She gets it 😌

If you start your linkedin post with a false and inflammatory just to say "make no sense, isn't it?" after the read more just know that I despise you and you are a pathetic little bitch.

People truly are pulling facts out of their asses

"Most founders think hiring a freelancer means "low quality""

Sir what are you talking about? SOURCE???

If a designer is freelancing and stays employed it's because they are good enough to not have to get a shitty underpaid permanent position at the risk of being laid off and replaced by AI.

For reasons I can't explain I'm on the French side of Linkedin and I possibly hate it more than the English one...

What do you mean "ce designer a vibe codè 10+ projets" why are you talking about yourself in third person?

Also can we stop with the 10+. Just say 11 and move on.

Just my personal opinion on Apple's brand new Liquid Glass UI... Just kidding, no one cares! No one cares about it. Go to the settings and turn it off. Stop complaining about it like it's violating the Geneva Convention. Having an iPhone is not a human right.

Not everything is a design problem btw. Some problems require a guillotine.

If I see another pathetic little corporate bitch (gender neutral) use generative ai to make themelves look like a studio ghibly character I swear to god. I swear. I. Mh.

"If you want to stand out as a product designer you can't just sit on your ass and design. You have to put content out there every day to-"

Ok but consider this: I don't want to.

I don't want to use chat GPT to write about something I am supposedly an expert about for people to click on one of the suggested options ("So true!" "Thank you for saying that" "Well said") without even reading so we can all get our little numbers up.

I am Very Good at my job. You need someone to this this very job. What's not clicking?

If you use the blush emoji when describing a new AI feature what are you even doing.

Stop jerking off to Elon Musk's post-hair transplant pics.

Boo-hoo big boy I'm sorry there's not enough advertising in your advertising.

It's a car. Do you have enough money to buy it? Try it. What else do you want?

Oh, oh, you want to feel important enough to be persuaded? Grow up.

Fuck ragebait

If I get mad at ragebait, the engagement farmers will win. What a stupid conundrum. I read the dumbest take, and all I want to do is let them know how dumb they are, but that's exactly what they want: for me to waste my time debating while they monetise my rage labour.

So I don't.

But even if I scroll past, a crumb of that rage settles inside me, it becomes internalised. I'm not mad at that take anymore (what was it about anyway? 10 reason why you are stuck in your shitty job? AI is the future and if you're not on board you will be left behind?), I'm mad at the pollution it's part of, like microplastic in the ocean of my life.

Like, look at this.

Fuck all the way off. I'm posting you on Tumblr. No one is getting a penny for this! Not a shred of useful exposure. Get wrecked!

Everyday I log onto LinkedIn. Everyday I get mad. I do not reply to the posts that make me mad because that's where I look for jobs. This blog is my virtual shower where I bitch about the industry and win arguments in my head.
