Lobbying firms.
If youâre operating in this space, youâve undoubtedly been contacted by them.
Business suits. Fancy titles. Lots of acronyms. War stories.
And a $20k month MINIMUM.

Too many startups paying TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS A MONTH for what ends up being MINIMAL ASSISTANCE.
Sure, Lobbying firms have their place, but for many early-stage CEOâs, that money is better used on engineering talent.
Whatâs the solution?

For most startups, national-level âGovernment Affairsâ (GA) means helping with:
- Meetings in Washington (Congress and at the Executive Branch, 1-4 times/yr)
- Help w/policy, incl submitting âcommentsâ to Agencies
- Applying for grants, etc.
- Congressional visits & press

Ketogenic diets have neurotransmitter-balancing effects. Let's do a short thread on one of my fav NTs called GABA. đ§”
GABA makes you chill out. It relaxes your mind and reduces your sense of being overwhelmed. It reduces anxiety. It helps you digest your food and actually improves gut motility and, thus, gut health because it's used to keep your parasympathetic nervous system humming along.
It also helps reduce a little something called #neuroinflammation, which, if you have any kind of mood disorder, might very likely be an issue for you.

because coming out of #retired that means #braindead as whoever is #socialmediamanager floods #TwitterFiles with #NicolaBulley, this I also find really sad, so so sad for those who like poor #MollyRussell and those who mare reaching out for @CruseSupport as a senior
I don't know who needs to hear this, but the restriction of carbohydrates does not = an eating disorder (1/6) #realtalk #therapist #mentalhealthcounselor
It is an evidence-based and strategic nutritional intervention to rescue mood, cognitive functioning, and basically all-around metabolic function. (2/6)
Some people will need to restrict carbohydrates to treat chronic illnesses of the brain and the body. And they don't need misinformed mental health counselors scaring them and telling them they are going to develop an eating disorder. (3/6)

I love the #StepN community and I've met some incredible people both online and offline.
I've even met some of the team and they were amazing too.

The people who worked in my dept with me experienced second-hand trauma from my work experience.

They saw the resistance to my leadership. They heard people undermining me and lying on me. Because the system was so punitive and hierarchical, they watched me get lynched every day. They were expected to do their jobs as their supervisor was attacked and abused daily.

Many of them couldnât help me bc they didnât have the power to help me. Like me, I believe people were trying to process what was happening.
How were such behaviors allowed in the workplace?
Was someone, anyone going to address it directly so it could stop?

Next week I am stepping foot in the building where I was dept chair for the first time since I left that position in 2020.
I am connecting to the postdocs in the program I direct. Seeing them will bring me such joy after the darkness & hurt of that environment. 1/

I have avoided physically being around people who caused harm for as long as I could.
Next week is the week to confront this.
To look in the eyes of people who did nothing.
I may even see an oppressor or two.
I am preparing myself for this moment. It is so real.

Will I be sad? Angry? Will a smell or sound trigger me?

What you mean you need support from ARMY. ARMY is here for BTS not for other groups. Let their fandoms support them we will support BTS point blank periodt. I will never forget the ridicule and bullying that went and still goes on today when it comes to us and the boys+
But you want us to leave our priorities behind and support your favorites when you don't even respect us and our favorites?! Like make it make sense! The math is not mathing! I can guarandamntee you nobody was telling Groups like Eggso and b*g b*ang to give other groups a chance+
When they were dominating all the charts in korea and Japan. No one asked eggsols and vipers to vote for and push other groups. Nobody was policing yall activities even when they were harmful af to other fandoms and groups but now you wanna police ours?! Like what?!+
I want yall to understand something real quick ARMY is literally the most amazing thing to have happened to to fandom and pop culture in the longest time imo. Do you realize that we literally tell entertainment industry to f*ck themselves all the time?! We singlehandedly fought+
For BTS recognition and for them to be able to have enough space to show their talent and largely managed to bypass xenophobia and racism (although we are still fighting against a lot of this sh*t) we carved out enough breathing room so that the boys and many others like them+
Do not get suffocated by the industry. Whether other kpop fandoms or other stars who benefit from our fight admit it or not we really established lots of precedents and I can't help but applaud for that. I will fight anyone who dares to refute this! Years from now we will go+

Let's have a #RealTalk moment. In recent years there has been a degeneration of the software bounty industry. Focussing on MSFT here (but it's not exclusive to their program). We had a lot of, "not a boundary", "that thing is not in scope", nerfing the payouts into the ground 1/n
, one of my favourites, "this app has live updates so we don't assign CVE's" and finally on-prem critical infra like Exchange and Sharepoint aren't eligible at all (lol wut, come again?)
I'm honestly baffled by this, for example look at this RCE for teams => github.com/oskarsve/ms-te⊠marked as "Important/Spoofing" (maybe like 3k bounty?) but at the same time p2o paying out 200k there was a similar story for Slack RCE
What can we do to help stop child marriages? #RealTalk

Sometimes I ask myself if I have become that bitter Full Professor. Stupid academic crap gets on my nerves and my tolerance for games is gone.

If academia was my spouse, I would have kicked that joker to the curb YEARS ago. No person should be in a relationship with someone who says one thing and does another. Academia has been a gaslighter. 2/
Academia attracts some really unethical folks. I wasnât ready for that. Iâm talking about folks who profess morals and values as they practice racism, sexism, and ageism.
Guess what though? Nobody calls it out. Academia is a place where there arenât always real rules. 3/

Just a few thoughts on all the folks & corps that want to start new scholarships for URVM DVM students...
Scholarships are great; yes, they increase access.
The rub is that *everyone* seems to want their *own* scholarship program rather than pooling resources.

Hardly anyone of y'all have deep enough pockets to play this money game in a manner that really, substantially reduces $$ burden for a critical mass of URVM students. #realtalk

We all justify this by saying things like, "I know this $5-10K isn't much, but every little bit helps."
Yeah, ok, but let's talk about the wasted resources on overlapping administrative burdens.

@flawlessflop @SeanLindo @mrsakwood @danyatma They're biologically adults, & legal adults. Biological adulthood is defined basically by having passed puberty, esp. postpubertal ( able to fertilize or conceive, & generally finished major growth spurts ). Legal adulthood is more arbitrarily defined & variable. What you are
@flawlessflop @SeanLindo @mrsakwood @danyatma focusing on, flawlessflop/marie, is mental/brain maturity, but, forget Google's overly generic bullshit, the prefrontal cortex of the human brain develops well into the 40s, by which time most women are on the threshold of menopause. medicalxpress.com/news/2010-12-bâŠ
@flawlessflop @SeanLindo @mrsakwood @danyatma obviously, raising consent age to damned near menopause would be ludicrous from a biological & reproductive normalcy standpoint. What is more, mental maturity, even brain maturity, can vary greatly from person to person, including age of maturation, ranging anywhere from 15 to 25
So before we get into the fun stuff, we need to have some #realtalk. As you know GC is in the midst of significant change. Itâs a big reason why I was MIA for Zozo - the 1st time in years TW teed it up and I wasnât there. Not my intention, but it happened.
To those that reached out in recent weeks with messages, concerns for my whereabouts or questions about the status of my liver: thanks. I read them all, and they meant a ton.
Where things go from here remains to be seen. Thereâs a strong chance the future involves a hiatus for me and this account. But for now, weâre here. No matter how things play out, know that there was no chance I was going to miss Tiger Bleeping Woods defending the green jacket.
