Hooray! Spring is coming! The Canadian Geese are back! 🥰

RIP Queen Maya Pupaya 😭

Winter sunsets around here are more subtle and (often my favourite).

I have been asked before how I could be nonbinary since I have a big beard.

So here is how, explained in 3 easy steps!

1) Be nonbinary

2) Dislike shaving

3) Prefer how I Iook with a beard.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

@FlashMobOfOne thanks! That’s great to hear! There are some positions I could work with but they are hybrid or in office so no go, unfortunately. I’ve been fully remote since 2010

One thing adding #AI to every service has shown me is that we have an answer to a question I often wondered about in my role working in #cx in #Tech

Q: “How much do companies truly care about their customers?”

A: “As little as they possibly can get away with.”

Also if you are seeing this and thinking “my company isn’t like this” then awesome! Please let me know. I’d love to support companies like that.

Plus I’m on the #Job hunt so interested in potential working relationships with companies that care about their customers/end users and the impact the company has on the world.

This is why we need self-compassion. 🥰

@jacklaridian @alchemistsstudio @jacklaridian as someone who was there and is queer, I'd ask that you please check your privilege as an ally.

Pride exists to centre #lgbtq experiences, not to dilute them for straight consumption. "Family friendly" is ok, and it's a kind of progress, yes, but it's not welcoming for all.

The event felt like a kids' carnival, and the drag show was all straight folks. It decentred #lgbtq folks from #pride

And that's not right.

@jacklaridian please keep in mind https://mstdn.social/@alchemistsstudio/112626656775313019

@jacklaridian I get that and feel similarly. But also feel quite hopeless so it’s easier to ignore it and swallow that pain than yell since it’s like yelling into the void. The institutions exist to support the power staying with those who have it, so there is lots of gaslighting and denial and victim blaming.

So it can be easier to just eat the hurt. Which sucks.

@jacklaridian hiya! Totally agree with you on this. Especially as a former catholic and grown queer person. I often think of posting stuff like this but feels like since the church doesn’t care, that it feels for moot. Can I ask, for you, what compels you to post about it?

We experience the world as it fades into view….like an old monitor 🤔🤯🖥️
