@MerriamWebster DISAGREE it's my favorite adjective.

Although the Mirzayan Fellows couldn’t take a fancy group photo this year because of COVID-19, I’m glad we were able to get a group Zoom photo (and we fit the screen perfectly)! @mirzayanfellow #mirzayan #NASEM #virtual #zoom #COVIDー19

As someone who frequently takes self-notes during a meeting and gets asked by (male) colleagues to circulate to the group, I find these tips helpful in declining the request👇🏻👇🏻 (Thread)

oh, what am I working on? I’m currently working on a queuing model that will show city council why changing the right lane of the road near my house to a right-turn-only lane was an objectively terrible idea...

I am so ashamed of the president of my country. How dare you threaten to withdraw money while men and women risk their lives battling this fire, and while civilians lose everything. This from the man who wouldn’t visit a cemetery in the rain? I am so ashamed.

[Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump]

There is no reason for these massive, deadly and costly forest fires in California except that forest management is so poor. Billions of dollars are given each year, with so many lives lost, all because of gross mismanagement of the forests. Remedy now, or no more Fed payments!

Congratulations to @AuburnU @SUNY @INFORMS_TAMU for winning the SUMMA CUM LAUDE for the best student chapter award at #informs2018. Really proud of all your hardwork and accomplishments.

[Brittany Segundo @bandInterWebs]

I always knew these people were winners of the highest order, even before tonight 💚 @INFORMS_TAMU @TAMU_ISEN @TAMUEngineering @INFORMS2018 #INFORMS2018 #summaCumLaude

[Brittany Segundo @bandInterWebs]

Was quite nervous before my presentation, and a peer told me something along the lines of, "Everyone in the room is smart. You're not trying to be the smartest in the room. But you're the one who sat down and did the math, and they didn't." And I found that oddly reassuring.

My lab mate and I are presenting on water and fire applications of SMIP at 1:30! Come join us to find out if we address all the elements of nature... #INFORMS2018 #ORMS

@Aziz69195962 @nntaleb Someone recently recommend this one to me...let me know what you think!

[Brittany Segundo @bandInterWebs]

@nadiawuzhere Oh that makes sense 🤦🏻‍♀️ then ignore eBay

[Brittany Segundo @bandInterWebs]

@nadiawuzhere May I ask why? (Also: check eBay if local bookstores don’t have it!)
