You mean in the 1990s when they called me and my boss "the Barbies" because we were women with blonde-ish hair? Even though we were doing the same work as the dudes?

Right!? Grammarly always wants to change perfectly good sentences because of passive voice ... grrr (BTW, otherwise I love you Grammarly)

It's a valid point. I'd read that.

I had a gap year in England with Newfie roommates. So, I got a full education about Atlantic Canada. I would love to go to Nova Scotia and Newfoundland someday.

Also, we'll try to keep Elon away from Pierre. We don't need a rich boy-led North America. (At least Mexico's president is on a roll!)

I always wanted to grow up to be Canadian -- it's only a few hours to the border. Hopefully, Pierre & friends won't cause too much trouble. Keep the dream alive for those of us in Minnesota.

It seems like IA got subsumed under content design and content strategy. I do all three of those things, and I think IA still makes a product/project more successful.

Modern architecture! ha.

We bought a fixer-upper. The roof wasn't designed for the snow Minnesota winters and it leaked all over. So, we made it air-tight... and then realized we made it TOO air tight. sigh....... all the $$$$$.

Save yourself, Canadians!

I guess we were low budget, but we just used rubber bands.

I feel your pain. A room in our modern house had it's own ecosystem -- moisture would gather on the ceiling and then rain down on us. That was an expensive fix ...

The stuff about consent is also troubling.

I was super excited to see the Keith Haring stamp and thought it would be the best seller.

Then I saw the Betty White stamp. I hope they made a bunch of those Bettys. Golden Girls fans are going to go bananas.

once was enough for me ... my husband eats the whole tub.

Yeah, that's part of if for sure! It's like drinking out of a fire hose. After the first few it becomes white noise.

I have a ReMarkable. I write handwritten notes in digital "notebooks" and send them to my computer transcripted. That is all it does, and that's what I like about it.

You might want to try something like Otter.ai, where you can see the transcript happening in real time. (There's also a recording.) It does cost a wee bit tho.
