I was almost failed out of my high school AP English class for partially plagiarizing a single paragraph from Wikipedia on a 15 page paper. This was almost 20 years ago.

Podcasts are not educating you. If anything they’re making you dumber. You are not having enough real-world conversations so you’re supplementing by listening to other people have conversations.

Putting “—maxxing” at the end of any word in the dictionary is not a trend. It is the final trend, the zenith of all language. All hopes of future vernacular have been crushed by a world where any word can instantly be converted into a trend-launching superlative.

At some point after the age of 30, you sacrifice your “Limitless Self” in exchange for your “Limited Self.”

It took a while, but I finally learned that it’s best for me to be an author and nothing else.

I’ll just be asking my dog the most unanswerable existential questions all day long like “are you the best boy?” and “how did you get so scruffy?” and “what are these little teefies for?” and then wonder why he needs to sleep 17 hours a day

Listen, I’m all for condemning how cozied up Trump is to Putin BUT I don’t like these memes I keep seeing with Trump and Putin in some sort of BDSM relationship with Putin as the dom Like the left is supposed to be the party championing sexual expression right? +

Roll out the red carpet.....

You: Oh my god the house is on fire! Me (wise, has read books): And you're surprised? Houses have been on fire before [as the flames consume us both] Furthermore,

After you acquire a billion dollars you should have to start the game over at a higher difficulty level

Kinda funny how tech companies working on LLMs just started calling those LLMs “AI” for marketing and PR reasons and all of culture just went along with it without a single thought

A lot of people at DICE told me I have to get on LinkedIn. I don’t wanna. Please don’t make me. What people don’t understand about LinkedIn is that it’s poor for three primary reasons. ✅ it’s a role playing platform for punditry ✅ it rewards exactly the kind of people I avoid ✅ rule of threes

Oh you paused the video? you don't want to watch it? how about if it was smaller and following you down the page?

Being in your 30s means you can fuck up your neck for two weeks just by sleeping on a shitty pillow for two days.

I'm old enough to remember when Google's motto was "Don't be Evil". How times have changed.

I'd really appreciate it if the rap and hip hop artists I loved in high school would just stop revealing themselves to be terrible people. My nostalgia playlist is shrinking pretty much by the day at this point.

Philadelphia is a great case study for why it could be tremendously beneficial for entire cities to receive therapy.

I'll watch the super bowl and talk man stuff like setting up the pass with a good run game But I'll do so while drinking herbal tea all cuddled up underneath a nice cozy blanket You don't need to be just one thing.

Silicon Valley be all like "You didn't want to buy our monkey jpgs and conduct meetings with VR headsets, I guess we have no choice but to start WW3"

I don't know about you, but I'm really tired of people who don't know what they're talking about doing all the talking.

Netflix became YouTube 2.0 Just another example of the content machine’s relationship to the attention economy. As platforms react to decreasing attention spans, they take part in further decreasing said attention spans, which then causes them to create even more “attention-grabbing content.” +

Remember when Netflix’s mission was to be a bastion for true artistic expression? Now it’s a wall of YouTube-style thumbnails featuring mindless content designed to grab your attention in the first 5 minutes before your dopamine-starved brain kicks at you to move on. Oh how far we’ve come…

It's appropriate that this sentiment comes after the industry realized that they haven't done anything useful in 20 years so they descended into mass psychosis over tech that does nothing but purports to do everything

Marvel receives backlash for AI on Loki posters Marvel receives backlash for AI on Secret Wars opening Marvel receives backlash for AI on Fantastic 4 posters Guys I think maybe they just don't care

“Soon AI will be able to write like a human.” Uhhh really? Most humans can’t even write like humans. Hop on any social media platform and you’ll see a mix of recirculated jargon, parroted opinions, industry terminology, and hopping on trends for the sake of hopping on trends. +

It’s not so much a panic “attack” at this point, it’s more of a standing appointment we have in the morning where we meet for coffee

TOP 10 WORST MARKETING STRATEGIES 10. There aren’t 9. Any marketing tactics 8. In business history 7. That deserve to be 6. Called the worst 5. Because each strategy 4. Has its own 3. Purpose 2. That makes it effective in the right context 1. Not optimizing for mobile

It’s actually shocking how much of a dumpster fire LinkedIn has become. It’s full of people making weird jokes, talking politics, complaining, and the occasional “thought leader” jerking themselves off. To be clear, I’m down for the first three, JUST NOT ON LINKEDIN. +

ME: *writing in my journal with the sole aim of pissing off future historians and archaeologists* I returned to my home - which is built in the usual style - by the normal way, and prepared and ate dinner in the way I often but not always do

Took me 10 years to revolt against daycare and go self employed But even with my newfound freedom I’m thankful for everything I learned about fingerpainting and the times they let me go down the slide

Dear writers and copywriters, Anything can be a word if you write it with enough conviction.

Okay so I know billionaires are trying to subjugate the population through oligarchic concentration of power and algorithmic mind control… But also #LinkinPark got a new singer and released their first album after like 6 years and this woman fucking RIPS dude. So yeah life isn’t too bad I guess

How do we defeat the oligarchy? Unfortunately contemporary society is designed for us to lose. There is nothing more powerful than a united front of billionaires in a corporatist society. There are only two possible counters to something like this: the government and the people. +

There were better shows on Netflix when it cost $10 a month

The ultimate “life hack” is the way content algorithms have hacked the minds of everyday people.

Will the fractional CMO ever find their missing puzzle piece? Will they ever again be a complete, whole CMO?

What do you mean I’m contradictory? *Adds creatine to matcha tea*

What happened to letting tragedies be tragedies? Please stop politicizing the fires in LA. People are hurting, dying, losing their homes. Let the tragedy be a tragedy. There’s no need to add onto it.
