@CityofCT @CityofCTAlerts S Mkonto avenue in IY, Hout Bay has been without electricity since Tuesday! When will it be fixed?!

Here’s a reference number from someone else who reported: 9117709236

@heyeaslo I am all teams and all teams are me

@nicharry I do these things but whenever I come back after a hiatus it's back to one type of content only

[Laura Flint @blueflintCT]

How do I get a proper mix of content to show up in my X feed?

I still want the product / UX / UI design stuff but I also want:

Cycling
Hiking
All kinds of Photography
Traditional art / Sketchbooks / Drawing / Painting
Digital art
Cats

@0xPJCooper @DannPetty Not to mention the engineers who have to use your file

From offline and online card payments to real-time business tools, welcome to a brave new Yoco.

[Laura Flint @blueflintCT]

Proud to be a part of @Yoco_ZA → the brand team launching a refresh today

And there's even more exciting stuff to come from the product space over the next few months 🤩

The admin of this is exhausting, though, so on platforms like Twitter / TikTok / Threads I just couldn't be bothered to do the same

But I'm even struggling to get a mix of content to happen

(And on X keep away the random crypto/nft spam I couldn't give a fish about)

[Laura Flint @blueflintCT]

My biggest gripe with many popular SM platforms:

I can't segment them into my various interests and passions

@Pinterest is probably the only one who manages this in an acceptable way but that's the nature of the platform

The hacky way I deal with this on @instagram is to have multiple accounts crafted to only show me specific types of content:

Photography and cycling on one
Dressage / horse riding on the other
Art, ceramics and sketchbooks on the third
Lastly product & graphic design

[Laura Flint @blueflintCT]

I’m super into illustrating again and thoroughly enjoying spending time in my sketchbook

Shared some of my planning process for a #sketchbook spread here 👇

@persoxa_ @vt_codes Spelt a bunch of stuff wrong for a colleague of mine the other day 😂 awks

@nicoletellsit Its more fake in that place than a plastic surgeon’s waiting room 🫣

[Laura Flint @blueflintCT]

People who link their partner in their X / IG / Threads bio what is that about? 👀

Also the "Mom/Dad to Jack and Jill" thing...

[Laura Flint @blueflintCT]

@Banker__X If only our cities and towns were set up for safe commuting in other ways like reliable rail systems, cycling and walking... we are all locked in to being petrol reliant all the time

[Laura Flint @blueflintCT]

Absolutely obsessed with looking at sketchbooks at the moment

People create such amazing things hidden away in little journals and I love that 🥹

[Laura Flint @blueflintCT]

Hate a wave of anxiety coming through

Days of zoning out and being on edge

Mental health problems that aren’t constant can be frustrating and tough

[Laura Flint @blueflintCT]

Embracing my inner child and learning to draw with color pencils (again)

@harsh__86 Already on it and awaiting the logitic mouse’s arrival 🚚

[Laura Flint @blueflintCT]

New work setup 🙌

Haven’t had a monitor for a year and a half and then got blessed with the best from work 🔥
