Hi Folks. I'm finally leaving twitter. I will be filtering and saving my feed, and then deleting my twitter profile completely. I hope we meet again, in another place.

Salmon have returned to Still Creek in Vancouver!
🌊 Still Creek is an urban watercourse with a sensitive ecosystem. We encourage people and their pets to stay above the top of the bank when viewing, and to please not enter the creek.

Erica Cirino, @plasticpollutes Comms Manager says that companies should "help foster values that reduce wastefulness; for example, showing people how to properly care for their reusables, so folks do not feel compelled to repeatedly buy more." #Plastic

Thrilled that Smithsonian’s @Folkways gave me the opportunity to dig through their archives and put together a #LaborDay2023 playlist with some of my favorite labor songs, from Aunt Molly Jackson and Paul Robeson to Sturgill Simpson. Which side are you on? folkways.si.edu/fight-like-h…

The Executive Board of the DRS condemn, in the strongest possible terms, the recent treatment by Elsevier of the Editor-in-Chief and other Editors of Design Studies, the academic journal of the Design Research Society. Read more from the DRS here: designresearchsociety.org/ar…
I have no memory of the A-Frame home, which is the best of all of them. As designers, we should have more of these conversations about toys, the life it reflects, and the life it tries to project back on to us. nytimes.com/interactive/2023…
Day 3 of computer failures + frustrations. If anyone knows how to turn a desktop iMac w/hard drive failure into a simple monitor, pls DM. Apple has cheerfully told me that my 2.5 yr old + expensive computer is "ready to be recycled!" But why recycle if the monitor remains useful?
So many modernist designers represented by MillerKnoll espoused social ideals: democratic design(Eames), design for humanity(Bertoia), respect/awareness(Saarinen). I can't help but think they would be disappointed with their work being perceived as icons of wealth + privilege
CEO Andi Owen dressed down staffers who complained that they weren't receiving bonuses at the furniture company, telling them it was time to leave “pity city.”

Plastic polluting companies like @CocaColaCo, @PepsiCo have failed to achieve their own collection targets but continue to promote recycling.
•If you cannot collect enough of your waste then it cannot be recycled.
