My roommate saw me put more cheese onto a frozen pizza & it was like I unlocked something in him. I saw the wheels turning as he realized we don't have to settle for the default amount of cheese the pizza overlords offer us. What goes onto the frozen pizza is in our control. We have the power.

Another day, another #TGIF post wherein we ask ourselves Q: Was it right of TGI Friday's to get SO very angry with Chili's new menu items! Can't we all just enjoy #mozzarellasticks in peace? #youshallperceiveme #tgifridays #chillis #dataforgood

To 'dash' or not to 'dash', that is the question. @dataforgood.bsky.social, feel free to weigh in here. Q: What inspired you to go with the 'dash' vs. the 'underscore', as per your previous socials identity incarnations? Inquiring minds want to know. #dataforgood #upatnightwondering

@socialmedialab.ca In the spirit of not ignoring our own, let's be friends :)

@spite.vc I hope you mean @bluey.site

What's that @dataforgood.bsky.social? You wish you'd been there? Well, you snooze you (lose your password), Sunshine.

The next month will be LIT! FIRE! AWESOME! (choose your own excited adjective, my fine-feathered, multi-generational friends) #dataforgood

Over 1,000 people signed up to help #vancouver #edmonton #calgary #regina #waterloo #toronto #ottawa #montreal #halifax and surrounding areas joining forces!

People in all 9 (nine) Canadian Data for Good Chapters came together to kick-off a month long #DataThon to support the work that the Converge Mental Health Coalition tackles #dataforgood

Today was a great day... #dataforgreatness #dataforgood

The #mcbarge could have been turned in to an Interceptor, before turning in to river garbage, itself. #showerthoughts

Take that @dataforgood.bsky.social! We have now surpassed you in terms of #BlueSky followers. However, you seem to still be gaining some, here and there... Is this playful "calling out" strategy, backfiring? We may yet still have to find that #lostpassword #dataforgood

Uuuu, very cool. Thank you for sharing and for checking us out. For whatever reason, assumed that the "starter pack" people were all in the USA. Alas, it's great to see that it's a global crew.

Hey @christiannolan.bsky.social I just mass followed your "data people starter pack". What a rush. #dataforgood

Ah @dataforgood.bsky.social we be gaining on you! Our 30 to your 46... #still #howcouldyouforgetyourpassword #dataforgood

Oh, @cunkonlife.bsky.social, you ARE here :)
