i canโ€™t be the only one who was in college for computer science in 2015 and thought Halseyโ€™s song Gasoline lyrics were โ€œi think thereโ€™s a fault in my codeโ€ and today found out itโ€™s actually โ€œi think thereโ€™s a flaw in my codeโ€ ๐Ÿ˜…

one of the most annoying things is being on hold on a phone call and hearing a promotion about using their app instead. like i wouldnโ€™t being calling if i could achieve what i wanted to from the app ๐Ÿ˜ญ

as some who works at the intersection of disability and mobile/web tech, itโ€™s incredibly humbling to be dealing with a wrist overuse injury (1/2)
