I used to listen to chill hop and lo fi mixes while working, but now so much of it is inundated by AI bots. The antidote? Dudes mixing vinyls in their living rooms.

Love seeing full concerts from my favorite bands from high school just popping up. It's wild to think that I just didn't have the internet bandwidth to enjoy this in 2002.

After My Hero Academia and Gachiakuta (very grim shows), One Piece is exactly the palette cleanser I needed.
I put it off forever because of the whole 1K+ episodes, but I just got to the Alabasta arc and I just keep staring at the camera like... Oda-San's on some real shit.

Responsive design is getting better in Figma. Wonder if it's too little too late though, considering virtually none of my peers at startups will even use autolayout lol.

Was just watching this video where the guy roleplayed living as a normal citizen in Cyberpunk 2077... I remember thinking, it sure would suck to live in a residential building with ads in the elevator.
How silly of me to presume this dystopia isn't already here.

One of my favorite follows for a reason. Just constantly dropping wisdom, new rabbit holes for me to drop into.
An easy way to explain luddites:
Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand.
And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before.
That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

Bring a natural hair girly ain't for the weak. You have to be devoted to your self care in a world that rewards urgency and self abandon. Now I'm paying for it with the wash day from hell. 😭
May this nudge you to love on yourself today, and make it a part of your practice in the days to come. 💞

We need media training. We've been embedded in these outrage machines for decades, and still people fall for it every time. Think critically. Am I actually going to change this person's mind (no lol), or give them the attention and therefore power to exert additional influence? Snuff the flame war.
a lot of people debating the merits of that dogshit essay meanwhile the girl’s mom is retweeting demands to ban all trans people from teaching at any level. it’s forest for the trees shit

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

Damn. No lies detected.
This is normal. At one point, the economy was propped up by selling Africans left and right.
It's very American to have an economy based on absolute bullshit (and to have the benefactors of said propping up to be like "it's fine, it's just a bot/robot/slave")

What a bad take. It's gotta be bait. 😂 Every nation depicted was clearly of Asian or Indigenous descent, a deliberate choice by the showrunners. Stories don't need to revolve around us to be meaningful. Some of the best stories are about inanimate objects and animals, but they're still relatable.

Insecure was the first show I saw do this, and then I swear after that, I started seeing it everywhere.
No more Kelly Rowland texting in Excel please. Just show us the texts. 😂
Some producers even try and make cool UIs now, but it was rough for a while. Designing prop UIs sounds like a dream job.

I've been following Andy Bell and Set Studio for a while, and was stoked when Piccalilli added courses. I took Complete CSS last year! It's been a joy applying what I learned.
I would get JS for Everyone and Mindful Design right now, but alas, times are hard here too.
Check em out and pass it on!

Unlike a lot of places in tech, my company, Set Studio/Piccalilli has no outside funding. Bootstrapped is what the LinkedIn people say, I think. It’s been a hard year this year. A very hard year...
