Adding your preferred pronouns to your email signature when your name is unambiguously in line with your gender (eg: John Smith, he/him) is just a way to show that you are liberal. Change my mind.

I am curious how other inclusion teachers are being utilized when the school is doing remote learning. I find that I am sitting in the zoom class and have very little opportunity to contribute. I am having discussions with my teachers on ways that I can better support them and the students when remote.

Is anyone wondering what life will really be like for all the new Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion executives that many companies are hiring and bragging about now? I wonder how much power they will actually have to effect change. I wonder how long the trend will last.

Advise on handling rates negotiations with BIPOC and non-male creators? I always want to accept first bid and get uncomfortable when my bosses push to undercut rates (especially now when money is tight), because there is a whole history of BIPOC and non-male people getting paid less. I’ve tried to push back but struggle to articulate this to them. (For the record, I’m POC female and my bosses are white males, and race/gender convos are already very difficult with them.)

Does BCW not allow conservatives to be employed at this company? I’m sitting through another meeting where we are highlighting amazing women and it is so politicized I am completely offended. AOC, Biden, Ilhan, Hilary... I mean at try to be inclusive when speaking of diversity. You can’t name a single female in the Conservative party throughout history?

My heart really goes out for the women in Pakistan, the amount of harassment they face on daily basis. I wonder why that is, is the root cause the extreme level of gender segregation.

I am looking for a 6th year program in equity or diversity Any information ?

Are there any diversity clubs/groups in B4/EY? Are they worth it in terms of meeting new people/networking/making friends?

Was at an event recently. Seems like advertising really only cares about diversity as it applies to white women. I think this industry wants to stay white.

What do you wish you knew before starting your career in Diversity & Inclusion?

Such a great discussion. I’ve just started a bowl for diversity in London specifically if anyone is interested - 9qo8f

Been on Coinbase for a while, wondering if it's worth the pain to go to another exchange for the additional coin diversity

Thanks for making this bowl all gender inclusive. The other bowl simply was outdated and lacked any kind of diversity whatsoever at all.

Hi everyone! I’d love to hear your thoughts on EEO surveys during the job application process. Is it more beneficial to self-disclose or refrain from disclosing race, gender, disability, etc?

Which method is more likely to get your application noticed? Any guidance would be helpful on my job hunt. Thank you.

How did you begin to implement equity and inclusion into your organization?

Thoughts on more aggressively paying down mortgage vs investing? I don’t have any real debt outside my mortgage & currently have 180k in my 401k, insurance policy & invest in a 529 for my daughter’s

Currently 25 years old.
Goals:
* Own a home in a HCOL
* 2 kids (eventually)
* Retire at 50 on $125k/year.

Envelope math:
* $125k/year would require an investment portfolio of ~$3M.
* Targeting a $2M home (split with partner)
* 2 kids - $1M to raise both (including college fund, split with partner)
* $500K buffer for unexpected expenses
* 33% tax

Therefore, 6.5-7M retirement savings needed. To hit this (assuming 6% return after inflation), I’d need to save ~$110k/year.

How does this sound?

What house plants are NOT toxic to cats? I swear every time I go to buy a new plant and look it up it says “toxic to pets”. I have a dumb cane which I know is toxic but didn’t realize when I bought it so now I just keep it in the laundry room away from my cat when I’m at work but that means no daytime sunlight. Would like suggestions on which plants I can buy that are safe to leave alone with my cat 😸

Hi fishes,

Today I got an email from TCS to complete an ibegin registration. Whenever I login, it is asking me to enter PAN details and mail ID. If I give, it is giving a warning that my account is already present in ibegin and telling me to login with another email ID. As if I remember, one of the consultancy, used my PAN to register in ibegin but I’m unable to login since it is registered by their mail ID and my PAN.

Hi Fishes please help

What has the radical left passed that infringes on your liberties?

“I tested very positively this morning, I tested positively toward negative, right? So no, I tested perfectly this morning. Meaning, meaning I tested negative, positive towards the negative."

Anyone here economically center-left and socially center-right? I hear all the time about ppl who describe themselves as “socially liberal and fiscally conservative” but not so much for the inverse. It seems like this is more common outside of the US, but for some reason there is no mainstream political movement or party with that ideology here in the US.

Trump wants to limit protests around the White House: where they can happen, what equipment they can use, and how quickly they can be permitted. Another conservative crybaby looking for a safe space.

Where's Mike Pence? Was he not in charge of praying COVID away?

My close friend works for the mayor of my mask mandate city. We are both libs. I think the mandate was once good, is silly now. She just blew up at me when I asked for data to support their position. All I got was “I’m tired let’s talk tomorrow.” I’m disappointed she could not engage and support her opinion.

Currently living abroad. My daughter just asked me if it's a good thing we don't live in America right now. I have no idea how to answer that question. Plan was to come home next Summer. Now not sure.
