This will no doubt be a huge marker in the sand in illustrating the role of boards in oversight, being compassionate & #goodgovernance I recall the early days of this being reported & the impact with lives lost to suicide due to the humiliation caused - so tragic

Man's inhumanity to man....
We’re doing Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo again, except both at once, and to random dads and barbers abducted off the streets of America for the crime of being Latino
“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

63 studies: women who assert their ideas, make direct requests, and advocate for themselves are liked less.

They're also less likely to get hired—and it hasn't improved over time.

When will we stop punishing women for violating outdated gender stereotypes?

Gender equality doesn’t just 'happen.'

Women’s rights must be fought for and protected.

Our responsibility is clear.

To lead by example and create a world where opportunities are fair for all.

Not just today, but every single day.

For 2,500 years, women have been fighting for their place in our democracies. Ahead of International Women's Day, we trace the slow path towards equality.

TL:DR

• Researchers ditching X for Bluesky.
• Feels like old Twitter, but safer.
• Better moderation, no spam, open data.
• Science feed is thriving.
• Growth risks bringing X/Twitter’s problems.
