10/10 ❤️ This was a HARD but necessary read, especially as a Black Queer person. It filled the gaps of understanding I’ve had about my own experiences and Black/Queer sexuality as a whole. — I finished this book feeling both educated and extremely proud. HAPPY JUNETEENTH ❤️

8.5/10 I lost count at the amount of times my jaw was on the floor from some of the intimate details he shared about his life. Organized religion is incredibly violent/harmful to queer people. #Booksky

The Best Designers Are Not Talking About Design Anymore
Why do the designers we look up to seem to talk less about design — and more about everything else?

If I can glean one thing from what seems to be never-ending layoffs in the tech space, Its the hope that folx really analyze and adjust how much of their identity they allow to be wrapped up into their professional duties.

There are always going to be companies wanting to exploit AI as a way to cut overhead, I just hate the fear-mongering as it relates to AI "killing" design jobs. #UXSky #ProductDesign #UX uxdesign.cc/ai-is-coming...

AI is coming for our design jobs, but it can’t touch taste

Accessibility Awareness @a11yawareness.bsky.social · 29/03/2025
Consistent layout makes websites easier to navigate and understand as it helps users learn what elements to expect and in what order. This is especially helpful to low vision users or blind users using a screen reader. It also helps those with cognitive and learning disabilities.
