I’ve been thinking a lot about the fact we never see anyone do things imperfectly anymore - how only perfection is to be shown. I always love seeing things that aren’t perfect, that keep their human touch. It makes me feel more like I can be my flawed self as well

St. Lucy'd day today, this is a surprisingly big deal in scandinavia.

my favourite fact:

St. Lucy tore her eyes out to avoid marrying a pagan 🙄. so we serve buns that are ... referencing and mimicing torn out eyes.

bon appétit

Looking for code projects to work on for free and build my resume/networks.

I’m comfortable working with js, react, node.

Currently teaching myself mysql and typescript.

If you know of anything or want to recc any open source projects, I’d be grateful 🙏

Just published my weekly roundup of Five Cool Things.

If you like reading about technology, music, and culture, you'll dig Things That Should Exist.

This week: Bluesky, a smoggy NYC sky, and the "psychedelic age of AI"

I made this with my partner in one take, fully improvised.

It's called, "What this horse told me in heaven will melt your heart"

If you like: Stone Temple Pilots, Ween, silly songs about meeting a horse in heaven

When I first read this I though they were describing the political spectrum
Far left, smartest. Far right, pretty smart and intuitive but is old and small so she does what she wants.

Middle one is an absolute moron. The dumbest dog you’ve ever met. But sweet. But so, so, SO dumb.
