Sometimes you become more dumb

[Vikram Pai @vikpai]

Running a business is just realizing how dumb you were 6 months ago every 6 months

Meta is king 🤴 🙌

[Boring_Business @BoringBiz_]

Meta Instagram Reels is currently doing $50B of run rate revenue

Just Reels alone makes more revenue than Netflix, Nike, Coca Cola, Visa, Spotify, Uber and Airbnb

Let that sink in

Maybe it’s the Gen-Z in me, but i fully don’t care about privacy. I am post-privacy. I am giving OpenAI access to all of my finances, all of my health data, everything, I don’t care anymore

This post by The White House includes graphic imagery while using MY SONG from 7 years ago. Without my permission.

"Hot Like A Parked Car" by Yung Thot only has 1,151 plays, yet the US Government somehow found it and decided to use it in the most awful way.

I posted my song in the replies for you all to hear for yourself. I could use some legal advice on what I can do in this situation.

@TheOnlyDibi Beautiful work 🖥

[Banana Republic @JungleReportFi]

Nobody wants to touch the trash.

Every Monkey is building Digital Apps and Shiny Luxury Vines.

Everyone wants the clean, glamorous business.

Meanwhile the Gorilla who owns the landfill is the wealthiest in the forest.

Quietly. In a truck that smells terrible.

And the Funeral Gorilla is not far behind.

Monkey dies. Family is crying. Cannot think straight.

Cannot shop around. Cannot negotiate.

The Funeral Gorilla hands them a menu anyway.

No reviews. No returns. No "let me sleep on it."

Here is the secret the Republic has noticed:

The most profitable businesses in the jungle are built on two things Monkey cannot escape.

His mess. And his mortality.

As long as there are Monkeys there will be trash and there will be funerals.

High dirt. Higher margins.

The Gorillas getting rich off both are not on Forbes.

They are not at conferences.

They are not posting about their morning routine.

They are just quietly counting leaves. 🍌

Many Black South African parents raise their kids to speak English as their only language, maybe with some Afrikaans thrown in, because this is how they feel they can improve the kids’ future career prospects.

The reasoning is often along the lines of “what will speaking our native language help with?”

This often results in the kids being unable to fit in with their extended families who generally do not use English as a medium of communication.

So, even though the rest of the family and community may speak and hear English, language goes beyond exchanging sentences and pleasantries, it’s a whole culture and way of seeing the world.

And if a parent cannot leave a child alone with family in the township or in the rural areas, then it’s a matter of time before the child becomes detached from that group, a group which is fundamentally the his roots. S/he essentially becomes a tourist in her own lineage.

From a more cynical perspective, one could say the parents are forced by the system to raise their child to become a high-functioning unit for a corporate machine, at the expense of cultural continuity.

Of course, we cannot disregard the fact that this choice is a trauma response to a history, and even a current culture that penalises native tongues.

Because of this, the parents see English as a shield. In their minds English equals mobility, escape from poverty, and maybe most importantly, a lack of accent-based prejudice.

Meanwhile, the mother tongue and its ancestral connection unfortunately have limited horizons, in a strictly capitalist sense.

The tragedy is that parents often don’t realise that this isn’t a zero-sum game.

Research consistently shows that additive bilingualism, that is, learning an additional language is not only possible, but actually improves cognitive flexibility and academic performance.

But the narrow view is how you arrive at a quarter life crisis, where a young admits find it out that they are too Black for the corporate spaces they were raised for, due to structural racism, but too White linguistically and culturally for the community they belong to by blood.

You then end up with a generation of lost people unable to fully enter the house of their ancestors, or the house of their employers.

The tragedy here is that this *very good brand activation* and collab (I still want a hat + book) now feels a bit unserious because a bunch of tech Twitter is proclaiming it to be the best marketing they have ever seen.

Please go outside more. It’s a bit embarrassing.
