I had an impromptu debate in my head while I was showering this morning on whether it’s better to store writing ideas and work digitally or physically. I tend to do the former. While full writing on a phone is far from ideal—I’m pretty quick on a full, or even consed, keyboard, but the small…
I’ve encountered a couple of scams in the last two days that really stood out to me. It’s just weird to me that people try to pull stuff like this. First, I was at my local Canadian Tire in the Exchanges and Returns line, and a lady a few people ahead of me was trying…
