@npmichael @kpottermn It was the gleeful smugness that really got me. Nothing like watching a burly white man unmask with a ‘what-are-you-gonna-do-about-it-make-me’ expression in the face of a too-kind flight attendant just trying to do their job - to make my stomach turn…

I’m currently on @Delta flight 2555 to Detroit. People started boarding without masks. Apparently a baby judge in Florida overturned the @TSA mask mandate and it hit the news about 25 minutes ago.

This country is wild. Nobody here gives a sh*t about their neighbor - or workers, I guess.

So now half of the flight who is complying with @delta’s stated policy are masked - and we, including the poor, exposed flight attendants - are on a flight with a bunch of unmasked, coughing, celebrating patriots and a smug pilot safe in his cockpit. Great. Awesome.

@larsleafblad @MSPBJnews @blacktechtalent @MattSwenson @Schornack @cmduffy What a cool group! I’m so excited to be included, thrilled for the chance to high-five a few good friends and even more psyched make friends out of the honorees I haven’t yet met!

PSA: We're going for between 30-60% effort back at work today. All with tea and a cozy blanket.

Ending 2021 pretty unceremoniously, with four kids at home, because - hi! - we're still in a pandemic. Pray for me to be asleep by nine!

@nausheena Oh. Tied for cringey: I was telling my team that there were typos on a slide. This was while that slide was being presented to a client. Yikes.

'What is the most post-apocalyptic thing you've ever done?' for 100. 'That time when I took my children to a gutted department store and lined up with thousands of other parents for inoculation against a deadly virus.' And I would do it again.

Every time I get a Microsoft Teams invite, I die a little inside. Seriously, why is anyone still using that in year 2 of a pandemic?

@larsleafblad @DianaKHawley I got advocate - even though I really really tried to answer questions that would get me a different answer!

@smburns I agree that liberal arts degrees are good for the collective. I just don't think liberal arts degrees are a practical investment for the individual (i.e. anyone who doesn't have a family safety net).

Every time I go to an event like parents' night at school with all these other old parents, I feel so adult. It's so dissonant.

@larsleafblad You can send them my way any time, friend! Our team is frequently hiring + we're lucky to be building a new way of working together that values people, rest, creativity + excellence. We've found ourselves in a position where we are lucky recipients of the great resignation.
