Stop looking at screens. Start looking at the world. For a long time, I’ve been told to keep UX in its box. Keep it in the Figma files. Keep it in the wireframes. Keep it in the “user journeys” for apps that help people buy things they don’t need. But my brain doesn’t work […]
Listen, we need to talk. Not the “sit-down-and-look-at-my-slides” kind of talk, but the kind where I tell you the house is on fire while everyone else is arguing about the drapes. As someone who spends too much time staring at UX and AI, I’m telling you straight: the digital world is getting meaner, faster. This […]
What do Bianca Belair, the WWE Performance Center, and AI Strategy have in common? More than you’d think. If you’ve been staring at Machine Learning terms until your eyes bleed, congrats. You’re just as crazy as I am. So, we’ll be insane together. Pull up a chair. Professor Anderson is officially in the building. You […]
I’m not Nostradamus so don’t hold me to this, but we’re in for something different in 2026. It’s gonna be pay-to-play better. We’ll see ads on AI platforms, that’s how companies keep the lights on. We’ll get basic “premiumish” service on the free tier. Also, we’ll be locked in. Nah, not in the way that […]
Sometimes you get so bored you wanna design something. So, here it is, my take on “Resident Evil 8” Before some jumps on me – I know there’s technically a part 8, but I like the urban grit ones better.
Let’s cut the corporate crap. We’re drowning in talk about AI: “synergies,” “optimizations,” “disruptions.” Most of it is either terrified hype or utterly soulless. I’m here to tell you about something far more interesting, far more human, and frankly, a lot more fun. I call it AI-as-a-Partner (AaaP)™. It’s not a tool. It’s a relationship. […]
How being too good at your job terrifies recruiters—and how to fix the mess. You walk into the interview feeling like a God, your Ori/Godhead/Ka/Higher Self shining and ready. You’ve got the experience. You’ve got the technical chops. You’ve solved problems this company hasn’t even realized they have yet. You put it all on the […]
There’s a rumor going around that the em-dash is a “bot tell.” That acts like using a specific piece of punctuation marks you as a machine. That is absolute, unadulterated bullshit. It’s the kind of paranoia that makes boring people feel smart. They see a long line breaking up a sentence and think, […]
Dark patterns are just traps wrapped in pretty UI. They’re sprinkled with dopamine dust and shipped straight to your impulsive little prefrontal cortex. Everyone is vulnerable to this mess. But if you’ve got ADHD? Congratulations. You’re basically walking around with a neon sign that says, “Please manipulate me.” I’m right there with you. My brain […]
I’m about to tell you something that not enough people do, customer experience is a big part of your company’s user experience. When people hear user experience they think design. “Make that shit pretty and we’ll go from there.” “Shut up and design and make them want to buy!” Good design is all fine and […]
