“So what do you do?”
“I’m retired”
“Wow!! Already??”
“Yes. I was tired yesterday and I’m tired again today”
I want to play too
I think the MOST obvious ones are a bit too obvious so I’d love to hear anything that comes up that’s not that
but if it’s only that then I’ll take that too, it’s also useful info

I genuinely have no idea what I'm most known for
@leeknowlton i didn't appreciate interstellar properly the first time i saw it, had to rewatch after reading @lauren_wilford's review to properly appreciate it
my 2yo (almost 3) asked his mom to show him videos of him when he was 1 and here I am watching him being nostalgic for his distant past half a lifetime ago
please share with me stories of your kids being insufferable shits from 2-4yo and tell me about how they grew out of it 🥲
I love this fucking nerd. If I encountered him on the timeline randomly I would want to be his friend
Parvati deserved better
I am once again recommending that everyone watch Kung Fu Hustle
Rewatching Kung Fu Hustle [2004], one of the best movies ever made
did it hurt? when you felt the weight of the entire universe pressing down on you from every direction?
looks like fun is back on the menu, boys!!
we put on a broadway musical about accounts payable.
slate called it "a glorified ad for a tech company." correct. it was also the most fun we've ever had as a company.
the part i didn't expect was what happened after. a flood of messages from theater folks in new york saying it meant the world to them. billy porter told the crowd that industrials like this paid his rent for decades, until they disappeared in the early 2000s.
for most of the last century, when a company had something to say, it hired composers, choreographers and actors. somewhere along the way we decided marketing should be cheap, measurable and forgettable.
i hope more companies lose their minds a little. make something people feel.

I’m surprised to note that I had never until today considered a gender-swapped Draco Malfoy. Feels like a Harley Quinn level invention
Someone with unlimited free time and severe enough autism should re-write every book, keeping the story generally the same but with Malfoy as the main female love interest. You would be a hero amongst men

reply with top tier PowerPoint slides
a 4yo feeling nostalgic for being 2yo might seem silly and quaint to an adult, but it’s arguably more substantial than what a 40yo might feel about being 20
in my past life I did a ton of reading about marketing for work. a colleague-friend and I did an elaborate infographic summarizing everything we learned, and I think it holds up pretty good. intense amounts of effort to really condense everything – books and books of info

are we any closer to this happening yet
The internet economy needs an investment bank. Prove your cash flows (via Stripe, Shopify, Patreon, etc. APIs) then sell debt or equity to anyone. Tokenize the instrument, so its liquid/borderless. Automate repayment/dividends. Would enfranchise many people.

nobody:
2yo: daddy remember when I was young? I was young. I used to play this game when I was younger. see this game? I love it.
Let’s go let’s go let’s go!!
somehow i had never seen this despite being extremely online all these years: the temporary NYPD HQ set up in Burger King at 106 Liberty Street, during 9/11
