If a woman chooses to take her husband’s last name, they have no problem accepting that as her new name. They drop her maiden name so hard it becomes a security question. But a trans person takes a new name, and it’s just SO hard for them to not use the old name anymore.

I accidentally paid for a @noom subscription after doing the trial and not liking it, and it was so easy and quick to get the charge refunded through their customer support chat. Even though Noom isn’t for me, I respect companies that stand by their product. Kudos!

I feel like I haven’t heard of any cool Canadian startups since the last batch all grew up. What up and comers should we be keeping an eye on?

Torn between my usual “reflect on the last year and set some goals for next year” attitude or a perhaps a more appropriate “fuck all of it just get through another year” take.

Idk why I need to share this - maybe it’s the Xmas spirit, or all the chocolate, or my booster… I love our lil Xmas celebration with my partner and dogs. I’m so in love y’all & I hope you all have someone in your life that makes you feel thoroughly loved & liked. Merry Xmas 🎄

I spent last week in Vancouver, working from an actual office, with my actual teammates whom I haven’t met since I started my job. It has been 19 months since I’ve worked from an office - IT WAS GLORIOUS I MISS IT SO MUCH

Pro tip, you don’t need to wait until mid-life (or quarter-life). You can have a crisis anytime

I’m using twitter’s account notification feature for the first (and probably last) time and it’s because I want to buy an Xbox meme fridge from @XboxCanada . But they keep tweeting about non fridge things and it’s stressing me out
