a few pair of hands reaching out to grab from a stack of variety of stickers on a table.

I love the concept of manuals of me. I think for me, 1-2-1 is easier cuz everyone feels 'safe' to be more straightforward and open with me. It's more in bigger meetings in groups. I find it mentally draining to adjust my comms style or try to decipher what people are saying. π

i might have something! We've been working on a project for reporting an outbreak in ASC. I've spoken with a few local authorities (government public health teams) around their experiences of using our service. But it's very niche, so not sure if it'll be helpful. lemme know

We've become too 'work-fied' that we are forgetting that we are talking about people. humans.

I understand the sentiment of 'convincing' stakeholders about inclusion and accessibility with legal terms and consequences, but can't a girl just talk about inclusion and diversity of disabled folks as celebrating diversity and humanness of life.
why does everything have to be convincing someone

The best clapback of the week goes to the Mexican president suggesting that the North American continent be known as βAmΓ©rica Mexicanaβ because 'an 1814 founding document that preceded Mexicoβs constitution referred to it that way.'

It's terrifying that Trump Americans don't understand how tariffs work & how much harm it's going to cause THEM. And, the scariest of all, 'how many Americans will have the opportunity to hear it in its entirety'?
