    hey friends! it’s been a while since i posted about myself here! i can’t believe i escaped the design hamster wheel… since starting my new job at a small company owned by founders and employees, i learned that work doesn’t have to give you anxiety or destroy the world 💗

    if we were americans the whole world would be talking about what's happening, but we aren't so please share and donate. this is complete devastation, entire towns are gone. when they talk about the effects of climate change, this is what they mean. it's happening NOW.

    I’m not sure what’s more embarrassing: that you think women have to be sexy in movies, that you believe males are the only core audience of superhero movies (the split is almost 50/50), or that you don’t think any of these incredibly sexy actresses are sexy.

    you don’t need to go that far most americans would not survive living in the global south. there’s a resilience and community involved in thriving here that americans in general don’t possess

    so many of our jobs will be wiped out with this, and the quality of digital products will become so much worse this is bringing digital design to mass market, like they did with physical design. now we sit in shitty chairs and only rich people can afford a well-designed product
    Don’t name your layers. Let Figma AI do that AND → Make your first draft with Make Design → Find the exact visual you’re looking for (or something similar) with Visual/Asset Search → Turn your designs into a working prototype with Make Prototype #Config2024

    I have no idea how to make friends. Not friends you see once a month, but friends that help you move; that come to your house just because they were in the neighbourhood. I gave that up when I moved countries, but it still hurts
