    @realtimshady You came *thisclose* on the Oscar Contest this year! Both you and Molly tied with 9 correct, but her guess of 55 was closer to the # of dead celebs (over 90!). Next time!! ❤️


    RT @mavi888uy: Tomorrow I will be interviewing @web_goddess, a super experienced hiring manager. We will be talking about how is to work at…

    And the winner is…. Molly Manns! Molly has won this year’s Oscar Contest in a nail-biter with Tim Harris. Both correctly predicted 9 of the award winners, but Molly’s guess of 55 celebrities for the “In Memoriam” section was much closer than Tim’s guess of 33. (The actual count was over 90!)

    CONGRATS MOLLY! ❤️ The Rose family sock monkeys are all yours…

    🚨 You’ve only got like 8 hours left to get your picks in for this year’s Oscar Contest! Remember, whoever gets the most correct will win a set of custom @SchittsCreek Rose family sock monkeys! https://t.co/yyq9nYsahs https://t.co/sMzsxd92YL


    @charrett Pretty sure there is? I’ve deleted the ones I don’t use. Let me check.


    @charrett This is on my phone, but it should be there on desktop too… https://t.co/cj5njrkiSd


    @charrett Haha, yeah, MUCH easier to spot on mobile! I’d have missed that too. 😂

    (I also need some volunteers to count how many folks are featured in the “In Memoriam” montage, as I’ll be asleep during the ceremony…)


    20km ride around Schloss Nymphenburg and through some neighbourhoods that were new to me!


    Photos from today’s long ride around Schloß Nymphenburg and through Friedenheim, Laim, Moosach, and more. And yes, I passed an actual Goggomobile driving down the road!! 😂🚴‍♀️

    @heidihelfand That’s amazing! I actually would be interested to read it, or at least hear what conclusions you came to.

    @heidihelfand @markwarschauer That’s fascinating, especially as I’m about to kick off a German as a Second Language course that will be conducted entirely virtually.
