We all know she had her moments but Nanna was an unforgettable woman. We’ll be holding a small memorial service for her this Friday at Kirkdale Community Centre
Today, we remember a legend.
On this day in history, Harambe would have celebrated another birthday. An icon that became part of internet history, American culture, and an entire generation’s timeline.
Tomorrow marks 10 years since we lost him. Ten years since the moment the world stopped scrolling and collectively mourned something bigger than a meme.
He became a symbol of loyalty, strength, chaos, unity, and the strange beauty of the internet bringing millions of people together for one cause: never forgetting Harambe.
Everyone remembers where they were when they heard the news. And somehow, a decade later, his legacy still lives on.
Gone, but never forgotten.
Rest easy to a true patriot. 🕊️🇺🇸

Forever in our hearts.
I am nostalgic for the days when a candidate pulling out of an election meant they'd been having an affair with their secretary, rather than posting Nazi-grade antisemitic conspiracy theories.
An employee just asked for a second monitor.
Standard request.
Usually takes 3 clicks to approve.
But they submitted the ticket under Software Procurement instead of Hardware Request.
If I process it, my internal audit metric takes a hit for cross-category resolution.
So I rejected it and told them to submit it correctly.
They submitted it under Network Outage.
I rejected it again.
They emailed me directly, CCing their director, asking why I am blocking their productivity.
I replied all with a link to our KB article on How to Select the Correct Dropdown Menu.
The director replied to me privately to just give them the monitor.
I said I would, pending a properly categorized ticket.
Eventually, the ticket arrived in the right queue.
I approved it in four seconds.
Time to resolution: four seconds.
Process is a beautiful thing.
