Giving the HealthFit app a try as a less social/competitive Strava replacement and so far I’m really liking it 👍 Pairs better with Apple health/fitness too

Why are more and more shoe brands leaning into the hoka bulkiness 😖

They somehow make me feel more unstable

Clearly trying to copy 😭 WHY asics you were perfect!

What is the point of sneaker models if each year they change so drastically??

Back to researching.

🚫 ASICS Gel Kayano 30 (were perfect until this recent model)

🚫 Hoka Bondi 8 (too bulky, sense of instability)

🚫 Brooks Glycerin 20 (toe box holes at about 90 miles)

🚫 Nike (sizing issue)

Something that helps underpronating.

@greg I can't find them in my size anywhere! I might go back to Brooks and try ghosts. They have an incredible return policy.

It seems wild have often I have to replace all these sneakers though

Trying to figure out what to hang behind my desk. I’m usually standing so it will mostly be covered up. Thinking nothing or dark macrame

OK fine I'm going to try micro.blog!

Now, to use a domain I already own or get a new one 😰

Listed a couch for free on Nextdoor. The real cost is paid by me responding to endless iS tHiS sTiLL aVaiLaBLe emails that are a deliberate design feature.

There’s no efficient path forward here. And if it wasn’t available why would I keep the post up? For more of these fun interactions?🙃

I'm considering putting a talk proposal together around communities. I haven't seen a lot of these out there and truly believe they are the future in terms of an organic alternative to traditional marketing efforts, general networking that is actually tolerable and sincere, and replacing that water cooler vibe so many of us don't have access to anymore. They are essential professionally and personally, yet there are not a lot of resources around getting started and enduring.

My very rough outline so far involves mapping out intentions, leaving nothing to "just happen" (it won't), setting the tone, successful welcome/onboarding, writing codes of conduct, designing for communities, getting help, and how to be a good member. I realize I have a long way to go, but I'm curious what I'm missing so far from your perspective.

joni,

@CodenameTim So this would be a big high-level section that would include things like getting the right tone in (consistent) content and messaging, crafting features, mapping out the overall experience of navigating the community as a member, visual design and fun easter eggs (mascots!). It can be fairly huge and I'd have to trim it down 😅

I think I’m going to attempt cutting my own hair today since salons are a sensory overload minefield.

Anyone cut their long hair before? Just want a straight, blunt trim; the more boring the better.

TL;DR Cutting own hair 👍 or 👎

Anyone consistently wake up even earlier on weekends? So messed up

I'm embarrassed to admit that after nearly 40 years of having mostly A Lot Of Hair, I only recently figured out the right brush situation.

Natural wood, boar hair. No more tangles and breakage! No more frizz! So soft!

@webology it's worth trying first! Game changer. I find not being able to do ponytails/buns to be really frustrating–it's just so easy to skip all styling.

The internet told me this is the best brush in the world but I could honestly never bring myself to drop that kind of cash on a brush 😵

@greg Mike has more brushes than I do and it’s nowhere near as long as yours!

Ben officially lives in the basement. Ben’s old room is Mike’s new office. Mike’s old office is my new office. My old office goes back to being a regular living room and dining room! 🙏

Another! I don’t actually have room for these but LOOK

Desk arrived! Really impressed with the quality already. Ungraded to bamboo and it digitally tells you the height as you adjust it 💫 It’s from FlexiSpot.

Don’t freak out I haven’t done cord management yet 🙈
