Designer obsessed with eggs and garden gnomes.
Why are dogs with respiratory issues so cute?

I love adding Easter eggs in my hand off files. Why?

1. It brings me joy, and will hopefully do the same for the engineer.

2. It lets me know that the documentation that I spent extra time working on actually got read. 😂

Design system work is going to be even more important as non-designers integrate Figma (and other) MCPs for vibe coding and ideation.

Whenever devs talk about “pushing” I just think of a dude lying on a hospital bed in a medical gown with a laptop on his belly pushing a watermelon out of himself.

Chipotle: Enjoy a $0 delivery fee!*

Also Chipotle: *Higher menu prices are charged for delivery; additional service fees applied at checkout as well.

So... not really a $0 delivery fee.

This is how you lose trust with your customers.

Just caught myself typing "fuck-stack designer" on my resume. It's FULL-STACK, Wendy. Time for bed.

Today I sent my first Japanese text message. Like… using Hiragana on a Japanese keyboard. 🥰

Does anyone have a hotel recommendation in Orange County that's pet-friendly? And by pet-friendly, I mean "a hotel that don't charge you a $150 non-refundable pet fee + $100 daily pet fee"? My mom's dog is 15 years old and good as gold; better behaved than most children, TBH.

I know I’m late to the Duolingo party, but holy moly am I having fun learning Japanese! I had no idea learning a new language could be so much fun.

TFW you’re in the middle of your leg day workout and your phone reminds you that it’s time to get ready for bed.

While we’re banning books…

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.

Be. Like. Finland.

More to say on burnout and I'm probably going to boost it a few times because folks need to hear it:

Burnout is a form of brain damage. It happens when stress conditions persist until they damage our brains.

It's an injury that needs to heal, not a weakness that needs to be pushed through.
Man burnout can mess you up for a very long time.

And it can sneak up on you: things can seem stressful but mostly manageable until suddenly they're not manageable.

Self care and vacation are great, but they're guardrails: they don't help when you've already fallen in.

There are few things that infuriate me more than a website popup when I'm in the middle of doing something.
