I've decided to take a break from my mental health and just completely focus on work this week.

As a gay woman, you tell me I can't have a 'political or societal conversation' and that sounds a lot like I can't talk about my wife at work. Bc being in a gay marriage is a f'ing political statement to people. Im angry.

Companies are part of the solution or part of the problem. If you "ban societal and political discussions" you're abdicating your responsibility towards your marginalised employees who don't have the privilege of ignoring these problems. @dhh @jasonfried - very disappointing.

Post details

"No more societal and political discussions at Basecamp." Tech is political, business is political, people are political. By aspiring to neutrality you'll inevitably allow systemic power to materialise unchecked. So disappointed in Basecamp today. twitter.com/venikunche/sta…

Twitter’s “main character”, as @zkat__ put it, is a real thing. But wow. This is one of the most dominating topics I’ve ever seen on my feed. 😳

I have been a software engineer for almost 10 years now and I think my only real principle is "please just solve the problems that actually exist" I see people who are much smarter and more experienced than me deviate from this and it almost always ends badly

yeah I fuckin bet it's stressful when marginalized employees speak up about external or internal shit that makes their lives hard or dangerous, if you're part of the power structure allowing those difficulties to continue. dick.

Look I think Caitlyn Jenner is a rightwing ball of slime but I'm still going to gender her correctly. Doing anything else makes it clear you see recognising trans people's genders as conditional privileges for good behaviour that you can revoke any time, and trans ppl notice that

Though you should not expect that giving some dollars will magically solve everything. Sometimes money isn’t what’s lacking, but time, team size, project management –. or simply differences in vision, expectations or similar. Listen to the needs of the project and act on that.

I’ve had a couple of wobbles recently and thought “maybe I should work full time somewhere” but tech recruitment and interview processes will probably always keep me freelance. I don’t think I could ever go through that rubbish again.
