Back when it was still going on, I would always leave an ORDCamp weekend in Chicago thinking about SV…”this is what we could have had. This could have been what we built.” The vibe and collaboration was so different. I’d take ORD any day, no contest.

I've been wanting more details on what happened at Texas A&M, and my ORDCamp peep @petersagal.bsky.social has been on it.
A professor at Texas A&M taught… something related to gender that offended a student, who secretly filmed herself objecting. That video is picked up by TX legislators, who demand her firing, and now the dean and dept head have been fired.

A&M Dean removed following student complaints over curriculum
The Department of Justice has also acknowledged the situation and said it would be investigating.

This is a list of some of the finest people I’ve ever had the privilege of knowing. The #ORDCamp community is insanely smart, kind, and quietly competent in ways that continually surprise me.

I am buoyed this morning by just the early planning for a forthcoming barcamp among the #ORDcamp community, in lieu of a formal ORDcamp ever coming back

I once participated in a social experiment that made a similar
point. At the opening of the ORDCamp conference, the 300 or so participants were told to start playing rock/paper/scissors with each other. The loser was told to root for the winner as they went on to the next match.

I've always loved the spirit in Chicago that is incredibly socially/community aware.
One of the coolest #ORDCamp sessions was on "guerilla gardening" where you'd make seed bombs (self-contained packets of seeds mixed with clay and compost) that you'd throw into empty lots and off the highway.

thank you Dawn 🙏 and hello again #ORDcamp friends, nice to see you here on Bsky dot com
Here are a bunch of smart, creative folks from one of the coolest communities I've ever been a part of.
(If you're an ORD Camper and don't see yourself on here, let me know! I'll add you.)

I looked forward to ORDCamp every year, and the friendships made there (or strengthened there) are some of my most treasured relationships. Special place. This is a great, diverse list of incredible people

I'm pretty sure I thanked you in person for that at ORDCamp or wootstock or someplace, but in case I didn't, thank you for writing that. It was the first thing of yours I read, and it has given me pause every time I've started to feel a twinge of entitlement. It changed the way I live my life.

One of the things that stood out to me about an event like ORDCamp was the huge amount of work organizers did to make attendees of every type feel safe. Consent and boundaries were taken 💯 seriously. There was accountability and repercussions. They didn’t just give lip service. ordcamp.com/conduct/

Aww! 💙 I don’t remember which ORDcamp this was,
but this is the happy face of someone who skipped two days of sleep to tell spicy coral jokes to strangers, learn lock picking, or get mildly injured winning at office sledding 🪸🗝️🛷
