It has been such a privilege to work with these minds. The brainstorming and planing itself has taught me so much. I am confident that the conference will prove to be of great value for all attendees. #AmEditing #AdvEds

I wish people outside of Canada would stop trying to tell us we are actually "American." We never ever ever call ourselves American. Please respect how we refer to ourselves.

The man who proclaimed to the world that “white solidarity is the only way to survive” is incapable of grasping his own pathetic supremacism because, he insists, he got a half-Indian person pregnant. I’m sick of hearing how “smart” this dull, self-adoring, half-wit bigot is.

Matt Novak@paleofuture.bsky.social · 2mo ago

The Economist: "People say that you're a racist. What is the motivation for doing that?" Elon Musk: "My partner is... she's half-Indian and... I have four children with her. One of them was named after a famous Indian physicist. So I would say I'm not racist."

Pierre Berton said that a Canadian is someone who knows how to have sex in a canoe. I can't confirm this, but I can confirm that a Canadian is someone who knows that American beer is like sex in a canoe: fucking close to water.

Had a wonderful in-person meetup with fellow @editorscanada.bsky.social members! Great coffee and conversation. It's always so nice meeting and talking with @freshlookediting.ca! #AmEditing #TheEditorLife #PatioCoffee

Will Farage, Musk etc be condemning white people in general for the actions of this violent white person, and advocating rage or violence in response? Will the BBC be laundering their 'legitimate concerns' about those white folks?

I grew up watching cricket, which meant listening to a lot of different Englishes. When I wrote some of that English in school, I was mocked and reprimanded by my English teacher. Why? Cuz I didn't follow all the rules she was teaching us. This is a good reminder why it's okay to break "rules".

James Harbeck@sesquiotic.bsky.social · 4mo ago

Your occasional reminder: "good grammar" is different from "clear" or "coherent" and serves a different purpose. sesquiotic.com/2018/12/25/1...

As long as we communicate, we're not going to stop misinformation. But we can resist it. #Editors26

First, we look inward. We look at our editing. We work to break down barriers. And we work to be more inclusive, opening the doors to others who have been traditionally left out. #Editors26

Misrepresentation occurs when the people being written about are not the ones doing the writing and editing. #Editors26

Legal doesn't mean ethical. #Editors26

Asking curious questions rather than accusing someone of ethical concerns can be helpful for having the conversation. #Editors26

Say you're an editor without saying you're an editor. That's how you think about your superpower. #Editors26

Language is how we understand the world around and we create language together. #Editors26

Options for "content"? Arguments Ideas Writing Truth, inclusion, and responsibility #Editors26

Misinformation isn’t just fake news. It's the assumptions we make, the language we let slide and the identities we misrepresent. 💥 #Editors26

Stop press! @editingglobally.bsky.social colleagues @aalaptrivedi.bsky.social, @ebrenner.bsky.social and @janetwordsmith.bsky.social are attending and speaking at the @editorscanada.bsky.social #conference on 'Editing in the Age of Misinformation'. Will you be there? Do say hello to them!

1/2 Time to start getting nervous and excited about my first ever in-person speaking gig at the @editorscanada.bsky.social conference in Halifax! Join me as I sit with @janetwordsmith.bsky.social and @ebrenner.bsky.social to talk about how the editing profession has become globalised.

Triage editing: work with others who are in the project and let go of some things in order to focus on other, more important things. @ebrenner.bsky.social's excellent piece on how to stay in control without losing your mind!

Erin Brenner (she/her)@ebrenner.bsky.social · 5mo ago

When there’s no time for a full copyedit, a triage plan helps you focus on what matters most and protect yourself professionally. . Read my new blog post at the Quad's website: zurl.co/RpCBD . #AmEditing #FreelanceEditing
