Shared by Rebecca Lynn Hutcheson RN- "Wake up America... just one more Medical Professional putting their life, career and reputation on the line... Published on Jul 1, 2019 Neonatologist Dr. Paul Byrne, president of the Life Guardian Foundation, addresses the 2019 John Paul II Academy for Human Life and Family conference in Rome. May 20, 2019. Hear his voice it can save the life of your loved one... this is a long video, so go to the last 11 minutes and start there ...It is imperative for you to hear all when you have the time... I know this one first hand, a year ago this month my daughter was in ICU on a ventilator unresponsive they said. But she was unresponsive and, why did they have her on a high dose of Fentanyl? They were setting my daughter up for failure and then so she could be an organ donor ..had I not had the medical background that I did and another critical care nurse that I could reach out to they would have been successful and harvesting her organs and my daughter would not be here today... My daughter is the love of my life and it breaks my heart to think about all the families that were convinced that there was nothing left to do and signed those organ harvesting papers. When they kept telling me that my daughter was unresponsive I had to fight with them to pull her off the fentanyl. I told them you cannot possibly determine neuro status with that strong opiate. They told me that it was to keep her comfortable . I said she doesn't need to be kept comfortable if she's comatose she doesn't know anything, take her off the drug. What I was screaming on the inside was not what I could verbalize, I had to be more patient and kind because you can get thrown out of these rooms, yes that is true, they can remove you from your childs side.. So not only am I trying to save my daughter I'm trying to keep my composure , when I know what they are doing is so wrong. Another example of them setting my daughter up for failure is normal platelet count is 150000 to 400,000 my daughter's was 60, 000 that means that she was under normal limits that means that her blood was not clotting and this is why all of her IV sites were bleeding.. The CCU doctors wanted to start her on heparin, Heparin makes the blood thin for somebody who's got thick blood . my daighter was already well below limits and I said absolutely not, she is already thrombocytopenic(low platelets a bleeding disorder) Those 4 doctors come up against me again telling me "this was protocol she'll throw a clot, she could have a stroke." I said "there's no way for her to clot she has no platelets " and then I pointed at the Carousel of drugs they had her on and I said" those will drop her platelet count even lower." I had to sign refusals , this Heparin they wanted to put her on with no clotting factors already could/ would have caused a brain bleed in my child. I know the side effects of these Dangerous Drugs, but how many people do not? how many people do not even know what normal lab values are? without having all of the information and knowing what you need to know how can you make the right decision? It sickens me to the core of my being to know this is happening... If you want to gain some inside knowledge before you're ever put into this position watch this video in in its entirety. It's an hour and 11 minutes long if you don't have time, go to the last 11 minutes. Normally I don't have time to take and spend an hour watching a video because of school and all my other duties in my home with my animals, but when I started watching this video it brought back a lot of what I had to go through , people need to know this information. You have a doctor here trying to do the right thing but even with his background couldn't make things happen in a hospital setting. There's something very criminal taking place in our medical system and we just have to be aware of it."

Q4. DuJuan was engaged to my younger cousin. We met at our family reunion several years ago. We f-cked for months. I told him I’m a wife not a SideChick and he left my cousin for me. When we got engaged, my (DramaQueen) cousin tried to commit su!c!de. This has caused a huge split in my family. I married DuJuan and we have 3 kids. We were meant to be. I’m a thick woman and I’m proud of it. I used to hit the gym 3x a week until I twisted my ankle. For a year I’ve been working from home, making Little Debbie Zebra Cake smoothies, cooking butter-drenched gourmet burgers and gaining weight like a champ. I own that. It’s my fault. DuJuan told me he’s not attracted to me anymore. He asked me to join the gym with him. I refused; I’m still the woman he married, no matter what I look like. He withheld s3x so I cut him off, too. (Not that he was asking for it). Six months into my s3x strike, I went to the gym to make amends with my husband and improve my health/appearance. I was completing the membership application when my husband DuJuan emerged from the locker room, and a younger booty-enhanced female was waiting on him. DuJuan was adjusting his print 🍆 and the female was blushing like a school girl in love. I shouted DuJuan’s name. Him: “What are YOU doing here?” Lots of shouting and name-calling. We’re ushered outside where DuJuan said “You forced me to see someone else.” He has apologized. We’re in counseling. DuJuan says for the sake of our marriage and our kids, we shouldn’t divorce and I need to accept his decision to see other women. I believe he just opened our marriage, and I THINK that gives me options, too, right? What to do? Fight for him or let it go? #SBCCHAT

