I was invited onto the rad podcast, Design Downtime, to talk about my passions outside of work to fight back against grind culture and slow work burn out. I obviously picked my special interest Minecraft. Huge thanks to @guysegal.com for having me on and for hosting such an important podcast!

Can anyone with experience in #OBSStudio help me? My "view scene area" is bugged. I can only see a tiny corner of my scenes, regardless of what one I select or how I view it. I have hard uninstalled (deleting all my scenes) and it didn't fix it. All drivers are up to date too. Help! @obsproject.com

My chiropractor Dr. E: remind me why I can't adjust your neck again?
Me: it's a hEDS thing, something about me dying but tbh being on day 5 of a migraine, I'm caring less about the risk
Dr E: yeah but if you die on my table that'll really bum me out
Me: yeah, fair enough

Honestly so glad to see this article after the things I've heard over the years. If anyone was going to handle this difficult discussion with excellent care it was going to be Grant. A very important read! #a11ygaming

So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street

One of the hardest parts of chronic illness is that you can do everything “right” & still have a setback.

You can rest, eat healthy, manage stress & take all your meds & still have a horrible flare.

The loss of control is painful, and a big part of why folks are afraid of people with disabilities

friendly PSA that if you're using shame or panic to get stuff done at work, burnout is waiting under your bed.

that feeling of being right about someone's rancid vibes is UNMATCHED

In less than a few months they destroyed their friend group, ended their friendship with our mutual over being 'betrayed' by them, and left everyone rethinking every single interaction with them

I feel like I could lift a car 😤💅🏻

Got new comfortable activewear from Old Navy. Got my body washes from Walgreens. Found a new salsa at Costco. Purchase all the same groceries for cheaper at QFC.

#Target isn't as special as they think they are. I've easily replaced every item I used to get from them. Target won't even be missed.

Any automated tool that claims to capture 100% of issues is lying.

I’ve seen them and even still I have yet to see any proof that any automated tool can do that.

Sorry not sorry

me: I think I'm ready to get back to work after healing from my autistic burnout and work trauma

my special interest band, Sleep Token: we're releasing singles about getting back in the game, being afraid we peaked, burn out hurting so bad, and wondering if the pain is worth the work

me: ouch 🫠

'number of autistic kids' are going up, like????? sorry autistic people are hot and fuck????
April 18, 2025 at 6:15 PM
as a late diagnosed autistic adult seeing the # of diagnosed kids go up makes me happy because that means they'll be less adults like me who had to learn they were autistic because of absolutely soul crushing autistic burnout. with resources and support I'm sure I could have avoided the worst of it.

This is great news. Shell's presentations and talks do a great job at explaining accessibility concepts. The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines can be daunting for many, and having someone like Shell help designers make sense of them will be a great win for the entire accessibility community.
