Happy Twitterversary! 9 years on this account. And 3 years of disappearing-reappearing followers. Yippee! Perhaps someday they’ll have that sorted out. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🥳

3 rooms of my house flooded. 1 room was being used as storage in preparation for a move. I’ve spent 2 days opening soggy boxes and making piles of wet things for insurance. Can’t throw anything away, yet. Send help. I am not okay. 😭

Murphy’s Law is in full effect this week. Monday I found a huge oversight when double checking my taxes before submitting them. Took all day to sort out.

Tuesday I had 3 appointments—Mammogram, Driver’s License, & PT for my back. Plus, errands whilst out. Wiped me out completely. Planned day off with the intention of plowing through work Wednesday, but…

In the wee morning hours I was awoken by a loud noise. I stumbled blearily toward the 🚽 and caught my foot on my bedroom 🚪 which swung out—I smashed my face straight into it at speed. The right side of my face and forehead are swollen & bruised. 🤕

Today should have started with 1 meeting & then all project work. 😃 That did NOT happen. 😢 Meeting rescheduled. Okay. 👍🏻 Then we found a gas leak! 😱 Gas Co came out. We’re now waiting on plumber to fix dryer connection. Until then, no gas for cooking, laundry, showers, etc.

AND Spectrum is coming to bury our cable tomorrow because they did it wrong. So my Thursday will be interrupted. And I have Drs. A appointment in the AM and then PT at Noon of Friday. Noon. That’s bad for my ADHD 🧠 WTAF ?! 🤬

I report zero work accomplished so far this week and it’s WEDNESDAY. I fear for the remainder of the week’s productivity. 🛟 Please send help. I AM NOT OKAY. 🛟

In 2 hours I am going to church. Hopefully, that will set me back on track. Pray for me. 🙏🏻✝️

You can replace “writing” with so many things and still have a true statement!

A lot of _______ advice is total bollocks.

Off the top of my head, I submit the following: digital marketing, business growth, entrepreneurship, coaching…

What would you add?

[Laura Pence Atencio @SocialSavvyGeek]

Yes! 🙌🏻 I ❤️ @mike_allton & @Agorapulse I’m in for this all day long. Woot!

@ianmiles OMGoodness! At first I thought it was electrified. The reality is even worse (aka better!) 😳

Social media updates you NEED to know:

👀 TikTok is encouraging users to add a dedicated TikTok Search shortcut to their device home screen

🙋‍♀️ Instagram is getting FOMO… And wants people to know that it can be used as a search engine. The platform is running ads and reminding users that you can find “more of what you love with Instagram Search”

👹 LinkedIn is KILLING Creator Mode… Because it’s giving those elements as optional tools for ALL users

🎧 Universal Music Group PULLED all of its music from the platform after failing to reach a new licensing agreement, and initially I thought they’d come to an agreement by now but nothing so far

🗒️ X, FKA Twitter, looks like it’s developing a way for users to share long-form content via native articles with a dedicated article system and link preview card

🤖 Facebook is allowing users to use the feature Write with AI when posting photos, to help craft better captions

🪡 Threads is working on Trending Topics but Adam Mosseri (Head of Instagram) doesn’t think requested features like this will actually help the platform grow or increase usage

📱 Instagram looks like it’s STILL testing grid preview but testing the feature in different positions, some users are seeing it just under the photo they’re editing or in the bottom left corner

🦋 Bluesky, a decentralised Twitter (X) competitor, is now available to ALL users

🥳 Facebook celebrated it’s 20th birthday

📈 YouTube has added analytics for Playlists, and rolled out Content Gap insights which highlights queries related to your YouTube channel that users are searching for / may want to watch

And that's all for now folks. See ya'll next Wednesday for The Social Tea 👋

Working as an entrepreneur is like planting a forest. At first, it's just you and a shovel. But years later, you've created a legacy that provides shade to those you'll never meet. It's not just about money; it's about growing an ecosystem of impact. #BuildYourForest

have you ever landed a job just by applying online?

I don’t think I have… I’ve always had to weasel my way to find a direct contact or make myself known through some other back door

Asking the #writingcommunity: Is anyone else noticing an issue with low #KindleUnlimited reads on weekends?

Or is it just me?

[Mandy Trouten @mandytrouten]

It takes courage to do what you don't want to; but, it also takes courage to refuse when "everyone" supports it. Likewise, it takes courage to do something differently from the norm. Being "popular" has never meant that everyone has to do it--only that a lot of people like it.
