Happily retired (emeritus) professor, corporate communication. Financial communication consultant in NYC before that. If I had a chance to start again, I’d be a meteorologist. 🌈

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

I’m starting to wonder if Trump is getting even for some slight of his grandfather in Dawson City in 1898. 🤔 That seems as sensible as any other thing I can I think of. #Yukon

I used to encourage students to ask questions about the course and course content by saying, “There are no stupid questions, only stupid people who don’t ask questions.” But after hearing some of their questions, I’m afraid to say that I was wrong.

Whether it's laid-off workers in the midwest losing their Medicaid benefits to budget cuts or financiers on the Upper East Side losing their nannies to mass deportations, there's bound to be plenty of buyers' remorse for Trump voters soon.

I went to the grocery store today, and this lady started singing about her Diabetes medicine, and then a bunch of other shoppers and the store's employees joined her.

It was really weird.
