This is mind blowing. There are bots that search Twitter for phrases like "I want this on a T-shirt," take the image, and upload to custom merch sites. Everything done automatically 🤯 Apparently you shouldn't say you want art on merch when artist uploads.

Two images of the world. One is Baltimore City, United States of America. The other is Cape Town, South Africa. Can you guess which is which?

Hi, I'm HIRO. I'm a 29y/o SysAdmin. Growing up, I battled w mental illnesses for over a decade before I was diagnosed w a vascular malformation in my brain. I had brain surgery at 22, graduated college, & moved to 🗽 to find a life for myself beyond the label of DISABLED ♿ 1/
31 🎂 9 years ago, doctors weren't sure I'd make it past 22. Today, I'm thankful to say I've trampled my diagnosis, and many other obstacles since then. And so blessed to have you in my life, always being so kind and generous 🥰

Adults told me I'll never be able to hold down a full-time job, live independently, or be fully functioning member of society because of my brain injury.
I got my grad degree, moved to NYC, and got myself a career in tech w no technical background. And I did it "independently."
In San Francisco, it seems like you CAN leave the house to walk your dog, and hike/run/take walks as long as you keep 6 feet away from other people.

My mom upon seeing me: Wow. You’re so fashionable (?) I need to take a photo so you can post it on social media.
I guess now is as good a time as any to announce that I’m in my 3rd trimester and going to have a baby soon 😂🐣🤰🏻
I can't believe it's only been 2 years! 💍
So much has happened since 5/10/2019.
I quit my job to freelance, we got married, I moved out of NYC, there was a global pandemic, he switched jobs, he started grad school, we bought a house and paid it off in 10 months.
Onwards! 🚀
I can't decide what I should do about professional zoom calls starting with "So you're from Japan?" or "Your English is so good!"
Can we stop assuming every non-white person with non-white name wants comments on their English? We get othered enough. We don't need your help.
Twitter helped get me from an underpaid mid-20’s IT helpdesk engineer (who was so broke she wore a friend’s old suit dress to a holiday party) to a published author teaching AWS.
I’m so thankful for this platform and the friends I made through it. It’s my second home 🥺
For my 30th birthday, I put in my 2 week notice. I'm tired of fighting for respect as a disabled female minority in tech.
In 2 weeks, I'll be able to start working with

full-time while recovering, and it's honestly the best birthday present ever 😍
My lakeside home office is coming along nicely... 😍🙌 My only concern is that this only uses like 1/8th of the loft, so there's a lot of empty space... Need to figure out how to utilize the space better!

My eclipse 2024 view (I was trapped in a windowless room all day and night) 🌞🌑 My kids’ Chinese names together make up 宇宙🪐 (space) because my in-laws are atmospheric scientists and are super into space/atmosphere 😆 So a special space baby born on a special full eclipse day!

I was walking home when a couple came up and got really close to me. The guy lowered his voice and said "We saw that guy walking way too close to you so wanted to make sure you weren't alone."
The girl took my arm and asked "Where's your apartment? We'll walk you home." /
I got the chills from this. Girl gets stalked by a creeper, saw a group doing live streaming and jumped right in pretending they’re her friends. The group quickly figured out what’s going on and played along. It probably saved her life. Life pro tip for all the ladies out there.
Today is 9th anniversary of my brain surgery to remove 3 Arteriovenous Malformations. I have titanium clips holding my skull together (you can see them in the scan!) and ~1/8 of my brain (left frontal lobe) is dead.
Extremely blessed and thankful to have made it another year!
PSA: a lot of folks didn't grow up with parents who taught them things like how to do a proper cover letter or resume or interview or dress professionally. When young people apply for a job, don't publicly shame them for not knowing these things. Offer feedback privately.
Wow. I'd been so stressed out about my exam, work, being sick, cat being sick, and kid being sick that I'd completely forgotten today is December 7th! It marks year 12 after my brain surgery to remove a bunch of vascular tumors from my brain! What an absolute journey it's been!
