@NoetheMatt Answering people's questions about what your job is?

How many times can I let @VerizonSupport that my stepdad is dead--VERY dead, indeed--before they agree to disconnect his line?!#undas #dayofthedead #theafterlife

@TashaCMN WTF!!! How can I help (if you would like any)?

I have been informed that I am being replaced as the Editor in Chief of @eLife for retweeting a @TheOnion piece that calls out indifference to the lives of Palestinian civilians.

Thanks for the tip, @violetbfox !

@tonyrosaspeaks @TheOfficial_KH @FylproMabuhay @LEADFilipino @Fils4Justice Agree! The distinction (history vs heritage) is so important. Both are interlinked, but not the same. What an opportunity to focus on Fil-Am labor and political history, solidarity movements, groundbreaking Fil-Am leaders and more.

@acht I can only think of the fun RESULT, because I hate the process: fries!
