We’ve all heard the ugly things three of my colleagues said on the infamous tapes. It is also important to remember what they did. The legislation they killed, stalled or weakened. The laws and programs they stopped that would've helped people. The bad policies they passed.🧵— Mike Bonin (@mikebonin) October 19, 2022
There are plenty of ways to stand out as a junior engineer without taking a back seat. A few that worked for me:1. When you’re faced with an unfamiliar problem, break it down into smaller problems.

If you were “mature for their age” you might have been parentified. Parentification is when a child is made to fill an adult role. This is an “invisible” trauma that has life long impact. HERE’S WHY: 🧵— Dr. Nicole LePera (@Theholisticpsyc) October 16, 2022
Parentification is an extremely common family dynamic where children are expected to: manage their parents emotions or issues (most common is marital problems), take care of the home & siblings on a regular basis, or act as a peer to a parent.
Children adapt quickly to this role. They learn they must betray their own needs, desires, & emotions to keep the connection to a parent.
Many children feel a fierce sense of loyalty to the parent thats parentifying them.
They want to fix, rescue, & protect that parent. It’s a true role reversal.

Rewind to July 2021Roomie meets a guy at a concert in Denver. They hit it off… He tells her that he lives in Dallas, but doesn’t work because he’s a “trust fund kid”, and was going to stay in Denver for a few days because he’s so interested in her— MoFrank MoProbs (@MorganAlexaRose) October 15, 2022
The use of fear to control children is so ubiquitous that most adults don’t even realise they are doing it. They’d never describe what they are doing that way. But in so many different ways, the children feel it. Here’s what it looks like. 1/— Naomi Fisher (@naomicfisher) October 14, 2022

For our first date, I booked and Airbnb with a private rooftop and hot tub down on South Beach (bc Florida was the only place open).

Thread on Grey’s Anatomy’s Isaiah Washington
Some backstory: I moved to LA in 2016 to write. Soon thereafter I started getting noticed by some industry folks. One night, a complete stranger DMs me. A grown man DMing another grown man a photo of himself playing dress up at 11PM? I was confused but I still kept it cordial. pic.twitter.com/vdGrCM0ByS— Dylan Park-Pettiford (@dyllyp) September 26, 2022

One thing I love about Abbott Elementary that I haven’t seen mentioned yet is the ethical, kind use of child performers on the show.
