Opinions and humor are my own. I’ve got loads of both.

Well this describes it perfectly. #jesusfeminist https://t.co/sKIEOAbeAZ

@saint_lazarus_ So decent. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

@_kenNObarbie_ My son had that look when he found out we had a “Sandi” in the family because he saw the name card at Thanksgiving. Grandma Sandi leaned in real close. “The whole time?” he asked. 😂

I shared this with a friend and she told me she WAS THERE — and it was amazing. What a gift of hope and joy in the midst of a dire season. And 10 years later, Batkid lives! Don’t skip this heart-warming story!

[Make-A-Wish Greater Bay Area @WishGreaterBay]

Ten years ago, the world witnessed the incredible transformation of wish kid Miles into #Batkid and followed along as he saved the city of SF. In celebration of the 10-year anniversary of this remarkable wish, we're sharing a video update on how Miles is doing today. 🦇 #SFBatkid

@AlaskaAir I’m a loyal fan but when ground crew flat out lies about lack of bin space, forces people to unnecessarily check bags, hassles passenger over airline compliant dog carrier. What’s going on? Your people are stressed & can’t provide service with integrity. #airlinefail

[Amanda (she/her) @AmandaHiggins1]

RIP #southwestairlines My baby stranded in Nashville then St. Lois 2 days she can’t afford. Will not fly with you until you’ve shown *years of stellar operational & service track record. When your systems fail, but you blame passengers & weather. #airlinefail @SouthwestAir

Skills, relationships in the sense of how you show up, and importantly—scope. Promotions are about taking on more responsibility and being ready for it. Thinking about how to help others demonstrate readiness.

[Harvard Business Review @HarvardBiz]

Have you ever been told by your manager that you “just aren’t ready” for a promotion? https://t.co/dSbp3ULwT0

@urmumsausername The off part we got covered.

Well, happy hump day. Let’s change the face of health care in this nation. Great news for Kaiser Permanente, Geisinger, and community based health care everywhere. Exciting work ahead!

[Kaiser Permanente @aboutKP]

We and @GeisingerHealth announce the launch of Risant Health, a nonprofit committed to expanding + accelerating #ValueBasedCare in multi-payer, multi-provider, community-based health environments. Geisinger is the 1st health system to join Risant. https://t.co/QuUEGDsyZI /1

[Amanda (she/her) @AmandaHiggins1]

Had some fun today celebrating “our” teams going into playoffs tomorrow. It’s 100% because KP sponsors and cares for both teams!

[KPNorthernCal @kpnorcal]

Whether you are rooting for #DubNation or the #BeamTeam, we are proud to be the official team physicians for both the @warriors and @SacramentoKings! Best of luck to both teams as they continue to make Northern California proud!

[Amanda (she/her) @AmandaHiggins1]

First. In the nation. Wow! Proud of Kaiser Permanente for commitments like this to care for the earth and communities. Environmental stewardship with teeth is the kind of ethics and integrity that creates total health.

The first US net-zero health facility is at @kpsantarosa. The Mercury Way Medical Offices generates enough solar power to fulfill the building's energy requirements. Learn more: https://t.co/dCsaHYqB3n

@Theholisticpsyc P.s. I love you

@emilykmay They existed in 1984. I went to one on my 16th birthday. It was amazing.

[Amanda (she/her) @AmandaHiggins1]

@Theholisticpsyc Amending my tweet. I think the responses show deep fear of abandonment for imperfections, painful struggles, and mental or physical health challenges. When indeed that’s not the point. A relationship that’s not healthy for you is about hurtful dysfunction, not hardships.

[Amanda (she/her) @AmandaHiggins1]

@Theholisticpsyc The responses to this tweet illustrate how deeply embedded “even if it kills me” partner commitment is in our culture. We can’t even imagine there’s a range between “only if convenient” & “extenuating.” If you don’t believe there’s an option until you’re bout dead, you will be.

@BethMooreLPM Just finished the audiobook in the wee hours of this morning after starting maybe a day and a half ago. I cried. Such familiar pain and tenderness, grief and something like new life, untethered shuffling, and moments of solid assurance. You are a gift.

[Amanda (she/her) @AmandaHiggins1]

@KatecBowler @BethMooreLPM What’s the book on women who gain power without permission? I want to read THAT! Listened 2 & loved the podcast. All My Knotted Up Life is already in my ears. I so admire you both, despite my complicated relationship with church and God. Actually…because of it.

@PastorLibrarian My 8 year old picking an “appropriate” movie for a class party:

“Well, Elf is out.”

Me: “Why?”

8: “Helloooo…shower scene?”

[Amanda (she/her) @AmandaHiggins1]

@BethMooreLPM Well, that’s disappointing. I suppose next you’ll say there are no medals for sarcasm and it’s not a fruit of the spirit.

[Amanda (she/her) @AmandaHiggins1]

@Jim_Jordan This is a parody right? It has to be a joke.

[Amanda (she/her) @AmandaHiggins1]

@AnnaKendrick47 You taste dirty penny? Lucky!
