Once again my #coop is hiring: app.beapplied.com/apply/bx6k4s

We do open data stuff for public good. This role in particular is focussed on beneficial ownership data analysis and standards development, but internally there's a lot of flexibility about what you work on and we have a variety of ongoing projects. It's particularly fun to do transparency and anti-corruption stuff though.

We have flat pay, are all remote, mostly UK-based, mostly part time, extremely flexi, and always looking for new ways to improve our wellbeing.

There's a birdsite thread with more info here: twitter.com/opendatacoop/statu (which I might recreate on here later).

Speaking ill of the dead on the other hand, that I can do. Parliament has lost a god-bothering, anti-abortion, gay-hating, Brexiteering, capital punishment-lover.

Remember than when the media spends the next couple of weeks fawning over his animal rights work.

my brother is travelling 1400 km to deliver me a birthday present, and there is no way i can stop him.

Plurality Shout-Out that We Hope Helps 

Anyways, shoutout to the systems who feel isolated or uncommon even if there are people who seem to use your words/terms and think you're more common than that, or feel like whatever phenomenon you're going through just gets passed over too often.

Regardless of the reality that's a lot to be going through and it probably sounds ridiculous to be hearing you aren't alone, but we promise you'll find someone& who gets it one day.
