Hosting the Olympics and World Cup are going to be impossible. What athlete in their right mind would risk coming to the US now?
Head coach of MMA Australian team Renato Subotic arrived in the US to teach a seminar. Instead he said he was detained at the border: "No clear explanation, no chance to talk to anyone, no rights. They handcuffed me, put me in a car, and drove me to federal prison."

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.

It’s worth noting that the president of the United States today made more racist comments than we’ve seen any president make publicly in, what, a century?

If you run a Saas that sends transactional emails, there is often a lull over the holiday. That lull, and the resulting rebound, is especially pronounced if your clients are in the fitness industry. Transactional email volume for @punchpass.com was down 33% Christmas week. Last week? Up 64% 😅 📈

Yeah they made that a lot more complicated than it needed to be! But it's done.

Just wrote up a recap of our Punchpass team retreat in Phoenix, AZ. Might be helpful if you’re planning or thinking of a retreat for your small company. Or maybe it’s freezing out and you want to see pictures of the desert. 😀. punchpass.com/resources/bl...
