My toxic trait is dropping well below the speed limit when someone starts tailing me.

I think we need a national holiday for Zoom hosts that end the meeting immediately to save us all from the awkward lingering that happens as we hunt for the "Leave Meeting" button

Research has shown that we (society) tend to attribute the successes of dominant groups to hard work and their failures to bad luck, whereas we attribute the successes of marginalized folks to luck and their failures due to lack of hard work. Meritocracy is a complete fallacy.

The higher your TV is mounted, the less respect I have for you.

Understanding the problem space and coming up with a creative solution takes time. Don't tell people they're overthinking - they're just trying to solve problems.

Productivity Tip #34:

Save yourself precious seconds by signing every company card with "Happy Birthday! All the best!".

If it's actually their birthday, perfect - ya nailed it.

If it's not their birthday it comes off as a hilarious witty commentary on office culture.

I want to start a new business where I just give you Halloween costume ideas.

Allison could be helping me farm high runes in D2R, but instead, she's working on her reddish farm in Olive Town. Sad.

@leedangerous So close James. We can't be friends anymore.

[Benny Lin @helloimbenny]

If you can correctly identify both the brand and flavour of these chips from this blurry ass tiny image, we should be friends.

[Benny Lin @helloimbenny]

@KatePrescesky yeah - it is a little weird.

Tired of hearing about white dudes and space. Unless your tweet starts with "Intergalactic" and ends "Planetary," get out of my feed.

@lburwash It's what I call chips before noon to avoid judgement. The "snack" part is to signal to folks "hey, I have some self-control. I'll leave some crumbs in the bag so I don't eat it all"

[Benny Lin @helloimbenny]

Didn't want to dirty another dish, so I briefly thought about putting my breakfast snack chips into a dog bowl.

How's everyone else doing?

@PavelASamsonov I would suggest learning the skillset that interests you most 🤓 - nothing worse than learning something you have very little interests in
