Here from Twitter. Something of a writer. Also a demon working for an ad agency. Often very critical of ad tech, and big tech. Writing seen 1-3 times in each VentureBeat, Tech Crunch, Business Insider (I feel like a grifter now).

You "like posting?" How many posts have you made consecutively with zero engagement at all?

Fuck you, you aren't in it for the love of the game alone, you're one of those validation seekers.

Journalism needs to step up its game. No more reporting the news. Infiltrate the government like spies, do you work for the White House, technically. Are you going to write about it for NBC your real employer, hell yeah it's the future.

Tim Cook, no it's Tim Cooked now.

He's out 1 million dollars in, what I will call a bribe, and will have to shill $4000 iPhones made in the US because he forgot the number one rule of people like Trump is that they cannot deal in tit for tat, because to them anything they get they are owed.

If you talk to a company like this, you will get pulled into a lot of high level discussions. The problem is when these high level discussions are groundbreaking for the founders, it really is work. But they all took a lesson from The Offspring, and so the people you came to for a job love to say "I won't pay, I won't pay ya, no way-ay-ay-ay"

Seeing the reporting that everyone in the Trump admin hated Elon Musk comes as no surprise.

DOGE, The High Mach Startup Founder's Approach To Government

Talking to a high Mach individual means having a patchwork of inconsistent statements, that they will weave together later as any narrative that best suits them.

"I became an entrepreneur to create jobs" is so 2010s. In 2025 people are saying "I wanted to create as few jobs as possible, mostly with remote VAs paid $4.40 an hour in countries without worker protections, who I have use AI to get more done."

Just looked at Twitter, and about half of what I saw was people tagging an AI to explain a joke.

Someone on Twitter: What was the first joke.
Someone else: Your mom.
Next Rando; [at]grok explain why this has 2014 likes
Grok: Because even before white genocide in South Africa your mom was a joke.

*Google CEO high as balls* "What if we make search unusably bad, and give people a button in Gmail that makes whatever they just wrote grammatically correct, but also worse.

Hi [Recipient Name],

I came across a thought experiment that I found amusing and wanted to share: "What if Google's CEO suggested making search less effective while simultaneously introducing a grammar correction button in Gmail that technically fixes errors but degrades the writing quality?"

Just a humorous thought!
