'Gallop reached out to @LinkedIn with three simple product design solutions that could be implemented quickly to reduce harassment and abuse of women before it occurs on LinkedIn.' @kfiore @FastCompany

'Many of the comments were filled with derision, marginalization and even outright hate directed at the female subject. Comments from professional men whose pictures, names and places of work were visible for everyone to see.' @kfiore @FastCompany

'Men who felt so comfortable with their misogyny that they were empowered to share it on a platform for professionals designed to help us advance our networks and careers.' @kfiore @FastCompany @LinkedIn

'I continue to use @LinkedIn but hesitate before reading comments because of what I expect to find. The proliferation of harassing comments has resulted in my changing my behavior, removing myself from the conversation entirely.' @kfiore @FastCompany fastcompany.com/90560407/this-…
'@LinkedIn, pl quantify the pervasiveness of harassment of women on your platform. Making the data public will show women you're serious about stopping harassment, so serious you provide the transparency we need to understand how bad the problem really is' fastcompany.com/90560407/this-…
'We need a global professional network designed to facilitate intersectional productivity and success, that focuses on community-building, and where bias is not tolerated.' @kfiore @FastCompany @LinkedIn fastcompany.com/90560407/this-…

'Advertisers on @LinkedIn, if your customers are seeing misogynistic comments, are being propositioned, or having their successes publicly marginalized, is this the right environment for your message?' @kfiore @FastCompany fastcompany.com/90560407/this-…

'The only way real change will happen is when there is an eight-figure problem when the agencies are on the verge of losing business, or when clients are willing to fire agencies for failing to diversify their workforce.' Anonymous to @seb_joseph @Digiday digiday.com/media/real-cha…
I've said for years the only thing that will make holding companies/agencies embrace diversity is total fucking disaster. 'One creative strategist has decided to sue an agency network for racial discrimination and wants others to do the same.' @Digiday digiday.com/media/real-cha…
Yup. 'I am not taking a class action lawsuit against anyone agency in particular, but rather a group of agencies. We’ve heard generations of “we can do better” talk” and nothing changes.' Anonymous to @seb_joseph @Digiday digiday.com/media/real-cha… #BlackLivesMatter #ChangeTheRatio

.@sarahkendzior called it back in 2015. 'Every country that becomes a dictatorship started with a chorus of people saying, "It can't happen here." It can happen anywhere.' @AnandWrites the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
'It's bizarre to me people critique "alarmism" without defining it. If you describe a threat & give evidence to support why you believe there is a threat, you are not an alarmist in a pejorative sense. You are a realist sounding the alarm.' @sarahkendzior the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
'I think the fact that I got every major thing right is less interesting than the question of why all the people who got nearly everything wrong still have jobs.' @sarahkendzior @anandwrites the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…

"Too many companies have this misguided thought that hiring disabled people is fundamentally charitable. You're doing it out of the kindness of your heart. That's absolute fucking bollocks." I talk to @Chad_Sowash @joelcheesman HR's Most Dangerous Podcast podcasts.apple.com/jo/podcast/cin…
"Every company should be falling over themselves to hire disabled people, because that is how you give yourselves a competitive business advantage." I talk to @chad_sowash @joelcheesman in Part 2 of my HR's Most Dangerous Podcast interview: podcasts.apple.com/jo/podcast/cin… #Diversity
"Disabled people are some of the most ingenious, brilliant and creative people you'll ever hire, because, as @elizejackson puts it, "We have to hack life every single day."I talk to @chad_sowash @joelcheesman Part 2 HR's Most Dangerous Podcast interview: podcasts.apple.com/jo/podcast/cin…

'I think everyone should watch @SocialDilemma_ But then try this: watch it from the point of view of a person of color. We are barely visible.' @rainakumra The Social Dilemma's Blind Spot @techonomy techonomy.com/2020/09/the-so… #TheSocialDilemma #DiversityAndInclusion #changetheratio
'While so much has been done to increase representation in film (with @netflix & @HBO leading the charge) it still baffles me that this documentary crossed the finish line with such an obvious level of homogeneity.' @rainakumra @techonomy techonomy.com/2020/09/the-so… #TheSocialDilemma
'There’s no lack of POC who cld have participated & spoken passionately on this topic. To make matters inexcusably worse, there were several quotations featured as interstitials, each of which was from a white man' @rainakumra @techonomy techonomy.com/2020/09/the-so… #TheSocialDilemma

'There's a cohort of awesome women building modern #sextech brands, like @DipseaStories @unboundbabes @DameProducts. And there's so much more room for product and brand innovation in this category. It makes me so excited!' @lucymort_ on @womenofsextech sunroom.substack.com/p/onlyfans-and…
'Tech has a way of making anything sexy. But ironically, sex work has remained largely untouched by VC's, brand wizards & Silicon Valley product tinkerers. In the last few years #sextech ventures have been focused on hardware, education & media' @lucymort_ sunroom.substack.com/p/onlyfans-and…
'Social #sextech — camming, fan sites, etc — are yet to receive the algorithmic finesse, UX attention + UI love that pushed dating & social apps to wide adoption. For a space that attracts traffic in the hundreds of millions, this astonishes me' @lucymort_ sunroom.substack.com/p/onlyfans-and…

'There are signs of resilience & innovation — vibrancy in unusual places and a reimagining of community, resources & opportunity. And a distinct sense of resolve: Our landscape was profoundly altered. But we remain. We will endure.' @corinaknoll nytimes.com/2020/09/23/nyr… #allinnyc
'This is a moment of adaptation and improvisation. When people pool what they have to create something new. When they take unfamiliar steps away from what was to what can work now.' @corinaknoll @nytimes nytimes.com/2020/09/23/nyr… #allinnyc #pandemicpositivity
