Fox announces $22 billion deal to acquire Roku. This puts Fox's live entertainment, Tubi, and Roku under one roof. Roku reaches over 100 million households.

It appears Ads Manager is back. Facebook is partially back. IG still down.

[Adam Levy @iamadamlevy]

It appears Facebook, Instagram, and Ads Manager are down, at least on desktop.

@Villgecrazylady For the campaigns I've worked on, Capital Grille expenses are typically fundraising lunches. Figure ~20 people, $50 per person = $1,000 per event. Assume 1 event per month x the 9 locations in Texas, and there's your $100,000k+. Not crazy. Not one person doing all the eating.

Cutting off your nose to spite your face.

The word "upsell" probably shouldn't be used in your customer-facing interface.

@elvicentela Please don't

Can't make this stuff up!

Absolute banger by @ericwilson here. Should be mandatory reading for anyone hiring for digital.

What most campaigns actually need at the early stage is guidance on where to start and the discipline to do the daily work themselves.

@ericwilson Not enough people think about the end user's experience. Sad, and it comes with consequences.

Being a social media celebrity seems like the cool and easy path, but in the real world, easy doesn't work.

Instead, do the fundraising. Win votes in-person. Learn how to craft a message that actually resonates.

It's hard, but for good reason.

Should campaigns in 2026 operate like full-time production studios?

Here are my reasons for and against, and why I say absolutely not. 🧵

Your paid spend could way better guarantee that you're reaching your true targets.

And this is where I fall on the issue.

Spend your time fundraising so you can for sure reach your audience. Crazy content production for 99% of candidates will be a net negative time-sink.

New York City spent $81,705 spent per homeless person last year.

AI is a tool. An assistant.

YOU use IT. Don't let IT use YOU.

🚨MIT researchers have mathematically proven that ChatGPT’s built-in sycophancy creates a phenomenon they call “delusional spiraling.”

You ask it something, it agrees. You ask again, and it agrees even harder until you end up believing things that are flat-out false and you can’t tell it’s happening.

The model is literally trained on human feedback that rewards agreement.

Real-world fallout includes one man who spent 300 hours convinced he invented a world-changing math formula, and a UCSF psychiatrist who hospitalized 12 patients for chatbot-linked psychosis in a single year.
