Catch me up: when/why did everybody start saying "stan"?
Ok, I'll buy that this comes from the Eminem song. (Which yes, I know, that was pre kid and shit.) But...i've never heard it used or seen int #here until a few months ago and now its omnipresent, so what was accelerator?
honestly, I blame @SlackHQ

Ok, BIG is on which means I’ll likely stay up too late. Penny Marshall’s other great movie. And speaking of great actresses who didn’t get the roles they deserved post 35, @Elizbethperkins is fantastic. Pretty much a flawless performance
I hate looking back at actresses of my or any generation and wondering ‘was it sexual harassment/abuse or just straight up industry sexism’ 🤬🤬🤬
But anyway, as good as Hanks performance was the movie wouldn’t have worked unless @Elizbethperkins wasn’t equally good. And back to the greatness of Penny Marshall, in both cases.

Has the autocorrect (in general and/or on the X) gotten more authoritarian or am I just blaming technology for my own failings?
As a dyslexic, spell checkers allowed me to, well, do my job. I was very fearful of autofill and am decently careful when dealing with words—and there are lots—that i struggle with. But I don’t bother to look at those I don’t. Except maybe now I must.
By “authoritarian” I mean going beyond the general “ducking” for “fucking” stuff and replacing non-swear words you’ve spelled correctly with other words

I have yet to see Green Book and this have no option about its merits but WILL EMPHATICALLY SAY, that this #99pi explaining the history is fab and bonus @thememorypalace is even better 99percentinvisible.org/episode/the-gr…
.@romanmars says that @thememorypalace is the best writer in radio and idk they might have to duke it out (and also @ScottCarrier57) but the last line of Nate’s piece made me cry. Heightened by listening to Roman’s first.
I know that’s two white guys weighing in on a key moment—passport, really—of Black history but if you listen I swear you will not be disappointed. Or you can come back and yell at us all here.

Some of the daft & unsolicited advice I’ve received over the years, from people who know significantly less about my illness & how it affects me than I do, but still, they have the answers!

#MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #MyalgicE #PwME #UnsolicitedAdvice #ChronicIllness #Disability
I should move out of (damp and mouldy) Scotland to a drier country - I’d lose my entire support network. I would no longer be eligible for UK disability benefits, and I won’t be eligible for social security in whichever country I move to. What will I do for money and support?
Take up meditation - I’ve tried, it makes me anxious. I have other methods of relaxation.

@AGB @kohenari Thanks for the recommendation. I'll try to thread something here. Obviously it will somewhat depend on the age of the kids, but here are some general guidelines /1
@AGB @kohenari * As you have surmised, they're going to hear about it and you are absolutely right they should hear about it from you. If they don't, then when they hear about it they will think they can't talk to you about it./2
@AGB @kohenari * Under no circumstances should you lie. Keep it simple and to known facts, but don't make stuff up. If you do, you are sending the message that you cannot be trusted on this topic. /3

#PublicServiceAnnouncement

In ANY type of criminal case, Rape, Assault, Robbery etc., a person can be convicted solely on the word of a complainant.

If you think that's not enough in a Rape case, you should be similarly concerned about every other type of criminal prosecution.
Until relatively recently in most US states, in order to prosecute rape cases there was an additional legal requirement of "Corroboration." This was only needed in rape cases. So in a robbery case, I could say you stole $1000 from me & that would be enough for a conviction.
But in a rape case, there had to be something more, for instance, an eyewitness. Clearly rape cases were the least likely to have this sort of "corroborating" evidence, by their very nature, so to require this extra proof was illogical & unfair.

 Lie: Kavanaugh said he “never attended a gathering like the one Dr. Ford describes in her allegation.”
Fact: Kavanaugh admitted that his calendars “show a few weekday gatherings at friends’ houses after a workout or just to meet up and have some beers. washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/…
