If you were hired during the earlier days of the pandemic, what practices, whisper network info, or institutional mores were put into place for you to create a sense of safety as a new employee? If you didn't feel a sense of safety -in various senses- what would you have liked?

@lakonata @bpfiedler Thank you @lakonata and for sharing some of your work, I never got to read when we worked together.📚✊🏾

#CALM2023 Do you manage BIPOC employees or care about well-being and longevity within your organization? Stay tuned for the deets on how to watch @bpfiedler, James Cheng, & I's presentation entitled Moving beyond recruitment and hiring: How to retain academic librarians of color.

#CALM2023 #LibCALM Day 2: Does your profession take the time to call out why so many like organizations suck? Annie Downey is schooling us from a sociohistorical feminist power analysis viewpoint in librarianship & I. AM. HERE. FOR. IT! We have a way to go, but we say the thing!

@arellanover @bpfiedler @CalmConference Same!

[Brittani Sterling -- We Gon' Learn Today! OK?! @Professor_ish]

@CharlotteRock @Fobettarh Couldn't agree more! Librarians also need to take a healthy look at the way they cathect with the whole academic/librarianship complex to fully divest from internalized vocational awe in my humble opinion.

What do you think the difference is between remote work during the pandemic vs "regular" telecommuting? Curious for your thoughts, especially if you work in #HigherEd or #Libraries ?

@UFCJCLibrarian There's so much advice I still auto use. Those mags were indoctrination at its finest! 😆

Writing is a liberatory practice! It is a place to be courageous...& wage war.😈 The practice of writing is your legacy, a point of connection with your ancestors, & a legacy on the page. It is freedom. It is voice. It is the place YOUR story gets to shine. Not #IMustDo #ICreate

What surprised you most about the Love is Blind Reunion? Tell me your thoughts in a reply!

Am I the only one who is over the host(s)? I've thought this for awhile, but especially since the show seems to attract a different kind of thing now, it doesn't need to be them. #IYKYK

[Brittani Sterling -- We Gon' Learn Today! OK?! @Professor_ish]

@netflix that isn't the thumbs ups and downs. It feels like you need a better third option, even if it's just like a forum, form, or email that handles those point of information only, that can only be checked internally.

[Brittani Sterling -- We Gon' Learn Today! OK?! @Professor_ish]

@netflix of leaving a negative review, like tens of thousands of people last night ( maybe more), I would've loved to offer some feedback of LIB season 4, that had nothing to do with last night's technical difficulties. I was really surprised to find out there's not way to leave feedback.

[Brittani Sterling -- We Gon' Learn Today! OK?! @Professor_ish]

@netflix Can I ask why there's not a way to leave feedback for a show except for a chat (where only account or technical issues can be handled) or to call, which seems arcane and old-fashioned for something like show feedback. I assume that you wouldn't want to be inundated,but instead...

[Brittani Sterling -- We Gon' Learn Today! OK?! @Professor_ish]

So I've been hearing about this from friend who live here for a few weeks. This IS a BIG thing to be concerned about for more than just access reasons y'all...it's also a little too close to out west for my comfort. 😶‍🌫️

@MPHMedLib @bpfiedler 🥳🤯😭🎊🎉

[Brittani Sterling -- We Gon' Learn Today! OK?! @Professor_ish]
