Recently discovered this well made library.
I would say, get to know yourself. For me, I know I am not very productive around lunch time, so I work around that.
Fitting music can get me in the direction I want most of the time, so I cherish my Spotify library.
Sometimes just working through it helps. Just move things around, do anything related to the project. Pushing your self when you don't want to is hardest part of any job I guess, but the best work I have done, has gone through one or more phases of "I hate you, design".
Good luck, and have lots of walks.

You should take a look at Pinboard. Its simple, reliable and you can choose to use 3rd party apps that support its API if you want more tailored experience.
I personally use it as massive reference board for anything I find useful online so that all I have to remember is tag structure I use to find it.
Its not free, but why should it be when you literally pay for it to exist.

I wonder why I don’t see more people complaining about line-height issues for some fonts? This stuff has been there for over a year.
This example background lines are 25 pixels, yet font line-height says its 22:
And probably the most annoying one:
Surprised no one had posted this already.

Used to use Chrome for devtools, and Safari at home for its speed and light weight on battery.
Recently switched to Firefox, as the new release seems to have best of both and is not made by Google.
