I’m not coming here anymore. Find me at SciEditor everywhere else, including SciEditor.ca & @scieditor@toot.community. Bon courage!

Hey, @AirCanada offering me $30 for a screen that FLASHED IN MY FACE uncontrollably for 16 HOURS on a $2000 flight is insulting. Then you closed my case! Unacceptable. Address this properly, please.

@EditorSpice @Jane_33South It didn't do a good job of it, if it did!

Great panel on “Meaningful Work: Aligning Your Work with Your Values” today at #ACESEvolve. I especially loved Crystal Shelley’s comment that “diversity is a strength, inclusion is a must, and equity is a right.” Read more about her work here: rabbitwitharedpen.com

@dw_toy I hope it gets better at it and boosts my toolbox! Change is truly exponential today. More thoughts: scieditor.ca/2023/01/editor…

a lot of talk about ChatGPT at #ACESEvolve. gotta admit, it's a little frightening to me. is ChatGPT an exciting new tool for editors or a little scary?

@FrigidaireCA is customer service open today or will I be on hold until the new year? I’m running out of minutes, here!

Award-winning editor @IvaCheung turns the rules of #PlainLanguage upside down in this final article in her guest series. “These examples show how complex health communication be: different audiences will have different—often conflicting—information needs.” hubs.li/Q01shdnX0

People are worried about losing Twitter history but to me it’s like, “meh,” it’s like losing Gilligan’s Island.

Explaining to this admin that Outlook meeting invites show as *blank* in iMail is proving as painful as trying to explain to a former coworker that they can't just "keep calling the pager number back until someone answers."

Lack of zoom, forcing comments in Word to remain tiny text, is an accessibility issue. Changing font size in the Style settings for comments doesn’t work anymore either.

Thrilled to report that my newest #ebook Bat Poop Sparkles is now trending on Amazon at #43 in its category! Even though the print book hasn't been released yet!! books2read.com/b/batpoop
