I’ve long loved this blog for this sort of thing 👌 usesthis.com

I think you might also enjoy the Quiet Posters feed in that case.

I’m with you, and more with the phrasing of ‘shit design’ (just thoughtlessly exclusionary) rather than hostile design (actively exclusionary) a la en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostile... Although, technically, shit/thoughtless tends to be the norm… so maybe that is ‘normal design’ 🤷

I feel like I’m having some reverse Mandela effects. Things I can remember that are real but seemingly no one else remembers them.

Furthermore, was it just me and some friends that saw this movie that the song was in the soundtrack of? en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peut-%C...

And "the story of a rodent’s unrelenting quest for happiness and fulfilment." Relatable. Brilliant work that I 'enjoyed' revisiting.

Could be interesting to map out the path a project took, alongside imagined possibilities with different events or decisions being made. Kick-off goes well, or terribly. Client team changes completely, or remains consistent. Key stakeholder leaves, or more join in. A D&G like project retro exercise!

On first read… this seems really sensible. It would make a good “Should I use AI” decisions making flowchart, with almost every flow ending up at ‘No’! Which is likely a good thing. A bit like xkcd.com/2267/

A salient reminder of what UCD people should aim for. But, even more importantly I think, it's a brilliantly concise phrasing to remind us of what we're trying to sell to clients, and how boring and skeptical they must feel about it!
