Raw dogging is definitely a choice. Not one I could endure, but more power to them if they can go 14 w/o a book or a paper or music… or food or drink in some cases.

Consumer tech companies (and right now, airlines)… consider adding an β€œI’m their kid” role so we can help our parents manage their flights and entering KTN numbers in obscure places they just don’t click into… without having to log iut of the app as us and in as them.

I’m going to use this like I used to use Twitter… for fun and updates. Hello from Auckland NZ. I truly loved this week getting to meet and work face to face with my Kiwi colleagues plus meeting many in person for the first time.

And I’m not sad about missing the winter, either, mind you.
