elliotj…

Wow! Our friend @TimonSingh has sneaked his way into the chilli eating competition run by @CliftonChilli. This is going be fun!

We’re on our way to @grillstock Bristol for BBQ meat, craft beer, and Cajun music. I may very well explode with joy.
A quick blog post about our new event ‘Insites: ConfShop’, and why you should come along: elliotjaystocks.com/blog/you-shoul…
(The foreground beers are the same single-hopped IPAs from flickr.com/photos/elliotj… )
Pretty excited about cracking open these @brewdog bad boys tonight: flickr.com/photos/elliotj…
Walked into the office to find Mrs. Stocks has put on Alice In Chains. This bodes well for our office-sharing. :)
Loved ‘Star Trek: Into Darkness’. Better than I expected, even. I generally prefer more serious sci-fi, but hey, it’s Star Trek. It’s fun.
This: @zeldman: ‘It sometimes seemed to me that […] the people and thinking behind Typekit are now running Adobe.’ zeldman.com/2013/05/08/ado…
A little guest post from me on the @typekit blog: ‘Pocket Guide to Combining Typefaces’ — j.mp/10Gx2lh
AND EVERYTHING WILL BE ALL-CAPS!!! (Not really.)
Yes, the type will be bigger.
Making some much-needed tweaks to my site.
You know all that cool stuff @nytimes have been doing of late? They want more designers! ajo.bz/jc/16907 #authenticjobs
Very proud to be in ‘Kern and Burn: Conversations With Design Entrepreneurs’, a book by @iamtimhoover & @jkheltzelkernandburnbook.com
Correction! @brewdog aren’t at @grillstock — it’s the Brooklyn Brewery. Still good news, though. /cc @samkabam @TimonSingh
Just got our tickets for the @grillstock BBQ festival on Saturday! grillstock.co.uk/bristol-festiv… Meat… Cajun music… @brewdog beer… oh wow.

Also, I would like to offer this to everyone who said Adobe was going to fuck up Typekit: bukk.it/umad.jpg

Very soon, at #adobeMAX, @veen is going to announce some very exciting @typekit news. Follow the live stream at tremolo.edgesuite.net/clients/1086_a…
I don't know what caused such nice weather, but DON'T MOVE just in case it was you

Ah, happy Sunday, folks! :) What a glorious, sunny, relaxed weekend it’s been. Hope everyone’s weekends have been the same?
In the office this morning, @samkabam and I have been discovering Junip (Jose Gonzalez’ band). Lovely stuff. open.spotify.com/artist/7HcipAI…
Tweeting about a TV show that has already aired nationally to millions is not a ‘spoiler’. Watching it later? Then don’t read Twitter. :)
Not ashamed to admit that in recent weeks I’ve become a massive Masterchef fan. Congrats, @NatalieColeman1 (and please open a restaurant)!
Celebrating @samkabam’s first day of freelancing (and the release of @8faces #6) with some cocktails! (@ Browns) 4sq.com/YeF8Ff
Thanks for the kind words, folks! Massive thanks to @TrentWalton, @raygunray, @davatron5000, and @keirwhitaker for their work on the site.
Just two minutes late, we are now LIVE!!! 8faces.com
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! (The sound of last-minute, tax-related bugs.)
Activate last-minute, pre-launch panic mode! (A new 8faces.com in 30 minutes!)
Or ‘excited’, even. There’s something about tweeting about @reasonsto — I always make typos! :p
So edited to be speaking at ‘Reasons to be Creative’ in September. Tickets are now on sale! j.mp/reasonsto #r2bCreative @reasonsto
So excited today for my wife @samkabam: it’s her last day of full-time employment before she joins the freelance crowd! :)
Just an iPhone shot for now, but here’s a preview of @8faces #6’s de-bossed cover! instagram.com/p/YsoG8lgi4V/
