Spend a minute or so watching the pureness of a young robin splashing in a bee watering station - repurposed!
Slo-mo.
It’ll make you smile.
Nature tends to do that.
Make you smile.
This is what’s important.
What we’re losing.
How very sad.

It always amazes me how much design & usability advice can be boiled down to:
- Use fewer (and simpler) words.
- Make them bigger.
- Give them white space.
Oh, and stop giving things “clever” names that obscure their purpose.

A portal opens and an army marches through. We panic.
Then a huge armored figure calls the troops to a halt and summons a subordinate. They converse, the large figure slaps the little one, the troops go back through the portal, and the portal shuts.
We never get an explanation.
I started a new job recently. They have an internal Confluence/wiki, so to help my new colleagues understand me better I created my own Space and added a “Personal User Manual”. I’ve had great responses from it and it has started a bit of a trend! Can recommend.

See the spin? The truth is it’s the BIG vehicles that are deadly, to everyone around them, in vehicles and outside vehicles, but they claim it’s the SMALL cars that are “deadly” because they don’t provide enough armor against the BIG, DEADLY VEHICLES.

Le tourisme du futur…
est déjà là.
Je pense aux rues devant les écoles où les parents attendent leurs enfants, enfermés dans leur voitures avec le moteur qui tourne pour refroidir leur bulle climatisée.

This is not an email I ever expected to receive or send.
ALT Image of email reads "The AI design of your email is clever, but significantly lacks warmth. Would it be possible to be contacted by a human being moving forward instead of AI? Many Thanks"
ALT Image of response reads "It's not AI. I'm just autistic. See you next Friday. Sent from Proton Mail mobile.
