It's super frustrating to know that one of my websites gets dinged on accessibility because a Twitter tracking pixel doesn't have proper alt attributes. #MarTech

If I wanted some great PR for my company I think I’d follow H-E-B’s example and donate to food banks, not a presidential ballroom.

Looking forward to seeing the Forney Band in San Antonio at state competition next week. The band tied for first with Waxahachie in the area finals.

Hard loss for @lfcr.bsky.social today. Just couldn’t get all the pieces to connect.
My son, the Man United fan, is gonna be reminding me about it for weeks. 😜

My social feeds are full of ads for mushroom coffee. Is anyone actually buying or using it?

School Spirit Nights at local restaurants feel like a racket when you're trying to save money. For my family of 5 I feel like it would be better if I just give the school $10 and eat at home than spend $60-70 at the restaurant and the school gets $7.

I wish mobile ordering was more advanced at many restaurants. If I’m going to arrive and wait 30 minutes, don’t tell me it should be ready in 5 to 7. Tell me it’ll be ready in 30 minutes. It’s fine if you’re busy, just let me know before I make the drive.
Might help to learn from some pizza joints.

Hey Real Madrid ... why do I have to try and remember my login for your site just to unsubscribe to your emails?

At my son’s band competition on Saturday, one of the bands played the Doxology as their warmup.
46 years in church and it may have been one of the best renditions I’ve heard.
Now I’m wondering if there’s a non-Christian origin to the song and/or why it was chosen.

I'm continually amazed at the lengths people will go to so they can show changes in a Word document, rather than simply using Track Changes.

Everytime McDonald’s or other fast food restaurants ask me to pull into a parking spot to wait on my food I hear, “Thanks for your money. Please move along so we can give these other folks their food first.”

Hypothetical:

Web developers: would you put a UTM or other tracking on your resume to see who's viewing your portfolio sites?
Hiring managers: what would you think if you realized someone did that?

I really appreciate when digital/web/ux designers talk about accessibility in their resumes. I appreciate it even more when they share portfolios and work that backs it up.

There are some days when Apple play and my Subaru don’t like each other. I almost feel lost and disconnected when they’re fighting. Today was one of those days.

94% of teachers have had to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies. An estimated 1 in 6 have second jobs during the school year to make ends meet.

The average Wall Street employee got a record $244,700 bonus last year.

Something has gone terribly wrong.
