.@LukasSchaufler I have a package of yours in Suite 802 in Dumbo. I’ll be here till 5:30 or so if you want to grab it. Otherwise I’ll put it back in the mail room.

@tremaine4ny Is there a place I can learn more about your platform and where you stand on the issues? I didn't see a consolidated place I could find that on your website.

BREAKING NEWS: I have just announced legislation to create a national database of police misconduct. This is the first of many steps I’m working on in the fight to end police brutality and systemic racism. I'd like to discuss those steps with you now: https://t.co/3vc56oPAXj

Let's be clear about what happened this week at the White House. The photo-op Trump wanted was not just of himself holding a Bible—he wanted footage of Americans who disagree with him being scattered, of violence pushed upon them. That's the photo-op he wanted.

Great advice for designers at any level. One of the most important things about design is the people you do it with (partners) and do it for (users.): https://t.co/egv5eLZp7l

Enlightening talk by @Padday. Though I think we can bring companies together, I agree we are not the center of the product universe. https://t.co/ELjQweEcIq

Can't echo this loud enough. Just because you are referencing a number doesn't mean it's objective.

Users don't hate change.

• Users hate when you take control from them.
• Users hate when your change shows no value for them.
• Users hate when they’ve invested in learning your design, only for you to disregard that investment.

Users don’t hate change.

It’s you, not them.
