Had to pick a parcel up from the Post Office Sorting Office. Guy serving me remembered my Dad and mentioned him (we have the same name) 😭 ❤️
It's over 10 years since Dad died and I *love* it when people still speak of him, its the best feeling, like he lives on (I mean he does in his kids but you know what I mean).
Commiserated him on how busy he is ahead of two days striking, but totally supportive of them 👊

@ModelUki2@mastodon.sdf.org I forgot to mention how I know this. I was born, raised and still live in #Alberta. I am not a #Conservative and I don't like #politics. I also did spend 8 years working in #Saskatchewan before this pandemic. And there as well as the rest of #Canada think of #Alberta as a bunch of #Rednecks. I also didn't mind when I was living in #Saskatchewan people making fun of #Alberta either.
@ModelUki2@mastodon.sdf.org FYI: Justin's dad Pierre Elliott Trudeau was also hated in Alberta when he was #PM. The reason why was because the #Oil people did not want to share their #resources with the rest of #Canada.
I just choked on my own saliva. I wish that MRI's were alive when I was a tot. That way #AgenesisoftheCorpusCallosum would have been detected. I didn't find out that I have ACC until this past #February. It also explains how I got #ADHD. I was born with half a Corpus Callosum. But I can still walk and talk fine.
For those of you who have #ADHD, how do you manage #ToDoLists without adding on extra #tasks?
@00Aaron Just to promote different stuff.
@00Aaron Two of them are a publication that I created. One is about writing in general, and the fourth is my podcast.
@00Aaron I am still on it. I still have 4 different #Twitter accounts. But I don't check three if them. The one that I do, there's hardly anything going on. But then again, my #algorithms are always low.
@Nslbirding and yesterday, I noticed a #woodpecker wanting to drill a hole in my mother's house.
Blue Tit in my garden such lovely little birds, normal 5/6 feeding amongst great tit, Coal tit, Robins

Neurotypicals like to preach about having a “balanced life” but they have NO IDEA what it feels like to struggle with “balancing life” as a #Neurodivergent person 😫

Sometimes I ponder whether the genealogists who write "I'm researching X family too. Send me everything you have on them." to other researchers ever wonder why so few people respond to their messages. #genealogy #FamilyHistory
Autocrat #Orbán —#Putin's Trojan horse in #EU & #NATO— blocks #Ukraine aid package.
His kleptocracy should no longer receive EU funds — nor classified information.
#Hungary is no longer “just” a #democracy crisis but a #security risk.

@packbawky You're right.
@packbawky I had a #cat named Rose. I thought that he was a girl, until I got him fixed. Even though he was a boy ( he died almost 10 years ago), we still called him Rose.
@mariaisquixotic I just created 6 #instances. I am just focusing on one a day. Two of my instances are about #podcasting and two are for #writing . Those ones I need to promote my show and whatever I am writing. The other two are just for fun.

Covid shrinking US workforce leading to economic damage
@MisaMisa @auscovid19 I don't think that Covid is the reason for a shrinking workforce. I think that the reason has to do with people being laid off, overworked and underpaid. Most of the positions that need to be filled are in the service sector, which is where many of those jobs are minimum wage. And yet, inflation is at a all time high. How can someone with one minimum wage job and three kids pay for the high costs of living?
I am a Canadian adult with #ADHD. I wish that I was diagnosed as a kid, but they still don't have a test to diagnose inattentive ADHD. I also have a rare defect called Agenesis of the Corpus Callosum or #ACC. And I am looking for work in #Broadcasting, #Podcasting 🍐
