I didn't think anyone would read this. I certainly wasn't expecting it to resonate so much. A massive thank you to everyone who has shared their experiences ❤ We all deserve better.

Research what happened to Argentina's Black population which at one point was 35% of the country's population.

Can we once and for all dispense with this tedious "But he always took the bins out and said hello" commentary, as if there was a contradiction here that needed explaining. Violent men ARE "nice guys". They're nice to everyone but the women they abuse. That's the whole point.

Par for the course isn’t it? Of course the person directly impacted isn’t centred. In any decent World she would be invited to speak first, instead she’s silenced while people around her bray and cheer.

I stopped engaging in the design discourse on here for no other reason than because it's super fucking boring. It's the same surface level "blah blah blahs". "Your portfolio is blah blah blah" "AI is going to take blah blah blah" "Design as a craft is blah blah blah"

“It’s come to mean something else” from Vine there. No it hasn’t, it’s just been hijacked by thicko’s and patronising old white men.

Today is as good a day as any to test that site you’re working on with a keyboard. Can you fully access all of the interactive elements without a mouse? Can you see which element is selected as you move through each page?

“Stop the Boats” is just the UK’s version of “Build The Wall” isn’t it?

It’s always the victims of racism that are expected to “rise above it” - usually by people who don’t know what it feels like.

PD's @tomskitomski writes in praise of Tell Us Once and the miracle of its continued existence

Written by a very close friend, this makes me both smile and blub. A beautiful, subtle and powerful essay about love, respect and social exclusion 💔

Can everyone please stop adding their Mastodon usernames to their Twitter names? It’s really frustrating for screen reader users. Hearing them being read out loud when scrolling down my timeline isn’t fun. Add it to your bio or make a pinned tweet instead.

I am available for new work shortly, so if anyone is in need of a content contractor give me a shout 🙂

So proud to be partnering with the @NHS_RHO on this incredibly important work. Please share far and wide, the more people that are aware of what we're doing, the better!

Not going to lie, this brings back trauma. When my family first received a notice to be deported back to Cyprus, my mum would hide my brother and me at family friends' houses in fear that the UK border agency would come knocking on our door. Your dream was my nightmare.

At @PublicDigitalHQ we're working with the @NHS_RHO to improve the care that people with #sicklecelldisease receive when they are experiencing an acute painful episode. This post explains what we're doing and why: https://t.co/0RRipH0syb (1/3)

Content design hive mind: I’m looking for some compelling and up-to-date stats on the return on investment for content design. It’s been a while since I had to pull anything like that together, so everything I have is a little dated. RTs appreciated. #ContentDesign

Today we've announced @PublicDigitalHQ has been awarded our 'digital discovery' research commission to improve emergency care & treatment pathways for NHS sickle cell patients read more below⬇️.

I once stared at a piece of code for 15 minutes trying to figure out what "par" meant. Eventually I realized it was "parent". Someone saved 50ms by not typing "ent". The savings was paid for by 15 mins of frustration. Don't abbreviate. Thinking is more expensive than typing.
