@ruthmalan.bsky.social’s Systems Theory and Practice workshop is ao popular that it’s become standing-room only! #ExploreDDD

Filters? I don’t know her 🤷🏾‍♀️

Target CEO meeting with Al Sharpton to discuss DEI rollback. I feel like nobody has explained to him: 1) There are no magical negroes in real life. 2) Even if there were, that's not the magical negro of appeasing Black consumers. He can't folk-fable your business into being palatable again. Sorry.

Some Senior VP at Target: Sir we thought The Blacks (TM) would let this go and come back but they haven't come back. They haven't come back sir! CFO: The line must go up, but it keeps going down! CEO, wearily removing glasses: It's time SVP: Sir, you don't mean-- CEO: Get me Al Sharpton

Hey #ExploreDDD, it’s a violation of the laws if physics to have @ruthmalan.bsky.social and @jessicakerra.bsky.social in the same slot! I’m literally gonna have to split myself into two!

Best quote from @lanooba.com today “Resilience is not what happens to you. It's how you react to, respond to, and recover from what happens to you.”

Funny but true from Zsofia Herendi’s business model canvas session at #ExploreDDD

Fearless Change Patterns was such a fun and fabulous session. Thank you MaryLynn!! #ExploreDDD

I’m learning so much about Fearless Change from MaryLynn Manns. For example when you have a meeting - especially a contentious one - use the “Do Food” patterns! Essentially eating is an act of bonding and community and can help Love this! 🙌🏾 #ExploreDDD

Great point by Joe Yoder at #ExploreDDD is that Agile (at least as a product) has failed because of its over-emphasis on process to the detriment of the system.

Such a great keynote!!

So many gems from @mentrix.bsky.social’s keynote re: architecture and systems! 🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾 #ExploreDDD

It’s conference time!! #ExploreDDD

Lololololol.

Risky-ass salmon! 😹 Anxiety drugs found in rivers make salmon take more risks www.npr.org/2025/04/14/n...

They laid a trap for Mohsen Mahdawi at his citizenship interview & abducted him instead of going through with his interview for citizenship.

Exactly!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Black kids deserve to be doted on, loved unconditionally and spoiled. The world is already tough enough!

Personhood is granted & taken away. It's lucky not to have to know. Most of my ancestors on this continent did not have legal personhood for centuries. Any psych survivor can tell you what it's like for your personhood to be stripped so things that cannot be done to people can be done to you.

This is horrible and maybe now academics in the global north who have always traveled freely without the added worry of visa and immigration concerns will have some empathy for academics from the global South for whom this is actually the norm i.e. harassment at borders and visa denials.

Megan brought Queen Latifah out at Coachella 😮‍💨🔥 love to see Queen get her flowers

These two carry the secrets of the ancestors in their hips. Praise them.

I don't think it ever will. No matter how many MAGA remnants and devotees get removed and we are able to rebuild? We will forever be known as a nation that was dim enough to let a reality show conman rapist Nazi hold power.

The other thing that's interesting is people who have quit target say they're buying less overall. Like yeah Costco is getting some of the traffic, but you don't really pop into Costco to just get one thing and walk out with 20 items the way ppl said they did with Target

“The European Commission is issuing burner phones and basic laptops to some US-bound staff to avoid the risk of espionage — a measure traditionally reserved for trips to China.”

America doesn’t know how to function without free/cheap labor cuz it never intended to be without slaves.

Allergies, dawg

To everyone replying “they voted for it” when we talk about immigrant rights: The Hispanic community is NOT a monolith and 53% voted for Harris. We organized, knocked on doors, and led weekly caravans for Harris-Walz. Blanket statements erase the work of a community that showed up for democracy.

Yup. Did that 23 years ago and never looked back!

Not entertaining that shit. Chris Brown has one octave, song and move for the last 20 years. Fuck outta here.

there is simply no amount of child death that will move RFK to change his mind because he is a predatory narcissist who cares less about health than the gratification of his own ego

I just learned that China has been on TikTok exposing western luxury brands for making their products in China and lying about it. China is now selling some of the items directly, cutting out the the middle man (luxury brand) and selling the items for a fraction of the price. Some thoughts. . . .

The takeaway from this should not be "keep shopping," but rather reexamine what you're consuming and why in the first place.

This take down is SO GOOD China said bet you want to play games we are the kings of petty we told you been here for 5,000 years. Now releasing all of the information of how everything in the world is made. China did the work and everybody put their name on the group project. DRAG US CHIA 😂😎

Loud reminder.

I feel like being really into AI is a character flaw.

My day in a nutshell

It’s been a minute…💖
