If a woman chooses to take her husband’s last name, they have no problem accepting that as her new name. They drop her maiden name so hard it becomes a security question.
But a trans person takes a new name, and it’s just SO hard for them to not use the old name anymore.
@sweetpavement We’re in the U.K. so have ourselves punched out for the weekend but we’ll take a look and get back to you. In the meantime this from @_leenam might be a good article to start with: https://t.co/bYMgUsUfdU
@TheLeadDev@sweetpavement Hey @TheLeadDev ! I love seeing my article re-shared, but I think there’s a glitch in Echobox that’s causing this tweet to go out every few days :)
The single piece of advice I give new managers is “you will get a long way by consistently showing up and giving a damn about the other person as a human being”.

I accidentally paid for a @noom subscription after doing the trial and not liking it, and it was so easy and quick to get the charge refunded through their customer support chat.
Even though Noom isn’t for me, I respect companies that stand by their product. Kudos!
@apanzerj @dileshnij I think the lesson here is - everybody’s got a time that’s important to them. I’d love if people were able to set up their calendars to reflect that (and have others respect it).
@apanzerj @dileshnij Honestly though I want to start late in the morning, read, drink multiple coffees, maybe eat a donut. But once I sit at my desk I don’t want to get up until the day is over
