Co-convened a IT and libraries workshop today, it was really great to see people connect and talk about how we can help each other find solutions and advocate for better solutions together.
Sunday morning multi-tasking, knitting, Buffy the Vampire Slayer (s1e5) and prepping for tonight's D&D game. My players are heading further into the wilds of Chult.
I have started watching Superstition on Netflix, and it such a cool urban fantasy /horror show!
Pretty courtyard tree!
I am teaching class 3 in two days at my library! One more after this, that still needs to be written. Python's Turtle module, Library Ebooks, Online Scams and formatting books using MS Word.
My holiday project is likely to be making a list of reasonable alternatives to mainstream social media and cloud services that I would use, and those that people who are uncomfortable with computers would use.
Re-visiting this platform (aka hopping back on to the bandwagon)
How does one come out at 31? #personal
Enjoying my first vacation in ages. Nothing like a good view and good company. Lots of time to reflect on community, communication, and networks. https://mastodon.social/media/ws0KpkVtIT5zRwgmIus
Procrastinating over picking up dropped garter stitches in my almost complete shawl. Last time, I couldn't make it work. I am not sure I can fix it. https://mastodon.social/media/LKS35HGzhigWJWev-2s
Long weekend reading: Audrey Coulthurst's Of Fire and Stars https://mastodon.social/media/sEFGaXAVmX6d9lb3gF4e
I've been thinking a lot about starting my own D&D campaign, with a modern-fantasy setting. While I've never DM'ed before, I know that it would be a really rewarding practice.
I also like the idea of putting together the lose framework of an adventure and then letting others explore and define the edges and parts. A fun project to try at least!
I deeply enjoyed this article on the Android ecosystem and security: http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/googles-adrian-ludwig-says-android-is-more-secure-than-ever
I'm a technology/training librarian on Canada's southwest coast. I love to try new technologies to see if they would be of interest to my community, and enjoy tinkering.
Other hobbies include knitting, weaving, and D&D.
