Connections matter. Love my kids. Idealist. Geek. Deceptively social introvert. Pondering education, parenting, tech, gifted and the meaning of life.

Did another semi hit an overpass? There’s something going on Hwy99 SB at the Steveston Highway overpass. A semi is stopped in the left lane, right at or before the overpass, blocking traffic. @CityNewsTraffic

@arianek Sorry to hear that! I’ve been in Eagle Ridge and Royal Columbian. But my disease is more straight forward, it sounds like. I used to see Dr Ken Atkinson in New West, but I wouldn’t exactly recommend him highly. If he was the only choice though, I might try him…

@gibsonsgolfer I remember going to a NEXT demo at Canada Place, and coming away BLOWN AWAY!! It was an exciting time…

@DriveBC @CityNewsTraffic Traffic southbound is still entirely stopped, sadly.

There are things you wish you didn’t know. January 2020 changed our world. Aggressive treatment of my kiddo’s leukemia worked and he’s doing well. Still lifelong watching for secondary cancers caused by the radiation and chemo. But he’s alive! We’re the lucky ones…

You may not be a Parent of a Child w/ #cancer & Awareness may not be a big priority. I get it. The day before my 11 year old Daughter was diagnosed, I didn’t know anything about #ChildhoodCancer 💔 If your Child is healthy, be thankful, Hug them & tell them that you Love them.

@rmfaris That thread (and all the sub threads) is the rabbit hole of all rabbit holes…

I needed that…

“Sorry for the slow reply” is a symptom of unrealistic demands in an always-on culture.

If you didn’t commit to a response deadline, stop apologizing and drop the guilt—you’re not late.

A healthier message is gratitude for reasonable expectations: “Thanks for your patience.”

Hate speech is a verbal assault. Threatening. Harassment. And entirely unacceptable. It crosses boundaries. And yes, it should be stopped.

[Heidi Hass - she/her (used to be Gable) @HHG]

If you are promoting hate and violence against a particular group or even a person, that's not just an opinion that you're entitled to...

[Heidi Hass - she/her (used to be Gable) @HHG]

My kids' questions always make me think. This time, we discussed freedom of speech. And when do we know something is about hate vs freedom?

@144joyfulhiwy I'm glad my talk resonated for you! I'm still kind of amazed to find out it wasn't just me... :-) of

[Heidi Hass - she/her (used to be Gable) @HHG]

@144joyfulhiwy It used to be that twitter was great for finding community, havi g conversations. But that seemed to fade. More broadcast now?

[Heidi Hass - she/her (used to be Gable) @HHG]

@144joyfulhiwy Yes, that's true - they all have similar functionality. I'm wondering about the use of each. What are people using twitter for these days?

[Heidi Hass - she/her (used to be Gable) @HHG]

Trying to figure out where Twitter could fit into my world these days. How do you use it? As opposed to Facebook, Instagram, etc?

[Heidi Hass - she/her (used to be Gable) @HHG]

@raulpacheco Also the way they flow. They don't clump. And they also don't bleed through the page like some others do.

[Heidi Hass - she/her (used to be Gable) @HHG]

@raulpacheco The Staedtler are my favourites by far!
