I've been thinking a lot about connection lately.
When I was working, I had a readily available community of people to connect with. There used to be better avenues to connect with like-minded folks online, too (R.I.P. old twitter). I miss opportunities that these communities provided for the kind of connection that happens when we discover something unexpected we have in common, like we both binged the same weird podcast or can't stop listening to the same song.
I've also been thinking about how, as I spend more time online, I sometimes feel like I'm managing different personas and my QA one is just a slice of who I am.
So I created a new page called Lately where I'll keep a running list of what's been catching my attention beyond the usual QA content. The rule (because I like rules 😆): only things I've already consumed, not the endless pile of stuff I plan to get to someday. Trying to keep it from turning into a bookmark graveyard.
Check it out and if something resonates or if you think I'd be into something I'm missing, reach out. I'd love to have more 'you have to check this out' conversations! ✨
