During the day I'm a Design Systems lead. Establishing and maintaining pattern libraries for different teams that call back to our core component set is what you'll find me doing most of the time. Also lean into visual design where I help establish rhythm in the work, and of course the details.

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.
My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.
I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

It always fascinated me the thinking that "a design system makes everything look the same".
Well yes, a brand's, in this example, web experience should be consistent and feel familiar no matter where you are in that experience.

Love this piece written by @joanwestenberg.com
I'm guilty of it too, some days it feels easier to scroll and be upset, like it's hopeless. But that's what they want. Donate your time, money, resources. Anything. Now is the time we step up and protect each other.

Okay early thoughts from someone who no-lifed the early access weekend for Path of Exile 2.
Difficulty feels amazing, love the boss fights and having to master mechanics and dodge.
Using uncut gems to allow you to choose what skills to level up or try is a great system. Huge surplus by cruel.

Made it to the endgame maps with a witch hunter. Also have a blood mage sitting at lvl 43 because of course I have an alt already. Game feels great, could use some more clarity on a few game decisions but I can see myself playing this for a long time. #pathofexile2 #poe2

If we get anywhere near the expected 1 million early access players then I'm not mad at all with my place in the PoE2 queue

It feels like I'm doing some of the best work of my career. I am insanely fortunate to have found myself in a systems role, because it is exactly how my brain operates. Can't wait to share some of what has been going on behind the scenes

It's a blocklist for the kinds of engagement bait accounts that repost stolen content, often with misleading captions.
