If you’re angry for no reason you’re burnt out,
If you’re sleepy for no reason you’re burnt out,
If you’re irrationally mad and your work suddenly looks bad,
Spontaneously apathetic you’re burnt out.

@matthewclifford Isn’t this just bizarrely throwing shade at two astoundingly influential men, neither of whom has been remotely forgotten? 🤷🏻♂️ Baffled.
