That's my fave also, the tears only make it better
Nepalese food is that girl. It helps that our local place is run by a completely adorable family who are so kind and only bully me a little bit for my bad spice tolerance
I -especially- appreciate these from a non-traditional career path. Thank you for sharing!
Really pretty site! Boosting for visibility 💛
Hey friends! I currently have availability for UI/UX design/development work, but I'm also looking to be part of a team again. I've been passionate about the web platform for over 20 years, and would love to find folks that care about process and craft as much as I do. 💜

Everyone in the household is sneezing, including two humans and three cats. The cat sneezes sound adorable, human sneezes not so much
The Slack thing and RAM prices are definitely a wakeup call. I'm hearing Synology is doing some anti-consumer things lately, what are the cool kids using
Happy birthday mate! Hope it's a good one
I must say that slack deleting the workspaces of everyone in hk/taiwan/macao/mainland on April fool's Day feels like a ginormous fucking joke

incredible, so-called AI companies stormed the International Math Olympiad at the last second and simply announced they’d “won” “gold medal performance” with mealy mouthed statements when they’d done nothing of the sort. It was a lie for publicity.
We could use your help. If you’ve ever wanted to work with us, now would be an excellent time!
Please spread the word. Thank you!

Telling myself that the reason all my #pokopia pokemon live in outdoor habitats is anti-gentrification praxis ans not because I'm uncreative
I’m winding down with two clients I’ve been working with since January, which means I’ve got some availability for new work opening up soon.
If you need a designer who thinks deeply about systems, teams, and users, AND who will ooh+ahh over an especially pretty serif, I’d love to chat with you!
I made matcha cookies this weekend! They are so delicious, even the threat of heart palpitations keeping me up all night will not prevent me from eating multiple in a day whoops 🙃
So glad I decided not to hit publish on my draft about friction because everyone else is completely knocking it out of the park.
✍️ New post: The Shape of Friction
I wrote a short blog post reply to @davatron5000.bsky.social’s recent post (👏) about generative AI, friction, and people.

A brownish black maine coon cat with a regal face looks directly at the camera while sitting on the bed. The tip of his right ear is folded over, making him look like a handsome rogue.
Hector is determined to be the most expensive cat ever by acquiring an aural hematoma, which may give him a permanent ear flop bc I don't want to put him through surgery for cosmetic reasons. Tell him how devilishly handsome he looks with it!!
New website thing: I will send you a postcard from our travels! We all spend lots of time online, so it‘ll be fun to have something physical for a change. Plus, you get to put it on your fridge :) Leave a note if you want!

An indescribably pissed off looking ragdoll cat sit splayed on the floor. He's so done.
Headed into the shelter for my shift and the manager told me that two of the three identical ragdoll kittens have been adopted, the one who hasn't been adopted hasn't been neutered yet so I can just check for the presence of balls
This is his face right after. Sorry Huey!!

i felt this in my soul
This post is inspired by my accountants, whose portal gave me warning that I hadn't paid my bill and they were going to terminate my account immediately. I had to pretend I was a new client to get on a call with their salespeople and they just went like 'lol we'll tell the devs sorry about that tho'
Something has definitely changed in the past few years where my anxiety-riddled millenial brain went from yay saas, now I don't have to speak to a human to deal with this thing, to fuck saas, give me a person I can call instead of being stuck in broken software for hours
OMFG, this has been like my favorite Pokemon since childhood I need to shell out 70 bucks right now 😂😂
(also I did count the number of legs later and realized it's a spider haha)
A text message exchange. A friend writes 'look at this weird bug' with a photo of an spider?? that is all green with two sets of enormously long front legs. I reply 'this is the first time anyone has told me look at this weird bug and it was an actual insect.'
March 12, 2026 is a momentous day
