I went to Chadstone shopping centre for the first time in years and was met with “HI LADIES” more times than I could count. I am not a lady. I’m non-binary. But I couldn’t find the strength or the words to say so and left feeling small. Any ideas about what I could have said?

In saying nothing, I’m now just holding heartache every other gender-diverse person who goes to a shopping centre anywhere. Maybe I’m hoping that if you work in retail or hospo and see this, it could be a gentle nudge to educate yourself and those around you 💭💗

(Also teachers too - I hear so much alienating language in schools and a small culture shift here would literally be a life-saver)

This is a shocking lack of sensitivity, and of basic understanding around a key group in the debate around the voice to parliament. Enough of the shallow, thoughtless takes on blak politics, especially from those who are paid well to get their heads around this stuff

OK - a shot at illiteracy was a smart arse slur. I apologise. Blak is a trade mark for a passionate fringe group who do not accept the legitimacy of the Commonwealth of Australia. They do not represent majority First Nations opinion. Ask Noel Pearson or Marcia Langton.

School is back, and we needed a meme for it 😉 We hope you have had a great first few days catching up with mates after the holidays, and we will be seeing you in schools this week!
An edited meme of Gru from the film “Despicable Me” showing him going through a presentation with posters. The first shows Gru excited and the poster reads “Seeing your mates 5 times a week”, the second image is also Gru excited and the poster reads “Getting a new locker”, the third image shows Gru excited and the poster reads “Getting up early again”, and the final image shows Gru looking back disheartened

Insightful read on why social media companies’ approaches to content moderation, including @Twitter, don't address how harassment spreads online—and how it imperils those targeted. @annecollier @podesta_lesley 1/ – at Brookline, MA

Anyone else had that moment at a funeral when they crack into Psalm 23?: "Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death..." And it takes every fibre of your being not to finish the line: "I take a look at my life and realise there's not much left"

Twitter's Trust and Safety Council was a group of volunteers who over many years gave up their time when consulted by Twitter staff to offer advice on a wide range of online harms and safety issues. At no point was it a governing body or decision making.

My team are running job interviews and I just heard an acoustic guitar sing-along followed by rapturous applause spilling out from the interview room. I love our workplace so much 💗😅✨

It’s #TransAwarenessWeek, so we’re looking at how we can be more inclusive of gender diversity at school 💙💖🤍 Here are 4 simple tips put together by QLD high school student Reef with help from our Co-Founder Lucy Thomas OAM.

1. Ask for pronouns. This will help you to understand the other person and get along with them better.

2. Don’t be a bystander. If someone is getting picked on because of their gender identity, then stand up and be a friend to help them stop the bullying.

As hate speech surges and the future of the platform seems to be in the balance, the people who helped advise Twitter on user safety say they don’t know what lies ahead.

✨ JOB OPPORTUNITY ✨ Of all the roles I've had at @projectrockit, being a Program Presenter was my favourite, hands down. I even made this meme about it. Well, we are now recruiting for 2023, please help us by spreading the word... To apply: bit.ly/3DRDGTi
A meme showing four captioned photos: 1) Brene Brown doing a Ted talk with the caption "what my parents think I do." 2) Beyonce performing to an adoring audience with the caption "what teachers think I do." 3) A stock photo of people holding hands in group discussion captioned "what my friends think I do." 4) A screenshot of a message that says "hey guys, today with PROJECT ROCKIT was the best day I've ever had at school. Thank you for changing my life for the better." This has the caption "what I actually do."
