@SarahTaber_bww Can confirm! When we heard gunshots outside our apartment in Toronto, I ran towards the window while my hubs ran away 😂😂😂

@MostlyMicroglia @MaynardsBassett Amazing 😂 must update!

[AngryScienceMom @AngryScienceMom]

@MostlyMicroglia @MaynardsBassett Omg you solved it!! 🥳🥳🤓

This is brilliant. If your employer tweets about #IWD2022, @PayGapApp will tweet the gender pay gap for that company. 😱 This is not going well for a LOT of firms

@MostlyMicroglia YOU CANT NOT FINISH THIS THREAD!! WHAT IS IT?!?

[AngryScienceMom @AngryScienceMom]

@MostlyMicroglia Thank you, I needed that laugh 😂😂

@EPrecipice I managed to mess up the tweeters handle it’s @EPrecipice here’s the corrected version.

@PeelCOVIDWatch What’s an asterisk mean? I just noticed it (like next to White Oaks)

Dear #byronmacdonald, @cbcolympics, and pretty much every reporter ever,
If you wouldn’t say “boy” in the same context, please don’t say “girl.” 😒 #girlinthesix 🙄

Congrats to Penny Oleksiak anyway 🥳

I'm not angry today; I spent a good portion of the day chatting with other working moms, getting advice, sharing resources, making connections, helping each other. Women lifting up other women. #girlpower #momsatwork #smashthepatriarchy

Recently learnt of a game changer book for division of labour at home, a growing issue given the pandemic and the extra burden primarily shouldered by women... check out the book (and cards!) "Fair Play" by Eve Rodsky.

Best dedication ever.

Can someone please explain to me why the next step in non-academic career progression for a PhD is an internship? I just spent 23 LONG years in school/training, I really don't want another 6mos. SOMEONE GIVE ME A REAL JOB 🤪🤪

[AngryScienceMom @AngryScienceMom]

Probably the best explanation I’ve seen about why women hate cat-calling: a Reddit reply on the topic of an abductor who kept the container of the decomposing body rather than disposing of the evidence.

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS THIS?! Women accounted FOR ALL THE LOSSES?!?

[CNN @CNN]

US employers cut 140,000 jobs in December, according to the latest jobs report. Women accounted for all the losses, losing 156,000 jobs, while men gained 16,000. https://t.co/cOy8E7eAHN

Every week, there is a parade of anti-maskers that make their way down Bloor and Yonge streets. I don’t understand how outdoor gatherings aren’t allowed but a slew of cops protect the protestors rather than arresting them? Can someone explain this to me? #genuinelycurious

[AngryScienceMom @AngryScienceMom]

Today I learnt a parenting rephrase that I think all higher-ups need to use:

Instead of asking “do you have any questions?”
Ask, “what questions do you have?”

People will be much more willing to ask a question rather than gut-reacting with “no.”

Reading How Women Rise:

Me: “wow that’s so true, that behavior IS totally holding me back!”

Also me: “what the bullshit is this that I have to change my behavior because we live in a f*ed up patriarchal society!!”
