Libraries are so cool. Whenever I'm away from home and need a place to hang out between things, I find a library. There's a bathroom, a water fountain, chairs, and I can read, meditate, use the computers, or just be, and no one tries me make me buy anything.

114: The most common design tool within your organization is Excel, followed by Powerpoint, because that is where decisions are made and distributed. Your super cool research report in Confluence, or neat prototype in Figma, is not nearly as accessible to PMs used to emailing files back and forth.
