This Tumblr user summarizes something I've been feeling/doing lately. Against everything going on, it somehow feels helpful.

User homoquartz writes: as long as you smile and nod, people are satisfied. it’s just to show that you are nice and there with good intentions. we’re small in a big world and have to rely on other people to be decent to us. so we do our little human dance to each other to say, “i’m not here to hurt you. here’s something we have in common, like the weather or sports or itchy sweaters, so we both know we’re on the same team. we both agree on a basic fact, like that it is rainy or that being itchy is uncomfortable, and this proves we can get along. i’m being light-hearted and non-threatening right now."
Small talk isn't to get to know a person. It's just a greeting to affirm you're buddies in the universe. I am motivated by wanting the other person to know I am friendly, so I have gotten pretty decent at small tall when I used to hate it.

after millions of views and shares of my Portland Frog art. (thank you all🙏🏾) I got requests to highlight priests, and chickens, and Chicagoans, and T-Rexes, and more… all of us who refuse to bend the knee. so this is for US.

When @aceottorney.bsky.social first told me about this I said "this could change people's lives and stop developers from getting exploited" and having seen the final resource, I think I was not wrong. I'd call it a must-bookmark for indie devs.

Libraries are good y'all

Do you have a library card for your local library? No? Could you get one? Cus they do monitor stuff like that when it comes to funding, and again I can't stress this enough: libraries are good

I’m quoted in here, talking about hiring scams. I hope it can help job seekers be more aware of scams, so they can protect themselves.

Never make the bed later.

#comics
#boumeries

A 4-panel comic. I'm washing my bedsheets, taking them off the bed and putting them in the washing machine. As I glance back towards my unmade bed, I think to myself, "Hmmm, I have work to do, I'll make the bed later." But then it's 11pm and I'm going to bed and it's still unmade, I just roll my eyes and say "FUUUUUUU"

In 2023 it took me 5 months and 53 applications to land my role as technical producer at Sanzaru after being laid off by Microsoft.

In 2025, it took 111+ applications and 7 months from when I was laid off by Meta. 30 no replies, 84 rejections, 1 offer.

I'm ashamed to be a New Zealander today, it's embarrassing to be on the wrong side of history :( https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/world/574427/kiwis-can-be-proud-nz-isn-t-recognising-palestine-yet-pm-christopher-luxon #nzpol

Kiwis 'can be proud' NZ isn't recognising Palestine yet - PM Christopher Luxon

New Zealand was among only a handful of countries - including the US, Japan and South Korea - which had not formally recognised Palestinian statehood.
