I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

In toxic cultures, people get promoted for results even if they destroy relationships. Abuse is a price to pay for high performance.

In healthy cultures, no level of individual excellence justifies undermining people. You’re not a high performer if you don't elevate others.

The TikTok ban, the Musk Twitter takeover, the Facebook moderation policy changes, the Republicans’ rapidly intensifying crackdowns on speech... let these be the proof you needed to move anything you care about online to a space you control.

Digital sovereignty is more important than ever.

The next four years will have to be all about charity-fiscal, emotional, personal…we are going to have to be kinder than we’ve ever been to each other, and more ruthless than we’ve ever been to the opposition. Buckle up.

When you follow a leader, consider what would lead you to withdraw your support.

If the answer is nothing, your integrity is in jeopardy. Your highest loyalty belongs to principles, not people.

No leader deserves unconditional love. Commitment is earned through character.

I suggest that the final bullet should take precedence while addressing the other items
A4: Guidance for new CIOs:

- Get to know the team
- Be seen
- Steadily ramp comms
- Storytell to set the cultural stage
- Listen + learn
- Talk to stakeholders
- Craft your 100 day plan (that's all you have)
- Set top KPIs + measure + adjust
- Get the ear of the board

All love and peace and safety to Los Angeles, my home town ❤️💔

May this be the moment that we realize it’s easier, more fun, more beautiful, to care for each other than it is to abandon each other. And may the future be built on this foundation, in LA, and everywhere, amen.

Blocking Trump Nominees is Up to Us
With several important Congressional Hearings to test the viability of Trump's Cabinet nominees on the horizon, there are still some things that the electorate can do to make their voices heard.
