Look, apparently gifs aren't cool anymore but there's just no better way to explain what I feel returning to work in summer 2023 and checking in about our social media strategy.

Just a melancholy Millennial nostalgic for a few internets ago.

A Pulitzer & a Peabody!! What an unbelievable 2 days! This feels like undeniable proof that Indigenous stories matter & that we should support Indigenous people to tell them. We are so grateful to survivors who shared with us & hope this means more people will hear their voices.

My friends actually have a great sense of humour, so part of me (🤡👋) wants to proceed. Ahhh So my question is: if I dare, which version should I give my friend? There's also the option to delete my Canva account and go into hiding🙃

Here's a closer look at the results, and I feel like I might cry a little. (Had to look a little too hard to provide detailed alt text.) Man. I was going for unintentionally creepy, y'know? But this?? 😭😭😭

I started innocently enough, adding a rainbow to the overcast sky. But then I thought it might be funny to replace her husband (who works in machine learning) with a birthday clown No audio, but just picture me screaming by the end

This is the image I started with: a beautiful photo of my friend and her partner. I thought I might add a little text and maybe some confetti or something, but then I noticed @Canva's new feature

I don't know if I'm more amused or disturbed right now... So, I tried out @Canva's new AI-powered "magic designer" and I accidentally made nightmare fuel These clowns are straight out of the sewer drain. And (Trigger Warning!) they're not even the creepiest ones

Wow. @NPR's largest mass layoff since the '08 recession is already dispiriting at the 10,000 foot view And then I read threads like this from creators I love. Just ... oof. Hoping these truly special talents find their next home soon

I usually try to let my work speak for itself but apparently this needs to be said explicitly. I have interviewed women fighting for the right to wear their hijab in Quebec. I have interviewed women fighting for their right to remove their hijab in Iran.. 1/2

Sunday night plans sorted. Can’t wait to watch @thisplacefilm in my softest pants, with all the snacks. Can’t believe I just clued in to #TIFF22 Festival at Home! 😅

Nothing makes me happier than nailing it with a book gift 🙌🏽 This is the first English translation of a lecture series delivered by Frankl at 40, gifted to Shad for his 40th. And we got the last copy at @AnotherStoryTO. Kismet!

Just finished @elamin88’s audiobook — a great companion as I care for my two month old. I’m grateful for Elamin’s tender and thorny concept of ‘elsewhere’ and I how it may resonate with our identity-rich babies. I can only imagine the “nebula of negotiation” they will face …

Through joyful exhaustion, @bkxb and I are proud to introduce our child to the wider community Introducing ✨Benicio Hao-en Carletti Khoo✨ Born Friday, April 1 at @TOBirthCentre and delivered by @MidwivesClinic & our dear friend/doula @YamriT Bienvenido, Beni! We love you!

Luis and Maria on Sesame Street made me feel like I deserved sunny days, too. ❤️ Gracias, Emilio Delgado, for bringing both a beautiful Latinx family and my mother tongue to my childhood TV screen. Te extraño already. Baa Baa Bamba (1987) https://t.co/Jq8alhciDz via @YouTube

“The brevity of human life does not allow that one person alone is sufficient; it is necessary to adopt the observations of a good number of others from the past centuries and future ones to clarify that which fits better.” - Peiresc, 1635 Finding solace in the long view, today.

Shelters and orgs that help those escaping violence/abuse are reporting sharp increases in need. "We're calling this the shadow pandemic for domestic violence and sexual assault... abuse happens so often in isolation. Now it's really coming out." (2/2) https://t.co/e6RVsTRye4
