this sounds like a nightmare
with infinite ways to ping people, how does anyone track/sort (much less reply to) all the inbounds? It's crazy making.
Also this just seems like @SlackHQ setting itself up for endless stories about how its platform is used to sexually and racially harass people and...we have platforms for that.
That this didn't occur to them before really makes me wonder how many women and/or POC were on the engineering team...

Have spent a not inconsiderable about of time over the last few years trying to discern the divide between those who care deeply about (any!) superhero movie and those who are like, ok that was fun (or not). 1/?
Leans (dramatically?) male and skews (somewhat less dramatically,maybe ) younger, but the real thing I don’t get is the predominance among male political journos which at times seems totally off the charts? Kthnxbai
And I just don’t know what to make of the pairing of political/analytical journalism and extreme, not-just-escapism, fandom of superhero movies; these things would seem to be in at least some opposition.

Again, not talking about escapism.

The SFUSD board meeting tomorrow night promises to be an epic shit show, even by SFUSD standards.

Will they boot Collins for her tweets that have most city officials calling for her to resign? sfchronicle.com/education/arti…
Also 👀😱😬 Image
well this meeting is going about as you would expect sfusd.edu/about-sfusd/bo…

1/ SF's Unidos en Salud—grassroots Latino activists + UCSF docs—was quick to ID racial disparities, provide testing, food banks, and so helped—maybe more than any other factor—keep the city's COVID rates low. Must read piece by @moatman and @julia_lurie motherjones.com/politics/2021/…
2/ I live around the corner from the food bank operation that Unidos ed Salud and the Carnaval operation runs a few times a week. It is truly epic in scope, helping so many stay fed this year. motherjones.com/politics/2021/…
3/ The approach of Unidos en Salud, using trusted community members, supplying wrap-around services has also meant that the Latino population of the Mission/greater SF is far *more* likely to embrace vaccines than national averages. motherjones.com/politics/2021/…

1/ Just finished Allen v. Farrow, which was as gut-wrenching—especially to sexual assault victims, like me—as I knew it would be. As someone who’s followed this case over my lifetime, I’m ~same age as Soon-Yi, I have thoughts.
2/ I’ve already displayed my bias. But it is not bias. It is knowledge. But you don’t need a personal history of sexual assault to see what Allen himself put in his films all along.
3/ I think he’s a genius (or was) on some levels. But geniuses can be monsters. We know this, but we struggle with it. But I knew, the first time I saw Manhattan, as a teen, that something was deeply deeply off. And that young women were being gaslit as Mariel was in the film.

why is it so hard for so many men to properly wear a mask
is it about condoms
why do i think that the men who can never wear a mask properly are the same guys who will lecture you about the proper ways to park or code

What are the things your parents/schools left you totally unprepared to do?

Me: basic home repair (idgaf about cars, but that too), financial planning
As a math-impaired Quaker journalist, I suck at financial planning on a Vulcan chess level. I'm fearful, guilty AND suspicious.
I finally set up a living trust. Not everything is in it, but... And my long-suffering friend is walking me through consolidating rando bits into some index funds.

Have a great CPA who does my taxes. Worth every dime.

I hate every iota of it all. Elevated heart rate hate.
