Retirement plan: open a natural burial cemetery/park that encourages people to walk amid trees & sunlight, considering how death & life are connected. Grounds to include gardens, w/ classes on beekeeping & botany, a small cafe w/ picnic baskets to visit a loved one's plot.

@Target , it is super not cool to pull the Pride line! The designs are fun, joyful, affirming, and beautiful. Please reconsider.

3+ years into a pandemic, the general public is still generally confused about what to do when they test positive for COVID19.

So let me walk you through what I, an infectious disease epidemiologist public health nurse, am doing since I tested positive on a rapid antigen today.

Hi friends. I have a friend who is looking for a mentor as she embarks on her job hunt to be a dev. Are you a Black woman in tech who is self-taught (and doesn't have an undergrad degree) who wants to connect with this rad human being?

RTs appreciated!

I heard someone say, “we treat the adoption industry as if it’s there to provide wannabe parents with children, and not children with safe homes.” and when I tell you I’ve never had a world view change so fast

Hi, if you are bullying a CHILD who is suicidal just because you don't like her dad (and who is probs a big reason the child's mental health isn't great), you can unfollow me immediately, thanks.

hey remember that fantasy book where there's a genderfluid protagonist who feels both male and female and there's a bunch of butch lesbians and transmascs and there's an anti-colonial anti-military commentary and also there's a trans man who retires at the end to be a grandfather

Just got home from a harrowing experience and it's haunting me.... This is a long thread...

This evening I took my mom on an errand, and when we arrived in the parking lot there were four white male police officers surrounding two Black teen girls. 1/16

Listen, I may work in tech now, but the liberal arts live in my BONES and I am LOVING this

saw ted chiang give a talk yesterday where he basically told a bunch of ai bros, "we are nowhere near having real ai, and what we call ai today is just a tool of capitalism. i don't fear ai, i fear capitalism" and the ai bros got their feelings hurt. it was great.

As someone who LOVES tech and LOVES coding, I am officially giving everyone permission to pursue a tech career purely for the money.

Seriously, go get that cash.

I bought myself fancy grapes, as a treat, and now I'm sitting here with fancy grapes and wishing I had a cookie to eat instead.
