Weekly Design Links – 11/26/24

Black Friday week is upon us. Wasn’t it just one day before? The deals keep coming, and there is nothing that can stop it. It doesn’t matter if you give in and buy–the deals keep coming.

I bought the mattress at 30% off; I don’t need another one for at least another 10 years. Leave us alone, we have work to do. On to the links, no more ranting.
