In all seriousness, I want Star Trek: Mission Impossible, similar to the 60s TV series. Each week the crew has to undercover their way through a different planet, outsmarting spies and toppling governments. Bonus: All of the actors would get to do bumpy head makeup on a regular basis.

“Intuitive UX” doesn’t mean *you* get it.

It means Karen from finance can export a report without panic sweating.

Portrait of Jane Goodall making with her hand in the "This Close" sign with her index and thumb close to each other. She is smiling, wearing a colorful scarf and a blue shirt with an End Polio Now pin..

We join the world in remembering renowned conservationist Jane Goodall. Along with her passion for chimpanzees & the environment, Jane was also a supporter of polio eradication. In 2010, Jane joined Rotary's "This Close" #EndPolio campaign. Our thoughts are with all who knew her.

I loved the first 3/4ths or even 4/5ths of this, but it differed from too big of a budget. The end was trying too hard to be a super hero movie. Still, Jason Isaacs is always amazing.

While I do love a grand bookstore, there’s something to be said for cozy, hole-in-the-wall bookstores, too. Especially ones that have a distinct niche, like horror or history.

Agreed. It always felt like a consultant-employment program to me — and maybe a budget-boondoggle opportunity — rather than something that added any real value.

I never really understood the obsession with Design Thinking. The implication that strategic design is something that can be taught to accountants during a 4-hour workshop (or even a 2-day workshop) is ridiculous. Design, at its core, should be about problem solving, and that takes expertise.

It's funny how "out of the box" and "outside the box" can mean such very different things. #ApplicationDevelopment

As a #ux designer, I find myself struggling with pure lift-and-shift projects. I always want to make improvements, and the developers push back that they've built exactly what's already there. 😆

just saw a group of masked men stuffing masked ICE agents into an unmarked car, who were saying "we're ICE we're ICE!" but the abductors shouted to the crowd "no we're ICE!" no one knew who was ICE, so no one in the crowd said anything.

Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door.
NO ABRAS TU PUERTA.
ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizándola debajo de la puerta.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

My dude, if you believe the IRS wanted to hire 87,000 agents to audit American taxpayers you are — and I cannot stress this enough — extremely gullible.

Please Google the law you are referencing. It does not do the thing you are claiming. Billionaires are lying to you so you will support their greed.

Table read tonight for Applause Community Theatre’s upcoming production of “Done to Death” by Fred Carmichael. Anyone know where I can find long form audio of a transatlantic accent to study?
