I’ve been slowly working on my iOS app for months. My day job has been stressful, but I’ve been able to work on my app two to three times a week.

I’m aiming to launch in a month! I’m so close!

I feel so much better when i wake up now.

I don’t understand these people that give so much of their life to corporate America, especially when they have young children.

Work got crazy for a few months and I’m finally on the other side of it. I feel like I’ve gotten my life back.

I teetered on the edge of burnout. And i worked with people that worked more hours than me, and i don’t understand how they aren’t burnt out.

I’ve been getting obsessed with cooking and my latest obsession: donuts!

Should I start a donut pop up 👀

Watching horror movies with my cats is funny because chaos and fear are leaping from the screen and they simply yawn during their nap.

They know not what terrors haunt our living room.

Reminder that you really should never sell during these market down turns. A good way to prevent yourself from feeling you need to sell is to keep a good, liquid emergency fund.

It’s boring but it works.

Kinda crazy how the entire world seems to be stressed and experiencing mild psychosis all at the same time,m

Very proud of Cory Booker.. what he’s doing is exactly the type of nonviolent protest we need right now.

We need more people to stand up to Trump’s bullying. Trump’s tactics only work if we don’t fight back.

But I have an idea for a project I believe will be a great product and will actually generate income. So I’m a bit hyped up on that.

Soon!

I’m working towards releasing a mobile app and I’m kind of glad I’m getting to the end.

It will most likely make very little money, unfortunately.

But I shipped something! That’s the goal.

I’m still passionate about the project, which is why I’m getting over the finish line.

I am primarily a frontend dev but I’ve picked up some design ability over the years.

Wondering if I should lean into that and go deep into design and figma. Seems like there is a lot of demand for design consulting.

Also, I’ve been very interested in Product Engineer roles when I imagine my future

The overt bot support and algo bias destroys any credibility from that website

when i was young & desperate for a job i went to an 'interview' that ended up being about selling heavy, expensive vacuum cleaners door to door- very clearly a scam targeting the elderly. the SSA stuff happening now makes me think about the lies those guys had to tell themselves about what they do

Refactoring the entire social security system from COBOL to java… in months?

Did DOGE hire my old project manager?

The only thing I want X for is to celebrate each win on the way to the title #LFC #YNWA

The For You tab on X is a window into a dystopian reality.. it’s absolutely insane how much propaganda it pushes.

I’m getting to the point where I want to delete the app in protest.

Part of it is because of all the shit republicans stirred up over Hillary’s email server.

Unfortunately both parties in this country like to bomb people when in power.

I pretty much fully built a web app that lets you look up someone’s Bluesky name and lets you sort their posts by likes, reposts etc

Should I release it?

It’s over. He’s playing for that devil club next year. This has been his plan since 2021 when he only signed for 4 years.

Yeah I hear you. The actual app is like a GitHub commit graph for workouts, meditation, and sleep. So I’m trying to convey the UI through the icon. But maybe I should just go hyper simple and not try to do that.

@spreen.co I made all the colors one opacity, hopefully not as busy (border is just there for shape, won’t be on final icon). And also experimenting with some dark mode icons.
