Almost every week I think about the black eyed peas' original version of "Let's Get It Started" and how many people – at so many different levels of production, writing, and marketing – would have greenlit it. Just an absolutely insane thing to happen, even in 2003.

I think it’s a made-for-TV serial that is incorrectly being judged like a blockbuster. Good bit of silly fun that I’ll be more than happy for them to continue releasing every Christmas Eve.

That crikey bit is gross. trans rights are not an “elite” issue they are a human issue and it is also possible for a political party to care about more than a few things at once. Sometimes you don’t have to actually write something. 0/10, do better.

I wrote about how AI plagiarism, and AI-driven media companies, might really bother you - and you’d be right. But a lot of people will probably be just fine with it.

Sydney sandwich joints are only good if the person runnin it is completely dismissive and has an absolute refusal to hire more staff to meet demand (prefers to tell ppl it’s a 30 min wait time). That’s how u know it’s good. I don’t want kindness. Don’t make my sandwich with love.

A good leader takes the blame, even if they don’t think they deserve it. At the very least, that’s what the money is for. The whole SMH x Rebel Wilson thing did not need to be a four day story. And yet.

Feels like an easy win and something youth culture has been crying out for for years. Nostalgic format + talent + low stakes content, for a digital generation. Probably wouldn’t cost a lot, either.

BuzzFeed News will never die because every newsroom in America is trying to (or has tried to) replicate it. Sometimes they do it with hiring - feels like the NYT has taken at least 30% of former staff - or with strategy, or with format. I hope someone figures it out one day.
