Today I spoke with Rev. Al Sharpton about the CBC's Corporate Accountability Report on DEI, which shows that despite right-wing attacks, many Fortune 500 companies understand the importance of diversity. There’s more work to do, which is why accountability is so important.

Every now and then I feel compelled to remind people of the usefulness of hashtags.

You can use them to discover people interested in the same things as you, but that's just the start.

I use them to archive my thoughts on a particular subject. For instance, if I wanted to write a song or blog post or article about #billionaires I would just go to universeodon.com/@SrRochardBun… & be off to the races.

You can build your own & it doesn't have to be a unique hashtag to be able to find your own. Just go to yourprofile.com/tagged/HASHTAG

It's apple season!

It was a very productive year for our 2 trees, so what to do with them all?

Well, we gave some away and made a few pies, but the rest became juice. Here's a thread of our juice making process.
