Aerial PARTIAL view of the anti racist, anti fascist crowd in Belfast right now. City Hall to the left for scale. This - this is the real Belfast. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

Reasons for hope from Belfast! A huge turnout today at Belfast City Hall to stand again hate and against fascism!

Happy birthday to Curtis Mayfield, born on this day in 1942!

Sad & terrifying. Feels very Black Mirror. Google reading your private communications & content and blending the agenda of hidden highest bidders into its responses. All via what sounds more like a gated community than the open web. As far as hallucinations go, surely this is one bad fucking trip.

Wow. This piece by @arn.is an incredibly thought-provoking analysis of the current state of the design profession, and some promising proposals for a way forward. One of the best things I’ve read in a while.

Am I missing functionality, or do Figma purposely make creating and managing variables/tokens tedious and so fucking annoying? I mean, no simple duplication of a group/child, no duplication of collections… Maybe less AI fanfare and more attention to improving these core features. #designsky

Jack White is so badass and I love it.

In my experimenting with AI, I've seen the latest breaks in workflow—coming in and out of markdown/code-block format, etc, etc… But getting your output confuddled in this context? 🫣 Not so intelligent.

Great album for a sunny day—bring me back to many a 90s summer’s day. It was nearly Wild Wood, but it’s been a while with this one.
