Happy pride month! 🏳️‍🌈

Pride is about not just persisting, but taking life back from the fringes of society, thriving in spite of adversity. It isn't vanity; It's solidarity and defiance.

Sometimes protest, sometimes celebration, however the political pendulum swings, we remain.

Trans people aren't deranged. What's deranged is when a country gets obsessed with a tiny percentage of the population that's different from them but poses no harm, and punches down with laws that limit their ability to live a full life and happy life.

The thing about letting people know your pronouns - it's not just about trans / non-binary. Have you ever worked with someone with a gender neutral name? Have you ever worked with someone with a name from another language you don't know?

Getting someone's pronouns right is just polite

I love my hallucinated husband. Yes, Apple Intelligence keeps insisting I have one when summarizing my wife’s messages. Apple says it’s working on a fix and designed its AI to avoid reinforcing stereotypes and biases. More in my newsletter: techthings.cmail20.com/t/d-e-sjrttn...

Hello Bluesky! I have made the jump from Threads, which admittedly felt quite barren for the 6/7 months I was using it. I am pleased to see more tech people on Bluesky from the Twitter days, who I missed on Threads 💙🤓
