Creator Spotlight: Questing Refuge

Lately, I’ve been binging the back catalog of videos from my internet friend Willow on their YouTube channel: Questing Refuge. Willow is an autistic transgender parent who explores being different and finding belonging as portrayed in popular media. I’ve previously shared their fantastic video on disabled representation in Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts. More recently, I’ve very much enjoy their videos on the portrayal of disability in the show Hawkeye, how neurodivergence is dismissed in popular media, and finding hope in the unknown in the miniseries Over the Garden Wall.

Navigating the maze

If you’ve ever been to a really good museum or botanical garden or an IKEA, they typically have a maze-like layout. Rather than a central hub with clear in-and-out spokes, they encourage you to wander and meander. They have small little side paths, sometimes unlabelled on the map, where you can often find surprises or hidden gems (metaphorical, not literal). Websites of days past were like this, too! Before blogs and UX-as-a-discipline and every-ecommerce-site-looks-like-a-Shopify-template, websites encouraged you to explore.

Resistance is your duty

My friend Evan recently wrote a very well documented article on how AI isn’t inevitable, it just feels that way because it’s constantly foist upon us. He lays out the many many ways that it is, to be blunt, objectively immoral and unethical to use these tools, regardless of “how good” you think they are. In it, he notes… Except in cases where your boss forces you to use “AI” or be fired, it is entirely possible to eschew the use of these tools today.

Stand for something

I’m so continually disappointed by how many people have absolutely no standards if it means being inconvenienced or “standing out” in any way. Yea, Elon sucks, but the Tesla is just suck a good car. Or… Yea, Twitter is a Nazi party, but I get more reach there. Or… Yea, AI is using all the drinking water and causing coal plants to reopen and taking peoples jobs, but I don’t have to write those reports anymore.
