    Been thinking about the power that comes from women helping women. Many opportunities I've had this year have come from women looking specifically to elevate other female voices or recommending me for things they had to pass on. We're a force when we lift each other up.

    I think the Notifications feature has probably done more to make people hate web browsing more than any other. Geolocation is a close second.

    Female software engineers—if you’re planning a trip to Tokyo, please reach out. There are VERY few female software engineers in Tokyo and I would love to connect you with the scene to either meet and inspire women here or give a tech talk. Please share.

    The people asking if a 9 year old kid can even know that he is gay should be asking how the other 9 year olds already know to bully him for coming out.

    Stockholders have an incentive to drive wages down. Landlords have an incentive to drive rent up. These two groups own basically everything, and control most of our society and politics. But yes, immigrants are to blame.

    These actions (denying passports, stripping citizenship, rendering ppl stateless) are what you see in countries notorious for perpetrating abuses against their own people, especially religious and ethnic minorities. Can it happen here? It can and is.

    The Trump administration is accusing hundreds, and possibly thousands, of Hispanics along the border of using fraudulent birth certificates since they were babies, and it is undertaking a widespread crackdown on their citizenship.

    HEY. Web people. Don't fucking do this. A title should never be required for a US company, and emails with plus-signs are 100% RFC compliant and valid (and recommended when emailing random companies you don't trust)

    To all the people who said "I wouldn't have to, I'm a citizen" when asked if they thought they could prove their citizenship.

    In some cases, passport applicants with official U.S. birth certificates are being jailed in immigration detention centers and entered into deportation proceedings.

    The Trump administration is refusing the recognize the citizenship of Hispanics born in Texas. This is simply astonishing (and entirely unconstitutional).

    This is depraved. The US government is deporting citizens and soldiers alike. Don't you ever believe the lie that it's only about "illegal immigration."

    Child abuse. “Conversion therapy” is child abuse. There are not two sides to this question and these ads - and the practices they promote - should be illegal everywhere. Full stop.

    Holy hell. Facebook has reportedly been targeting users it identified as LGBTQ with gay conversion therapy advertisements.

    Since we’re all mentioning how a certain reporter has a habit of stumbling across people uttering marvelously convenient quotes that prove the point of whatever she’s writing, right when she happens to be there, I’ll just remind everyone of this 100% believable moment.
