My mom has used Microsoft Publisher to make newsletters, brochures, and flyers for years. She asked about a replacement since it's being discontinued. What would you have recommended to a non-technical Windows user that's easily frustrated by change and technical challenges?

My 14yr old prepared a Google Slides presentation outlining all of her requests for her 15th birthday. We told her we’ve already planned her gift. She gets to be 14 for another year. Negotiations are underway.

The flood damage in Kentucky over the weekend was not as catastrophic as some previous climate disasters in the state. But the rains still brought widespread havoc, and painful reminders of trauma.

Great use of Gemini for managers! Provide your team meeting and 1:1 notes and ask it to write a job description for your team. It'll get you about 90% of the way there. 💥

The social contract is changing. I have so many thoughts here I need to organize. It’s happening culturally, politically, professionally. A lot of the assumptions people have made about how the world works won’t hold true in the future and it’s going to be a difficult adjustment.

Here’s the thing: You will have to rescue yourself from whatever this day brings. Your corporate leadership, your manager, your government, your organizationally designated person in charge will not save you from the suck of the next x days/months/years. You will have to lead yourself out.

My kid is getting snow to make snow cream. I assured him I know how to make it. Still, he looked up a YouTube video to “be sure I know how.”

I'm writing a thing. The important paragraph is right in the middle. It'll be interesting if what I think is the important paragraph is what resonates with readers.

My app tells me I slept 7hr and 44mins last night. With a 7hr per night seep budget, I still have a sleep debt of 1.4%. It’s a constant struggle to get enough sleep.

Avoid the easy explanations. Asking “Why didn’t they just…?” in the midst of tragedy is the way people make themselves feel immune from the disaster they see on their screens. Life is fragile. Our planet can be unkind.
