Dev prototypes message bubbles that doze off, yawn and want to go outside

Developer @bycherr1hu shared a prototype that lets chat bubbles express the mood of a text. Using three phrases she sends daily, she built bubbles that doze off, yawn, and want to go outside.
It's a playful UI experiment showing how micro-interactions can add anthropomorphized emotion to messaging apps, and it's been circulating on X.
