A little reminder as the school year continues to move quickly...

There are still several public training sessions ahead for me this year.

If we’re crossing paths at an upcoming session, I’m excited to learn with you! If you haven't yet registered please reach out for more info.

πŸ’Ύ Back up important files to a secure storage location

A little care goes a long way; for your tech and for you

Canada is not subsidized by the United States. Donald Trump is lying when he claims that. What’s worse is his base of fanatical followers believe it.

Remember Canadians, it is about boycotting American products! The EU and the UK are our trusted friends and allies and should not be forgotten. If you cannot buy a Canadian product please buy British, French, German, Scandinavian, Italian and so on! Let's build a stronger world together!

If you do not know the meaning of "Elbows Up", in Canada we use that term when we are ready for a fight and someone is going to bleed. #ElbowsUp #Canada #BuyCanadian #BuyLocal #cdnpoli

At first, I wasn't sure why people on BlueSky were demanding a profile picture, a legit bio, and posts to subscribe to an account. Let's just say that a month later, it has become VERY clear that it is necessary to filter and apply these rules!

Au dΓ©but, je ne comprenais pas trop pourquoi les gens sur BlueSky exigeaient une photo de profil, une bio legit et des posts… pour s’abonner Γ  un compte. Mettons qu’un mois plus tard, c’est devenu trΓ¨s nΓ©cessaire de filtrer et d’appliquer ces rΓ¨gles!

Folks, Brandon was my editor in the job I was just laid off from.

He was truly the best boss I've ever had and a genuine pleasure to work with. He made my writing WAY better. And he's extremely funny!!!

They laid him off too when they axed the newsroom.

You should all be fighting to hire him!

I get the desire to follow back but I am constantly amazed at how many accounts that are clearly trolls, porn bots, fake GoFundme begging and others have really big accounts following them. Seriously...look at an account before blindly following back.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need to justify your reading preferences and choices to anyone. Audiobooks count as reading. Also, you don't have to finish books you don't enjoy. Don't read to impress, read for yourself. Life's too short, love yourself, ok?
