There’s some trouble a-brewin’ and it’s looking like it’s TikTok’s fault. Is it any surprise, given how many people use it, how much information is fed into it every day, and just exactly who owns it? cough CHINA! cough.

So is it really the danger that some of the more paranoid amongst us think it is or is it just some never-ending time-suck? At this point, who knows? One thing’s for sure, though: it’s not something I ever want or need to use for Dandy Cat Design. I’ve got more important things to do with my time and energy than giving myself yet another feed to mindlessly scroll through.

I ain’t no zombie!

There’s a brand spankin’ new blog post waiting for you. It’s called, The Best Squarespace Template (and Why You Should Use It).

Last week was all about leaving Squarespace. This week is all about finding out which template you should turn to first when making a website on that platform. Hey, I did say last week that Squarespace is a great service. Unfortunately, choosing a template to start with is a daunting task. Read this post to make it a whole lot easier on yourself.

We’re wrapping things up with what I’m watching, reading, and listening to this week. It’s a great assortment of media that’s worth your time.
