I may blog a little about this later, but Portland, Oregon, is redesigning the southwest part of its bus network: https://humantransit.org/2023/08/portland-big-transit-service-changes-in-sw-hills.html. Changes are designed to boost areas that are either (1) high ridership or (2) have low-income or high minority populations.

I remember having some difficulty back in 2019 when #WPCampus was at Lewis and Clark. The campus itself isn't near anything, and connections were poor.

While I was at #WPCampus a batch of Blu-rays came in from Shout Factory: The Boys from Brazil, The Shadow, Motel Hell, and Big Bad Mama/Big Bad Mama II (in which Angie Dickinson slums a bit). Motel Hell might be the most genial riff on Texas Chainsaw Massacre imaginable, and it's all down to Rory Calhoun's charm.

I posted this message in the #WPCampus Slack, and someone shared this helpful tutorial on how to make alt text images look nicer. https://bitsofco.de/styling-broken-images/

#WPCampus 2023 is 5 weeks away. I have officially scheduled my routine post-conference spa appointment. ♥️

I am nerd-cited to share that @annaecook will be the keynote presenter at #WPCampus 2023 this summer. And will help us put #accessibility in the spotlight for our event.

You can join me in person or online. Just be sure to register!

I am so grateful to the #WPCampus community for all it has given me. I will always be a member, but after 8 years, my journey as a leader will end in December.

After a year of work, WPCampus officially ends our leadership transition and announces our inaugural Board of Directors.

It's been a blessing. I can't wait to see what happens next for this lovely group of humans.

Happy to share that I’m starting a "new" position as "Director and Past-President on the Board of Directors" at #WPCampus!

The WPCampus leadership transition is complete, and a new Board of Directors has been formed.

I will be around for a while, but my almost eight-year role as the only Director has bittersweetly come to an end. It's been a treat, y'all. I'm excited about our community's future and its new leadership.
