I sincerely cannot understand why otherwise normal and thoughtful people/organizations continue to patronize X/Twitter. I literally quit my job as an exec at Twitter when it became clear Musk would take over the company, and the level of ineptitude and noxiousness today has dramatically exceeded what I thought would have been possible at the time.

With just a few days’ notice, Mozilla terminated my employment this month after leaving me hanging on leave without for several months. My discrimination case against them therefore enters a new phase after this wrongful termination.

I was unfortunately compelled to file a lawsuit against my current employer, Mozilla Corporation, for discrimination due to my cancer diagnosis. If you'd like to understand the details, you can read this write-up in GeekWire, which includes the full text of my legal complaint.
