Retrospective done. Day done. Week done. Done. Time to roast a shit load of veggies of tofu for dinner and play dumb ass video games. Hoping y&#39;all have a good weekend.

Ah yes. The day before a long weekend is an absolutely _ideal_ time for the toilet to break. Sigh.

Ninety minutes after taking some painkillers I caught myself thinking &quot;the knee pain has almost gone — if you&#39;d waited you could have skipped the painkillers&quot;. Listening to my brain produce bullshit like this is sobering :-)

Been unpacking some old storage boxes recently — and I'd forgotten that I had the edition _before_ the title change to "The Design Of Everyday Things" #ux #nostalgia

RE: https://mastodon.social/@grimalkina/116411182370554829 Making a note of June 23, 2026 — which is when I can pre-order this. I don&#39;t think there is another upcoming book I am as excited to read.

Been tidying up some boards before the new year — amongst which is my blogging board… which includes a "discarded ideas" column… so this is what I _didn't_ write about this year: * On Define The Damn Thing discussions. * The pain pushing people back to more comfortable behaviours — that then continue to fail to work as the org scales. * ReOps in smaller orgs. * Is doing effective user research easier? * Recruiting people. * What if… not everything had to be in Jira?
