Anyone have any free #UX books they like, or books that I can buy one copy and legally share with a group of people? I want to have a book club with my team at work but I don’t want to make everyone buy something

I somehow got onto Joe Biden’s very busy mailing list they require me to provide my name and zip code to unsubscribe, ughhhh (Obviously my name is now Nunya Business and I live in 11111, they’re getting quality info in this form)

MS teams suggests chat responses sometimes, and it really likes “No problem! 😀” and there’s something about the combination of both the exclamation point and the smiley and maybe also the capitalization that reads as passive aggressive to me

When I was a kid I had a picture book where a guy was making dinner and saw an ant crawling around, and then over the course of the book gradually destroyed his house trying to get rid of it, anyway this is our life now

Corporate IT sent out messages a couple of days ago to a bunch of people on my team that their macOS version was out of date and they needed to update, and now like half my team can’t get online anymore, and this is why people don’t update their software.

Current project, this is my first attempt at cables and my first attempt at a sweater, so it’s an adventure all around. I finished the first full repetition of the pattern and I think it’s going well so far! There’s a couple of mistakes in there but they’re minor enough to live with. I’m paranoid that I’m going to finish the sweater and it won’t fit, though 😅

The main thing I use photoshop for anymore is whiteboarding during meetings, which on the one hand is kind of overkill but on the other hand it lets me get these whiteboard brushes exactly how I want them

This is an appreciation post for niche government websites like time.gov and ocean.weather.gov (especially the minimal mobile view of the latter, which I imagine is essential at sea)

High fives to government web workers just trying to get out good information, I appreciate you
