Congratulations @abigailspanberger.com @teamspanberger.bsky.social for being elected #Virginia ‘s next governor! It was an honor to meet you when we worked on bringing #broadband to rural VA a few years ago! Now even more excited to brief members of the VA assembly this morning about broadband!

Had a short but amazing time at the Comunity Broadband Action Network (CBAN) summit in Ames, Iowa today! Thank you so much Curtis Dean and Jon Willow for the invitation to deliver my keynote “From Empathy to Equity” and to Deb Socia for the fireside chat!

Thinking about my Tuna today. It’s been almost four years and I still miss him so much.

So excited to give the Elihu Katz Colloquium @asc.upenn.edu tomorrow! Dr. Katz was a major influence and mentor to me and it is an honor to deliver a lecture in his name. This picture was taken 15 years ago while we worked on our book Echoes of Gabriel Tarde. www.asc.upenn.edu/news-events/...

When I was a competitive figure skater in Canada my friends and I had a saying: it’s time to turn down the suck and turn up the good. Today feels like one of those days.

Was searching for a headshot for an upcoming talk and came across this out take. Not appropriate for an "official talk" but I kind of love it.

Back in September, Ben and I had the honour of participating in the NoH8 campaign to end homophobia. There has never been a more important time than now to fight hate with love ❤️. #noh8 @noh8campaign.bsky.social

Ben and I snuck away to Ellicottville, NY for our anniversary. We battled a blizzard and got to our cabin where 2.5 feet of snow landed and it is perfect!

I learned the most wonderful word this morning: flibbertgibbet, which captures much of my demeanor, I think.

Bringing some Canadian butter tarts to my American family’s Thanksgiving this year! For the Canadians here, where are you on the raisin/no raisin debate? I’m clearly a raisins guy! 🇨🇦🇨🇦

I’ve decided that I’m giving myself the gift of time over the next 2 months. Despite 3/4 of a book left to write, I have no words left. I need time to grieve and heal over our Stella (and the election). I need time to read and get inspired. And most of all, I need time with my husband and Loki ❤️

There are so many options to post for my first time on Blue Sky that it is overwhelming. While I collect my thoughts, here’s a picture of Loki looking sassy.
