People will stan a CEO billionaire that is PUBLICLY SHITTING on his own team but then call out employees for responding to that PUBLIC SHITTING in a defensive way. Amazing. If my manager publicly shit on my work on here, you’re god damn right I would yeet my job into space.

Publicly firing an employee as well as mocking employees you’ve fired is some of the worst leadership I’ve ever seen. Firing people is part of the job sometimes, it should almost always make you feel sick. When it doesn’t you need to do some self evaluation on you in your role.

Did you know that wearing an N95 face mask can reduce COVID transmission by over 83%, a surgical mask by 66% and a cloth mask by 50%? Case and hospitalisation numbers show Victoria is entering a new COVID wave.

From what I hear, they have today to work out who to fire or they owe them a lot more money. Hopefully nobody burns toast right under a smoke detector.

so my understanding is at twitter HQ, the folks running things in the “war room” are Musk, David Sacks, Jason Calacanis (VCs/Elon pals) Sriram Krishnan (exTwitter/current a16z), Elon’s legal and finance head guys (Spiro, Birchall) and a fleet of Tesla/BoringCo engineers

2/ Bridges were closed, which is critical in my area - some parents were out of reach of the flood, but couldn't pick children up from school! was a constant source of misleading information throughout and for a couple of days after. I know they can do better.

1/ (who have an entire https site dedicated to telling people to go the insecure site) were only updating river level charts hourly, often with data that was 20 minutes old! Timely information is critical!

“Fight transphobia because they won’t stop there” isn’t it. Fight transphobia because it harms trans people. It harms people. “There was no one left to speak for me.” is not a moral argument. They are coming for anyone. We must speak out because they are coming for anyone.

this morning a peloton instructor told me “flowers don’t bloom with the expectation they’ll be desirable to spectators” and after some consideration that’s just completely wrong

"Bedroom" musicians: before sinking all your money figuring out the way to get that cranked tone at bedroom levels, ask yourself if there's a room you can just soundproof. Trust me, you'll save yourself a lot of disappointment and money.
Anxiety tip: Next time you cringe over some embarrassing moment you had years ago try to remember other people's embarrassing moments. You can’t can you? That’s because you’re the only embarrassing human to exist, everyone else is always thinking about how cringey you are.
