@catladykristen "Perfect use" means that if you were to do everything correctly--in the case of condoms-- 2 out of 100 people would get pregnant. "Typical use" takes into account all that might go wrong. (Human error, poor fit, etc)

[Meg K McLaughlin @MegMadeThat]

@catladykristen Condoms are 85% effective with typical use & 98% effective with perfect use

@perfectwoman666 😮 I was just thinking about this brah yesterday while doing laundry

[Meg K McLaughlin @MegMadeThat]

@SlackHQ @AppleSupport Got it fixed by closing Slack, turning of Notification Center through the Activity Monitor, re-opening Slack, waiting for a notification to come through, opening the notification panel in system prefs again, "allowing" slack notifications, and then sliding off "allow." woo boy!

[Meg K McLaughlin @MegMadeThat]

Hey @SlackHQ , can you help me? This is very distracting! No badges pleaaaase! #ADHD

[Meg K McLaughlin @MegMadeThat]

@SlackHQ Slack doesn't appear in my System Preferences > Notification list. Looks like this is a known issue with Big Sur (https://t.co/bvFTvFI4Ml). I'm running through this list & hoping there's an actual fix soon so I don't lose my mind :). @SlackHQ @AppleSupport

@HowtoADHD Normalize not sitting still! It's helpful for everyone. On Zoom calls I'm running, I try to make sure everyone knows they're free to turn off their camera, take a break, get a snack. I hope to do this back in an office too. Need to do pushups? Take this call from your desk? Okay!

Never has a GIF made me cry. Until tonight. [origin unknown]

@WanderlustYoga trying to book virtual classes on MindBody, but my Virtual True North Membership is only working on in-studio classes this week. 🤷‍♀️ Hoping this gets fixed soon. These classes have been so great in quarantine. Thanks!

i’m losing it thinking about graphic designers being asked to design apologies but keep it “on brand”

Great job, team! @LegalZoom is co-funding @JoinPaladin’s pro bono disaster relief portal to help low-income Americans affected by #COVID19.

If you know someone who may qualify, help spread the word by sharing the national hotline: [phone]. https://t.co/lnmcVnA9al

[LegalZoom @LegalZoom]

We’re incredibly proud to support @JoinPaladin’s continued efforts to bring #probono legal help to those most in need, in partnership with the @ABAYLD and @FEMA. Help us spread the word so that those who need legal help during this pandemic can get it! https://t.co/PKzMUvBKHM

@Chase support told me yesterday that once fraudulent charges posted, I could mark them as such online, but alas, nope. I'm glad call centers aren't open 24/7, but I really wish I could at least flag the charges myself.

[Meg K McLaughlin @MegMadeThat]

@advancingresrch Oh, nope! Thanks for emailing. See y'all virtually 🤖

[Meg K McLaughlin @MegMadeThat]

@advancingresrch CAN we still attend in person? Is this conference affected by the ban of gatherings of 500+ people?

[Meg K McLaughlin @MegMadeThat]

@askmadewell What on Earth does "tall" and "taller" mean? I'm sure the marketing team thought it was cute, but it's meaningless. What are the differences in inseam and rise?

[Meg K McLaughlin @MegMadeThat]

@mpellittieri Wait, have I been in the 3rd trimester for 5 years????
