A bird post for my #YGK peeps: I’ve had Merlin for awhile now and it’s been comparatively rare for me to get a new one for my life list. This year I’m *ON FIRE* getting new birds. Am I just getting out more, or are others also getting more new ones? 🤩🤓 #BirdNerdEra.

The sun is out for the first time in forever, and I meandered over to the new JDUC! It’s beautiful! The trees and flowers have also popped on campus. I was hard pressed to decide which picture for today, but went with sunny architecture! Happy Monday, #YGK! ☀️

A heartfelt thanks to @LimestoneDSB and @LESAA_LDSB A lot of adults took time away from their regular work this week to support youth in playing basketball. Refs taking time to teach about the rules, coaches encouraging grit & fair play. This is what it’s about! 💫☀️ #Grateful.

Highlighting my apparent need for a vacation, this morning I pondered an observational study about generational transmission of culture. Hypothesis: the kids of GenX/elder millennials are more likely to wear ankle socks than kids of other generations. 🧦 Next SSHRC?.

Playing with Notebook LM. I just uploaded my CV and asked it to identify potential jobs for me. It wrote me a great draft for a bio. A colleague uploaded their syllabus, and it can answer basic questions for students. Obvs need to fact check everything, but technology is cool.
