Everyone's aligned until you try to build a website.

[Charlie @Gilbert_Charlie]

@TransaviaAssist It's been resolved now. I got a working link via Whatsapp. Someone should fix the ones on your site though.

[Charlie @Gilbert_Charlie]

.@transavia all the links on your NL site for 'delay compensation' deliver a 404 error - coincidence? After a 12hr delay, I'd just like something to work as promised.

Slow stops are part of racing. Dick move by @McLarenF1 today. Small stain on an otherwise brilliant race. Max’s performance was outrageous…

[Charlie @Gilbert_Charlie]

Decided I need to celebrate more of the small wins. Fucking crushed the salad dressing tonight 💪🏽

Nothing dents the ego more than watching the camera in those automatic passport thingies drop by like a fucking metre after a Dutch person strolls through. Am I really that short??

[Charlie @Gilbert_Charlie]

Just made an appointment for 2026 😳 this Dutch 🇳🇱 panning your calendar in advance thing is really rubbing off on me apparently..

It is literally scripted. All he does is take credit for other people’s wins.

[Dr. Simon @goddek]

Love him or hate him, this is legendary.

After handing Chelsea the Club World Cup trophy, Trump was supposed to leave the podium. He didn’t.

Instead, he stayed up there celebrating with the players, just soaking in the win like one of the squad.

You can’t script this.

[Charlie @Gilbert_Charlie]

Spending some time in the UK at the moment and it’s… warm?

[Charlie @Gilbert_Charlie]

What’s the worst super market in The Netherlands? And why is it the @albertheijn in Westerpark? Couldn’t possibly be the constantly broken recycling machine, awkward layout, or the fact they choose to restock the shelves during peak hours could it?
Hate that it’s my closest 🙁

[Charlie @Gilbert_Charlie]

For the longest time I've toyed with the idea of a blog. I even resurrected some old WP drafts (they're shit) but if I start one in earnest, it's got to be on @Ghost - any writer/blogger followers that don't have them on their radar should change that asap.

[Ghost @Ghost]

NEW: Even more email design settings

Customize your newsletter colors, style buttons, tweak backgrounds, and keep your brand consistent from homepage to inbox 💅

Useless but fun fact: You can italicize emojis (not here, but in Notion and G:Docs and stuff). And spamming it on/off makes them wiggle. 🫨

ChatGpt is experiencing downtime.
LinkedIn is awfully quite.
Coincidence?

[Charlie @Gilbert_Charlie]

Missing this guy every single day.

[Charlie @Gilbert_Charlie]

Saffa dog enjoyed the Amsterdam snow, icicle drool and all.. #CuriousGeorge

[Charlie @Gilbert_Charlie]

Actually, LinkedIn has taken this 👑

Twitter is good for a lot of things but humility isn't one of them.

[Charlie @Gilbert_Charlie]

Independent journalism is important. More of this please!

[Ghost @Ghost]

Publishers on Ghost are growing faster than ever in 2025, and keeping 100% of their revenue 📈

Congrats on hitting $3M ARR!

We are living in a golden age of stupidity.

A stupid Renaissance.

An Industrial Revolution of stupid, with new advances in stupid made every day.

In short: there has never been a better time to be stupid.

[Charlie @Gilbert_Charlie]

Idea for airlines: blanket with different prints on either side - one for “wake me for food” and the other for “do not disturb”. Use symbols to get around language limitations. #UX

@jeroen @Adyen Nice video mate!
