Hey, Iβll add here that performance reviews for neurodivergent people can be outright traumatic. They need to stop.

And now with AI aiding in the construction and writing the reviews of our effectiveness, our βsuccessβ, now can we finally call B.S. on performance reviews?

"Moving toward liberation requires all of us to care β about where we are going, but also about each other. This means, revolutionize your friendships, have friends that are aligned with your vision of the world you want to live in.
This is spiritual work."

Hear the words of Stephanie Andrea Allen (NIP). Start (again) where we are. Literary movements. In person. Ground ourselves in the people we live with and around. & at 35:57 Eesha Pandit speaks to telling a story as a feminist practice. The whole session is great! #communityofwriters #feministpress

In a time when book bans, censorship, & attacks on women's voices are ramping up, one of the most powerful things we can do is amplify stories that matter. Letβs make sure stories by Women+ and BIPOC authors are not erased! Book list & sign-up link in bio. #communityofwriters

I see people deactivating various social media accounts, which I understand & respect, but Iβm done letting Bad Tech Brosβ’οΈ chase me out of my community spaces.
Maybe there are no more βgood places.β Maybe there are only good people doing their best to navigateβ& use for goodβproblematic spaces.

If you need some optimism in your reading world, I highly recommend giving this collection of essays/interviews a read. Weβve heard all the doom about our climate emergency. βWhat If We Get It Rightβ takes a moment to share a vision of the future if we do make changes. Itβs hope, for a change.
