This RIGHT here. One million times. When I met with Jack Dorsey about two years ago his whole pitch to me was algorithm algorithm algorithm. And I got the sense the whole point was being able to point at something and saying “Blame that, not me.”

First off, I am incredibly sorry for your loss. Secondly, I never said that anyone’s depression defines them. It is a thing that my mind does to me that I have to work at. Letting it define me is as dangerous as ignoring it.

If you’ll grant me five more minutes of your time, I’d encourage you to read another essay I wrote on…

Julie, I talked to you about this years ago when you so graciously invited me to speak at your annual gathering. You talked about reaching out to continue the conversation. I’m still open to doing that, and still waiting on the call.

It troubles me that rather than tell me I’m wrong about the AIGA, you slap my wrist for…

Thank you! Fixed.

Thank you! Fixed.

This is complicit bullshit and you know it.

From the FastCompany article, attributed to you: “Eventually, centralized shopping locations won’t be necessary, because there will be 100,000 Bodegas spread out, with one always 100 feet away from you.”

Did you say it?

Amazing feedback, James. See you next Tuesday.

Totally agree. But what we absolutely can’t do is repeal it and leave all these people without a homeland.

Would love to. Feel free to repost on the AIGA site. Or, even better, use it as the start of the AIGA’s own ethics guidelines, a process I’d be more than happy to be a part of.
