sucks how I can’t even enjoy my run because some dude is just following me everywhere.

I do feel like this conversation around blood clot risk and the AZ jab doesn't sufficiently register quite how many women are on contraceptive pills with v high blood clot risk already

As a nonbinary person, I find the term “non-men” to be better for me than “women and nonbinary people.” I only use it when I can’t be more specific. (This isn’t a monolithic statement for all nonbinary people.)

For the first time in my career I’m the only white male on my team of over 10 people and it’s beautiful 🎉✨

While I’m sure he’d be flattered, I reckon Turing would rather see the Government ban conversion therapy, the (currently legal) form of LGBT torture that he was subjected to before he died in 1954

A fun fact- the ASL for 'transgender' is in a similar handshape and motion as ASL for 'beautiful' but signed over heart. So remember this, #TransIsBeautiful ! Have a great #TransDayOfVisibility you all. 🤟

All I’m saying is that when we go back to in-person conferences, some of y’all managers of women I know that have fucked them over during the pandemic are going to end up in some *really* uncomfortable, in-person conversations with me.

PLEASE stop using Stallmans Autism as either an excuse or a reason for his shitty behaviour. It's so horrible for me to see.

Really cool that the FSF has decided the past contributions of a dinosaur who's spent literal years openly abusing women without repercussions outweigh the potential contributions of all the women they just alienated by letting that man back into a position of power

You ever think about how a woman will respond to unwanted advances by inventing a fictional man as a partner because other men are more likely to respect a fictitious man’s boundaries than the woman’s?

Cher (@cherthedev)Sat, 20 Mar 2021 13:11 GMT

I regret defaulting to “I’m married” when trying to stop unwanted engagement from a man. Subconsciously, I was appealing to the patriarchy. I should have just said stop. That also should be enough.

you could think of it as a way of calling all asian people yellow which, obviously, isnt the case. its also just ineffective if you want to spread awareness about the current asian hate crimes going on.

no - no i don't want to talk about pronouns or gender or surgery - none of this is fun for me - i wish i didn't have to do this - i honestly hate it all - asking a transgender queer to talk about gender is like asking a diabetic to talk about needles its not fun for us

G'day! If someone uses they/them pronouns, maybe don't include them in lists of international women, eh?

Men from outside tech saying "this happens in all fields"...that isn't the flex you think it is.

Improving diversity is not just about recruiting diverse teammebers to join your company. It's also about recruiting folks who can be allies and supporters for the marginalized teammebers.

Let's talk about how white tech bros use their platforms to perpetuate harm and then distance themselves from it. Here's the basic formula:

Love to read our house buying contract (@TheLawSociety) and see that the buyer and seller are referred to throughout as he/him/his 🙃🙃🙃 They/them/theirs is not only gender neutral, but also accommodates multiple buyers/sellers better. Change it please? 🙏🏼

Carol 🌻 (@CarolSaysThings)Mon, 01 Mar 2021 11:29 GMT

So let me see if I've got this right. We belittle and berate women for not having kids, but professionally, financially, and socially punish women who do have them?

Amazon has hit a key milestone. There are now more women on the S-Team (Senior Leadership team) than there are Jeffs.

Kayla Cottingham 🦭 (@peculiaritea)Fri, 19 Feb 2021 01:39 GMT

It hurts to see multiple role models in the tech industry get pushed out or leave companies sooner than they wanted to for stupid reasons. Don’t even get me started on how we all know how difficult it is to find women in senior (or higher) engineering/leadership roles.

Want to reinforce inclusive naming in your org? If you are in a meeting and hear terms that aren’t correct, politely pause the meeting, suggest a better term and resume the meeting. Do this every time. Them: So this Kubernetes master node… You: Do you mean control plane node?

Last week I shared with my mom that I identify as non-binary and I use they/them pronouns. My mom asked if I had any articles for her to share to learn ways she can support me. She mentioned to extend her grace as she learns more about my identity.

Shoutout to all of the people sending emails asking women to do things for international women’s month activities when we don’t hear a peep from them the other 11 months.

I'm not a boss babe. I'm not a girl boss. I'm not a "She"EO. I'm not a mom-preneur. I'm the CEO and co-founder of a successful, fast-growing SaaS company and have the honor of leading an incredible team of talented humans. ...And I am a woman.

Women in tech are literally so easy to please. Give us fancy mechanical keyboards and fundamental human rights. That's only two things.

I caught up on #StarTrekDiscovery S3 in the last week and I just adore how they've turned Engineering into a big queer family with the two gay dads proud of their non-binary genius child, and the lesbian aunt who keeps popping round to give one-liners.
