I changed my first name a decade ago when I was in college. It took money, time, effort, and emotional energy, but/and I am so so glad I did. It is amazing being called the name that fits me & not being called the one that doesn’t.

@emillyorr @AceOnFire77 @AnaMardoll Volunteering at and getting books at the monthly library book sales was a HUGE part of my childhood/teen life. Thanks @SDPublicLibrary

@mbserum Hi, Are you asking what the word misgendered means?

@thegeneticsgal misgendered?

Agree. Also, it would take the burden off of employees of needing to guess everyone’s gender.

@mbbarnyard @mekkalekkah I don’t think people generally use gendered terms in this context anyway. Do you say “Hey, she, where is the dressing room?”

@mekkalekkah But how do you approach somebody and ask them where something is located? Hey Them, were is the dressing room? I basically just have to say excuse me where is the dressing room. I try to stay gender neutral.

@JoyceCarolOates “I had to call my doctor about my chronic inability to understand that the singular they has been in use in English since the 1300s.” “Oh, what did they say?”

@BreatheNewWinds It didn’t help that much of the employee training was about how great the company was, instead of about how to do the job.

@BreatheNewWinds I worked briefly as a grocery bagger. My back started hurting almost immediately & the job took skill, in terms of efficiency & dealing with people. It’s also my only job where I experienced (mild) sexual harassment.

Forcing people return to work for less than a living wage by cancelling unemployment benefits is the definition of class warfare.

I just wrote a @IfNotNowOrg letter: Jews Against the Blank Check: Tell your Representative to Sign Rep. McCollum’s Palestinian Children and Families Act. Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/jews-a…

@ShiraDest Thank you! I came to Twitter today to ask you for this link. (The month has raced by since you told me about this post — my to do list has been sooo long.) Look forward to reading.

Here is the expansion on my ideas that you were asking about, Masha @thegeneticsgal

@davidsirota 🐶💜 Sending you warm thoughts, David.

Thanks to working at a college, I was early-ish to being able to get a #covidvaccine. I feel super grateful. As of today, I have my second shot! instagr.am/p/CMstpINjCRR/

@WalkerBragman I think that’s disregarding all of the people who are bullied by people who continue to bully & are not brought down.

It’s unfortunate Mr. Bezos won’t join our hearing. While he’s become $78 billion richer during the pandemic, families are struggling to survive, so why is he spending a whole lot of money to stop workers from organizing a union at an Amazon warehouse in Alabama?

@marwilliamson It is just a bit less dystopian than the "Brave girl sells cookies so that mom can get brain surgery" headline. The difference here is that Biden has a responsibility, but in both cases it tries to frame something horrific in a feel-good tone to normalize what is horrific.

Smearing Tara into silence won’t prove anything. Red flags aren’t enough to say “case closed” w/o investigation, Which Tara never got, she got a lot of pro-Biden media jabbing at her to defend their potential prez, even after having written about his creepy behavior in the past
