@jessicamalonso @jeffseibert Thank you for your sharing this morning Jessica. I'm gonna go for a long walk in the woods with the dog now and ponder upon all this mess some more... it's a difficult thing to shake.😳

@jessicamalonso @jeffseibert Straight from the horse's mouth, no plausible denial. 😉 No, you're absolutely right.
My hope was that more techbros outside this gang get the sense to stop what they're doing. But realising now they only see how they can get a 'get-out-of-jail-free' card by 'post-confessing'.

@jessicamalonso @jeffseibert He definitely has not. I agree with the criticisms of these men not demonstrating a sound understanding of their own responsibilities or the inequality and oppression they keep perpetuating. I'm thinking they can still offer some insights on the internal thought-processes.
@jessicamalonso But in hindsight I do wish it wasn't part of this thread 😬

@jessicamalonso True, it's extremely common for me to recommend services only to hear people groan when they realise these are paid services. The expectancy that companies not be paid by customers feels like the new norm.

@jessicamalonso This is a hugely important insight. I hadn't brought my line of thinking that far. Thank you Jessica.

@incendiebruyere Wow, what a great stop for me to add for my future road trip! Thanks Heather!
I loved reading Long Way Round. Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman are now back (after a long time) in an Apple docuseries: Long Way Up. This time they're riding (or rode) from Ushuaia, Argentina to Los Angeles. On electric motorcycles! So looking forward to watching this! 🏍🏍⚡️
In love with those bikes...
New life goal.
Ending each day now with an episode of Long Way Down (towards Cape Town). It's like meditation for me. Next episode of Long Way Up is out on Friday.
The Andes episode out today!
I am such a child when it comes to this and I am LOVING it.
The Andes is the longest continental mountain range in the world, forming a continuous highland along the western edge of South America.

@yessshir Thank you Shirley. I've been trying to keep a list here of books, though it's hard to keep up, as you say. kit.co/axbom/design-e…

'The tech leaders quoted in the film are mostly white men. How might engaging with other voices address the challenges raised by the film? What are barriers to doing so?'

@gerrygaffney I do like myself som passive aggressive drama. In the right context. 😂

@DorotheaBaur 🙏 It's disheartening how many 'ethicists' grossly attack individuals. Though I'm sure I've been there myself at some point.
Ah the brilliance of AI and "smart" responses.
Question: "Does the 27th, 1st, 5th or 8th work for you?"
Google suggested responses:
"Both work for me"
"The 6th works for me"
"Yes"
0 logical suggestions out of 3 is impressive.
I have such a serious problem with saying yes to too many things...
This is a 24 hour event, so wherever you are in the world you can tune in free for several hours and get inspiration and learnings on inclusive design! If you fall asleep, rewind later. 😁

@drembasoup How did I not see that! 🙌
Also, what idiot called it “insomnia”, and not “resisting a rest”? 😝
