    Dandelion Break I'm Mad As Hell...

    So I’m mad as hell, and I’m not going to take this any more. (*) In yesterday’s Huddle, I screen-shared someone’s work we were discussing. This is what came up at the top of my Word screen: Now I have no use for Copilot. I don’t like it, don’t trust it, don’t want it on my machine. And I...

    Blog Post: Hurricanity

    New blog post by Jason L. – discussions in this thread, please --- I have to make a new word. This is not uncommon for me. Legiterally is now, officially, a thing. Coffeed is a passive verb that has long need to be in existence. I am still looking for one for accidentally on purpose and those...
