@justkelly_ok If you haven’t listened to the excellent Lolita Podcast by @jamieloftusHELP, she talks about Allen and Manhattan in one episode. Can recommend – excellent deep dive into the book, dramatisations, and culture of sexualising children. https://t.co/mRBnA1v1jK

You might think that moving to the other side of the world would mean that men would stop asking me to share my binders full of Aussie technical women looking for jobs. You would be wrong.

(In case the sarcasm isn’t clear, THERE ARE NO BINDERS.)

---

@jcnsingapore The great secret of the tech industry is that there are loads of talented women developers just desperate for new jobs, but the only way to find them is to ask another women to act as unpaid recruiter and spoonfeed their names to you, right? 😂

---

@darthted I enjoyed the recruiter today who was basically like, “I know you’re not looking, but here are ten .Net developer roles I’m recruiting for in Sydney if you want to, like, do my job for me.” I mean, dude. No part of that has any relevance to me.

@thebeebs Whoops. I wondered!

@FourRedShoes I see it, especially if she has a fringe too. 😂

---

@FourRedShoes Throw on an anklet and you got yourself a Snorkmaiden for sure!

---

@QuinnyPig Slight disagree on this one. I’ve seen (personally and through connections) lots of companies who acknowledge you’re worth more, but offer you less because it’s either all they can afford or the minimum they think you’ll accept. But it’s not your *worth*.

---

@QuinnyPig I don’t disagree with any of that. I’m just burnt from startups and social orgs that have explicitly cited their vision and mission as a reason candidates should accept massive pay cuts for the privilege of working for them. 🙁

TIL that Juicero for cocktails exists – https://t.co/s2x30GF1Bd – complete with DRMed flavour pods and a subscription service. Come on, tech industry. Really?! 🙄

---

@DivineOps Hmm. I disagree. I think of coaches as being experienced in particular field, and able to provide practical guidance on how to do the thing (like a sports coach). A good mentor shouldn’t just speak about their own exp, but guide mentee to solve problems for themselves.

Me: Hey, shine your phone light down my throat and see if it looks infected?
The Snook: YES!

Damn. Video call with doctor booked this morning. 🤒

---

Outcome: doctor thinks it’s viral and wants me to rest and not talk for five days.

ME. NOT TALK. FIVE DAYS. 😳

---

@mmastertheone Rodd is very amused by this state of affairs.

---

@misswired @stufromoz Apparently this is, like, the minimum. Normally German doctors prescribe like a week of bed rest for pretty much anything, my colleagues say.

4 – liver (not an offal fan), celery (DEVIL WEED), watermelon (never really cared for it), snails (but I think I tried them once and they were okay?). Honestly, this all seems like VERY normal food to me. I was a picky eater as a kid, but damn, evidently I’m not as an adult! https://t.co/yoItWROcJl

@steven_bryen HOW DO YOU NOT HAVE SCURVY STEVEN

---

@JessicaFGWrites I know you’re not supposed to judge picky eaters… but I confess I do. How are these people not sick constantly? That’s practically disordered eating, right?

---

@frconil Yes. I was waiting for the “chicken hearts” and “natto” and “durian” tbh. But, like, strawberries and tofu?
