100% of the most awkward client calls I've been on were ones with old white people assessing the diversity of stock photos.

I’m confused. Why is this a bad thing? Showcasing minorities as successful? As a brown person, I always love seeing Asians featured in more aspirational settings.

was on a conference call with a midwestern client choosing image selects from a photo shoot, from which they of course wanted diversity among the images we chose. When we got to one particular image, she (the client) said (in a very thick midwestern accent): "Well that person could be white OR Eye-talian"
Maybe they don't have as many of us Eye-talians out there as I thought... 😂

What does that even mean??

Not sure if this is the right bowl but hoping to get some insight. I have a lot of student debt, and am considering refinancing with First Republic bank to get a (marginally) lower interest rate. However, their version of refinancing student loans has changed in the last couple years so now they offer you a personal line of credit. Is it a bad idea to refinance with a line of credit vs a regular student loan refinancing?

I’m sober curious. I’m also about to help a new non-alcoholic spirit company with their launch.
I have a question for people in recovery. If a brand were to contend that sobriety is a spectrum, or allow for that to a least be part of the conversation, how does that make you feel? Are other brands doing a good job of being inclusive of people who are truly sober?
(I get that NA drinks / spirits can be triggering for people in recovery)
Thank you.
