Buckle Up
The three signs below are all aiming for the same outcome - buckle up
Each message takes a different approach to achieve that desired behavior.
1. Referencing the lifesaving benefits of wearing a seatbelt probably speaks to riders who believe road travel is in fact dangerous and they should buckle up to avoid the possibility of death.
3. Referencing the punishment for breaking the law seeks to inform riders that if you don't wear your seatbelt you can get a ticket of at least $142. This probably speaks to riders who are cost conscious.

Feelings wheel (emotions)
If we are aware of our emotions and feelings that is great.
Most of the time we might only be aware of the core feeling.
To really get an understanding of what you are feeling, you can view the next 2 rings.
For example,
Anger > Frustrated > Infuriated / Irratated
Happy > Joyful > Liberated / Ecstatic
By identifying the deeper level emotion you can be more self-aware. You can also use this tool in the other direction. If you are aware of a deeper emotion you can express to your relationships how you are feeling. This will help them to connect and understand your state of mind. Not by knowledge alone, rather because they are more likely to have had that core feeling and then can relate to your situation.

Brutus Buckeye - AI Generated artwork
Computers are getting smarter. There is a website that can generate artwork based on typed input.
This is artwork based on the phrase "Portrait of Brutus the Buckeye as a human"
Honestly, that could be a photo of a real fan - Buckeye fans are nuts!
Peeling a peel
Have you ever considered that we use the work peel to refer to the outer layer of a banana as well as the action of removing the outer layer of a vegetable.
This wonderful person is peeling the peel of a banana.

Product features vs User Needs
Sometimes what product team thinkgs the user needs is not actually what the user needs.

Front-end vs Back-end view: Guardians of the Galaxy
Here are side-by-side photos of the movie, Guardians of the Galaxy. The character Rocket is a Racoon. The actor playing Rocket is wearing a suit. The work that goes into making the front-end is often messy and looks nothing like the final product.

Reports available: Optical Illusion
I saw this graphic on a website. The two fields of green in the background meet at an angle and make it seem like the entire graphic is sloped downward. I don't think it was intentional.

Powerpoint: Subtitles feature
I clicked "Slideshow" while connected to a projector and this pop-over was displayed.
I was about to start my meeting so I didn't have time to tinker with it.
This really isn't the best time to tell me about new features. Worse off, if I happened to be interested, but not able to explore they didn't offer any information about how to get back to this.
The button label was off-center. I clicked anyway.
This pop-up was displayed.
Notice the bottom-right corner has a system status label "listening."
Here is a detailed view of the pop-over:
I clicked the "Got it" button, and this was displayed:
Again, why is the button label off-center?
The feature seems interesting, but that is not the time to tell me about it.
Perhaps a learning mode or check my calendar, it is integrated.

Knoll Monitor Arm is Very Clever
The monitor arm is a great way to free up space on your desk.
The tension needs to be adjusted on a rare occasion and that is the moment you wish you had the right size of Allen wrench at hand.
Knoll's monitor arm has an Allen wrench holder built right in.
Very clever.
Google Sheets: Cmd+1
Excel has a keyboard shortcut of CMD+1 to open the Format menu.
If you press CMD+1 while using Chrome typically the first browser tab is displayed.
However, when using Google Sheets the application recognized it as a desire to format the cells.
Great UX!
User types CMD+1, and this is displayed:
