🗣️TRANSPHOBIA AFFECTS ALLLLLLLLLLL Women 🫵🏾

As media sites get deleted/companies fold, we gotta talk about where the rights to articles go. Do the rights fall to the writers? Can the stories be published in anthologies? If it’s your property now, what all can you do with your work? 📝

Research shows that highlighting different perspectives can increase both productivity and team cohesion. https://t.co/QTsMmK8T3h

People who love their work shouldn’t judge those who don’t. Enjoying a job is not a sign of virtue—it’s a mark of fit.

Many people don’t have the luxury of finding their passion or the freedom to follow it.

If you're lucky enough to like work, don't be smug. Be grateful.

What a staggering story. A 2-year investigation from the Associated Press finds that prison labor is connected to hundreds of millions of dollars worth of goods, sold by some of the biggest food companies. https://t.co/cGfUSFvwgm

📢 Interested in what accessible data visualization research *actually* means for non-vision disabilities? Our @ieee_tvcg paper, ‘Beyond Vision Impairments: Redefining the Scope of Accessible Data Representations,’ reveals how we can broaden data access for various disabilities🌟

“The changes are affecting students’ choices as well. Nearly 13% of graduating high school seniors acknowledged DeSantis’ “education policies” as the reason they w not enroll in Florida’s Coll & 5% of currently enrolled students plan to transfer outside of Fl for the same reason”

Need some research-based inspiration?

Here's a recap of 10 studies that every teacher should know about, from AI, to new neuroscience research, to the surprising—yet effective—ways to move the needle for student learning. 🤖 🧠 👇 https://t.co/IhyNLL17np

[Tanisha Long @Tanishaevonne]

Academic culture has trained us to believe that formal education qualifies us to disqualify the lived experiences of directly impacted people and we need to end that ideology and adopt new praxis.

You don't blow up universities unless you're trying to destroy a people, their culture and their future.

You know what I realized about Ai images in your marketing? It sends out the message that you've got no budget. It's the digital equivalent of wearing an obviously fake Chanel bag. Your whole brand immediately appears feeble and impoverished

In just 8 weeks, Israel killed 86 journalists in Gaza.

This is the highest toll of journalists killed during a “war” in modern history.

Private detention provider Adelphoi rakes in $7,800 a day, long before taxpayer-funded renovations of Allegheny County's juvenile detention center are complete.

Every day Israeli planes bomb a city of 2.2 million people, a city that does not have an airforce, and commit massacres slaughtering hundreds of people. This is not a war. They’ve killed over 21,000 people, over 8,000 kids with their cowardly airstrikes. It is evil.

I wrote this short summary of our #NoTechForApartheid event co-hosted with @haymarketbooks. I came away from the event thinking that this is even worse than I knew and that we have even more of a responsibility to say #NoTechForApartheid. This is the post: https://t.co/psWIbtiXKr

I will continue to say that we had the once in a lifetime opportunity to rethink public education in robust and creative ways during the pandemic. I assert that we wasted that time trying to get back "to normal". It's depressing to think about what schools could have been.
