@beantin @amybphd @mjmetts @evalottchen Are you kidding me!? Wow. How is it that there are never any of these on the table when we record in your studio?

@JesperBylund @crapfutures I don’t think I’d read that since high school. Still good, thanks for the reminder!

@JesperBylund If you read about the artist’s vision though it seems it didn’t have to do so much with equality but with the intent to visualize ”the person’s real height in the visual uniformity of the sole instead of at the head, like a walking bar graph”.
Same-height party.
Hans Hemmert’s shoe extenders make everyone 6 1/2 feet (two meters) tall. The extenders made their debut at an event thrown in conjunction with Personal Absurdities, a 1997 exhibition at the Galerie Gebauer Berlin. At that party, everyone saw eye to eye.

No.
I'm wondering if companies would better adhere to GDPR if there was a companion handbook with visualized examples?
Haha, I'm obviously not really wondering. 🙄

@beantin Haha, this may have to turn into a short story.
Imagine if a leader who wanted to stay in office had a reason to impose martial law.
Imagine this leader could impose martial law during an election to exercise voter suppression.
Imagine if experts predicted an epidemic will peak close to a general election.
Imagine.
Instead of set times per day, I may just switch to answering e-mails on Fridays. Or rather, that seems to be what is happening anyway.

Here's your reminder that DNA tests do not really tell you "where your ancestors came from. They say where DNA like yours can be found on Earth today."

@jakobper @tsvenson @LiUdesign Kul! Tack! Och tack för att du berättar :)
1. Had a huge delivery yesterday that I've been working day and night to get finished on time. Very poor self-care on my part, I know, and you may have noticed some tired tweeting from me.
But wow did I just get an energy boost.
2. A half hour ago I came out of a lunch meeting where a company book club had invited me to sit with them as they discussed my book(!)
Such an amazing opportunity and so much fun. They got really concrete, discussing specific projects and what they could do differently.
3. And it all ended with a person coming up to say: "I really liked the tone of the book. Books and talks around this topic are often angry. But this was like a father sitting down with his children and telling them the ways of the world, you know like friendly."
4. I can't tell you how much this meant to me. I truly want to be considerate, and encourage rather than deflate, and am happy that I can from time to time succeed in this.
We're all in this together. I do believe we make progress by picking each other up, not by forcing blame.
5. And I know I do not always succeed and my introvert side can get the best of me - which can be interpreted as being stuck-up and difficult. And sometimes I also get angry. Like in my "rap" earlier today. There's always a balance. I take a deep breath, and get on with it.
6. My point is, I'm in a better mood. And being in a better mood makes me better at helping others. Which is what I want.
Schedule energy boosts. Tell people you appreciate them.
I believe in you. You should too.
