Ah - loved this too! Thank you for this thread @matuzo.at, have loaded up with albums I’d long forgotten.
Such nostalgia! For me this has ‘home from Turnmills, watching the sun rise’ vibes - alongside K&D Sessions and Cold Water Music. Good times.
Thank you for taking us on that beautiful spice journey Simon.
That's Ben's Spice Girl name.
Respect - I'm here for the vintage spice flex 💪
I think some of our jars of spices predate our house which we’ve lived in for 20 years.
I find many terms around accessibility and inclusion significantly reduce the readability score 🤦🏻♀️
Whoever named dyscalculia was not very thoughtful!
The steps to program a robot to do tasks was also a winner with my code club. Get two of them on stage and one is the programmer, one is the robot. 8 year old hilarity if you are programming a robot to use the toilet!
Congrats Donnie. That must be a lovely box to open 🧡

Hearing your children belt out Jane's Addiction or Fugazi from the back seat of the car is parenting done well.
I say this at least once a day, typically at design mockups where the 12px type fits perfectly in the container.
Useful addition to the collection, thank you Lloydi 🧡
Did you not receive your Kool-Aid delivery from AI hype-wagon today Ben?
Look forward to your post Shaun. We found adding an accessibility nutrition label a useful auditing exercise. We need more posts documenting the process to encourage other apps to add this.
I use your site all the time and appreciate it 🙏🏼
Love this "it has to be nice at first"
It’s that time again - I’m on the hunt for new clients from the beginning of April. I’m open to full or part-time contracts outside IR35.
I can help you with:
- design system consultancy, coaching, management or documentation
- content design
- UX writing
- technical writing

@oliverturner.cloud amused how we’ve been chatting for about 15 years but didn’t recognise each other until we exchanged profile pictures 🙃

Chatted to @matuzo.at last night and got a receipt! #SotB26
Loved your talk esp this line - all very relatable.

Glorious!
We'll miss you Lex, but sensible to prioritise your health 🧡
