Car problem (MG HECTOR)

Hey everyone,

I drive an MG Hector (manual), and today after about 35 km in really heavy traffic, I started facing an issue:

Clutch pedal became noticeably harder

Gear shifts got stiff, especially getting into 1st

This started suddenly after the traffic stretch.

Could this be just clutch overheating from stop-go traffic, or does it sound like a hydraulic/clutch issue?

Would appreciate any insights before I take it to a mechanic.

I think my 9–5 killed my “build after work” energy (designers, need your take)

I recently started working full time and everyday after work i become a completely different person

i used to freelance before this so evenings meant work, edits, clients, building stuff

now?

i come back home, sit down for “a bit” open my phone… and its 11:47 already

and it’s not even like i’m fully exhausted just lazy in a very specific after-7pm way

And I’m trying to get out of it because I actually want to build my own agency, not just think about it.

But doing that alone, every single evening, after work? Clearly not working.

So I started thinking…

Content creators have content houses.

Startup founders have co-working spaces.

Gym bros have training groups.

Why don’t designers have something like that?

Imagine this: A small group of designers.

All working 1–2 hours every evening. Not freelancing randomly but actually building something together. Sharing clients, improving each other’s work, staying accountable.

Not some corporate thing. Not some boring “networking” group.

More like:

“Hey, we all showed up today. Let’s build.”

I don’t know exactly what this turns into yet. But I know doing it alone after a full day of work is hard and im pretty sure many think about it too

So I’m putting this out here

If you’re a designer who:

• wants to do more than just your 9–5

• is tired of just consuming content every night

• actually wants to build something real

Drop a comment or DM me.

Let’s see if we can create something like a “design house” just without the house (for now).

And if you’re around HSR, even better makes this easy to do consistently.

And there’s this opportunity at the hub they have this co building thing we can also discuss that

If it sounds like u are sounds intersting drop me a comment or dm I’ll get back
