This account is now silent. I am keeping it so that I may occasionally read tweets + protect my handle in the hope X might change one day.

"Hello officer, I'd like to report an old man who's stealing strawberries at our store... by paying for it" PS: stores do have the right to establish how they wish to be paid.

Proper NY 🤩 moment tonight. At a Pink Martini concert, with the Empire State as background. Pianist is in the audience and suddenly goes “OMG that’s Nona Hendrix!”. Offers her to come on stage, and they perform impromptu Lady Marmelade with the band. She still got it.

This is pretty neat. Had to cancel my Amex because of fraud, and while the new card is in transit, Amex automatically updated my Apple Pay settings so I could keep using my card with it.

1 in 4 car sales in CA this past quarter were plug-in EV. It is definitely happening, and the decade scenario to EV dominance really doesn't sound implausible at all. blog.ucsusa.org/dave-reichmuth…

This is really wild. Imagine the amount of confidential conversations going on that are now apparently fair game to record for AI training purposes. stackdiary.com/zoom-terms-now…

Tickemaster help chat: "we'll respond within 4 hours". For the fees they charge you think they'd at least be staffed to answer customer questions.

If you follow AI scientists there seems to be a pretty strong consensus that the tech that powers chatGPT (AR-LLM) is doomed to fail and not the right avenue to higher level AI. As the bubble deflates and the dust settles, the cards of who'll win are still shuffling.

Getting a little emotional seeing childhood pics of my mom, full of cute little mischief. She’s turning 70 this year, and life has sucked a lot of that out of her. Having a son puts it all in a new perspective- what it meant to be here, and what it’ll mean to be him, one day.

I can't wait for the "as featured in [insert Burger King ad]". Thankfully McD know not to promote their competitors in their own ads, but that would definitely make me giggle as an OOH execution at industry/awards event.

Sales are so frequent in the fashion industry that as far as I’m concerned they’re just the price a brand is worth and I refuse to ever buy “full price”. And I feel like the age of e-commerce / CRM has greatly accelerated this, with a lot more choice.

Reminder the best meteor shower of the year is this weekend. If you have clear skies spend 30 min lying down and looking up, there can be up to 100 shooting stars an hour!

How do you sell EV to people who think climate change is a democratic hoax? Great article full of insights on the battle to electrify hearts and minds. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

Some movies have very strong before and after having kids experiences. Inside Out is definitely one of those. Before kids you experience it as the girl. After kids, you experience it as the parent.

As a kid who was socially awkward and struggled to connect with other kids (some things don’t change…) it’s hard to express how happy it makes me to see my son having a total blast with his friends at daycare. He walks in the morning shouting a “yeaaah!” echoed by the room. 🥲

If it weren’t for y’all I would have left this place a long time ago. But it’s time for me to take a break from Twitter for a while, without any clue whether this will have an expiration date. Take care of yourselves, my sweet brain feeders and daily source of inspiration.
