Yeah, so, in case Twitter is gone when I get back from choir practice, you can find me on IG as electric_landlady. Or on FB I guess. Or through my website. Or…LinkedIn? (The only other Robin Marwick who shows up in search results is dead. I’m not him.)

my hot take is that if you recognize clothing was better generations ago and think that it should still be so today, you have to be willing to pay the prices people paid for clothes generations ago (which is not $50 dress shirts, $70 pants, $90 shoes)

Oh Jesus, this tweet was less than a year ago? Time really has lost all meaning. (I stand by my original reply, btw. It’s not always that simple; if tech wants us all syncing our calendars, maybe tech should make calendars that fucking work.)
Natalie Claire@and_cities

Is it true; people in academia don’t sync their calendars? Like, when you need to arrange a meeting with a colleague it’s a back and forth email conversation until you find an available date/time. Coming from the tech world, I’m in shock. #phdvoice #AcademicTwitter @PhDVoice

This is in St. John's, but you see stuff like this all over cities, including Toronto, if you keep your eyes open. I think it's an under-remarked beautiful thing that artists are relentlessly decorating cities — generally without permission, credit or compensation.

I taught high school briefly (Commtech) and one of the things that struck me the most about that time was that school is sometimes the best and safest part of some kids' day. - We need to protect kids. Blanket policies like this don't do that.
Rachel Gilmore@atRachelGilmore

These policies will kill kids. In 2022, 45% of LGBTQ youth eriously considered committing suicide, including more than half of trans and nonbinary youth. But LGBTQ youth consistently report lower rates of attempting suicide if they have access to affirming spaces.

Update: there are now 305 publications/organizations/news channels listed. I added a column for people to describe the nature of the assignment and there's still a column for any higher up at the outlet to comment on their practices. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

Just found out that someone had my great grandfather who lived his entire life in the UK, who was a Primitive Methodist religion wise, was baptized by someone in the Mormon church in December 1980 in Iowa Falls. Our family is very angry. Also, they won’t tell us who did it.

For people who want to know more about these small interactions, I highly recommend the @lingthusiasm episode on phatics: lingthusiasm.com/post/623851629… They are pretty universal, culturally specific, and confuse just about everyone at some point.

I see we are doing "how are you" discourse again. As an ND person, may I introduce you to "I'm hanging in there." That is social script for "I am not OK, I do not want to talk about it." They will probably say "I hear you." And they do. You have shared a moment of exhaustion.
