New Student!

So, at age 60, after 36 years teaching in NSW Public High Schools, I have decided to take 1 year of sabbatical leave.

Today I enrolled in a Diploma of Information Technology specializing in Networks and Cyber Security.

1 year to change my life. Wish me luck.

All trans people deserve equality, safety and respect.

Today's ride. Narabeen Lakes and Warriewood Wetlands, Sydney Australia. Is there anything my intrepid little Tern S10 folder can't do?

Time for coffee. 😊

Everyone thinks AI is somehow going to turn into SkyNet and blow up the world because it's evil.

But, I believe the scenario portrayed in John Carpenter's 1974 movie. Dark Star is far more likely.

So, I left Twister a little over a year ago, moved to Spreads, which was OK for a while.

So I'm moving in here. Hello BlueSky!

Predictably, a bigot who spoke at an anti trans rally where she defamed #Transgender Australians is awarded "Compensation" for "defamation" when her boss pointed out it looks bad to speak at a rally on the side of Nazis when literal nazis show up and are welcomed.

Hi #transgender BlueSky. Starting over here. Previously on Threads and before that Twitter, before that Tumblr, before that Newsgroups (yes, im that old)

Looking for follows.

First real coffee in 4 days. Im feeling the cold, even though im starting to feel better.

I love the colours in this scarf so much! They feel rich and luxurious and reminiscient of a gentler time.

Day 4 of this aweful spring flu ive managed to pick up. Lying around feeling miserable. 🫤
