@ewarren Please help get science and arts funding back, women's rights over their own bodies, and take away the funding reins on the Iran War. We expect a lot, I know, but we need change.

@aeejazkhan That's insane, sign of a toxic culture and a toxic brain. How do people like that get to be CEOs? I swear to God there should be an IQ test, an EQ test, and some basic common sense and ethics applied to these guys BEFORE they start companies. Oh well. Dream on, Jeannine.

@DiaryofaSickGrl No it has always been super painful for me. They only suspect me of hypermobility ehlers-danlos but I'm definitely hyperflexible, which has led to arthritis in my neck and jaw.

@JoyceCarolOates I was done after one visit where a woman called my personal phone after I left the house in the morning after a shower to ask angrily, "How many towels did you use?" So weird. We did not go back and cancelled our stay and never tried it again.

@Amanda_Goodall I would also be happy if some of the jobs they are "replacing" (and not, say, just offshoting) were jobs that were dangerous - working at Hanford or Oak Ridge in radioactive cleanup, or mining, or janitorial work night shift. But...they're not.

@unusual_whales Just imagine if these companies spent the equivalent amount on something that helped the human race instead of draining its resources. Oh well, I guess.

[Jeannine Hall Gailey @webbish6]

@broadwaybabyto Yes! I haven't gotten covid yet. I wish I had started wearing better (not surgical) masks and using more air purifiers (and not felt ashamed to bring them to parties/book club like I always do now.) Oh, you don't have an air purifier? I'll bring my own!

[Jeannine Hall Gailey @webbish6]

@DylanoA4 Interesting. I was asked to start a book club in my neighborhood during the pandemic, by a winery manager. That book club is still going. I'm a writer, but the attendees are diverse - they seem to be reading challenging fiction and even poetry.

@DiaryofaSickGrl Yes. You know what I’m more worried about? A lot of other real problems.

[Jeannine Hall Gailey @webbish6]

@DiaryofaSickGrl All. This. All. The. Time.

[Jeannine Hall Gailey @webbish6]

@MrPitbull07 This is the nonsense that should get doctors and assistants fired. Too bad there are no repercussions for shit service in the healthcare industry.

[Jeannine Hall Gailey @webbish6]

@mariachong I mean, it's still five shots. That's a lot for a kid! (And one is a rabies immunoglobulin - fancy! We didn't have that when I was a kid!)

[Jeannine Hall Gailey @webbish6]

@LadyHouseOfLove @cybelethebest Yes, also some people like supporting local farms and farmers! They guess we should be shamed tho for lack of kids?

[Jeannine Hall Gailey @webbish6]

@OrevaZSN Where is my Rosy the Robot maid? And yes, mining and burger-flipping should be first priority before robots take our jobs say, writing or medicine. The people at the top of AI have terrible priorities? (See: data centers taking power and water from humans.)
