Last week I didnโt get the job Iโd been interviewing for, but I did become an allotment holder, so thatโs something.
Still looking for interesting front-end work making good stuff for nice people. If anyone wants to pay me so I can hand it straight to the bank and HMRC, thatโd be lovely.
Ah thank you! I love Storyblok, but I doubt Iโd be experienced enough with Vue to apply ๐
Iโm often asked for accessibility resources for beginners.
@laurakalbag.bsky.social's book has been my go to. Itโs clear, practical, and works for designers, developers, and anyone involved in building products. The best part: itโs now free and available online.
Bookmark it. Read it. Share it!

the new (beta) @penpot.app renderer is such a huge improvement. snappier in a 100-tab browser window from hell than the Figma desktop app with a single file open. i know i keep saying this but if you design for the web and you haven't tried penpot you owe it to yourself to give it a whirl.
I really wasn't expecting much when I posted this morning saying I was looking for work. I hadn't even got out of bed yet. But so many lovely humans have reposted or liked it. Thanks all! โค๏ธ
Thank you, Andy!
Iโm not a big user of BlueSky (yet), but if anyone sees this Iโm looking for work.
Iโm a front-end developer, with a focus on low-carbon, design-led, accessible, websites โ often using Astro and headless CMSs like Storyblok.
Iโm open to freelance or possibly the right perm role ๐ค
I've just created a APCA + WCAG 2 Contrast Checker tool to help people choose the best color combinations that suit both the WCAG 2.x requirements and also support the APCA which has some real advantages in some contexts.

Does anyone have any good tips for dealing with burnout? Donโt think Iโve had it this bad in ~20 years.
Have you tried it with unprefixed names?
In place of a new comic, have an old one instead. This was my first comic to joke about the preposterous idea of a robot taking someone's job. 2018. How innocent we were...
Mike Mignola is still God.
Alright, we're actually doing this open working thing.
We're going to work on projects, for real clients who are set up to make people's lives tangibly better.
We can only do that if it works financially though because we've got mortgages etc.
Your support will make this happen.
At Green Web Foundation, we're kicking off a project which we're calling Grid-aware Websites. Lowkey excited to getting this code out into the wild. ๐ค

Great work ๐
Maybe next year Iโll be able to take some time off in December before Christmas ๐
Yeah pretty much!
You can tell itโs nearly December when clients start saying โWe need this by the end of the yearโ.
Ah yes, the festive tradition of last-minute panic. Who needs a relaxing build up to Christmas anyway?

I hoped Iโd be wrong but I think a big % of Americans would simply never vote for a woman.
To them, even a senile fascist running the country is easier to stomach than a female president.
Most wonโt even admit this to themselves. It just so happens that no female candidate is ever good enough.
Oh America. Not again.