This is absolutely HORRIFIC😭💔. I literally just cried my eyes out listening to this lady and I can’t stop crying. She is in Western North Carolina and wants to let us know what is actually happening there because the News is NOT covering it. She’s in charge of dispatch and operations and all the leads are coming into her and she’s vetting everything. She said this will be going on for months and she will be helping them until that community is rebuilt and they are no longer needed. She’s also worry that people will forget about North Carolina. The fact is she’s been assisting with the running missions and dispatch for an operations team. They’ve been running 70 missions a day getting help to the people who are NOT getting help right now. This is FIRST HAND knowledge, the death toll of 200ish that’s being reported is NOT accurate. Her organization sent out 10,000 body bags to local authorities this week and they are requesting more💔💔💔. They have spoken to the funeral homes and the refrigeration trucks that they’ve brought in and there’s 1,000 in this town and 800 in another town and 500 in another and they are finding more bodies every day, this is an ongoing process😭💔. They have cadaver dogs and med teams going out and it’s not only deaths from this storm, but deaths since the storms. PLEASE listen to her whole video because she tells you exactly what they are doing and how they’re helping and also how we can help because the need is so high. PLEASE help if possible🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 I’m gonna sound stupid for telling this story, but it’s ok to sound stupid if I feel it will help. Last week I saw a chance to NOT only go to Coachella for Trump’s rally, but also saw a chance to meet President Trump and take pictures with him and I told my hubby let’s pay that amount and let’s do that and he said ꪻꫝể if you really want to do that, I’m not gonna stop you, but I know you and I know you would rather take that money to help the victims of Hurricane Helene and he’s absolutely right…

POWER GHOST SEASON 4 FINALE 🍿 Yall idk … I get it … but idk … this was lowkey the happiest finale ever , & I think I’m not use to it. I feel like Power has turned me into a monster because I just be expecting the worst to happen and when it doesn’t , I be disappointed 😭 I’m use to being traumatized after a Power Finale . This one was “cute” lol I’m happy Noma & Carter got dealt with, & I knew Anya was leaving because that was the only way to make Noma feel how they felt , but I didn’t expect all of the Tejada kids to live . Dru going off to be Picasso. Diana wanna be Mary J Oblige so bad like girl go to school & move out of that house cause it’s full of demons , it need an exorcism 😭 . Cane on the run with Effie savings for school 🤦🏾‍♂️ , but idk how he even escaped that scene unless the floor opened up like the BET awards lmao . Effie really gave her school savings away and all she got was a kiss on the forehead . At least get some MEAT 🍆 , you acting vegetarian . I honestly thought she was gone go with him or something. You back at square one working under Tariq 🤦🏾‍♂️ I just don’t know Tariq got a happy ending for right now 😂 no enemies , Nico & the police on his side , clean slate , moving Tasha and them witness protection bobs out of witness protection , & working with Noma brother Ricky Dillard , but will be a “ghost” in everything . So I get what they did, but I think they missed out on a lot of potential things they could’ve done. I rolled my eyes when I seen Jenny “Quagmire” Sullivan & thick tongue casaBLANCA 😭 & obviously the spin off is coming & he going to Power Force with Tommy . That should be cool seeing Tariq Tommy & Diamond & last season Tommy & Diamond wasn’t super solid so we might see Tommy & Tariq vs Diamond & Jernard . No Monet funeral or anything is crazy. I know she going to hell but damn 😂 Lil Durk did his lil 4-5 scenes and got up out of there looking like Libby from Jimmy Neutron . But yea I’m in the middle about the finale . I understand it but i wanted more HEAT . CANE THE MVP of Season 4 🏆 . He had the best acting fr . Woody McClain #powerghost #powerbook2ghost #powerbook2 #powerbookii #powerbookiighost

