I break this prime directive constantly on accident. It’s just … if you and I ✨ vibe ✨?? Well… You are (also) some flavor of mentally ill. Which is fine! Ideal, even. We might not know what flavor yet, but if you hang around me long enough, we will figure it out eventually

More people should talk about this - how to negotiate and price your work.

*me thinking about how we should have groups of people who negotiate for their friends* *me realizing that I just invented unions*

Whenever I have a friend help me negotiate a contract or something, they consistently get better results ($ + work-wise) than I do. I think it's because my way leads to negotiating price + work, but theirs negotiates more "what I can I get for the price". (approaches in the replies)

To the person who replied with "I can't believe nobody has commented 'nice ass' yet" and then immediately deleted, glad you realized it's not okay to post that on a photo of a 12 year old but what the fuck, man? [contains quote post or other embedded content]

It would be the absolute worst if so many teslas started getting vandalized that insurance companies would no longer insure them, making them really difficult to own, causing their sales numbers to go down and stock prices to drop. That would be truly awful and I'd never want to see that happen.

Why order potatoes from AliExpress?

Isn't it funny how being burned out also means you have no energy to apply to other jobs while being unhappy where you're employed currently? 🙃

So many strangers have complimented me on my shirt today

Open source business models are hard. A question I often get it why is it even open source? Here are some of my thoughts on that, and reasons why

I had a fab time speaking at Women in Tech, Notts! My talk “The Ripples from Pebbles” was written from the depths of my creative dreamer heart. I’m glad it resonated so much 🥹 The audience was engaging+supportive, esp with my croaky throat 💛 guess I’m feeling ready to speak at more events in 2025 👀

If, after quitting your job, you hear or get notified about your ex-leader doing these : Speaking negatively about your departure Undermining your decision by criticizing you, your new role or company Attempting to make you feel guilty Spreading resentment throughout the organisation Taking the resignation as a personal attack Prioritizing their own interests over those of the team Being absent or unavailable for the team during the transition Spreading gossip about you Delaying or writing vague performance appraisals or recommendations for you Displaying an “it’s all about me” attitude Failing to acknowledge their own mistakes or shortcomings Blaming others for failures or problems within the team These behaviours scream insecurity, selfishness, and a lack of confidence in building and retaining talent. They crush team morale, erode trust, and send a clear message to the rest of the team: ‘You’re disposable too.’

One of my toxic ADHD traits is that if paying a bill requires me to enter too much information, I just don't. Usually they then sign me up for this cool service called "collections" where they fill out all the info for me and all I have to do is enter my card number. It's very convenient. 11/10.
