What I've learnt on the Twitter this year:
1. The State of Hawaii makes Jason Kenney honorary Premier.
2. Rod Phillips and John Tory say Rod nodded off on a TTC streetcar and somehow ended up in St Barts.
3. New Conservative Task Force created to locate their MPs and staff.
6. Doug Ford announces that a large order of McDonald's fries and a box of Philadelphia Cream Cheese will also be awarded the Order of Ontario this year.
8. UCP MLA Jeremy Nixon says he only travelled to Hawaii to personally forward a really funny email joke to Allard
10. Doug Ford sent Jason Kenney a Thank You card.
12. The Toronto Sun covers its eyes, counts to 30 and pretends Justin Trudeau is hiding.
14. With dozens and dozens dying in LTCs, Caroline Mulroney travels to 1986 and urges us all to buckle up.
16. Jason Kenney appears at his New Year's Day press conference wearing a "I ❤️ Maui" hoodie.
19. Zoom Inc reports huge surge in green screen background use in 2020, saying uptick rates concentrated in cities with provincial legislatures.
21. Doug was most upset about Phillips's pandemic jet-setting because Rod was expected at the Ford Extended Family Christmas dinner and Secret Santa swap.
23. In 2035, millions of adults who were kids in 2020 will think back fondly on memories of Nana and Papa's foreheads and stippled ceilings.
24. 2020: The year of the Glory Hole. Oh, and Doug Ford's food orgasm.
Clearly, I'd make a lousy politician.

4/ On consistency
If, EVERYDAY, you:

- did 10 burpees
- read 20 pages of a book
- saved $10
That would probably put you in the top quartile for health, knowledge and wealth.
Consistency is extremely undervalued.

Always. No, your company is not an exception.
A tactic I don’t appreciate at all because of how unfairly it penalizes low-leverage, junior employees, and those loyal enough not to question it, but that’s negotiation for you after all. Weaponized information asymmetry.

And by the way, you should never be worried that an offer would be withdrawn if you politely negotiate.
I have seen this happen *extremely* rarely, mostly to women, and anyway is a giant red flag. It suggests you probably didn’t want to work there.
You wish there was no negotiating so it would all be more fair? I feel you, but it’s not happening.
Instead, negotiate hard, use your privilege, and then go and share numbers with your underrepresented and underpaid colleagues. […]