Major PROBLEMS REVEALED with alleged OFFICIAL AUTOPSY REPORT from Charlie Kirk assassination. - Charlie Kirk allegedly had his C2 vertebrae broken first, then all the way through the C7 vertebrae. - The bullet would have to turn almost 90 degrees down to accomplish this feat, number 1, then they found the bullet in the "meaty" area, around T1. - If this is said to be 100% the truth and accurate, this would mean that from where Tyler was positioned, and taking in consideration of the angle from the rooftop, the bullet would have had to enter through his mouth/jaw. NOT 3"-5" inches lower. This makes NO SENSE and BREAKS the laws of physics and ballistics. Then we take in the most TELLING FACT of it all, which is that there is NO WAY a .30-06 round would act this way, number 1. Number 2, there is NO EXIT WOUND. Which is almost comical at this point that they expect us to believe that they found a .30-06 round right beneath the skin. The amount of damage the exit wound would have caused would have been tremendous. A .30-06 would go through a 1/2" inch thick steel plate, no problem and will go right through and shatter elk bone easily at 500 yards. Charlies was in no way shape or form shot with a .30-06 and he could not have been shot where they claim Tyler was if, in fact, the autopsy report is 100% accurate. I believe many of you are starting to catch on. The motive and the way many are acting that were close to him are just not adding up. Something is very wrong and I know you all know it. We need to continue to point out the facts and inconsistencies to uncover the truth of who is really responsible for Charlie's assassination. cc: Owen Benjamin

Alberta boots graphic smut from school libraries—media cries 'book banning' This isn't censorship. It's protection. It's sanity. It's Alberta saying: Not our kids. Not anymore. It's not censorship to keep dick-wagging, gender-wang books out of the hands of little kids. And if you disagree, honestly, your hard drive—and your head—need a full forensic scan. Alberta's government just took the most reasonable step imaginable: keeping graphic sexual content—some of it too obscene to show adults at a press conference—out of school libraries meant for children. These books are too graphic to show you in this video, but I will include a link to the Alberta government Dropbox so you can see them for yourself. And the response to that smart move to keep smut away from little ones? Media meltdown. NDP hysteria. Establishment freakout. Let's run the highlight reel: ⚫️Alberta media had access to that same government Dropbox full of these explicit book excerpts before the press conference. They saw the strap-ons, blowjob sexts, group cum dares—the whole parade of degeneracy… and still called it "book banning." Absolute weirdos. ⚫️A former cabinet minister in Alberta, Thomas Lukaszuk, asked where the "book burning" event would be—because, apparently, saying "maybe 5-year-olds shouldn't read about sex toys" now makes you Hitler. ⚫️A Sportsnet journalist, Mark Spector—yes, really—chimed in with, "Who asked for this?" Mark, buddy, parents asked. You know, the people whose kids are being handed cartoon porn by government-paid librarians. ⚫️And the cherry on top? An Alberta NDP MLA, Lori Sigurdson, rushed to condemn the move, defending, let's be clear here, keeping graphic pornography available to elementary-age students. That's the hill they want to die on: "Let the little kids have the porn." Let me be absolutely clear: This isn't about banning books. It's about banning garbage. It's about saying: "No, Grade 3 kids don't need to read about strap-ons and oral sex during library time." If it's too graphic for the 6 o'clock news, it's too graphic for a six-year-old. The freaks defending this filth are so far removed from normal people, they might as well be speaking Martian. Normal people—parents—don't want their kids reading "vagina slime" erotica at school. This isn't censorship. It's protection. It's sanity. It's Alberta saying: Not our kids. Not anymore. Not today, Satan.

