#Diversityfail
its a #Diversityfail but its also just an imagination fail and an empathy fail ... I thought at the time that a smart govt would have asked Angela Rayner and Jess Phillips for example to join an advisory team to bring in some perspectives they obviously lacked.

"The Government should have been alive enough to be thinking about the people who were having a really difficult time - and how to make policies that work for them. That was a clear failure throughout" @jillongovt.bsky.social on Channel 4. I agree - esp on #DiversityFail in policy teams.

Which reminds me - similar #diversityfail at the CPCA’s Local Growth Report launch in Cambridge. (I wrote about the draft plan here).
NEW BLOGPOST: Cambs & Peterborough local growth plan has two concert halls - one for each larger city. cambridgetownowl.com/2025/10/15/c... Here were the proposed sites in the mid-1960s.

Yeah really. I've got a whole bunch of links from back in the "toxic Twitter" discussions back in 2014ish, including perspectives from you and @karnythia.bsky.social and Suey Park in the comments in www.talesfromthe.net/jon/?p=687#c... ... they all hold up remarkably well.

I mean, I love hashtags -- here's a 2010 talk I gave about them (with a screenshot of a tweet from Shireen!). www.talesfromthe.net/jon/?p=687

But in this case I was agreeing with @sotreu.bsky.social's point that hashtags *won't* fundamentally help with the anti-Blackness here.

Great point by @Squidfan on hashtags and intersectionality. "Cognitive evolution and revolution" discusses this (although not particularly from a science perspetive). The comments have examples over the years. #OutToInnovate
