Kicking it at The Roxie for The Beaches of Agnès. Always excited for more Agnès Varda. ☺️

Went to my first bridal shower last weekend. Interesting time all around. The bride-to-be is the fiancée of a dear friend of mine going back to high school, which meant his sister, mother, and step-mother were also all in attendance—none of whom I’ve seen in 30 years.

Also, we won the TP wedding dress competition (last photo)!

I spend a crazy amount of time in this restroom in the building of my electrologists before my appointments, waiting for the topical anesthetic to soak in. I always block it off as OOO in my work calendar; I always end up conducting work over Slack on my itty bitty iPhone 13 mini.

I don’t like to edit my photos, so I had to lean on my red and yellow filters quite a bit in Ireland, where it was perpetually a bit gray.

There is photo with a hat on a head and eyeballs looking at your eyeballs. 

My first management hat. 🥰

The entire @pocket team is in town this week for an on-site. 🥰

For our first meal together, we rolled the dice and ended up with a royal feast. Like most teams at @mozilla, Pocket is geographically distributed; it’s so refreshing (and rare) to have everyone in the same place at the same time—a dinner like this is a treasure.

Still sorting out how to photograph this city. 🫤

Apple has responded to our Pride theme by spotlighting Pocket in two different collections in the App Store.

I can’t overstate how much we appreciate that: making a statement like this invites a fair amount of hate mail; it’s incredible when a big player steps in to lend some support.

Pocket’s Pride-themed release is rolling out to 1% of users today.

This is the first of our themed releases, where we decorate the app inside and out with thematic colors and content.

The cascade of minor apartment advances: I bought a sofa and then a desk, then I hung some art, and finally I had friends over. I even baked popovers.

I need to sort out a few more things like refreshing the paint, and having cushions made for the window seats, but I’m starting to feel settled.

Or will, once I cycle out all the moving boxes that I broke down for recycling.

This is the sanguine expression of someone whose electrolysist is off taking her break. 😂

In all seriousness, I adore my electrolysist. I do’t know exactly what possessed me to take a selfie mid session, but I think it might have been because I was having fun in spite of the pain.

Basic models of flocking behavior are controlled by three simple rules: 1) separation: avoid crowding neighbours (short range repulsion); 2) alignment: steer towards average heading of neighbors; 3) cohesion: steer towards average position of neighbors (long range attraction). With these three simple rules, the flock moves in an extremely realistic way.
