I did a thing!

I hate AI art as much as the next person, but at least it’s not spitting out Corporate Memphis.

Thank you! I wanted them to be flowy.

Thank you! I can’t look at it now but I’m looking forward to digging into it.

I would love to know as well!

My updated personal site is almost done. Just one more little tweak…

Pet peeve: when people post about job openings on LinkedIn (I don’t mean job listings, but personal posts about jobs) and don’t mention the location.

Here I am fully visualizing myself in the perfect role only to discover it’s on-site in Berlin.

I highly recommend that everyone follow artists. If you do, your feed is filled with art every day. Real, original art. It's bonkers that you can even have this. Amazing. Undeniably cool.

And then support those artists, when you can, because that helps the delight continue.

CSS code demonstrates nesting selectors. It shows styles for parent and child rules, illustrating parsing without preprocessors.

🧩 Write cleaner CSS with nesting

You can now nest selectors directly in CSS.
It improves readability, keeps styles modular, and reduces repetition.

No preprocessor needed.

Subgrid is awesome! I enjoyed using it in a project recently.

Since leaving my startup, I've been experimenting with some of my own projects. However, in typical-me fashion, I found myself surrounded with a bunch of projects about 10% finished and a whole bunch of ideas that are, well, still raw. Starting this week I'm working towards finishing a thing or two!

What is Easter food? Peeps and jelly beans?

That said, my tech career highly influences my writing, so it's not like we can really separate them anyway.

Hi, if you've found me via my very short-lived tech account, welcome. I'm a writer, pixel artist, and software engineer who recently left the startup she cofounded in the weirdest economy since 2008. Apologies if you're here for writing content, I haven't been doing as much of that lately.

Pixel art of a book and some chunky, colorful highlighters.

Is the highlighter the brightest office supply?

It’s very exciting!

WTF is “conservative feminism”?

Same, but we just bought Rivendell!

Ugh, I wish you could just get the minifigs and not the whole enterprise.

I’m 41. Whenever I’m about to post something online, I think, “my parents are going to read this and tell me why I shouldn’t have posted it.”

I’m looking for the most useless examples of software products that have added “AI” features by slapping on a chatbox.

Any other speculative fiction writers feel like they’re racing against reality? Can we chill for a moment because I can only type so fast.

Clarinet "you are a cat person" Okay, yes.

That's fair. Personally, as an ADHD person, I wish fidget toys had been normalized more when I was a kid. I always wanted to be fidgeting with something. People thought it meant I wasn't paying attention, when really I payed attention better. They're not a one-size-fits-all fix for everyone though!
