@treblemaker909 This is hilariously anthropocentric

@bevthescientist They’re watching u through the camera!!! 😂

@TheSmacktivist Either that or someone higher up the chain gets sick personal satisfaction out of watching govt scientists smash their heads into their keyboards on the daily 😂🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

I've spent 98% of my day restarting my computer, how's your Monday going?

@treblemaker909 I have loved this bi/pan battle that has been happening the last few years in FULL FORCE. (Personally I’m in the “‘bi’ indicates two,” camp.) it’s funniest because neither identity is inherently opposed to the other, but ppl wanna conflate what each one means??

@bevthescientist Something about how they love cutting corners lol

@TheSmacktivist You'd think the government would splurge a little more for their tech 😂

@Blazzikenn Yep I am on the spectrum!

@kweerious @WFTDA Thanks for this! I’m definitely interested in the very practical ways that this is being done, particularly in regards to transparency and accessibility.

Happy to see quick and thoughtful movement on this on behalf of @WFTDA. A few things to consider: 1) How helpful is a platform like Twitter, with limited characters, in hosting such a nuanced conversation? 2) Who’s leading the conversation and whose voices are being centered?

@LightningSlim1 @alexhanna This is what I would imagine..... also how does social hierarchy play a role?

@alexhanna I wonder if it's limited by power considerations? Like, you could have one on a starship or a military base but there's just not enough computational or physical power to have one in your house? (I don't actually know how access to advanced AI is distributed in-universe)

Apropos of nothing, how do you think that access to teleportation works in the Star Trek universe? Is it tightly regulated by an FAA-like body? Limited to military use? Or does everyone have one, like a car or a bike.

Important piece from .@ATLRollerDerby's Queen Loseyateefa. #DerbyTwitter "We just want the score to be truly 0–0 at the first whistle." thederbyapex.com/systemic-racis…

Why does professionalism always have to mean we dampen our sense of humanity and care toward one another? IMO true “professionalism” is leading with values that you can enact in real ways.

no cops at pride just an entire woman's roller derby team skating around knocking over homophobes

@GAYPOETSOClETY CAN I COMMENT THE REMAINING 2,000 COMMENTS THO

@hellatrix93 PASSION PLANNER!

Any recommendations for planners that work for school? I’ve used panda and liked it but not space for HW. Looking at passion or moleskine and making my own layout. I’ll be using it for law school! Help! #lawschooltwitter #needadvice #planner

The fact that this continues to be a problem is ridiculous. I’ve experienced this & also at one tourney last year had a ref bring me glasses that my POC teammate was wearing. When he handed me her glasses I said to him, these are not mine but the other black skater on my team.

@MamaBeans21 @guccimaim1017 @ATLRollerDerby ^^this

@guccimaim1017 @TheSmacktivist @ATLRollerDerby The only shock is that people are shocked.

Let’s all take a moment to appreciate the legacy of badass black skaters on @ATLRollerDerby and the black excellence that gets showcased (and often overlooked) season after season. #ECDX2019 #derbytwitter

@badgermeowmeow @piggleg How’d that work out? Did you have a stroke? #stressssss

Trying to watch 3 live derby games .... *heavy breathing* #derbytwitter #wftda #ecdx #hometownthrowdown philly vs rainy, Denver vs angel, Gotham vs Atlanta

@ItsLilTex @guccimaim1017 @ATLRollerDerby Not one like that, that’s for sure. 😕 REFS/NSOS are the real champions!!!

@guccimaim1017 @ATLRollerDerby I should say, too, what adds to the nuance is the ways that refs tend not to get a lot of recognition and appreciation, and I wonder how much that plays into it being difficult to take in that feedback. (Not an excuse, but a dynamic to be noted?)
