One of the only welcome things about this current period in the U.S. is that the "this is not who WE are" stuff might finally be over.

DEIA please. The disabled community is already being attacked by outsiders, can we not be erased by insiders too? It's Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Accessibility.

Yep, agreed, which is why we've marked any company that abandons DEI principles as capitulating to the regime on our list.

It's very weird (and yet clearly effective) that maga keeps smearing DEI as "unconstitutional"

It may not be illegal, but for any corporation do to anything for their employees, it must be the only option otherwise it impacts their profits. DEI training cost money. If they aren’t required to spend it, they won’t.

lol gentle reminder that DEI is not illegal. Supporting marginalized groups is not illegal. Anyone reneging on support is making a CHOICE to do so.

I'm having a very annoying day (yes, it's because of booking), but watching my youngest son dance around the living room to Minutemen is helping

How terrifying is the protest in Portland? So much that it was the site of a wedding last night. 💜 congratulations to the happy couple! They had a heck of a dance party!
