To people saying all lives matter... How are you demonstrating this? Are you shopping at places you know pay fair wages? What are you doing to help people who are in need? What policies have you voted for that demonstrate equality for all? Who are you fighting for?

I have so much to say about this film that I can't articulate properly, but it should be watched. Its an experience of the windrush scandal and another reminder of British history that shouldn't be ignored. BLM is so important. #Windrush #WindrushDay youtu.be/An4vgjvMZWQ

Why is Mr, Miss, Mrs etc a thing? I always wonder why its mandatory on forms. I've always made it optional when I've built forms.

We spoke to Alicia & Kenneth, two rough sleepers given a roof over their heads at the start of #COVID19. They want the government to pay #Redbridge the money it promised. Agree? Then sign our petition➡️ orlo.uk/EhK60 #RedbridgeOwed45m Robert Jenrick Boris Johnson

I loved how many speakers at ContentbyDesign #ContentByDesign introduced themselves with their pronouns. Inclusivity seems to be a natural trait of content designers. I *love* it.

I’m interested to know what sort of non inclusive language & content people see around the most and would want to change? e.g only Female & Male options in forms, using words like blacklist, “see” here etc. Content and UX people I know you have some examples 👀

This week's Working In Content newsletter on addressing racism in design & content has some *amazing* resources in it. It's especially important in content that we are actively anti-racist. As we've seen this week, words really matter. Choose the right ones. ckarchive.com/b/gkunh5h88npx

63 studies: women who assert their ideas, make direct requests, and advocate for themselves are liked less. They're also less likely to get hired—and it hasn't improved over time. It's 2021. When will we stop punishing dominant women for violating outdated gender stereotypes?

Does anyone actually like getting marketing emails from companies just because they bought something from them one time? I’m genuinely interested if there’s actually a user want or need, because this user hates them with a passion 😆

While I’ve just been wasting time doomscrolling, my amazing, super talented friend Aditi Gupta has written her first, very timely, journal article

One of the best signs of design maturity in an organisation has got to be that people listen to and respect the accessibility team

BT made £1.3bn, gave £750m to shareholders and the CEO got £3.5m. We have members using foodbanks. Today BT announced £400m profit for 1/4 year. Tomorrow our members strike for the first time since 1987 and have been subjected to extreme intimidation. RT if you back them.

I've written a lot about behavioural manipulation and why it's a critical issue for markets. Today @citizensadvice has a new report that throws open the lid on the dodgy tactics firms are using, why they matter, and what we can do about it. 🧵
