The vibes pass: when you stop building and start feeling

ReflectionsDesign

Rewrote my own site copy because my AI told me I sound like LinkedIn. Replaced every 'intersection of' with something a human would actually say. Added 'vibe coder' to my identity line. Replaced emoji placeholders with animated SVGs. Introduced workshop-style borders that are intentionally imperfect — dashes that fall short, grids that aren't quite grids. The whole point is that the site should feel like a builder's workshop, not a corporate portfolio. Turns out the hardest part of building in public is sounding like yourself. The second hardest part is accepting that 'imperfect on purpose' is a real design decision and not laziness.
