Hey APW,
This week marks the first time I’ve been able to work in-person with Meg and Maddie, which just goes to show you how cool it is to be living here in the future. Between staff meetings, panels, and mass amounts of inspiration (and fun), it’s been a whirlwind end to the week at Alt, and you’d better believe that we’ll be coming back home ready to rock this year’s socks off. But first, probably a nap. While we’re away, here’s your open thread, so hop on it!
cheers,
Lucy
