Dropped off our ballots for our local election today. Voting matters, even when it's not a presidential election. Being engaged with your community and knowing your local issues has a huge impact. #Vote #VotingIsImportant #LocalBallotsMatter

@DrJenGunter Should Do List

Hmmm...this data doesn't look so great. Maybe more #diversity would help?

[Bobbie Riley @PeerReviewCrew]

Important report.

There comes a point where thanking moms for all that they do is not enough. Moms deserve paid leave and child care—basic help we can finally give them by passing the American Families Plan.

This sounds awesome for the environment.

@betterallies Assuming all AAPI peoples can speak the same language as other AAPI peoples that look similar, eg, asking a Japanese person what a Mandarin-speaking character on TV is saying.

[Better Allies® @BetterAllies]

I'm collecting language that is not inclusive/ disparages members of the #AAPI community. E.g.
"Open the kimono"
"Where are really from?"
"The Chinese virus"

What are other examples?

@techladyallison Me too!

@iamcontractr @SouthwestAir Yeah, spotted a few people that didn't have masks on properly. Takes less time to potty train kids than it does to teach adults to wear masks correctly apparently.

I wouldn't shut down a grassroots employee-led DEI initiative before it even had time to hold its first meeting.

Unlike Basecamp.

This would have been a great response to the person denying carbon dating that I ran into when I was in high school.

The good thing about Science is that it’s true, whether or not you believe in it.

A wonderful example of how to provide accommodations to someone based on their needs:

@DrMarinaHarris After vasectomy, people saying, "well, you can always adopt if you change your mind" as if we didn't think it through and made a rash decision.

People saying it's so selfish that we don't want kids as if it's not equally selfish of them to have CHOSEN to HAVE kids.

[Bobbie Riley @PeerReviewCrew]

@DrMarinaHarris "When are you having kids?" asked by a relative at my wedding. Can we get through the f*cking reception first?

Called to let family know about need job. Assumed we were announcing pregnancy.
