Overheard: “I don’t have ADHD, I have AD4K!” 😂

"Are bicyclists allowed to take the lane?" And "are pedestrians allowed to cross at intersections where there aren't lines painted on the ground?" need to be immediate failure questions on the written test. You get either of them wrong, no license.

Been working remotely for 14 years and here's a pro tip: If you "have to" join a meeting from your car, something has gone wrong. Try to fix that.

Fun fact that I'm sure will preturb a few of my followers: "helicopter" is not a mash up of "heli" and "copter" like we tend to say but if "helico" (spiral) and "pter" (wing)

Map by @AEI of areas no more than a 10min walk from at least 6 restaurants, coffee shops, grocery stores, hardware stores, and/or drugstores.

The rest of us are good ✌️
