@corinnemckay @Jeromobot 🤣🤣🤣 You should have asked me - "Tuomas" would have been fine. Anyhow, it went well, if I remember correctly. 👍

@kaarinagould @asberner Samoin onnistui minulle juuri tänään. Kaliforniassa kaksi ensimmäistä rokotusta alkuvuodesta ja tänään kolmas Helsingissä. Ja nyt sain juuri EU:n rokotustodistuksen. 👍💉💉💉

@NorthBayNews "vaccinated daily"?

[Tuomas Kostiainen @TKostiainen]

@marinparks Very nice. It was a pleasure to ride today. Thank you! When do we get a new asphalt for the pathway?

@redtim @DrewTumaABC7 Seemingly need to enlarge the picture to see it.🙄

[Tuomas Kostiainen @TKostiainen]

@redtim @DrewTumaABC7 Same in San Rafael: couple of drops and that beautiful red rainbow.

@co_ptic Thank you @co_ptic and @futbollos for all your hard work on this! This "project" was a real eye-opener for me. I don't have much respect left for CA lawmakers after seeing how #AB5 was handled and how they "tried" to "fix" it. #fixAB5 #AB2257

@TuomasKurttila @JariTaponen @HelsinkiPoliisi Ihan samoin ajattelin uutista lukiessani. Ja ne, joiden mielestä tämä on "lässytystä", niin tervetuloa tänne Jenkkilään katsomaan, mitä pamputtavalla poliisilla saadaan aikaan.

@janijarvi @MLahteenaro @pasi_sihvonen @luomus Olin yli 30 vuotta sitten assistenttina maatalous- ja metsäeläintieteen laitoksella Viikissä -- ei ollut meidän hyönt.tieteen opintomoniste näin hieno. 😀

#SB900: Thanks to diligent advocacy by @co_ptic supporters, a new state bill that respects the indispensable work of interpreters and translators and protects Californians’ access to language services has gained introduction in the legislature. #FixAB5 #1nt #xl8

England, the nation that gifted many others with the imperial measurement system, needs a complex system to feel at home.

So your safety zone in England is eight hedgehogs or three badgers.

Please remember that one badger is equal to 2.7 hedgehogs!

We have made the FIRST INTERNATIONAL FIELD GUIDE to PHYSICAL (aka social) DISTANCING! This is all just a bit of fun, and at the very least we hope you have a good laugh, or ideally the idea of physical distancing sticks with you a bit better! #SocialDistancing #COVID19 #corona

@davincidiva @BlueUrpi @KevinKileyCA @LorenaAD80 @LorenaSGonzalez Well said Lisa. You are absolutely right.

[InterpretAmerica @InterpAmerica]

, @IMIAUpdates joins @AIICUSA @atanet TAALS, @JNCLInfo and others in calling for an exemption from #AB5 for pro translators and interpreters. Professional associations agree on this. @GavinNewsom @LorenaSGonzalez, you should listen to the experts and #FixAB5.

@LorenaSGonzalez We’re a 7-person translation company, Alameda Co. SLEB. *Utterly impractical* for a small biz like ours to hire 250+ translators as W-2 employees, when the workflow in a given language or technical sub-domain is unpredictable and intermittent. 1/
