BREAKING: Long Island Serial Killer suspect has been arrested and taken into custody.
The suspect killed 10 victims from 1996-2010.
His name is Rex Heuermann, an architect from Massapequa Park, NY.
Years babysitting helped prepare me for parts of co-running a company. Examples:
- Patience
- Anticipating removing risks all the time w/o presenting like it
- Gently explaining things, lots
- Encouraging communication
- Building essential skills via demo supported practice
There’s a lot of skill and care that is built up when working with such sensitive and vulnerable audiences that comes in handy elsewhere.
We tend not to value and celebrate these types of skills, and the experiences that develop them, as much as we should in workplaces.

There's so much to fix about our healthcare systems in the US, and it feels good to be a part of the change. Kudos to all involved in these efforts, from across sectors. It takes collective effort and there's much work still to be done.
Just another normal week in our timeline when an article in Nature states unequivocally that SARS-CoV-2 can invade the neural system to interfere with human memory, and everyone shrugs and says yeah whatever.
J.Sotomayor in #dissent in today's affirmative action decisions from #SCOTUS: "The Court subverts the constitutional guarantee of equal protection by further entrenching racial inequality in education, the very foundation of our democratic government and pluralistic society."
If SCOTUS was serious about their ludicrous “colorblindness” claims, they would have abolished legacy admissions, aka affirmative action for the privileged.
70% of Harvard’s legacy applicants are white. SCOTUS didn’t touch that - which would have impacted them and their patrons.
