If you were wondering
Update 1/13/2024: This post is about an old blog from Blogger that was called the thoughts bubble.
I wanted this to be called Thought Bubble. But someone took it.
Then I tried The Thought Bubble , someone took that as well.
Its not fair because the first one has not been written in since the year 2000, and the second one was removed. Yet I am still unable to utilize those URL’s.
I believe that they should archive blogs that have not been active for 9 years. I mean seriously, what are the odds of that person to come out of the blue and return to blogging.
Lastly, I settled for The Thoughts Bubble. Kind of ironic, this blog is supposed to be the pallet on which I am going to place my artwork. The art being writing, and the title itself makes no sense and is more than likely grammatically incorrect.
That is a metaphor for life.

“This way, the interface does not get in the way.”
Ilya Birman on his blog talks about interfaces that unnecessarily slow people down, in a series of two posts. In the first one, titled “Let me click,” Birman shows a few places that force the user to go through a roundabout series of clicks, instead of tak...
via Unsung August 24, 2026Anger, Anxiety and Agency
Sean Goedecke wrote a post arguing that you should never be angry at work — a post with which I strongly agree. Anger can be a useful signal, but being angry at work rarely improves the situation. More often, it makes life worse for the people around you,...
