Kimiko Does Cancer is a fantastic graphic memoir, and I highly recommend anyone to add this to their summer reading list!

[Room Magazine @RoomMagazine]

"Kimiko Does Cancer is about seeking connection within the cancer community while confronting issues that do not fit into the mainstream cancer narrative."

@nsvan reviews @kimikotobimatsu's insightful graphic memoir, KIMIKO DOES CANCER (2020).

@kait_zilla Proud of you, Kait! And can't wait to see what you do next :)

[nadia siu van @nsvan]

@kait_zilla Woah that looks fantastic! Let me know when your bakery opens 😜

[Alex 🌚 @alexmuench]

Designers who don’t justify their decisions can be dangerous. Especially in higher roles. You’re a role model for juniors and others. They look up to you. Your words have so much weight.

Your experience and “knowing” what to decide doesn’t mean you are free from explaining it.

When you miss something, but still don't want it back. Grief is a funny thing.

Stunning image of the protest in #HongKong today (just posted on @AppleDaily_HK's Instagram account.) Many we spoke to said it was the first time they joined a protest & felt a proposed extradition law would so fundamentally alter the city's freedoms that they couldn't sit back.

@kait_zilla @UbisoftToronto Amazing!!! Congrats Kait! ❤

[nadia siu van @nsvan]

Can't explain in words how much @lindsaymwong's The Woo-Woo resonates. From exposing the "unseen ghost enemy" that is intergenerational trauma and grief, to the collective stoicism and stigma that bars any reconciliation of the past. A memorable read.

[Sarah Drasner @sarah_edo]

I have a joke:

Why was Sarah frustrated about the debate at work about whether to use SVGs?

Because the debate had no resolution
