I worked for Elon and Bezos, but I left their crooked industry to reinvent myself in midlife. I write about music, self-promotion, and consciousness.

I've worked in companies of every size.
The startups wanted to grow. And that made sense. They're startups.
But the big companies with 11 figure market caps also wanted growth.
There's such an emptiness to chasing perpetual growth just for its own sake.
I'm pursuing something greater than that.

This is all happening because not enough of us were engaged enough in life.
As long as enough of us get engaged enough in life again…
This horrible little thing will die the death that it deserves to die.

Such an important message. Please circulate.
So many videos are circulating of ICE agents acting with cruelty and aggression. Behavior that eerily mirrors the “domestic terrorism” they claim to oppose. No one is forcing them to act this way; it’s a choice.

If you fight the dying as they’re going down, they’ll pull you into the grave with them.

When I worked in the tech industry, I had a team in The Ukraine.
They were the most wonderful engineers, product managers, and designers I’d ever worked with.
And of course, the most wonderful people.
I always felt like we had so much to learn from them.
It turns out…

When Elon Musk, and others, talk about “the left” or “liberals,” basically what they mean is people who aren’t assholes.

I don’t know if anyone gives a mouse’s bottom, but I’ve just started a new music project and it’s pretty interesting.
If you’re a musician you should follow me because I’m really good at self-promotion and I will teach you how to be better at it.

I keep trying to figure out Bluesky.
I think it’s more grown up than other platforms (even though it’s younger).
Do you feel that too?

If you’re in the early stages of building a business and eager to start making a lot of money…
Don’t rush.
Focus on making a great product.
This is the best way to make the most money (the most quickly).

I see the Republican Senators as victims of Trump.
And I think as long as we act like they’re our enemies, they’re never going to come around.
Anyone agree?
