Being an ethical and inclusive designer does not mean that you get things right 100% of the time. Being an ethical and inclusive designer means that you actively care about ALL people using your products, and make the conscious choice to design in the best way for EVERYONE.

Any founders interested in pitching Equal Opportunity Ventures this week? They are investing $500K - $1M in Pre-Seed and Seed companies that are increasing access to economic mobility. I'd love to get you connected. Note: I'm also looking to invest in this area as well.

Seriously considering just closing my Twitter account now that El*n has decided to splash his cash. There are zero ethical billionaires, but he's another level of evil, IMO. If I disappear, you know why!

@tregaudie I've definitely been here too. And have friends who do the same. It's hard NOT to cry when the world seems so hopeless right now.

Today was my last day at Clio. For the last 4 weeks I’ve been on stress leave, which was a direct result of being gaslit whilst trying to report issues of discrimination/toxicity to the executive team. I’m sure I’ll share more at some point, but for the time being; healing 😌💙

IMO companies are going to start to see workers introducing new boundaries for their own personal wellbeing & health. Given that capitalism thrives on the exploitation of oppressed communities, I think some are in for a big shock when things like this continue to happen...

I don't know whose (mine) big idea it was to move across country with two pets, whilst selling a house and processing a breakup. All whilst still in a pandemic. And during a pretty busy period at work. But I cannot wait for the next month to be over. I'mma take the LONGEST nap.

labels can help u understand and even help u talk about yourself, but remember that u do not need to have the words to explain yourself or your gender or your sexuality or any of that stuff, u just need to do what makes u feel good and true 🤸🏼‍♂️✨

@4erepawko @laurencza Totally! A super common symptom of anxiety disorders and ADD/ADHD, I believe 😅 Learning to block out, quieten or discredit those intrusive thoughts is clutch to not feeling like everyone hates you 24/7.
