On leaving Twitter: Deactivate an app that tolerates bigotry & welcomes the spreading of abuse & misinformation. Yes. Being part of this is not doing any good. Personally, politically, socially. For a day, a week, forever: your call. It’s just a good time to go. #DeactiDay
We need communication that's more lasting, more contemplative, and more challenging in an uplifting way. That's where I'm headed next.

Reading The Politics of Design by @unlisted_roots and absolutely enthralled. Recommend for anyone who works in digital #UX or #UI. Deconstructing bias and examining assumptions = the first step towards #inclusion. #a11y – at Arlington, VA
Amazed and humbled that my favourite meeting today will definitely be this project retro with a (beloved) client. So much mutual respect, makes the work awesome.
If everyone is a designer (whether good or bad), and all design is political (whether intentional or not), what world are you making? #UX #inclusion #ethics
