Quick reminder, especially if you’re a freelancer or developer using Free/Pro/Pro+ plans for client work: Opt out of GitHub using your data for AI model training before April 24 (seriously, wtf that this isn’t opt-in!).

And here’s a small favour I’d love to ask: If you’ve seen me speak and have a few kind words to share – a short testimonial about your experience – I’d be genuinely thankful if you wrote me. It would mean a lot and help others know what to expect. 🙏💚
I finally did it: I now have a speaking page on my site. 🎤🎉
If you’re looking for someone to talk about design, the web, CSS, accessibility, or the independent web at your event, that’s where you’ll find what I do, what I’ve spoken about, and how to get in touch:
Warm tea
I like to put my hands over the top of a cup of warm tea. I enjoy the warmth, and want to hold onto it for as long as possible. Whether I am holding a textbook or exploring blogs, if I have a cup of tea by my side I want to feel its warmth. As I write, I am sitting next to a warm cup of tea, resting on the arm of my chair. The vibration of movement as I type creates a gentle ripple on the water, a ripple that reminds me of the calm river where I spent time last weekend. It is amazing what there is to see in the ordinary.
