    RT @anne_theriault: I feel like a billion have already figured this out, but I realized tonight while reading the Chamber of Secrets to my…

    @merxplat @NatDudley @frankarr Unfortunately the only info I have is what’s been published. Sorry…

    @darthted Not the view from the retirement house?

    RT @6Gems: Also can we nix tech conference tshirts in 2019? I don’t want anymore conference shirts. Ever.

    Her description of being humiliated at that final party in front of her colleagues and peers… Horrifying yet sadly familiar. Ugh. I hope these guys get taken down. https://t.co/eXGLRw4erM

    @soxyface OR I could make my own. 😉

    Yes to this whole thread. Sleep is incredibly important, and too many tech folks don’t get enough (and oddly think it’s somehow a badge of honour?!). https://t.co/jtkg4lkont

    @jonoabroad @nothergeek I spoke at an event for soon-to-be tech grads earlier this year, and one of the Q’s they asked was “how intense is it in the industry?” I’m like, “It’s as intense as you make it.” But actually it turns out …

    @jonoabroad @nothergeek That a previous speaker had told them they needed to be working 24-7, have a side hustle, etc. They hadn’t even started and they were already preparing to burn out. I was so mad at that person for normalising that shit.

    @busbub DAMMIT. I still haven’t hit the Christmas bus lottery yet this year.

    Greatest accomplishment as a manager for the past 6 months: teammate gave me a Gryffindor Christmas present, correctly guessing my Hogwarts house without being told. ❤️🦁

    @mattallen @johnbarton Well, what house would you have put me in? I can’t support you as AWS Sorting Hat without seeing if you meet the bar.

    @SydTechLeaders 👊🍍

    Dear Twitter – what do you do if your amazing gorgeous clever mermaid of a friend is marrying an unscrupulous Slytherin? Hypothetically.

    @mmastertheone As in, he told me he thought I’d be in Hufflepuff. ME. HERMIONE. IN HUFFLEPUFF. Therefore, I must assume evil.

    @hannahyanfield @mmastertheone I’m not a Hufflepuff, but @i386 is. He’ll be proud to claim you.

    @merxplat @NatDudley Hmm. I asked my colleague @frankarr who pointed me to some public info: https://t.co/xIXRg7Y2vU and https://t.co/dbGE5FMq53 and https://t.co/ELcMwDbsGE and https://t.co/fX0bkOZwdq

    Made Nuts & Bolts and Hello Dolly bars for work tomorrow… (Why yes, my house *does* smell amazing, thanks.) https://t.co/10fAe2oWyV

    I would’ve thought that using words like “mermaid” and “Slytherin” would’ve tipped people off that I was joking, but apparently not on Twitter. Unclench, folks. It’s the silly season. https://t.co/atbExjjpcW

    RT @BilgeEbiri: What if your definition of “success” includes “not having to get up at 4 a.m.”? https://t.co/qvQcywPZ6O

    My reward for braving the shops: the Snook baked a Lemon Poppyseed Buttermilk Drizzle Cake. 😍🍋🍰 https://t.co/kgeATO2A0N https://t.co/M5lyhcCHyS

    @DreamingMetal It was invented for brownies, but I’ve also used it for lasagna and lots of other stuff. 🙂 https://t.co/4H61cgJ8eD

    @gilmae @randomknits As you should be. (This shit is gooooood.)

    You know what’s fun? Trying to order falafel for 45 people on a Sunday night.

    @DreamingMetal It’s more for folks who like the crispy edge bits, which is us!

    Falafel procured! And there was much rejoicing.

    @gojkoadzic I have almost the exact same photo! Lovely place. 😂

    @morgan_gary My husband introduced me to this mystery via Reddit – so nuts!

    Hey @IIBA – my membership has been expired for 4+ years. My account has just been migrated to your new system, where I can find no way of actually deleting my account. Can you please assist? That’s a thing people need to be able to do.

    This is all well and good when you’re totally grey, but it sucks if it’s salt-and-pepper. I made the decision to stop dyeing mine this year, but I’ll admit I’m still torn on it. I work in an industry where older women are incredibly rare. 🙁 https://t.co/SPKNzoWyGu

    I know I’m supposed to think this is a bad idea, but I’m having flashbacks to Boone’s Farm Wild Island in college. I will definitely try it. #sorrynotsorry 🍷🍍❤️ https://t.co/Ksd3SPJc82

    @NickyWill100 I’m so sorry to hear it, Nicky. My condolences to you and your family. 💜

    @joneaves Mine really likes Lambrusco and soda.

    Supposed to be in the Domain seeing Paul Kelly, but it’s pouring. ☹️ Instead we’re finishing off the Roger Moore years… https://t.co/gjIwqRVldm https://t.co/FuqJeo9gHs

    Wait, this one’s about destroying Silicon Valley? I might have a new favourite Bond…

    @samnewman She’s AMAZING. I need to work more hoods and backless jumpsuits into my wardrobe.

    Getting on a list like this is legit one of my life goals. https://t.co/D57ZPndZth

    How do you do, fellow kids? 😂❤️ #madeinthe90s https://t.co/iAmvFMFsGI https://t.co/ANPghfXDTX

    @mattallen He’s annoyed he didn’t have an appropriate era baseball cap. (He couldn’t find my old ND one, which is around here somewhere…)

    RT @KenJennings: No one in history has ever just stopped eating Chex Mix. Either you run out of Chex Mix, or you die.

    Merry Christmas and happy holidays! #bepeculiar @amazonwebservices https://t.co/4sF1Zs9Nmx https://t.co/iGLlk9zCAc

    @LizlingC Sure, but the ratio of times when it’s actually useful vs times when it’s an annoying dead end that doesn’t even reference the original source is like 1:10,000.

    @lathiat Yeah, I’m talking about personal use. I know there’s a Chrome extension that blocks them, but it just visually hides them. You end up with pages with 2 results on them, which is annoying.

    @The_McJones Please let @SydTechLeaders know when you find out, because we’re moving to the former for our meetups next year.

    @DuchessFounder Thank you!! ❤️

    Flower crowns = best Christmas party activity EVER. L @ Arygle Bar https://t.co/RmMNdMiekT

    TIL wearing a homemade dress with your company’s logo all over it is a great conversation starter at the Christmas party. 😂 (“HEY, YOU’RE THAT #frocktober GIRL!!”)

    Earlier in the night: always the Prom Queen and King. ❤️ @rdrkt https://t.co/vZN6YYW1lF https://t.co/wvLzHzA0e9

    The Snook’s Christmas party is tomorrow, and the theme is “Made in the 90s.” He found his first cellphone and charged it up for the first time in nearly 20 years. ❤️ #dontcallit https://t.co/2939uEafGb https://t.co/yZbvvbBeb0

    The Snook is cleaning his man-bag from the 90’s. (Seriously.) “People are just going to think I’m a hipster, FROM NOW!” he frets.

    @glenngillen He thinks so! He had it in Sydney and thinks he took it to London with him when he met me.

    RT @jenrigatoni: All this time Ariana grande was actually the one with big dick energy

    More spelunking through our collection of 1990’s gear. “How are you going to carry all this?” “THAT’S WHAT THE MAN BAG IS FOR!” 😍 https://t.co/mX2f1VS0R4 https://t.co/tju0pUyzkE

    @nothergeek In translucent plastic, because the 90’s. 🙂
