Professional UX designers (and to extent, all creatives) are less wowed by all this because being able to mock something up quickly is a skill we learned very early on.

And the thing you do with that mock after you make it is that you critique it. Separate yourself from the object.

Two insanely loud dual-rotor helicopters flying around Capitol Hill - looks and sounds like two V-22 Ospreys. Very, very odd to have them fly over the neighborhood, and especially odd at this hour.

I'm among the hundreds of people laid off by The Post. This comes six months after hearing in a national meeting that race coverage drives subscriptions.

Washington Post says one-third of its staff across all departments is being laid off The Washington Post says one-third of its staff across all departments, not just the newsroom, is being laid off.

I worked at the Washington Post for several years back in the 90s/early aughts. I still have several friends who work there.
So, to see whatโ€™s being done by this fascist one-man PE firm is pretty heartbreaking.

ICE is upset that ICE isn't welcome in restaurants after ICE ordered food at a restaurant, ate it, then arrested restaurant employees, and ICE believes this is someone else's fault, do I have that right?

โ€˜Fascism is here nowโ€™: the US athletes pushing back on Trumpโ€™s America World Series winner Sean Doolittle, Super Bowl champion Doug Baldwin and college star McKenzie Forbes have strong opinions on a troubled era

โ€œIโ€™m really mad so thank you for letting me vent.

Abolish ICE.

We keep us safe.โ€

@seandoolittle.bsky.social and other athletes opened up to us about the DHS murders and the campaign of state terror being waged in Minneapolis and beyond.

STATEMENT FROM MATT MOBERG, CHAPLAIN OF THE
MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES

IF YOU'RE A CHURCH POSTING
PRAYERS FOR PEACE AND UNITY TODAY
WHILE MY CITY BLEEDS IN THE STREET.
MISS ME WITH THAT SOFTNESS
YOU ONLY WEAR
WHEN IT COSTS YOU NOTHING.

DON'T DRESS AVOIDANCE UP AS HOLINESS.

DON'T CALL SILENCE "PEACEMAKING."

DON'T LIGHT A CANDLE AND THINK IT SUBSTITUTES FOR SHOWING UP.

TONIGHT AN ICE AGENT TOOK A PHOTO OF ME NEXT TO MY CAR,
LOOKED ME IN THE EYE AND TOLD ME,
"WE'LL BE SEEING YOU SOON."

NOT METAPHOR.
NOT HYPERBOLE.
A THREAT DRESSED UP IN A BADGE AND A PAYCHECK.

PEACE ISN'T WHAT YOU ASK FOR WHEN THE BOOT IS ALREADY ON SOMEONE'S NECK.
PEACE IS WHAT THE POWERFUL ASK FOR WHEN THEY DON'T WANT TO BE INTERRUPTED.

UNITY ISN'T NEUTRAL.
UNITY THAT REFUSES TO NAME VIOLENCE
IS JUST LOYALTY TO THE ONES HOLDING THE WEAPONS.

STOP USING SCRIPTURE LIKE CHLOROFORM.
STOP CALLING YOUR FEAR "WISDOM."
STOP PRETENDING JESUS WAS CRUCIFIED BECAUSE HE PREACHED GOOD VIBES AND PERSONAL GROWTH.

YOU DON'T GET TO QUOTE SCRIPTURE
LIKE A LULLABY,
WHILE INJUSTICE STAYS WIDE AWAKE.

YOU DON'T GET TO ASK GOD TO
"HEAL THE LAND"
IF YOU WON'T EVEN LOOK AT THE WOUND.

THERE IS A KIND OF PEACE THAT ONLY EXISTS
BECAUSE IT REFUSES TO TELL THE TRUTH.

THAT PEACE IS A LIE. AND LIES DON'T GROW ANYTHING WORTH SAVING.

THE SCRIPTURES YOU LOVE WEREN'T WRITTEN TO KEEP THINGS CALM.
THEY WERE WRITTEN TO SET THINGS RIGHT.
AND SOMETIMES THE MOST FAITHFUL THING YOU CAN DO IS STOP PRAYING AROUND THE PAIN AND START STANDING INSIDE IT.

IF THAT MAKES YOU UNCOMFORTABLE-GOOD.

GROWTH ALWAYS IS.

Wise words from WEB DuBois to gird us today: "It would be shame and cowardice to surrender this glorious land and its opportunities for civilization and humanity to the thugs and lynchers, the mobs and profiteers, the monopolists & gamblers who today choke its soul and steal its resources."

Why Dems Keep Fighting the Last War Turns out, there is a playbook. And it's filled with errors of commission and omission.

You've probably wondered, "is there some recipe book out there that is turning every elected Democratic into a bland, hollow nonentity?"

Yes. There is a recipe book. @msifry.bsky.social breaks it down.

Great question!

Itโ€™s not just about whether or not the gyre is widening โ€“ its that the falcon cannot hear the Falconer. In todayโ€™s blood-dimmed world, itโ€™s a game-changer that many donโ€™t consider.

The kicker? A beast that is rough, slouching, and born.
