I'm going to start carrying a flask with me to all of my press events (in person and virtual) so I can take a shot every time someone one stage says "work...AND play." I figure my liver will give out around mid-March.

It’s that special time of year when you get to see freshly cut Christmas trees tied to the top of EVs and can’t help but wonder where the compromise came in.

I have had a FedEx package attempt to be delivered 3 times with nary a FedEx truck showing up. That's usually FedEx code for "We lost your package" but I need to wait another week to be sure.

As an editor, I see how some other people write and yeah, ok that makes sense now...

The not-so-secret reality of even pre-Elon Twitter was that it was godawful for clicks. Writers/editors didn't post stories there for readers, they did it to show their industry peers (and maybe subtly flaunt that they'd published first). Even "viral" posts were generally dire for actual traffic.
