@iamharaldur I agree with this and didn't change it, but it means by default I won't have the same last name as my kids. It's tough to choose between keeping my identity and identifying as my child's mother. Or totally going against societal norms. Men, by default, get both.

@chescaleigh I do this! And now my take out is narrowed to Indian (have NOT managed a good palak paneer), Thai and sushi (I'm just lazy on the last 2)

@Matt_MacInnis But running sucks, right?

Dallas Road > Seawall/Stanley Park as a running route.

@DonJuan603 @RebeccaJarvis Thank you!!

BREAKING: Elizabeth Holmes will no longer report to prison to begin her 11 year sentence tomorrow. #ElizabethHolmes

@RebeccaJarvis Thank you for this and all your reporting! I'll stay tuned.

@mlmcm A few weeks

@RebeccaJarvis Any idea how ling these decisions usually take?

Per the rule of the Ninth Circuit, Holmes’ reporting date has been automatically stayed; meaning she won’t report to prison until the Ninth Circuit makes their decision.

@AdrienneNakohl I find conferences can involve a lot of drinking. And I'm more comfortable networking with a drink or food in my hand. So I order a drink I don't really like and it takes me forever to finish it, keeping me sober and hand tied.

I brake my rule number 1 all the time. But usually just for breakfast. Im a slow and quiet morning person and need that time to gather my energy and thoughts before a day full of people. What are your tips for my first time friend? I'll share them with her!

Someone asked me for my conference advice. Here's what I said and why I've broken some of my rules:

Highly recommend!

@Laydee_El I have had fabulous experiences and often tell people I travel solo but that doesn't mean I'm alone. I highly recommend staying in hostels, or if that's not your jam just stop by a hostel bar. You will find all kinds of people who may become company for hours or days!

Am I looking at a solo vacation for the first time in my life? Yep. Is it scaring the hell out of me? Also yep.

@jtferrier Jeff! Wrestling Day is the day after new years! wltribune.com/community/wres…

Happy Wrestling Day

@j_mcelroy Christmas 2021: can visit your family if it doesn't involve driving from the lower mainland on a major highway. And everyone is sick.

Christmas 2020: can’t visit your family Christmas 2021: can visit your family but everyone is sick Christmas 2022: everyone is sick and if it involves flying you can’t visit your family

@dariankovacs I only had 1. And I can only think of 1 who taught core subjects. The rest were teaching indigenous language, arts or indigenous counselors.

Random survey: How many Indigenous teachers did you have from K-12?

@Matt_MacInnis Omg she's FIVE! 🤯

I'm pretty sure our 5 year old only asks me to brush/do her hair so she can troll me afterwards about how much better mom is at it than me.

An advertiser explains why they’re pausing their Twitter ads campaigns:

@mmendeswrites @realBrookNash We call this the "nappuccino" (and actively ignore the fact that you aren't having a cappuccino beforehand because the name is so good)

@realBrookNash Super specific, but chugging an ice coffee then immediately taking a nap. Wake up from the caffeine hitting 30-40 min later. Perfection ✨

What do you 10/10 recommend?

Hey @profgalloway, if twitter declares bankruptcy can Elon get out of paying interest to his creditors?

@mkobach Plus every time you travel you would have to figure out what time shops open in that location, when sunrise / typical breakfast is, etc. And jet lag would still exist as you change you sleeping schedule to daylight hours in that location.

@mkobach It's way easier to say "you're 8 hours ahead" and automatically know the general outline of the day (start work sometime ~8-9am, finish ~ 5pm, etc.) then it is to have to establish those parameters.

We shouldn’t get rid of daylight saving time. We should get rid of time zones all together. If time were invented today, no way we’d have time zones. It’s time for universal time.
