New year year, exciting news, y’all! In November I started a new gig at Electronic Arts to help with the Fan Growth Design System and infrastructure. Special thanks to @kathryng.bsky.social for the interview prep, and the countless number of people in my network for the support.
If anyone wants to know why it took me so long or why my account is still in place on Twitter, it's because I don't feel comfy going into bubbles and not witnessing the shifts right now. I also don't want my name/account to get leveraged in my absence. These "news platforms" got us to this moment.
Tips for saving posts with 📌 until Bluesky supports bookmarks:
If you care about accessibility and want to not forget using alt text in your images, there's a setting for that
So we chose the harder path forward AGAIN… Only this time, the most vulnerable won’t be the only ones to suffer under the yoke of white supremacy… Maybe THIS time the Coalition of the Wounded will decide, once and for all, that we get there TOGETHER or not at all 🫶🏾
Are you looking for starter packs? @danawoodman.com is curating a sweet megathread for you!
hey nerds, i've put together a megathread of over 40 starter packs for tech/software/data/platform/ai/hardware/frontend/design/etc topics (plus more shared by others) if your bsky feed sucks, check some of these tasty lists out (oh, and follow me too, you little stinker)
(giggles in elder) Or… some of us know the value of keeping abreast of multiple social platforms? 🙃
From where I'm sitting, it looks like Bluesky is exploding in adoption, and "X" is now the new Facebook, i.e. boring place where old people keep posting on because they don't bother learning new things. I'm proud for the Bluesky team
Welcome new followers! Here’s some autumn imagery for you.
“We’re told the future of tech is coming, and it is fixed. […] And if we don’t want to be erased by it, we in design systems must address ourselves now to building the mechanisms and rules of whatever automated systems will emerge for creating products. “ Great read by @jovo.design
Design systems practitioners are being presented two choices for the future. One: design the mechanisms and rules for rising automated systems. The other: be erased by those systems. Queer theory can help broaden our perspective and imagine alternative futures. www.jovo.design/writing/quee...

The team didn’t take it seriously in April and May. Y’all. The platform that prioritizes the safety of the marginalized and leads with accessibility wins. Every. Time.
I've been here two weeks and even some black users that were more engaged last week have dropped off in posting this week. Any space irl or online that is too white reveals itself to be hostile to POC. The bsky team needs to take this seriously
