Fall is here - especially here in Canada. Time to take the required shots of pumpkin spice, and hope that winter stays away for a little while longer.
Link Thought Things
Rach Smith on what happens when you listen to yourself:
Since having kids, I feel like time to be alone and think has diminished. And then in the small gaps of time I have the opportunity to be alone, I fill it with something like a podcast, or reading something on my phone. I realised recently, I’ve been trying to drive out The Mind and its annoying lists that make me feel bad.
Speaking of kids, Geena Davis’ documentary This Changes Everything, should be required family viewing. The documentary looks at gender disparity in Hollywood through the eyes of well-known actresses and female filmmakers.
Apple nerds rejoice: iOS 15, iPad OS 15, watchOS 8, and tvOS 15 are all available this week. Enjoy watching many progress bars slowly move across a screen.

Every September 21st, Demi Adejuyigbe publishes a video celebrating September 21st. This year is apparently his final year doing it.
Either you get why Dave Rupert’s Notion Blogging Kanban is transformational for managing ideas and creating things, or you can’t be my friend anymore. That’s the rules. I don’t make them.
Podcasting Thought Things
Every so often on my 🍋 biz Instagram I ask what podcasts people are listening to - I think you can view the highlights here on my profile - and one that my friend Mike recommended that I’ve been really digging is Heaven Bent.
Season 1 talks about the Toronto Vineyard movement in the 90s/2000’s and, much like The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill, is super interesting to learn more about as someone who grew up hearing about these things at church, but didn’t know what all was going on. Season 2 of the show apparently talks all about Bethel church, which came out of the Toronto Vineyard movement, and is ongoing today.
