Nobody gave us a chance...

We just won the AL East.

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

@carlvellotti Ahhh yes… what my old boss would call the Embrace and Extinguish.

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

@carlvellotti learn to adapt

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

To be clear, I’m too old for “young” to be an excuse. Gonna have to go with blindingly naive.

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

Listening to a 90s rock playlist for my workout and am *shocked* to discover how many weed references young, naive me missed! 🤯

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

I never think “I wish I was less adaptable”, but I do sometimes wish fewer adaptations were required.

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

As a self-proclaimed “storyteller”, I struggle with this all the time. Nuance 1:1 may be incredibly important to convey and worth the time investment. At scale, it’s impossible to land and likely to lose the audience.

[Phil Libin @plibin]

This is very good advice. If your message feels “complete” to you, you probably lost the audience forty minutes ago.

When you get that really important end of year email that your coffee mug’s privacy policy has been updated… 🤨 #technicallyrequired #butwhy

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

@plibin I feel like this phenomenon is rarely documented, due to the terror it induces in the observer. I can offer up “equally side-smirk skeptical about WFH” and “startled by the same thing” (although unclear what said thing was…)

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

@plibin AHHHH! Excellent. If you’re starting to look alike, you know you’re doing it correctly. Merlin and I often have the same disapproving stare…

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

@plibin Tell me more about this dog?! (…over here, asking the important questions…)

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

Hah! That’s excellent. Nick just looked at me like I was some sort of alien attempting to speak English. 🤣

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

Turn on ESPN2 coverage of last night’s Raven’s game.
Me: So it had that one commentator? You know, the quarterback? Not Elon Musk, Not Elton John. Definitely starts with an E?
Spouse: *boggle*
Me, 10min of googling later: ELI MANNING. DANGIT! I WAS TECHNICALLY CORRECT.
Spouse. …

one day you’re young and cool and the next you’re thinking about b2b SaaS

@plibin What’s it cost to make mine green?

[Danny Deraney @DannyDeraney]

Who is ready for baby hippo swim class?

Now that you mention it, I *did* need this today!

[Blue Ivy’s Sunglasses @KingLouie8th]

If anyone needs a little motivation today, call [phone].

It’s a school project where kindergarteners give you a pep talk.

It’s so cute 🥹😅. And it’s automated!

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

A month back in the US and I can genuinely report that the thing I missed most while living in London was full-sized, separate washing machines and dryers. Only needing to run 1-2 loads of laundry a week (versus 1-2 every day) is *delightful*!

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

@lkanies Fair. I’m honestly not sure it’s not just an addictive behavior at this point, which makes it seem worth resetting on principle?

[Jamie Keane @RedOnWheels]

Completed my first work day in over two years where I couldn’t obsessively check my own facial expressions even once. Felt completely natural… until I realized what was happening, then *incredibly* disconcerting. #thethingswevenormalized
