Yeesss! I was missing the ol days of Twitter when you could engage in low-stakes ambient intellectual socializing and random mass silliness. I needed this thread and my fellow nerds delivered 😆💕

Are you sure you don't want a roller bag (or a bag w/ wheels in general)? Have you considered the layovers, the delays, the sprinting through the airport to make your connection? The next practical choice is a backpack.

I *knew* we were kindred spirits!! 😍I’ll have to tell you about my summer online Deception Communication course in which I pulled a “con” on my students to demonstrate how easy it is to be deceived. Those kids will remember that lesson for the rest of their lives 😬😅

🙋‍♀️Me! I want to move to 🇳🇴! However, I'd need to negotiate for Winter clothing. The warmest outerwear I own is a bulky sweater (I'm in SoCal). 😅

Ok, but I don't see anything here about surviving the existential crises that occur when you've been awake for 3 days straight to figure out how your work advances the entirety of human knowledge.
