After following ACES for years on Twitter, I finally heard the gasp in person! I heard the gasp! I heard the gasp! But I didn’t expect it to be for math. 😏 #ACESAPStyle #ACES2019
ALT Slide on percent vs percentage vs percentage points

Do not use racially charged or similar terms as euphemisms for racist or racism when the latter terms are truly applicable.

I am sad I am missing this, so I will confess on Twitter: One time I sent the front page to press with “TEASE TK” in all the teaser boxes. #ACES2019

Hi, #ACES2019 attendees! Just a heads-up that our badges this year are fancy! Unfortunately, that means there isn't a pocket to put your business cards in, or your tickets to events. Just want you to be prepared! I'm going to find a paper clip or something....😬

Big props, Sarah! And for other #ACES2019 folks who might like to check it out, my session on ergonomics—and Helvetica—will be on Friday, March 29, at 10:30 a.m. ⚡️

That may have been the fastest hour to ever be experienced. Thank you for chatting with us today, @H_E_Saunders and @News_with_Love! And thanks to our many participants today, for jumping in and showing what an incredible family ACES folks are. Our next #ACESchat is April 3!

A4: You can always message people on social media ahead of time and say, “Hey, I want to meet you IRL.” #ACESchat

Twitter/Social Media is a great way to connect. I don't know how many times I have run into people that I met on SM IRL. @JeremyDBond as an example! #ACESchat

Sort of A4: There will be more editors gathered in one location than at any time in the history of words, and perhaps more than half will be first-timers. You are not alone. #ACESchat

I'm still a little shy and have to remind myself that saying something like "hi, I see you a lot on Twitter" is a perfectly acceptable greeting. #ACESchat

A1: Plan out your schedule! Decide what your learning priorities are, then use the app or program book to choose sessions that align with your goal. Throw in at least one fun one, and make sure a few sessions look like they'll have actionable takeaways for your work. #ACESchat

The time is nearly upon us, for the next #ACESchat! Fifteen minutes until we chat with @H_E_Saunders and @News_with_Love about everything #ACES2019. Take a moment to introduce yourself before we get started, as we often have new participants.

And the winner of the National #GrammarDay Tweeted Limerick Contest is by Toronto editor Claire Valgardson (@CMValgardson):
The all-purpose he is passé,
And he or she gets in the way.
Ip, ey, co, and heesh
Make readers say "Sheesh!"
Which leaves us the singular they.
