Saying we can’t cross a bridge is epic troll behaviour.

[Margaret E Atwood @MargaretAtwood]

Here's a piece of literature by me, suitable for seventeen-year-olds in Alberta schools, unlike -- we are told -- The Handmaid's Tale. (Sorry, kids; your Minister of Education thinks you are stupid babies.)

John and Mary were both very, very good children. They never picked their noses or had bowel movements or zits. They grew up and married each other, and produced five perfect children without ever having sex. Although they claimed to be Christian, they paid no attention to what Jesus actually said about the poor and the Good Samaritan and forgiving your enemies and such; instead, they practised selfish rapacious capitalism, because they worshipped Ayn Rand. (Though they ignored the scene in The Fountainhead where “welcomed rape” is advocated, because who wants to dwell, and also that would have involved sex and would de facto be pornographic. Well, it kind of is, eh?) Oh, and they never died, because who wants to dwell on, you know, death and corpses and yuk? So they lived happily ever after. But while they were doing that The Handmaid’s Tale came true and Danielle Smith found herself with a nice new blue dress but no job. The end.

Love these. When I sit at a memorial bench, I say hello to the names on them and thank them for the spot to rest.

@GrahamMosimann @chuck925 She looks happy about it too!

Wanted to bike to the AGA. The bike racks, unfortunately, are tucked away in a building recess near the back on 102 A Ave, so I don't feel it's a safe place to leave my bike. Wouldn't a secure DT bike lock up be great? #yegbike #yeg #wishfulthinking

@pathsforppl @michaeljanz @PlanEdmonton @edmonton_anne Good news - the centre of the lane bollards are gone!

[Diana Skrepnyk @dllskrep]

@pathsforppl @michaeljanz @PlanEdmonton @edmonton_anne Really nice that this section is finished. Totally agree about how narrow the bollards make it. So very odd to divide a lane when there's another lane (also divided) on the other side of the street. Makes no sense.

[Diana Skrepnyk @dllskrep]

Had a strange follow on insta and wanted to report it. Searched thru several @Canada cyber fraud websites, and they want me to report it by going through a 'secure sign-in centre' via logging on to my bank?!? Um, no. Surely there's a better way.

[Diana Skrepnyk @dllskrep]

Fixed with help from an Adobe Community expert! Lesson learned: do not export a TOC in the articles panel, as not exporting with the entire book will create errors. I've been fighting with this for a week. Sheesh!

[Diana Skrepnyk @dllskrep]

Having issues exporting an #epub from an #InDesign book file and and get ‘toc text anchor is missing’ errors. Have searched forums etc and many have had the same issue. I suspect it’s to do with paragraph styles. I’m at my wits end -can anyone help? #graphicdesign #eprdctn

@425cath Thank you!

My bike Frankie and I are ready for today's #FancyWomenBikeRide, a global event in over 200 cities to promote safe and inclusive bike infrastructure for women. Great excuse to wear a fascinator! 🚴🏽‍♀️💃🏻😍💋🚵‍♀️

@DinicolaNicola @GrahamMosimann @FWBRyeg Looking forward to meeting you, too!

[Diana Skrepnyk @dllskrep]

My son @GrahamMosimann said 'find your people!', so now that I'm back in #yeg, I plan to join today's #VintageBikeRide with the #Omafietsmob and @FWBRyeg. My bike Frankie isn't Dutch, but her recycled parts do include a frame from WW2. Please say Hello if you're there!

[Diana Skrepnyk @dllskrep]

Finally made an insta account for my artwork so I can apply for art shows - I'm a newbie to showing my work. It's not complete, but it's a start. I'd be thrilled if you gave it a follow.

Absolutely. I bike because back issues only allow me to walk a few blocks on a good day.

I found myself behind a fellow cane-user on their bike today. People with disabilities do bike! Bikes are accessibility devices.
