Lately, I started sharing my prototypes on Twitter(x, whatever) and have enjoyed the process. The positive feedback I received from viewers…

Three men under a tree, facing away from the camera, toward a Japanese temple. You can see the sunset sky in the back. 

The man on the left has black hair and is wearing a black suit. The one in the middle has thin gray hair, wearing a beige suit and carrying a black satchel. The man on the right also has black hair, and is wearing what seems to be a light gray robe. They are all facing away from the camera.

email from app store connect: "congratulations! your submission was accepted for distribution."

The platform interface has gradually made it harder to find the music I want to listen to. With the latest app updates, I’d had enough.

There's something about this WIP footer that's not sitting well with me but I haven't figured it out. Please tell me everything you hate about it ❤️

(the haiku will be dynamic, contrast/a11y is on my radar already)

Trying to provide content suggestions for review moments before it has to ship since it wasn’t included in the planning stages

Going to ask an actual design question for once: does anyone have any advice for concept testing (as opposed to usability testing)?

My content design work has been coming full circle between managing and editing an online departmental magazine for a school to making release notes in Easels. My days of mspainting and kidpix has prepared me for this moment.

Just remembered season 2 of Pachinko has premiered. Anyone else watching?

August goal: Wrap up and go live with the new styling and layout of my site that I've been procrastinating for months on. Also wanna add in some new projects too...

Someone keep my accountable 👁️👄👁️

We keep pointing at each other and uttering AI when you’re either a candidate or a hiring manager but tell me when the last time you worked for a company where human resources adopted technology rapidly? Using AI is literally flooding and overwhelming hiring processes…

When embedded as a writer, I’m often maybe presenting a bit more self deprecating because it helps people understand I’m not going to judge their conversational grammar or language. All that shit evolves. What once was acceptable maybe tomorrow isn’t and vice versa.

Introducing Halal Diner's Club.

Find the best halal restaurants near you. We are launching in Texas. This project has been in my backlog since Covid. I'm designing. My friend is developing.

This is gonna be badass.

is it normal to feel like everything you make for work is under duress? Like I don't normally share a lot of my pro work cause I usually have to do production in <1week and I feel like I make sacrifices to hit deadlines

I’ve collected a few notes about creating demos of my prototypes. Recently, I’ve received a lot of questions about my filming process, so I’ve decided to share these notes with you ✨

I choose to be happy 😎
That's the affirmation for today!

Nothing happened at BC folks, I just want benefits is all. Love the work and love the people but I’m a contractor and I want to treat my body and mind to healthcare.

waiting for the client to get back to you with feedback so you can clock tf in

Pretty proud of this photo I took in Japan.
Also, I'm trying to learn how to edit pictures. Any tips?

Working on my 10th Figma plugin. There are so many wave generated plugins, but I haven't found one that adds waves to selected shapes or vector. So, over the weekend, I coded the basic logic to do so… Coming soon

Did anyone else watch Shinchan growing up? Drew a little illustration of his favourite snack 🥰

I would love benefits. Is this manifesting?

My superpower is being able to identify AI generated content at first sight.

My foray into bifocals is happening. Now to wait a month for my prescription because of amblyopia. I am excited to see in HD and hopefully not have as many migraines.

No better-feeling message to type out on Slack than... 

"I created this [insert chaos-reducing agent] to centralize all the..."

There is so much pressure to be everything to everyone that you can get lost and forget where you last left yourself. I hope I’ve left enough breadcrumbs to return.

I am putting a small conference together and am wondering if anyone has any suggestions for brands/designers that would be willing to donate products for prizes. We will be doing fun games between speakers and would love to up the anti with small prizes.

i didn’t forget about posts, just been absolutely in love with madrid ❤️

After taking a much needed 2 week break from job searching, I need to approach my job search differently. What approaches has helped to improve your job search?

i think we all need to go on more long early morning walks by the water with our friends

When was the last time you made things that made you super happy?

The older I get the more I want my accessories to resemble other things. Fish purse. I want a fish purse.

Life update: I officially need bifocals. Kind of would love a monocle because I have amblyopia (you wouldb’t be able to tell, no one knew until I was diagnosed later in life). I would love to be a pirate when not monocled up. UM THE FASHION. I would attach it to a wallet chain.

I’m running a 3-hour icon workshop in New York in October, and I’m nervous! I’ve done much shorter ones in the past — any tips for keeping people engaged for that long?

WELCOME TO OFFICIAL PORTFOLIO DAY, STOP WORKING GO WASTE HOURS IN YOUR PORTFOLIO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"In the past decade a 'user-centered' approach to design has been replaced by a 'corporation-centered' approach. Rather than optimizing for the user’s experience, it optimizes for the extraction of profit."

Ok Posts people, it's Linkedin official - I started a contract PD role at Mozilla today 🎉

I'm relieved to actually be working after being unemployed for more than 1.5 years now.. I know eventually I may be applying again but for now, I just want to focus on good design work 😎

The best purchase I’ve made recently for myself are travel tapatio keychains. First of all, cute. Second of all, caliente.

This is my kind of gamification. Though the last time I took a ride was 2022.

Had an extremely surreal moment a few weeks ago when Ron McElhenney and the Wrexham AFC Women’s team were gifted scarves that I designed! Been working on allowing myself to feel proud about my design accomplishments, and this was a pretty big one!

started putting this down for the last hour of the work week on my cal

currently redesigning my portfolio ✨ trying not to be a perfectionist 😅

job market is so bad i feel happy when i get a rejection email from an actual human being

A side thing — to help a friend with a website for his biz  
Excited to share this static (for now) layout right from Figma

P.S. Did a huge-footer thing too :D

Making sure everything was set and ready for today's Play livestream, where we recreated the gradient generator prototype!  Btw, try it out on your iPhone: https://appclip.apple.com/id?p=com.createwithplay.playgen2.Clip&pid=3d36ff8da04000TLiWk&e=0

Honestly yes I would love this to keep going

People say this place is small but I have to revisit people’s profiles because I can’t remember context (or if I need it), are you like this too? If there is data and I’m creeping on your profile, I’m sorry I’m just trying to remember if I’ve come across your posts before!
