PhD @USCAnnenberg. Get to think about and make wonderful stuff (sometimes immersive, sometimes transmedia, always rhetoric). Lucky duck.

This makes my occupational therapy-loving heart so happy, and I hope this message spreads far and wide. So grateful to the users/algorithm that put this on my feed today (@TawasiSoce, @Bibliogato, and @DaveMetzger in particular!).

Sure, this is particularly relevant for people who are neurodivergent, chronically ill, or have other impairment/mental health obstacles, and those integrated in their lives. But it's also important for anyone living through this pandemic. 2/3.

"Rest is not a reward. Rest is a need. Rest is a right. Rest is responsible." Just one of so many life-changing pearls of wisdom here on ethics, adaptivity, ability, and how we see ourselves. more importantly, how we COULD see ourselves. As worthy. 1/3.

Hits home today. I'm grateful and relieved for all those who are able to feel safer now. Still. many can't, so just sending a little word of encouragement to extend kindness, consideration, and care to help protect those who need it.

Today's delightful eggcorn-ish typo: "learning curb." Particularly apt given I was describing the experience of having to figure out insurance—definitely feeling more like a curb than a curve. ;).

Also struck by how anonymity doesn't seem to be intrinsically part of the problem; rather, its value in allowing people to be open and vulnerable seems to far outstrip its ability to let people be mean without consequence. Contrary to what I'd have predicted, most likely!.

Heartened by this article a dear friend sent: But I'll need to give more thought to what lessons we can apply more broadly to experience/platform/game designs. As a start: I'm struck by how part of the answer is limiting public visibility of the dialogue.

To clarify, taking absolutely no credit for this particular contribution! In fact, much of what the show was doing, why it mattered, wasn't clear to me at the time. That's why it's so striking to look back now and realize how lucky I was, how it was even more special than I knew.

My heart swells H/T @gnawaihtnyc It can feel impossible to do justice to the most complex & important parts of life—stakes are high, "getting it right" often ambiguous. But it means a lot to read this and feel part of something that at least did some good.

Not sure whether to be proud or disheartened at how many words in my dissertation title merit the red squiggly judgment lines on, for example, LinkedIn. I swear I didn't just make this stuff up! Well, most of it, anyway.
