Friendly reminder that airlines websites suck. Like dorks do you want my money or not? I hope they all get very mild and unserious stomach aches for building the shaming experience.

Next year I think I might take the Starlight rail at least one way. Trains are cool choo choo

I got a bottle like this too but the medicine doesn't even fill up 1/2 of it when they filled the script. 🤣 I've taken maybe 10 of these since it was filled

In good conscience I can NOT NOT tell you to watch Batman Ninja vs Yakuza League. 9.8/10 stupid fun cringe movie with over-the-top action, dumb anime and comic tropes and camp, and knows what it wants to do. Written by Nakashima (kill la kill, Gurren Lagann), all you need to know.

Today I learned about the synthetic users drama and holy shit I'm dying laughing. Like imagine getting Jared Spool calling you out on your bullshit (tbh I know nothing about his normal vocab just that he usually sounds calm on his podcast). #jaredspoolmorelikejaredcool #howschattanoogathistimeofyear

damn this shit is so ancient that the Egyptians were involved. But seriously thanks for the history lesson!

I don't think making a portfolio presentation should take me 7 hours per project (itll be 9 by the time I'm done) but I'm actually really happy with how this ones turned out. I have lots (read: too much fun) jokes. I'm still borrowing a friend's template so need to change that later too.

Im ashamed i had to click this 3 times to realize its not a link @spavel.bsky.social . Pavlov would be proud how well you conditioned me.

idk honestly, let me know which one you prefer

I've got better than that: making completely over-the-top AI slop images (or better yet doing it in paint). I still cant decide which is the better path. One burns VC money (Im not paying for AI tools lmao) but the other shows my "skill" as an artist (pronounced R/tea -st).

Its my fault that I'm getting all these rejections. 14 days without updating my portfolio site. I really thought after hearing that a CEO of a startup liked me that I would get a role, and that didn't pan out.

Tonight's first portfolio change is changing my headings from Recursive to be Figtree.

RIP my old intro section, changed it to be more impactful given the feedback of "nobodys going to click for their two sentences" which I think is fair and honest. Now its updated to be more "selling" myself right at the start.

Lmao what the fuck is this field in a job application that has 5 fields. Tell me you come from a privileged lifestyle without telling me that. Like this is a tech company, which is one of the most prevalent occupations with self-education.

Gemini really is trying gaslight everyone (it was the 15th)

If Figma kills Kentucky Bill I'm quitting #Figma (at least until I'm done in Framer). Would love to see your #figpal.

Now that I've Settled on 2/3 of the "fun" parts of my portfolio, time for me to start fighting the real battle. Writing. This picture is me and I hate it. Hemingway said I write at a 19th grade level, so I'm not even qualified to read what I write. (slight s2 severance spoilers after the page title)

Im using this meme in a portfolio presentation. Yes I'm taking it seriously. For the amount of time I still have left its DEFINITELY the best option. The absurdity of creating and polishing work for performance reasons is something I look at with disdain and will mock it (but will eventually comply)
March 20, 2025 at 5:43 PM
Finally I can use this meme again after getting a framer component to work correctly after 90 minutes. Wtf is CSS anyway

@karenmcgrane.bsky.social how do you survive looking at this sub every day? This person claimed big tech employees are being discriminated against and I’m dying laughing 🤣
March 17, 2025 at 11:03 AM
Ohno all I did was sleep please just be fifty messages from the same person 🤞 maybe it’s another fiverr scammer

GMTK hitting with the best and easy to use frameworks.

Decided I should at least read the article thats getting NN in trouble instead of just blindly hating him and HOO BOY. Ignoring the obvious accessibility stuff he says (others have written plenty about it) NN thinks we'll all just give up websites and only use chatgpt/perplexity/etc. Like what bro??
