Robin Marwick (gone away)

No longer active here. See link for where to find me.

Yeah, so, in case Twitter is gone when I get back from choir practice, you can find me on IG as electric_landlady. Or on FB I guess. Or through my website. Or…LinkedIn? (The only other Robin Marwick who shows up in search results is dead. I’m not him.)

@Ohmisssally @web4O @dieworkwear Clothing construction absolutely makes a difference.

[Robin Marwick (gone away) @electricland]

Oh Jesus, this tweet was less than a year ago? Time really has lost all meaning.

(I stand by my original reply, btw. It’s not always that simple; if tech wants us all syncing our calendars, maybe tech should make calendars that fucking work.)

[Natalie Claire @and_cities]

Is it true; people in academia don’t sync their calendars? Like, when you need to arrange a meeting with a colleague it’s a back and forth email conversation until you find an available date/time. Coming from the tech world, I’m in shock. #phdvoice #AcademicTwitter @PhDVoice

This is in St. John's, but you see stuff like this all over cities, including Toronto, if you keep your eyes open.

I think it's an under-remarked beautiful thing that artists are relentlessly decorating cities — generally without permission, credit or compensation.

they paved it 😿

[Robin Marwick (gone away) @electricland]

I read a Wombles book about this once…

[Brittlestar @brittlestar]

I taught high school briefly (Commtech) and one of the things that struck me the most about that time was that school is sometimes the best and safest part of some kids' day.

We need to protect kids.
Blanket policies like this don't do that.

[Kemprich @kprestwich]

Remember when we were reassuring ourselves that this shit wouldn’t happen here? They can’t even fix our crumbling schools but they can go out of their way to attack trans kids. Fuck @fordnation with the force of an atom bomb.

Update: there are now 305 publications/organizations/news channels listed. I added a column for people to describe the nature of the assignment and there's still a column for any higher up at the outlet to comment on their practices. https://t.co/DWoW10MTfU

[Robin Marwick (gone away) @electricland]

So the suggested text for this tweet is “Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary”

But I didn’t join X. I joined Twitter. Crucial distinction. #MyTwitterAnniversary

[Deonandan @deonandan]

Breaking news. Supposed leading public intellectual thinks digital map pins are drawn to scale. smh.

[Robin Marwick (gone away) @electricland]

@DrJenGunter Gross. I’m so sorry.

[Robin Marwick (gone away) @electricland]

For people who want to know more about these small interactions, I highly recommend the @lingthusiasm episode on phatics: https://t.co/4rf2cpCb8E

They are pretty universal, culturally specific, and confuse just about everyone at some point.

I see we are doing "how are you" discourse again.

As an ND person, may I introduce you to "I'm hanging in there." That is social script for "I am not OK, I do not want to talk about it."

They will probably say "I hear you." And they do. You have shared a moment of exhaustion.
