I’ve written so many decks for my main client this past year that I just can’t anymore. I used to revel in slide design, now I just want something on the screen so I can talk instead.

Finally I’ve gotten to the stage of my career as a strategist where I say things like “maybe we can do this in less slides?”

@ben_perreira And oh, to not be afraid of being wrong. Being ok with failure seems very important imo. That will allow you to test your way forward and iterate until you find the solution.

@ben_perreira I know curiosity gets mentioned a lot. But I wonder if it’s a bit more than that? I think the ability to doubt things in a helpful way is essential. To highlight problems others don’t notice, in order to land a more unexpected solution. Having an outsider perspective, basically.

Well that didn't take long. We decided to take a trip on Amtrak with the kids for spring break. 9 hours into a pleasant ride, a man was suddenly standing next to me, shouting across me at my 6yo son, "Remember what I told you. They stole you. They're pedophiles." 🧵

Why we can't stop saying gay, a story

On the first day of my senior year of high school, a new boy showed up in my AP English class.

He had transferred from a prestigious private school to my public school, and I was confused.

I asked him why he moved and he shrugged

I have something to say about the garlic press. It’s inefficient, wasteful and a ballache to clean up. Creates more mess and trouble than it saves under the guise of being quicker and easier. It’s duplicitous and it’s been getting away with it for too long.
