Turns out that dumping feel-good initiatives like DEI is a money loser when your primary customer base is "people with just enough class consciousness to feel icky about shopping at Walmart"

Look, I won't argue the Brexit was a self-inflicted wound, but from what I know of the state of the industry in the UK more architects pushing wages down even further is not what's needed. New grads over there are getting a stack of used tissues and a wad of string for wages about now.

The #1 reported reason people avoid doctor’s appointments is because they’re afraid of finding out they have a serious illness. If you have that fear, that’s normal and you’re not alone. Also remember, there is basically no serious illness that isn’t less serious if you catch it sooner.

I actually hate the "lol the giant asteroid will deliver us from this suffering" jokes. Are there any other people in the progressive movement who think that humans are actually fucking amazing?

Hey NYTimes — now you’re lighting the beacons? NOW?!? After months of “Sauron: Avatar Of Evil… Or Extreme Uniter?” thumbsucker reporting you’re screaming what we’ve known since 2015? Fuck all the way off.

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

Happy Black History Month! Here is my favorite story about a Black American you may not know about: Robert Smalls. He commandeered a confederate ship and sailed himself, his family, and the other enslaved crew and their families to freedom. THROUGH waters controlled by the Confederacy.

5 ways to celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth (cause the fed govt doesn’t run your house) 1. Find out what Sojourner Truth REALLY said 2. Buy a Black horror, scifi or fantasy book 3. Listen to “Naima” by John Coltrane 4. Send the victims of the LA fires in Altadena a few coins 5. Get a library card

NOW: More than 98% of #Costco shareholders have just rejected an anti-DEI measure The attempt to force Costco to audit their #DEI work was by an anti-inclusion lobby group: "The proponent's broader agenda is not reducing risk for the Company but abolition of diversity initiatives." - Costco Board

Beyond some questionable advertisements, my fyp has felt like it’s gone WAY WAY left. Like to the point I’m getting bored of politics. Either fears that the algo has changed were unfounded, or the changes are way more insidious than previously thought

You won't believe this. My team and I make this show called SciShow that works hard to be rigorous and accurate while also being appealing and entertaining. We reach a LOT of people every year with episodes about crabs and neutrinos and gender and cancer and vaccines. It's great, I love it.

Wikipedia is one of the last major bastions of verified information. Which, of course, is why the oligarchs want to destroy it. You can donate to them here. donate.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?...

Please donate to Wikipedia, if you don’t already. We can’t let the oligarchs wrestle control of another valuable source of information away from the people.

1/7 When quick and easy fact-checking becomes the enemy: Elon Musk persists in his attacks on Wikipedia. It’s quite hypocritical for someone who claims to champion free speech! This is a clear example of fascism in action!
