I logged in. I saw. I amplified. And now, I’m going to sign out and get back to pro-actively safeguarding my sanity. 😉 It WAS nice to see you all, though. I’ve missed my Twitter peeps. 💜

Hmm… just spitballing here… Maybe we DON’T SUPPORT the founders of a platform originally developed to rate college women as “Hot or Not”, in leading development of the new “meta-verse”? washingtonpost.com/technolog…

2am me hopped on to share a cute pic of my pillow thief dog. 4am me is now researching “social epidemiology”. THIS is why I can’t have nice things (aka Twitter app).

Um… “Fake morning person” is now my favorite description ever. 😅☕️
Ugh. We are “falling back” with #DaylightSavingTime in an hour. Do I stay up and use the extra time, or do I sleep and get temporary superpowers as a fake morning person?

I still can’t get over the fact that my Engineering Director is a Black woman. This is the first time I’ve worked at a company that has someone that looks like me in a role I dream of filling one day & it’s lit an even bigger fire up under my ass. Representation matters 💜
