09:24Dayna GeldwertI had to drop off to connect with about this before a Girl Scout meeting
09:24Dayna Geldwertwill try to pop back on
09:24████kk
09:52Dayna GeldwertI am so devastated
09:52Dayna GeldwertWe have to pull back on all our comms / efforts for Girl Scouts
09:52████omg what
09:52████why
09:53Dayna GeldwertStrategic Response said we can't given the leak
09:53Dayna GeldwertI am so so sad because I care so so much about it
09:53████i don't understand why!?
09:53Dayna GeldwertI could cry 101
09:53████i feel for you!!!! that is kinda ridic i seriously don't understand why
09:53Dayna GeldwertTheir sense is would seem strange/reactive/not land well to go hard on how we're supporting girls just days after a very damning article comes out about how we are damaging the well-being of girls
09:53████i mean can't we wait and see how it comes out?!
09:54████the NYT Teak about footballer abuse went nowhere
09:54████can't we just space a few weeks?!
09:55Dayna GeldwertYeah, that's the option we're toying with right now. But Girl Scouts is also going to be super jumpy once we tell them
10:03████ugh ya that really sucks. really hope it works out!!!!!
14:18████do you happen to have anyyyy screenshots of recent TT take a break?? or know how long i need to scroll for to find it lol
14:26Dayna GeldwertHow recent does it have to be?
14:26Dayna GeldwertI deleted the app because I was addicted PENGAD 800-631-6989
14:26Dayna GeldwertBut I def have old one s
14:26████HAHA i feel you
14:27████but also i don't know why I'm not getting them
14:27████bc rushtok has me scrolling way more
14:27████i'm trying to make a case for why we can't water down our Take a Break
14:27████so i want to show Miki etc what TT already does
14:27Dayna GeldwertAh gotcha
14:27Dayna Geldwertwould old ones help or nah?
14:28Dayna GeldwertWhen I was addicted in 2020, I think it was like... 40 mins of consecutive scrolling
14:28████yah old ones are fine!!!
14:29Dayna GeldwertKk i'm about to do a girl scout panel but will send after!
14:29████ok wow found the newest one with Headspace
14:29████kk!!!
14:29████i found some on their TTTips channel so actually this should be fine for now, but if you can easily find screenshots that's great too!
14:31Dayna GeldwertOooh yes they're all there
14:31████ughh they've already done everything we were brainstorming 101
14:31Dayna GeldwertI forgot about that
14:31Dayna GeldwertYuuup
14:31Dayna GeldwertI do think it benefits us to think of a new-ish angle
14:31Dayna GeldwertSo it doesn't feel like one more thing we're catching up to TT on
14:37████yea im kinda stuck on how we'd do that
14:38████but if anything we can't be WORSE
14:38Dayna GeldwertLol good point
14:38████is like so concerned about us telling people to leave the app
14:38████he's not helping us w anything right now
14:38████i will vent later lol
14:38Dayna GeldwertThat's so annoying
14:39Dayna GeldwertTelling them to leave and forcing them to leave is different
14:39████exactly
14:39████i think what we'd do differently is allow people to customize choose after how long they see the breaks etc
14:39████but he wants this to be OPT IN and im like no
14:43Dayna Geldwertok but we keep making tools no one is using
14:43Dayna Geldwertbecause we make it a control
14:43Dayna Geldwert5000000000
14:44████ya like we have to at least show ppl!!!!
14:44████maybe we could show it like 3 times and stop showing if they don't opt in
14:44████but no one will
14:44████i said do it for teens at least!
14:44Dayna GeldwertUgh
14:44Dayna Geldwertok going into the panel meow chat later!
14:47████yay have fun!!!
