Wes Cook and the Centralia McDonald's Mural
A personal story about discovering a mural in a McDonald's, an unknown artist named Wes Cook, saving the mural, and a conference talk about the whole thing.
cabel.com
over a year ago, i gave a talk at the xoxo conference about a mural, a mcdonald’s, and a man. (but it was also secretly about life, and legacy, and meaning.)
finally, i’m blogging the full story, with behind-the-scenes details, and a video of the talk.

can anyone who understands math help
with a trade-in and Apple Upgrade, the duo will cost me $25.89/mo for 12 months, or $31.10/mo for 24 months.
why is the 12-month lease payment lower than the 24-month lease payment?!
(if i remove the trade-in, the 12-month lease payment is higher than the 24.)

you just know kevin bayliss made this wrinkle texture in kai's power tools
Wrinkly Kong has always been wrinkly. However, for decades, her Donkey Kong Country 3 artwork was not available in a high enough resolution to see just how wrinkly she was. In 2025, Nintendo Music finally revealed it in a quality high enough to truly see the immense wrinkliness of her skin.

all around the world, over the course of many years, a bunch of white street and parking lights slowly turned blue/purple, when a special yellow phosphor coating that turned blue light into white gradually delaminated. nobody knew this defect would happen, it just took time. i think that's beautiful

a month ago i cold turkey’d caffeine and dropped my many-coke-zeros-a-day habit. (for now!)
the weirdest part is that, after two weeks, “diet soda aftertaste” detectors fully return. i tried a sip of coke zero and it was incredibly disgusting. when you drink it regularly, where does that taste… go?

(but i understand that this phrase has an additional, darker meaning, so its a real weird one.)
