Alas, I won't be at #IJF23. Going to miss you lovely people.
Here's my introvert's guide to the festival from last year (AKA how to leave @journalismfest with more energy than you arrived.) 😁
6 Apr 2022
Introverts, contrary to popular belief, are not anti-social. We just find places where there are large groups of people intimidating. We prefer to socialise in small groups.
If this sounds like you, and you're heading to #IJF22 this week, here's my survival guide...

gal-dem has been such an important part of my life as a reader, writer and fan. I'm sad to see it go, but it will always be a reminder of what journalism can be. Thank you to all the people who created such an inspiring platform that made countless waves in British media.
31 Mar 2023
We are incredibly sad to announce that gal-dem is closing.
Several factors that have contributed to this difficult decision, including numerous challenges with running a small, mission-driven, independent media company. We’ve shared more here gal-dem.com/gal-dem-goodbye-…

When I first learned German, I thought squirrels were called "einhörnchen." This translates more-or-less as "baby unicorns."
It took the best part of a decade until someone politely corrected me.🤦♂️

I thought one of the hardest German words was "Eichhörnchen". Funnily enough, the translation "Squirrel" is equally hard for Germans.
Once I learned "Eichhörnchen", my father-in-law suggested I also try the Bayrisch version, "Oachkatzl".
Bayrisch is German on hard mode.

An amazing image of a full rainbow captured at 30,000 feet by pilot Lloyd J. Ferraro. Rainbows are actually full circles, but we usually only see half of the arc from Earth.

Algorithms are being used in welfare systems across Europe to hunt for fraud. These machines make life-changing decisions about millions of people. They claim to be accurate and fair. For the first time we got access to fully test these claims

There isn't enough time, or enough words, to do justice to the power Mandy brought to this world. She was a special one.
I'll remember her like this: in a bar, laughing, fearless, in flow, the smartest person in the room, having both the time and the words. RIP, friend.

We're deeply saddened to learn of the passing of former ONA board member and president, Mandy Jenkins. She was instrumental in creating the Women's Leadership Accelerator, was a force in #DigitalJournalism, a mentor a friend. We will miss her infinitely. bit.ly/3IAEI7r
