Shame on you ⁦@RioTinto⁩. Shame! This is a national and international outrage and disgrace. #ReconciliationWeek2020 https://t.co/1hehA3Gjzv

Prepare yourselves for a long thread about the UNSW decision to close one of its #childcare centres...Tonight when I picked my 3 year old up from the centre that is set to close I encountered staff and parents in tears and absolute shock.

So happy to be able to speak about #gender equity with @EngAustralia CEO Bronwyn Evans in today’s @theage we have so much work to do in engineering, so let’s stop trying to fix women and focus on fixing the systems and cultures!

In the middle of Australia's #bushfire crisis, some faces have become familiar. One of those, standing to the right of the
@NSWRFS Commissioner is #Auslan interpreter Sean Sweeney. https://t.co/9PQnf1OAE9

How women get written out of history: I'm working on a small blog post about a couple who collaborated closely together. He is the famous one with his own wikipedia page; she doesn't have one. I have to keep correcting myself as this stuff is so ingrained.

I don't assume I know someone's pronoun based on their appearance or name. Like the @nyctaxi commission, which sent guidance on pronoun usage to its 100,000 drivers. https://t.co/mCK2nztTNR

Once more for the people in the back...if you’ve got budget for craft beers & fancy cocktails, you’ve got budget for mocktails & other non-alcoholic options.

Anecdote from a bartender at tech company holiday parties: half of the partygoers are looking for something non-alc.

When introducing a speaker, I use their formal title. Regardless of gender.

A recent study on how often men use a doctor's title to introduce them in formal clinical meetings:
- When introducing women: 49%
- When introducing men: 72%

I'm taking a look at the photos on our Careers page today, and thinking about the message they send to job applicants. #BetterAllies #Inclusion #Allyship

Before an interview, I send the questions I'll ask to the candidate. To help them prepare and be ready to shine during the interview. #SetThemUpForSuccess #Allyship #Inclusion #BetterAllies

So much to learn from @Kate_Jenkins_ about this crucial inquiry: couldn’t be more timely

[Lee Constable 🔥 @Constababble]

Greta Thunberg told us to act as if our house were on fire.

Australia, our house literally IS on fire. Let's do what we can for right now but let's not lose sight of the massive changes we need to make urgently for the bigger picture.

APA welcomes singular “they” ~

"Writers should use singular “they”: (a) when referring to a generic person whose gender is unknown or irrelevant to the context and (b) when referring to a specific, known person who uses “they” as their pronoun."

@Constababble Charge for what work you do! It places value on the work that you and many other women in STEM do 🙌

[Dr Francesca Maclean @flmaclean]

@DrHeffo Also, organizations are not all created equal with their funds - charge on a sliding scale of willingness and ability to pay! 💰🙏 i.e. low SES schools are free, private orgs have to pay $$

[Dr Francesca Maclean @flmaclean]

@DrHeffo This captures my speaker fee philosophy:
