    I once had to prepare a couple of slides for the Gucci marketing team (client) to explain that their sudden burst of brand social mentions was actually because Gucci Mane had just dropped Ferrari Boyz w/ Waka Flocka Fame, not because their Cruise collection was resonating.

    My brother’s girlfriend’s cousin and his family were caught in their vehicle in Maui while the wildfires suddenly erupted around them. No cell service, so Apple Emergency SOS was the only way they could get in contact with first responders. Literally saved their lives.

    The Lyft CEO actually works as a Lyft driver every 6 weeks to make sure he really understands the business. This should be standard in all companies, with few exceptions (I don't think airline CEOs need to fly passengers around lol).

    Saw this posted on LinkedIn as a leader’s recommended reading list (or something along those lines). Once again I am begging of you, please read more fiction. I promise that it will do more for you vs another productivity optimization book.

    This remains and will continue to be one of the most important images of the decade. Our nuclear doomsday clock. We’re probably at 6 o’clock now.

    To be fair, the comeback was excellent and the ratio was earned.

    The absolute wildest deal I’ve seen in a while. Buy out an entire AMC movie theater... for $99. Might do this and only invite myself 🥴
