@SteveDeaceShow Can we add an option for "It depends," "None of the above," and an optional fill-in?

[PhDMaraMom @PhDMaraMom1]

@ShelbyLGraves I know someone. Me.

@conservmillen In high school I had three jobs at once : pizza restaurant, thrift store, and bakery. I was an executive director of a food pantry and kitchen. A teacher for close to 11 years. Now I raise 2 babies while getting my doctorate as a research assistant.

@ginacarano Our arrows will black out the sun.
Then we'll fight in the shade.

@AnnKEmery I’m definitely checking this out. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and resources!👏

Loving the feathers and fire of my silk mama head scarf. @Angietherose my sister and supporter. I love your designs and how they make my tired eyes shine!

It’s ok to need.
It’s ok to ask.
It’s ok to receive.
Dammit.

Hard practice for those of us who attach our value to being givers. But so worth it. 🧡

I’m in this creative place, helped along by nesting, steroids, and nervous energy, to capture different aspects of our new normal as a family transitioning from 3 to 4, in the midst of a pandemic, while pursuing my doctorate and soul calling. Let’s get sketch’in...

Sketch—->>>>——Design.

This morning I got a steroid shot in my bum to help our son into this world (((on Friday!!!!))). Literally a kick in the tail to get moving on a new project for my assistantship!

Just sketch’in. Thank you @BreneBrown for your reminder and @makercitychurch Pastor Hunter for your encouragement as well!

@austinkleon 100% agree. Be HERE now. Where’s your “now” or presence to be present?

[Austin Kleon @austinkleon]

I feel like we were given this cultural chance to just shut it down and take a minute pause catch breath gape into the void a bit and instead we’ve rushed to fill the void with livestreams and podcasts and zooms calls and more shit I’m supposed to keep track of?

Just finished enjoying the Sketching Fireside Chat with @DataVizSociety . Thank you @AmyCesal @Katherine_Haugh @duncangeere @rasagy for sharing this experience! Sketching what I love...@TheSunsphere and @BreneBrown

[PhDMaraMom @PhDMaraMom1]

Very interesting to see the different angles of viz possible in responses.

[PhDMaraMom @PhDMaraMom1]

@AmyCesal @evergreendata @SAGE_Methods This is fantastic!!!!

Our group at University was inspired by
@beeonaposy's great and insightful graph on how the allocation of time changed when a woman has a baby. We decided to use @flowingdata's tutorials to animate it using D3.JS and here is the result!

[PhDMaraMom @PhDMaraMom1]

@beeonaposy Thank you for sharing this! I can’t wait to compare our experiences. It’s wonderful that visualizing this can inform those around us. I remember with our first child I didn’t know how I needed help. Now people can see it without having to ask!

[PhDMaraMom @PhDMaraMom1]

@97khanafer @flowingdata @beeonaposy This is inspiring, and validating. I’m currently in the pregnancy stage, due in June. I’d love to see how this plays out and compare.

At the UTK career fair this past week. I had to tell a few fellow, younger-looking students that I was in fact attending the career myself and no I do not know where that booth is, no I am not someone who can sign you in! Lol #phdmom
