@Mandy_Kerr @charis Thank you for this #lifehack! 👄

@MelissaKaulfuss Not even specific to junior devs – applies to any of us struggling in a new role where there’s so much to learn and constant feelings of Imposter Syndrome! (In case it’s not obvious, this is very much me these days.)

@SwitchSharonOn @SydTechLeaders Not the final! There is one more planned. 🙂

@gilmae I wonder if that’s the guy @frankarr told me about..:

@frankarr @gilmae He’s ADORABLE. I shall never cast aspersions on Pokétragics again.

---

@mmastertheone It looks like you’re building my kitchen. 😂

---

Awww, thank you @halans for the lovely photo of me and @Mandy_Kerr from #wds18 last week! https://t.co/S93m5TZrxj

---

@RebeccaGillie @TheWeekUK Thanks – it’s all right. The quote was just written a *long* time ago and is mostly aimed at kids. If I were commenting to adults, I would be stronger in condemning his repugnant views.

---

@starbuxman You are amazing, and Tammie and Kimly are so lucky to have you in their lives! Proud to call you my friend. You’re going to be a fantastic parent. Hope I get to meet Kimly someday!

---

Huh. I got quoted in @TheWeekUK… with an FAQ answer I wrote more than 20 years ago, predominantly aimed at children. I wish they’d emailed me for something better! https://t.co/aN1dGwNmGh

---

@mmastertheone That’s fantastic!

Seeing Scott Walker lost in Wisconsin brought a big smile to my face. Good riddance.

Honestly, I couldn’t care less about a stupid horse race. But an occasion to finally wear my new crinoline in public? Okay. 🍒❤️ https://t.co/7OD4zY9Ur4 https://t.co/oIRkXh6bAM

Ugh. I got a lovely & unexpected award a few years back from a group I’m in, and I heard through the grapevine that a supposed friend was griping about it. It hurt. What a petty thing to do. @Mandy_Kerr is such a generous force in our community, and a bigger person than I am. ❤️ https://t.co/xOdxO9bglr

Thanks @randomknits for the flower. It’s the hit of the day. 😍 https://t.co/TnQBzbrSrj

Now and then. Four years ago @lemon_lime and I won Best Dressed Couple! ❤️ https://t.co/dMB9RbFQrW

---

@lemon_lime Wait, was that for the race or for your outfit?!

---

@lemon_lime WHAAAAAT.

---

Huh. Do tech meetups in Sydney really pay $100+ to a venue to host? I can maybe see that for a vendor-run event, but not one staffed by volunteers like @SydTechLeaders. 🤔

---

@SydTechLeaders Thanks everyone. To be clear, @SydTechLeaders has been going for years and never had to pay for a venue. We are working on 2019 events and I was surprised when a local place quoted me a rate card today. Just wanted to calibrate my level of indignant outrage appropriately. 😉

---

@SydTechLeaders And no, I’m not gonna reveal the source of the subtweet. HIGH ROAD, BABY. 😂

---

@simonwaight @SydTechLeaders @MSFTReactor They’ve already reached out. 😉 Thank you though!

---

@jonoabroad @SydTechLeaders @Atlassian 😂 Seems that way sometimes, but not all!

---

@LizlingC I agree it’s not free for them. That’s why we list them as venue sponsor and try to make sure they get attention from attendees. I’ve just rarely seen it passed on to volunteer, non-vendor driven groups.

---

@MWatsonSYD1 @mootpointer @SydTechLeaders @MSFTReactor Ha! @mootpointer literally offered to connect us about 20 min ago. 😊 Will be in touch…

Everybody likes the magic shoelaces! The Snook got them for me at the toy shop in Leura some years ago. It does look like they’re available online though! https://t.co/kuq92br5fH

This. Is. Awesome. And I reckon you can even make an argument that, for some of us, badass lady pirates are very inspirational and relevant when it comes to managing teams of technical folks. 😉 Thanks @johnbarton and @HecateApp!! https://t.co/YILfTEDYAS
