tucked my kids in bed to go watch my comfort show (the one where the guy’s brain falls out)

That first Nazgûl who lost Frodo right outside the Shire fucking choked

another week of trying very hard every day to learn and to make visuals that drive the aesthetics of our franchise forward. or in the words of the new york times. ruining the workplace

💀

happy october to the one single diseased pumpkin my neighbor managed to grow on a scraggly vine down the middle of his front yard all summer. it’s her moment

you have to be a little bit sick to work in a franchise with a visual identity made up of perfectly aligned geometric primitives. fortunately Jedi UI/UX team has the juice

Also the Tylenol thing is unfalsifiable. By saying there is an association between something MOST pregnant people do, especially without an alternative, they can claim to have “solved” it. It’s no different than if they said autism was caused by wearing shoes. They get credit without burden of proof

women being blamed for autism is very 2025 and also very 1692

I was pondering this week how I’d like to spend less of my time online and today I spent an entire hour cleaning my child’s vomit out of a rug. this is n o t what I meant

oh my god

found my toddler gazing down into our huge old A/C intake vent in the hallway. I asked him “what do you see down there, buddy?” he looked up me and said “TWO EYES” and why would he say that. wHY would he SAY THAT

frankly posting is *a sign* im not doing well

omg, congratulations!!! you look beautiful!

Letting my children climb the Chili’s Too sign to prove to RFK they don’t have mitochondrial challenges

we’re having to do a 6:30pm bedtime or my new kindergartener enters a manic state 👍🏻

I mean this sincerely. then again I click over to figma and it wont let me select colors from my own libraries when setting a simple gradient. ok

after a decade+ of designing in fairly user-friendly software, it’s kind of fun to learn unreal motion graphics, a tool that is actively hostile to my very presence

you can measure how worried they are about midterms by how hard they have ossoff smoldering in our ads

I’m always saying this

my oldest started kindy on monday and I kind of feel like ive lived 10 lifetimes already this week/been hit by a bus. lemon it’s wednesday etc

embarrassed to have cried hard during SUPERMAN (2025) which is how you know the times we live in are super cool and normal

Ms. Rachel grew up on Mister Rogers. Now she’s carrying on his legacy. The YouTube star wants her audiences — adults and children alike — to see the humanity of all people.

Ms. Rachel forever

potty training got the whole gang real Demoralized

I feel like not enough of you heard me tell you that you must read The Tainted Cup so I’m saying it again. two weird detectives in a quasi-Roman fantasy setting with the most interesting magic system I’ve seen in a while uncover murder plot while beset by… fine I’ll call them kaiju

my children hardly pass an hour of their lives without encountering some kind of IP tie-in, yet they’re insisting they want to be “a witch and a ghost” for Halloween this year… im kind of proud

born to wear wide-legged pants while biking through france; cursed to sit at a little computer and scowl

too late. I’m taking the hobbits to isengard

I let the kids do my hair in their pretend salon and now I look pleasantly like the lead uruk-hai with the high pony
