It has been a while since I last did #reversecasualfriday and today seemed like a good day. I am going for Christmas lunch and the weekend is near 💕

I am wearing red because Christmas, jeans because practical, and candy cane earrings because I like them - also because Christmas 🙂

The conference ended with my keynote “We still don’t have psychological safety”, where I talked about one of my favourite topics. I explained what psychological safety is, why we need it, how leaders play a great part in creating safety. And then about the many signs that we don’t have it.

Last week I spoke at Agile Cambridge, and it was great being back.

I arrived in 18 degrees so started with a walk on campus :)

As always the people and the discussions were the best parts. Some people I had not seen since before the pandemic, some were new, and some I got closer to 💕

I have no kittens, so here is a beautiful sunset from my vacation in Denmark ☀️

You can do this!!!
Sunset from Glyngøre, Denmark. In the front there is grass with several wild flowers; this goes down to the water. The sun is almost “touching” the water, so still a full circle. It is very warm intense orange colour that radiates to the sides

I looked into the closet and this top caught my eye. I realised that it is a long time ago since I was wearing bling for #reversecasualfriday :)

I need more bling in my life, I want more bling in my life <3

This means wearing my lovely dragon dress with pockets and matching dragon ear rings in blue and purple.

And we have sun, which makes any day better 🌞

This is from yesterday and it still counts for #reversecasualfriday as I looked and felt good :)

I combined my colourful rainbow colour-ish dino dress with my new orange cardigan (or hot coral) - thanks to @pejgan.se for finding that. Not visible are my orange rings and matching earrings :)

Long time no #reversecasualfriday :)

Today I used a bit of my energy to dress up in navy blue and baby pink. What you can’t see on the picture is that I am wearing a ring with a fake sapphire with white blink around, and earrings that are also dark blue with white bling around :)

I know it is not #reversecasualfriday so I decided it is #reversecasualtuesday as I dressed up a bit for last day in the office this year :)

The dress has lots of red in it, so it works fine with the nice red hairband and the candy cane necklace with matching earrings :)

One of the few good thing about working from home is that I can wear pants that are too cold to wear outside at this time of year :)

A classic #reversecasualfriday with a white shirt and pants with animal print. I am also wearing black earrings and aa black hairband but that is not visible.

The theme party at #agileTD is always fun. But how do you dress for a theme like “Time Travel”?

Well I went for my dress with star constellations and the first picture of a black hole as you can use black holes to travel in time (maybe).

And my Millenium Falcon earrings because Kessel Run.

Today I double checked that all my tweets are gone except one saying that I have gone to bluesky.

I used Redact to remove the first batch, but it did not take retweets and quotes.

I used a chrome extension to remove the rest: "Tweet Delete - Bulk Delete Tweets"

Lastly I updated my banner
White text on a background that looks like a dark blue sky with stars. The stars are made with small white dots. The text says "I've moved to Bluesky" and next to it is the logo of Bluesky which is a blue butterfly

Many new people here 💕

Some ground rules for me:

Use alt text on picture. Use the option in settings called “Require alt text before posting” to help you remember :)

Start each new word in hashtag with a capital letter #AccessibilitySetting

And block trolls right away instead of engaging.
Screen dump of the top of Accessibility settings in bluesky, where you set up Alt text. It shows that “Require alt text before posting” is enabled and “Display larger alt text badge” is disabled.
