Congrats to IU alum and visionary @thoefler on yet another award. A duty to help data scientists succeed with their tools bs using HPC tools is a perspective that is on point.

How can we put more student stories and lived experiences in front of IT professionals? Knowing who and why can be a powerful motivator and hopefully direct cultural changes. #swit22

Breakfast is ready now, hard to resist until the morning!

Preparing snacks bags and other donations for @horizonhousein for our day on. Humbled by my eldest insisting on spending her own money to add to what we were collecting.
A day on, not a day off. Honor Dr. Martin Luther King today by participating in at-home experiences and safe service opportunities: go.iu.edu/3yeO. #IUMLK

Definitely not my best work but a small bit of woodworking did provide a nice mental health boost. Poplar may not be the best choice but I like the unfinished look and it's cheaper than some of the hardwood alternatives. 2020 seems to have opened up some bottle space. 🤔

Oh and this seemed like an appropriate selection to free more space afterwards.
Cried hard recounting to my eldest *why* the post-Katrina response sickened me, but got me off the couch to go help rebuild, and *why* it now motivates us to serve in Mexico annually. I wish it hadn’t taken the events of this week to show those feelings to her. Still growing.

So we’re done talking about whether or not white privilege exists, right? Cool.

Take this in: Never once, in the years 1860-1865, was this flag ever paraded in the halls of the American capitol.

The irony of reaching my stand goal while walking to the fridge for ice cream is not lost on me.

Thanks to you and the other co-organizers as well, particular shout out to Sadaf Alam @cscsch for pushing this internally as well as Winona Snapp-Childs from @iu_pti in keeping things organized in the final hours. Looking forward to doing it again at @ISChpc next year!
I just want to give feedback as an organizer and session chair of a #SC20 workshop (#SuperCompCloud). The work done by @Supercomputing and its service providers is really impressive. The platform is of a rare quality. Everything works smoothly. Awesome job folks! #HPC #Mango

Asking for a friend, are elves denied entry into the US due to the pandemic *please*? It would be *wink* tragic if the return of Elf on the Shelf was delayed.
Distraction for today, a short origin story of my Twitter handle. 1/5

In the heyday of hotmail I found myself unable to update my password as my last name “contained profanity.” 4/5

It was that glorious and otherwise uneventful day that an alternate surname of Hanrooster was born as I continued to immerse myself in the HPC community. The @HPCrooster jump was smaller, and not as fun, as the @HenizBratwurst origin at the House of Trembling Madness in York. 5/5
