Super easy to complain about services and features and conferences when you’re not one of people putting in the work.

My husband told me when he starts thinking about stuff that’s too heavy and depressing he goes “scarecrow mode” and I was like what’s that and he was like “I think about a scarecrow for a while and then I laugh”

Web 3.0 belongs to the community of the #Indieweb, not to the blockchain addicts who think that their way is the highway. If anybody wants to kill me for saying that, go right ahead, I’ll just rise, along with my fellows, once more. LOL

Type of engineering manager that spends 4 hours writing a job description because they want to be *absolutely* certain that the people who apply will be setup for success

Y2K was a real problem. We are able to joke about it today because people in positions of authority (in business and government) took the expert warnings seriously and directed the resources necessary to fix the problem to fixing it before it could result in a major calamity. twitter.com/srslywrong/sta…

An unfortunate lack of historical knowledge is very common amongst folks in our society. What tweet-sized tidbit of historical knowledge do you think more people should know?

Men: If you don’t want to get pregnant just don’t have sex. Women: We enjoy sex for pleasure just like you. Men: In my experience that is false. Women: You are not making the point you think you’re making.

Just a reminder that geographic pay bands are both racist and classist.

Today is both a palindrome and an ambigram. Which means it can be read backwards and forwards as well as upside down. This may be my most useful tweet ever. Good day.

No. Women who are more agreeable are more favorably considered. I’ve been ghosted when I ask for paybands, and when I’ve tried to negotiate in the past. That taught me to accept what was offered and deal with being underpaid or else I might not be employed at all.

But I also think that in most cases, women end up having a lower salary in tech not because the hiring team has something against women, but because on average women are more agreeable than men. I'm open to having my mind changed on this though with a study.

We are now entering a Spotify no-man’s land. A month to listen to whatever you want without affecting your Wrapped. A time to be truly unhinged.

We really pissed off tens of thousands of white supremacists with our new show #SantaInc which is now available on HBOMAX! (Please read the responses to this tweet for confirmation)

Out with the old, in with the elf. Watch the redband trailer for Santa Inc., starring Sarah Silverman and Seth Rogen. #SantaInc premieres December 2 on HBO Max.

Love the “before you quit” points. If you feel safe talking with your manager, try being open with them about what you need. I only know what I see and what the people who report to me tell me. Putting on a stoic/happy face can mask problems that are totally improvable!
