We join the world in remembering renowned conservationist Jane Goodall. Along with her passion for chimpanzees & the environment, Jane was also a supporter of polio eradication. In 2010, Jane joined Rotary's "This Close" #EndPolio campaign. Our thoughts are with all who knew her.

I never really understood the obsession with Design Thinking. The implication that strategic design is something that can be taught to accountants during a 4-hour workshop (or even a 2-day workshop) is ridiculous. Design, at its core, should be about problem solving, and that takes expertise.

In the field of UX, I am a well-known pessimist. But only because everyone else was doing it wrong for the past 20 years. The end of the ZIRP age devastated the industry, but it also flushed out two generations of grifters. The people who know what they are doing are already seizing the moment.

As a #ux designer, I find myself struggling with pure lift-and-shift projects. I always want to make improvements, and the developers push back that they've built exactly what's already there. 😆

just saw a group of masked men stuffing masked ICE agents into an unmarked car, who were saying "we're ICE we're ICE!" but the abductors shouted to the crowd "no we're ICE!" no one knew who was ICE, so no one in the crowd said anything.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

KNOW YOUR
RIGHTS
IN CASE OF ICE:
CONOCE TUS DERECHOS
EN CASO DE ENCUENTRO CON ICE:DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR.
ICE cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge.
Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door.
NO ABRAS TU PUERTA.
ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizándola debajo de la puerta.ASK THEM
TO LEAVE.
If ICE doesn't have a warrant, tell them you do not consent for them to enter your home and ask them to leave. At work, ICE cannot enter employee-only areas without permission.
2
PÍDALES QUE SE VAYAN.
Si ICE no tiene una orden judicial, diles que no das tu consentimiento para que entren a tu casa y pídeles que se vayan. En el trabajo, ICE no puede ingresar a áreas exclusivas para empleados sin permiso.REMAIN SILENT.
You have the right to remain silent.
If the agents ask you questions, tell them,
"I wish to remain silent."
PERMANECE EN SILENCIO.
Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio.
Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles:
"Deseo permanecer en silencio".

To all those saying "shouldn't we root out government inefficiency? What's wrong with DOGE?" a quick background on Constitutional law and why the WAY it is being violated exposes the true motives of the criminals:

Table read tonight for Applause Community Theatre’s upcoming production of “Done to Death” by Fred Carmichael. Anyone know where I can find long form audio of a transatlantic accent to study?
