      Life is balance. It’s okay to have fun once in a while, particularly because this will recharge your batteries and make it easier to give back.

      4/6. If you have problems with corporations, or Facebook specifically, talk about that instead. It’s a worthwhile conversation. Don’t make a huge, ill-defined bus to throw everyone under, just to make yourself feel better for a second.

      5/6. I guarantee you there will be people looking at @shanselman’s tweet and reflecting on the value of design details, and fighting for them later in their own project. You could’ve included just the image, but you decided to shit on his observation, too.

      6/6. When I travelled last year, I saw the icon rotate and it genuinely made me think about how I see the world, and what I take for granted. Please be more empathetic and allow other people to connect with design in the ways you don’t.

      BTW I don’t know @shashashasha personally. I’m doing this thing where I’m taking one tweet out of context – but since tweets travel out of context… I want to get better at constructive applications of anger, and promoting candor. Call me out if I mess this up!

      Thank you for responding to my shitpost with a tweetstorm! We overwhelmingly agree that design matters, and that life is a balance. When I say corporate designer I'm referring to @notdetails's great thread, which resonated a lot with my past experiences:https://twitter.com/notdetails/status/940267058247254017 …

      sha added,

      I want to talk about bit about my path as a Corporate Designer. How I see myself and my role has often mirrored what the industry has told me is right, and that’s changed over time. 1/

      Personally I feel incredibly privileged, and feel that it's important for me to spend my time towards helping others in need. We can talk about the gaps in our [narrow web] design culture more, and how we celebrate details but ignore consequences, but I think it requires drinks.

      Ah, definitely. The context helps a lot, and the weird/unexpected dichotomy in that post is very (sadly) familiar to me. Conversations about meaning and impact are hard, but they absolutely need to happen.

      I think one of the hardest parts might be building the right amount of an on-ramp for others. One can, for example, very easily dismiss me as a bad feminist, but people who helped me most saw me as a feminist-in-progress instead.

      Now I see the process as reaching back to people earlier in the journey with the right scope of a challenge, while at the same time continuing to ask for bigger challenges myself.

      As way of explanation, my stark reaction to your tweet was largely owing to seeing it as shaming people into being better. I’m leaving it as an exercise for both of us to figure out whether this was an appropriate read completely out of context. :·)

          Also, thanks for making me think about and elucidate all of this – the severity of my ire and questionable tone decisions aside, it was helpful for me to put it all together.
