I bet you can drive in snow though. That gives you an unfair advantage over everyone else šŸ˜†

My large dog also loves a too-small chair

#local-vancouver - January 21, 2025 at 06:55 PM

We have a lot of subsects here šŸ˜†

#local-vancouver - January 21, 2025 at 06:42 PM

@Claire Beveridge also not quite Vancouver (Salt Spring) but also close enough! Not really a big content marketing community here ā€” more poets and memoir writersā€¦..

#local-vancouver - January 21, 2025 at 06:03 PM

Dannnng. I didnā€™t know about it then!

#local-vancouver - January 21, 2025 at 06:02 PM

Do I get a gold star for first post in the Vancouver local?!

#pets - January 09, 2025 at 05:42 PM

This puppy cannot be real.

#freelance-gigs - December 19, 2024 at 05:12 PM

Very curious what industry within the manufacturing/industrial space?

Old Loby holds a lot of emotions.

He needs a tiny construction hat and clipboard.

Iā€™m personally very prepared for some baby cow pics

#pets - October 07, 2024 at 03:58 PM

This one was casually chasing a doe around my yard.

#pets - October 07, 2024 at 03:08 PM

Office window update.

Babies are gone.
Daddies are out.

#pets - September 25, 2024 at 06:10 PM

ooh Iā€™m so sorry. Here is to all the long walks and treats in the after life.

#pets - September 10, 2024 at 04:30 AM

haha the kids who owned the chicken gave it a bath in beet juice (theme this year was ā€œBeauty and the beetsā€) So no chickens were harmed in this display.

#pets - September 09, 2024 at 04:15 PM

Bringing the Monday vibes with this pink chicken

Baby deer update : still so darn cute.

#pets - August 21, 2024 at 04:47 PM

Runner up (not my dog, but omg so cute)

#pets - August 21, 2024 at 04:30 PM

Look who is Mr. March in the local Fire Fighter calendar for 2025!

#pets - August 07, 2024 at 01:03 AM

More importantly, we need to talk about that rack.

Oh, I knew what lake that was. Couldnā€™t fool me.

#CJE3XC0H3-announcements - July 17, 2024 at 05:44 PM

You need the influencer hat.

Points for persistence, I guess

#pets - June 12, 2024 at 05:37 PM

oooh dear. Sent this from my phone. But Iā€™ll take it ahaha

Gloomy day on the wets coast is getting us all down.

#intros - April 30, 2024 at 06:15 AM

@Nikolas Wright Hey Nik! Thatā€™s true, I am in cannabis tech ā€” currently working for a cannabis focused agency (Deep Roots), plus a handful of canna clients. Also part owner of Cannabis Tech. Congrats on the new role with one of the big (biggest?) players! When Iā€™m not in Morocco on a vacay ā€” Iā€™ll be sure to hit you up to talk shop.

#pets - April 17, 2024 at 12:34 AM

It all started as a joke with a plate from FB marketplaceā€¦. but then, apparently, we needed the entire set. The old crew back together, ya know?

#pets - April 16, 2024 at 11:11 PM

We put a box on the floor as a cat trap.

Worked in less then five minutes.

Box time is more then six hours and counting.

So the $18 a month with Writer isnā€™t as valuable as the Enterprise

#general - April 03, 2024 at 03:18 PM

Writer is expensive now? I canceled my sub long ago, because I didnā€™t get enough value out of it. Sell me on it now?

Not for general copy, but Iā€™ve been using perplexity for descriptions ā€œWhat is XXX?ā€ type copy.

#general - April 03, 2024 at 03:03 PM

But Iā€™m using the premium version! haha

#general - April 03, 2024 at 03:01 PM

Is it just meā€¦. or is ChatGPT getting worse? Iā€™ve been leaning on it to kick start a few introā€™s ā€” and they are completely unusable. Instead of just one AI trope, it stuffs all those words in there - evolving, innovative, realm, testament, embracing, pioneer

woof

Please tell me they have upgraded the coffee at the cafe in Valle de Cocora from a nespresso machine? šŸ˜‚

Its a full time job during this cold snap.

#CJE3XC0H3-announcements - January 16, 2024 at 06:02 PM

@Eric Doty (Superpath) I am so happy Iā€™m not the only one panicking about the hummingbirds in our neck of the woods!

For anyone looking for a 2024 Strategy kickoff, Sarah Duran is offering a two-session workshop starting next Tuesday (Jan 16th). Iā€™ve been working with her for almost a year, and can give her cred for building a excellent program designed specifically for freelance/consultants. Full details on the 2024 Freelance Flightplan here.

#general - November 30, 2023 at 06:32 PM

Thanks for the intel though!

#general - November 30, 2023 at 05:50 PM

correction: I sent it off without the ā€˜deckā€™ or subheading. But my pitch was super tight and contained 0 PR bullshit. So I guess I now wait and see

#general - November 30, 2023 at 04:36 PM

Any freelancers out here pitch to publications regularly? I just answered a call for stories but the editor requested ā€œEach pitch must begin with a proposed headline and deckā€

In all my years of pitching, Iā€™ve never seen a request for a deck. Question ā€” Wtf is a deck?
