Sadly, it’s even worse when the users are internal. Then everyone thinks they’re an SME. Users aren’t “paying,” so the misconception is that there is no cost of a bad UX. A persona becomes a job title completely divorced from real people.

Yet at the same time, they are rolling back regulations that keep our air and water clean and natural. Putting chemicals on your skin is bad but breathing and drinking them is just fine. 😡😢

If you put in your newscast that President Trump says he will “probably“not run again, and then you don’t follow it by saying he is constitutionally barred from doing so, you are failing.
Glad you are okay and have such a good hubby. Sucks that brands just don’t get it.
Ugh. Sell it for more?
So far, if I get flaxseed on my skin, I get bad hives but no anaphylactic reaction (like when I eat it). And it’s immediate. When I’ve accidentally eaten it, my lips and tongue flare up in the first bite. Benadryl staved off EpiPen. For now.
I’m allergic to flaxseed. The number of times I’ve been told “Flaxseed is proven to be very healthy and good for you. You can’t be allergic to it.” And it’s an ingredient often left off the list - like in beer and cosmetics. Ask me how I know.
Listened yesterday morning & thought it was going to be a fun hate watch. Instead, we got sucked in, binging it all. No spoilers but we (non-horse people) became invested in the stories after certain horses weren’t running, cheering out loud during races. Can’t wait to hear the rest of the episodes.
Shostakovich makes you feel the pain and suffering and fear of oppression while showing beauty and peace and joy can still exist and bring hope.
Always moving. Hitting a little different right now.
I used to feel that way every time. Then I sat through a judge signing bench warrants for no shows and anyone arriving more than 65 mins late.
Beautiful free concert tomorrow.
Were they hovering their mouse over Leave to close it down as quickly as possible?
How do you know they think nothing is wrong when you see them doing all the things required for life? Are acts of resistance not counted if not posted on social media? Does anxiety have to be observed to be real? Responding differently than you to what’s wrong is still a response.
😢😡
I don’t disagree with your advice but clarifying that the US isn’t fixated with Greenland. Only the head Cheeto and some of his spineless yes-men are.
Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die. 🔁 🙂 #thingsthatmakemesmile
The single worst thing the Internet invented was the idea that anything digital should be free.
Everyone who does work deserves to be paid for their labor. No exceptions. You are not "sticking it" to anyone if you pirate content. You are greedy and wrong.
I would genuinely like an always-listening AI to let me say things like "I'm putting my sweatpants in the closet, the ones that Dave gave me, the maroon ones" and then three weeks later I can say "Where did I put those maroon sweatpants?" and it tells me.
Me too. I saw all the posts hours later and don’t remember feeling anything
OH: “I occasionally raise the bar just to be able to drop it again” 🤣🤣🤣
