Justice is not a limited resource. Justice is not a limited resource. Justice is not a limited resource.
Let's do away with scarcity models that White supremacy taught us.

"We've got to stop acting as if justice is a limited resource."

The bonus episode with former Governor @DevalPatrick is out now. Listen on @Spotify.

Unexpected things I miss about not working on a college campus: food courts with seasonal soup on snowy days.

@abid_rob I mean my other 'solution' is to watch more love is blind 🙃

[Abby Chien @AbbChien]

@sabzi_k I love this so much. So happy for you!

@SidebarVideo I'm planning to use the platform to host an event and have used it before, but the message/chat function isn't working. Can anyone help? I emailed [email protected] from your website but the email bounced back🤔

Who knew that I'd spend 10 years dreading ice breaker/get to know you activities only to find it's my superpower and joy to facilitate now that my audience isn't college students? The universe has been playing the long game for me. Am I officially an ex-pat of student affairs?

[Abby Chien @AbbChien]

@abid_rob All the things. Yes pls!

[Abby Chien @AbbChien]

Did you know that 40% of students nationwide who start college don't finish? Yeah, that's a big percentage.

For states to meet their growing econ & workforce needs, they need to help more people earn a college degree or credential. For #CollegeCompletionDay, @MDRC_News, @SHEEOEd, @EdTrust, & @TICAS_org, have new strategy guides with policy recs & research https://t.co/Zg2JSytBqi

Does someone want to help me write a song called "coffee and cough drops" Extra points if you let me add a verse about a cat-shaped mug for said coffee.

Today I retired my college nickname that'd been serving as my twitter handle since 2009...It's a new era. Thanks @RLMcGuire89 for 10+ years of being Abby-Shbabby.

Two days in a row someone in my neighborhood has been shredding on the accordion. I'd like to be their musical neighborhood buddy. Maybe it can cancel out the neighborhood church bells that miss every other note.

What software tools do you use to stay organized across multiple types of info? I have PDF reports that I've marked up, links to info that lives only on the internet and my own notes. What are you using? I've tried OneNote and excel spreadsheets and feel like a dinosaur. #help

[Abby Chien @AbbChien]

@jpierso2 @dog_rates @dog_feelings I do now!

[Abby Chien @AbbChien]

Today I realized I don't know how to use non-academic twitter. I like a critical lenses, women of color being badasses and change makers, petty drama, cute animals and anything in between. Recommendations welcome.

@chelsea_e_noble "There are two kinds of writers: those who like em dashes and impostors." I feel seen! Haha thanks friend!

[Abby Chien @AbbChien]

@chelsea_e_noble ...please teach me the shortcut! What a gamechanger....!

[Abby Chien @AbbChien]

@msajeffries I'm offended. It's straight up rude.

[Abby Chien @AbbChien]

@garrt I think you can just call it un-convection-al 🙃

@dananobispacem @tarja_pk @RandeeMarie21 Hahahha Dana! This is everything.
