Any good design podcasts these days that are not just tech bros talking about “leveling up”? But more about the craft?

Hosted by women, ideally.

I’m used to being in the boring era of tech where each upgrade doesn’t feel much different.

But wow the difference between my 2017 MacBook Pro and a brand new one??

It’s a delight.

Browsing Framer templates to see what the kids are up to these days.

1px lines everywhere. Horizontal. Vertical. Grids. Outlines.

It’s giving graph paper vibes.

The new Fuji X half is super cute.

Seems kinda gimmicky but when it comes to camera gear I’m pretty into restrictive gimmicks that make things more interesting

I was SO excited to learn about Figma Sites, as a designer whose coding skills are about 10 years out of date at this point.

Hopefully it ends up being pretty great in the end 🤞

Kinda just want figma to integrate it all together though instead of having different parts

Today’s tiny wins:
- designed 23 screens (yikes)
- new glasses day!
- first heater day of the season = snuggly toasty cats
- winter doona ON, soft fluffy bed vibes await

Now just gotta stay awake for an airport run later

Today’s tiny wins: big day of life and house admin, many to dos ticked off

Powered by checklists, quiet rage, and doing it anyway ✨

Today’s tiny win:

Side Quest Log: Font Goblin Recon

Body: low battery, still vibing.
Brain: tiny creative sparks.

Tiny wins:
🔤 Font combo experiments
✍️ Side Quest scheming

Powered by ✨ two fonts and an idea ✨

You don’t need motivation. You need ignition. Small fires lit daily will eventually burn down every fortress of fear you’ve built. Light the match. Light it again tomorrow.

Side Quest Log: Sunday Edition
Body: hurting.
Brain: foggy.
Soul: horizontal forever.

Tiny wins today:
🧶 Knitted more rows on my first sweater (it’s looking real!)
🛏️ Maximum lying down.
🏆 Remembering rest is productive.

Webrings! What a blast from the past, forgot all about them

But not hashtags?

Cat carriers on wheels seem like a good idea until I picture them jiggling about over the bumpy ground

Turns out landscape photography involves leaving the house

Thanks! The sides are pretty rough/loose and my floats would be no good for a garment, but fine for a hot water bottle

Looks like the colour dominance of the top white spot isn’t right, but not bad for my first time doing colour work!

Started on what I thought would be a simple hot water bottle cover to learn colourwork. Turns out it uses “Judy’s magic cast on” so it knits all in one, and magic loop, neither of which I’ve done before, so I’m learning new stuff before before I’ve even gotten to the colour work section, yikes

I need a new game to play, switch or playstation.

I love huge pretty open worlds with lots of side quests and not too much fighting (or an easy/story mode to help with that). The pretty part is important.

E.g. breath of the wild/TOTK, ghost of Tsushima, horizon zero dawn

Suggestions?

Two ginger kittens

A black white and grey kitten stretched out

Visited some foster friends today and met some cuties.

Non-ginger pictured is called Luigi. He opened my bag and rifled through it. A true cat of the people.

That seems like a really good hat, where’s it from? How’s it stand a bit of wind?

Lies

I’ve long been wishing I could Eternal Sunshine my brain and play it again for the first time

Last I checked (couple months ago) I couldn’t find any designers to follow, suddenly there’s heaps! Gonna follow a bunch of starter packs, say hi!

@lorepodcast.bsky.social hi! 👋

Really want a Fuji x100vi but don’t want to spend the money right now. The x-m5 is more affordable but unsure if the lack of viewfinder and other simplified features will annoy me. OR will they be easy and delightful? Could go either way

I’d pair it with a little pancake prime.. 😍

What do we think of the new Fujifilm X-M5? I love the look and tiny size for an everyday casual or travel camera.

Spacer.gif ftw

I may need to upgrade my iPhone 12 mini to a larger phone purely because I can’t read people’s tiny captions on Instagram stories 👵🏻💀
