  1. Is it really possible that a university can first begin requiring employees adopt a new (less flexible and more expensive) health insurance plan, and then, days later, announce that the newly elected trustee chair is partner at that very same insurance provider, without violating ethics? #AskingForAllMyFriends 😰 #AcademicLife #AmICrazy #IsThisNormalNow

  2. I'm developing a REAL PROBLEM with people who share voice notes or images instead of text.

    Example 1) Dr's receptionist sends me a looooooooong voice note of office noise, and somebody reading her a number, which she then repeats to me, quickly followed by a text that says "that's the authorisation number".

    Umm. OK. Why not just text me the number? Since you sent me a text anyway?

    Example 2) Neighbourhood trustees share all their communications in the Whatsapp group as images of text on a pretty background, so we can't copy numbers or addresses, or easily search for a particular message.

    When I query this, the head of the trustees tells me "just do an image search"

    And when I query that he sends me a screenshot of how to access media posted in the group.

  3. Why do I do this? I put a marker in the book I was reading, got up, went downstairs to get a bottle of cold water, came back upstairs to take my evening meds and now I don't want to

    I will be upset with myself in the morning for not taking them. I know this. And yet I am not taking those pills

  4. Currently writing a blog of all things. I'm not sure I'll ever publish it, but I'm organizing my thoughts about my current side-project as drafts on a blog.
    Am I trying to do the equivalent of rubber duck/teddy bear debugging with the entire process of writing an app?

  5. My pal Río must go to the vet clinic this morning for a minor op and have his teeth cleaned. He will have to have general anaesthesia so no breakfast for him. He has two small mongrel brothers but I don't want to give them their breakfast until Río has been collected by the vet nurse; Río is a sensitive boy and he'll think he is has done something wrong if they are fed and not him. So, here I am, sitting at my computer with no breakfast either otherwise they will all think I have forgotten them or they have been bad! [For the record though, I never deny them food as a punishment.] Am I nuts!?
