I worked in translation for 15 years; I made a mobile game for fun; I thought, "What do I <i>actually</i> want to do with my life?". Now I'm learning Web Development. Yay!
Also, I live in rural Germany, where I enjoy the beauty and struggles of country life.

If you have a project you've done this year that you're particularly proud of, post it here (photos, links, whatever you want). We'll end up with replies full of awesome projects!

So, my review of #Mandy.
I was very pleased with myself that I immediately recognized that the director also directed an episode of Cabinet of Curiosities on Netflix.
I really enjoyed the aesthetics and story (what story there was).
I mean the film is what is it is.
My only criticism is the existence of the scene in which Nick collects his crossbow from his friend, who explains the existence of the bikers.
The whole film is like a dream, so why feel the need to rationalize it?

Always wanted to be on a social network with an Edit button so I can spend at least 30 minutes tweaking tiny details about what I've just posted (punctuation, emojis, wording, clarity, delete, correct & re-upload that piece of carbon.now.sh code where I messed up a variable name, then notice a value in that piece of code doesn't match the post text, then decide adding a comment wouldn't hurt).

On top of spending at least 2-3 hours before posting making sure everything in the post is accurate.

Also, I was surprised to learn that you can use a #CSS custom property as the value for an attribute in HTML, like so:
<svg class="header__toggleIcon" width="20" height="20" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<g fill="var(--toggleModeFontColor)" fill-rule="nonzero">
<path d="..." />
</g>
</svg>

I'm not sure yet why it works...

Completed my first #frontendmentor challenge using #parcel

There was a learning curve, particularly with regard to how it handles relative paths. But I really liked being able to use custom media queries and nested media queries!
