Would people be interested in a thread of UX, UI and graphic design resources? Been sharing some fonts and other bits and bobs around but I thought I could make a bit of a thread if people would find it useful ☺️
Okay! 1x Design resource thread coming up! 🫡
For context I've been a UX Designer for ~7yrs and working in games for 4. I'm constantly learning / finding stuff and no magically perfect unicorn ninja design guy but this is some stuff I've found useful! Feel free to add your own stuff in replies! ✨

Working in games means your answer to the question "If you could do anything you wanted in life, what would it be?" isn't a different career, but the same career in a kinder version of the same industry.

The Government is banning new patients from being prescribed the most common form of puberty blocker and is explicitly aligning NZ's future policy on this matter to the UK's. PR below.

The pervasiveness of gambling in sports sucks on truly every level imaginable
The Athletic polled hundreds of players from across the NBA, NFL, MLB and NHL about their opinions surrounding how sports betting impacts players — the responses were haunting.
