We all need to pause the obsession with Pete Davison & Ariana Grande because Lil Xan & Noah Cyrus are live Instagramming their breakup as we speak and my little pop culture loving heart is liiiiiiving for it.

Obviously I’m bias but she’s impacted how recording contacts are structured, how Spotify does royalties, and more recently how she distributed her concert movie directly influenced Beyoncé to do the same. There’s also a good chunk of artists so have cited her as their inspiration
No one said you actually have to deal with your problems.
You can absolutely just move to another city everytime you feel mildly unsatisfied with your life.
What professionalism is:
- accountability
- empathy
- mutual respect
What professionalism is not:
- a ridged adherence to formal hierarchy
- an absence of self-expression
- the denial of human emotion

In contrast, when I spoke to the employee behind this
@DairyQueen
account, she said she started it on her own and the only communication she's had from HQ was after a few viral videos and it was them saying congrats and they're really proud of her.
That's how you do it 🥳
6 months ago I wrote "Personal Branding for Chaotic People".
I've never shared anything that seemed to resonate w/ people as much as this did—so naturally I shutdown and haven't published anything since.
But I'm getting close to changing that! So, ICYMI:
Hey. If you’ve had to cancel plans because of omicron, I’m really sorry.
After two years of restrictions and grief, you were probably really excited.
It’s okay to be sad, even when it’s the right decision.
“Marketing Twitter”, like most things, is whatever you make of it.
You want shallow growth hacks? You can have that.
You want genuine friends that you meet through a loosely shared interest/profession? You can have that too.
You get what you put out.
I'm moving into a loft with exposed brick next week and not to be dramatic, but this is literally everything I've ever wanted in life. I have no goals left after this.
I've been approached about roles at 3 tech companies this month. A year ago I had almost 0 experience in this industry.
Life comes at you pretty fast when you just fucking go for it.👍
My brain:
Don't say it
Don't say it
Don't say it
Me:
✨Some Personal News!✨
I'll be joining the
@pexels
team as Manager of Strategic Partnerships, focusing on our API.
Thank you
#marketingtwitter
for amplifying my 🧵, and
#techtwitter
I'm excited to get to know you!
1/ Hey
#MarketingTwitter
!
Last week I applied to be a Community Manager at
@Pexels
(
@canva
).
It got my mind racing about how much potential this brings for arts communities, regardless of who fills the role.
So, a 🧵 about a Wikipedia-sized opportunity (tl;dr at the end):
Hello✨
Not sure if this already exists, but I made a Google Calendar of
#TwitterChats
so I'd stop missing them lol
Any cool ones I should add? I'd love to find a few outside of
#marketingtwitter
.

At work we've been running a campaign to defy stereotypes about aging.
So please enjoy these photos of older folks looking significantly cooler than me.

I don’t have enough space to list other times she’s gone well above the norm to help others but I won’t argue that. The more power you have, the more you have a responsibility to help but I think no matter what she does it’ll never be enough for some.
I have almost 3k followers now but I think that is enough.
My posts get enough traction that I'm constantly meeting new interesting people and my offline relatives think I'm famous, but I can also take breaks, be wrong, try new things, etc and no one cares. I like this place.😊
Does anybody else breeze through the first 80% of a project and then your brain is just like "you haven't suffered enough with this one" and the rest becomes impossible?
We get over 40k searches every month for Zoom backgrounds on
@pexels

So you know what? We made an app for that.
Happy launch day,

Just treated myself to this fancy sideboard from a local vintage dealer and I feel all bubbly about it. 🥰
(This is their staged pic, it gets delivered next week)
I need a break from emails.
Comment below and I'll reply with a stock photo that I think matches your vibe.

Ideal set of events:
- TIME names
@rihanna
Person of the Year
- Trump comes after Rihanna on Twitter
- Society loses its mind resulting in the utter chaos required for overthrowing a national leader
- Rihanna takes office
- everyone spends 2018 with clear skin & free education

I run tswift dance parties and we hear this all the time.
They’re not afraid of clubs, they’re afraid of the men and the treatment they’ve come to expect in those spaces.
Marketing Twitter! It's time to update the public
#TwitterChats
Google Calendar.
+ now we need to add Spaces!
Let me know what should be added, removed, and if you're a host and would like edit access for your re-occurring event.
Access it here:
Make sure you’re still changing each day from your nighttime comfy pants into your daytime comfy pants.
We’re almost done year 2 of this pandemonium. Routines are important.
I've aquired a few bot followers this week, and you know what?
I don't discriminate.
Welcome my little R2D2's. Beep beep boop, I hope you enjoy my tweets as much as the flesh bags do.

Once saw a girl tweet "NORMALIZE REVERSING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN YOU MISS YOUR EXIT" and to this day it's still the most chaotic thing I've ever seen on this website. I think about it often lol.
Reminder:
Pierre Poilievre is a strong speaker, but a manipulative one.
In my testimony last year he spent the entire time trying to twist my words. Very weird experience. Can't imagine him being much different as PM.

Hiii 🌞
Pexels is hiring a Lifecycle Marketing Manager and I’d be thrilled if it was filled by a fellow Twitter weirdo.
All remote team. Probably the best work/life balance I’ve ever had. Sits at the intersection of creativity and tech.

If you don't live life as though it's a story with a beginning, middle and end, and just focus on maximizing the time you spend loving what you're doing, it could end anytime and it wouldn't be cut too short.
If you donate blood in Sweden or the UK, you get a text message when the blood gets used.
Such a simple yet effective tool to increase donor retention.🩸
Shout out to those currently seeking their next opportunity who still uphold a "collaboration over competition" mindset.
Spreading opportunity when you're in a position of comfort is one thing, but spreading it while needing your own is something worth recognizing.👏
@TaylorLorenz
A. I'd like to know more about what was classified as hate speech
B. A new one already has over 60k members and also something I've never seen... More people online than are part of the sub.
If you ever feel bad for buying a bunch of domain names before building anything,
just remember there are founders out there hiring 500 employees without a functional product, revenue stream or market share.
Look, I get that 1-page resumes are ideal
but my personality only makes sense if you know that I was president of debate club in high school, so I'm gunna need 3-4 pages at least.
Fun Fact:
The politician (Tamara Jansen) who quoted the bible to defend conversion therapy yesterday also questioned my testimony on a different topic earlier this month.
So anyways, f*ck her, f*ck conversion therapy and God bless the queer community.
