@engineering_bae Wow that's offensive, sexist and deeply racist. Sorry you had to hear that. No doubt they'll have a whole segment on uNcoNciOuS bIaS 😐

@volodarik Can you share one that is women led?

With Twitter's change in ownership last week, I'm probably in the clear to talk about the most unethical thing I was asked to build while working at Twitter.

Rinehart was 30 years old and working with her father when he made the comments about “doping their water”…she was no child.

[Emily Finch @DrEmilyFinch]

Ok folks. It’s time we talked about eels.

I’m a geologist but I recently learnt about eels and… wow.

Since then, I’ve been greeting strangers with ‘DO YOU KNOW ABOUT EELS?!’

Well, consider yourself a stranger in my path.

Strap in. It’s a 🧵

Just observed my girlfriend browse and shop online. Your e-commerce attribution report absolutely can not account for what just happened.

I will be reminding people for the rest of my life that Serena already broke the real grand slam record (Steffi Graff’s 22) and that Margaret Court’s 11 Aussie Opens from the 60s when players from the rest of the world just didn’t travel to Australia do not count

[Charlotte Clymer 🇺🇦 @cmclymer]

Friendly reminder that Margaret Court supported Apartheid in South Africa.

That, alone, should be more than enough for you fools to cut her off from the tennis world completely.

@shailjas Hang in there. I look forward to seeing you come out of this running strong x

@phoodiemonk Loved the outcome @phoodiemonk and @rtCamp I've received a ton of awesome feedback for the new website!

It's 2022. If your team or managers are still referring to equitable and diverse hiring as "taking longer" or "not finding the right people", then it's time to be concerned. 🚩🚩🚩

Them: Can you change the text of this button?

Me: Sure it'll just take a couple minutes

Them: Actually, can you A/B test the changes? We want to be data-driven.

Me: I'll need a data analyst, 2 vendor integrations, 2 sprints, and about 500% more visitors than we have today

It saddens me every time I hear of a PMM leaving their job due to burnout, even more so when they are junior in their career and now completely disillusioned, turned off by the role.

As Product Marketers navigate their next role, here’s my list of red flags in interviews: 🚩🚩🚩

You didn’t grow up in a “more innocent time,” you were just a child with limited access to information
