Happy Birthday to me! Channeling Jenna Marbles and all of her 32-year-old-lady energy this year. ✨

Never seen one of these in a hotel room before..

My first crochet project with chenille yarn! It's tricky to see the stitches but I love how soft the final plush is. 🥹

Yeah Weapons is good, but have you seen Zach Cregger's first film? (while you're there please watch the entire WKUK backlog, it's all so good and I'm so happy they're still releasing their old sketches)

Found time today to goof around with the studio homepage! Now I just need to build the rest of the website... 🫠 www.gubbins.studio

Asking for PR reviews. Very demure. Very polite.

I'm building the design system I always wanted! 🥰 A source of design truth that syncs with production code. Context and descriptions. Huge utility for everyone, not just developers! It's a work in progress but if you'd like a little nosey you can see it on Storybook here: storybook.vouchsafe.id

A humble wishlist for the Nintendo Direct: 🤞 - Ace Attorney 7 - Persona 4 remake - Release date for Witchbrook

We're creating new tools and launching new features at a blistering pace, but what are we actually making with them?

I have been back and forth over the span of 5 years about whether to publish this article. All opinions and experiences in this post are my own, or from people I personally know, backed up with recent reports and statistics.

When you work a four day week, Friday is Side Quest day.

Not ashamed to admit I've been looped into another Busted phase. They were good in my teens and they're still good now.

Just realised, I treat Claude like Mr Meeseeks! Put a button, summon a magical lil guy to solve your problem then disappear forever.

I'm turning my @frontendnorth.bsky.social talks into a series of articles! Starting with the motivation behind our modern vouching design: amymrogers.medium.com/inclusive-by...

Half way through the year, thought I'd do a spot of reflection www.amyrogers.design/blog/2025/04... (also rebuilt my website again because why not, Astro Micro is very lovely to use 🔬).

Somehow this is the only photo I took of my time at @frontendnorth.bsky.social

For our design system we needed a way to share the icons available in our codebase, so I made a little library! You can set the size and colour then copy the JSX component directly. I love Storybook so much. 🥹

Exciting update!!

Me watching everyone else play Switch 2 tomorrow because I didn't pre-order one...

I know the lighting and make-up are doing some work here, but it's been six months since I went back to keto and I'm shocked at how much I've changed! Feeling very proud of myself. 🥹

Spending the day with @notion.com at SXSW London today. Come and say hi if you're here too! 👋

From now on I only want to listen to music that makes me feel like an anime protagonist from the 90s. youtu.be/l446hUqQ7GY?...

May photo dump 🌞

Really looking forward to this conference, come and join us if you're near Sheffield on July 10th! 🙌

I've had this goober on my desk for a couple of weeks now, unfinished. Any ideas on what to turn it into? 🧶

Are you even a Brit on a train journey if you aren't drinking a tiny overpriced wine?

Finally finished my crochet jumper! This took about 20-25 hours of my life but I'm so pleased with the final result. 🥹🧶

Two years after joining the Notion Ambassador program, I'm finally getting my hands on one of these bad boys. Whoever at @notion.com got this through to me, thank you, you've made my day. 🥰

What did you make today? Or yesterday? I'm not fussy, I just want to see what brought you joy this week. 👀

Thoughts and prayers for me trying to complete this tiny puzzle that is almost all plain white pieces...

Combining my two current obsessions, Notion and crochet. 🧶

Crochet progress! Running out of yarn so I'm sticking with the smaller size. Maybe I can use it as a desk mat or something? Just need to finish the border and block it and I'll finally be done.

Sometimes life has wonderful things planned for you, and you kinda just need to let them happen. 💛

Tattoo #2 finally booked in! Nervous about the permanence but also excited for the change. ✨

It's aliiiive! 🧟‍♀️

I've tried so many colour generators and most are okay, but this one is perfect: hihayk.github.io/scale/ 🧑‍🍳👌

I didn't have a blocking board. But I do have a 3D printer, some chopsticks, and plenty of patience for shenanigans. So now I do have a blocking board. 🤷‍♀️

One last amble around the Welsh countryside before we head home tomorrow!

2025 off to a strong start, finally got the hang of the willow granny square! 🧶

I've seen loads of posts from folks wanting more fun in 2025. Absolutely yes! This year let's work hard but play harder. 💪

In retrospect, the things I'm proudest of this year are the projects where I has the most fun. Let's do more of that in 2025. 💪

Without downloading any new pics what's your energy going into 2025?

Me: I have no time for side projects. Also me:

When your old employer forgets to remove you from their internal channels and you can see them talking shit about you in the comments... 🙊

I have cursed this Rubik's cube 👹

I do like beehiiv a lot but this is ridiculous. If you don't have a paid plan you cannot submit support tickets, even for bugs? Frustrating!

Finally made time today to build a website for my domain: amyrogers.design It's my first time using Astro to build something from scratch, it was genuinely so much fun and really quick to pick up.

Still one of my favourite projects for this year, making goofy watch faces for my Fitbit. 🤓