🔆 The Redox Recipe No More DMs 🙏 Sorry, I can’t do DMs anymore. Every morning I wake up to 9–20 messages. If I answer one by one, I help a few. If I answer here, we all learn. So let’s do this in the open; because sunlight belongs to everyone. I understand everyone’s frustration..believe me, I’ve been there. I spent a full year in the hospital with one of the deadliest Systemic Lupus. Few walk out alive. I lost my kidneys, almost lost my lungs, spinal cord, intestines, and few other organs… The only reason I’m here writing this is because I signed a waiver refusing more “treatment.” I told the doctors I’d rather die at home..and that’s when life began to return. If you’re desperate like I was, you must walk the talk.(today is 14° but with the wind feels 9/10) No supplement, no pill, only what’s truly necessary (like my transplant medication, without which I wouldn’t survive). As ☣️ Pleb Kruse = BTC foundationalist in exile 🟩🔆 said: If your body’s make it, don’t take it.” No doctor can fix what your light environment broke 1. You can’t heal in the same environment that made you sick. If your location is toxic, move. Period 2. 🌞 Sunrise is non-negotiable. Watch it with naked eyes, bare skin, and bare feet on the ground. That’s how your circadian clock resets — your mitochondria’s morning meeting with the heartbeat of the Earth (or God — call it what you want) 🍱 3. Eat the light your environment provides. Minimum 70% seafood, cooked gently to protect DHA. Add oysters, seaweed, and wild fish, those don’t need to be local. The remaining 30% must be local fruits, vegetables, and meats grown under your local sunlight. Foreign food = foreign light code = inflammation and lost redox. 🦶 4. Ground daily. Barefoot on earth, sand, or water (sea, rivers, lakes). Avoid places with underground cables or transformers. You’re not “earthing”..you’re plugging back into Nature’s current. 👚5. Wear natural fibers only. Cotton, linen, wool. They let your body exchange electrons freely. Synthetic fabrics trap static and block your electric field . no bueno 😬 📡6. Escape high-EMF zones. If your home sits near a tower, radar, or airport(like mine) plan your exit. I’ll move in 2 years when our work contract ends. Until then, I sleep in an EMF-shielding bag, wear protective clothing head-to-toe, and spend every vacation in nature(far from cities) Know this: staying long-term will cost you years of life. 🏠7. Inside your home: Unplug what you don’t need. No microwave, no blender, no electric toothbrush, no Wi-Fi (use ethernet cables). At sunset, switch to candles or one dim red/incandescent bulb. No TV, no screens. When the sun sets, so should you. Darkness is your natural melatonin therapy. Sunrise and darkness are the yin and yang of life…,one cannot exist without the other. 🥶8. Cold Thermogenesis (CT). Cold water is your internal light switch. It structures your cellular water, tightens your charge, and rebuilds your semiconductors. Start with cold showers; progress to ice baths. Make light from within. 🫡 9. Respect your temperature environment. If it’s hot ; feel it. If it’s cold; embrace it. Your temperature is the “seconds hand” on Nature’s clock:⏰ Sunlight = hour hand Darkness & magnetism = minute hand Temperature = seconds hand That’s how time is written in biology. 🎯 10. Location, Location. The older we get, the more we need the sun. If you live in high latitudes and don’t embrace cold; move. It’s useless to live in the North wrapped in a down jacket. Cold is not the enemy; it’s the teacher. 🍫11. Carbohydrates. If you live near the equator, you can eat them ..sunlight will handle the deuterium load. But if you live in higher latitudes (4 seasons), carbs are only for summer and must be local. Winter means carnivore mode; that’s Nature telling you to “hibernate.” Humans are walking bears ..we don’t sleep all winter, but we must create light inside through DHA and cold. Start with these few steps, and your new life will unfold.. REDOX ARE 🔑

Like seemingly everyone on this app I have plenty of opinions about Twitter > X and figure now is a good time to open up a bit about my experience at the company. I tweeted for years into the void for the love of it like many of you, but after selling my startup to Twitter in 2020 I finally got to see it from the inside. Up close it was both amazing and terrible, like so many other companies and things in life. As someone with a maniacal sense of urgency built into me, Twitter often felt siloed and bureaucratic. Dumb power plays, reorgs and team name changes for the sake of someone’s ego were distractions that occurred too regularly. You couldn’t just be a builder — you also needed to be a politician. I was shocked by how old and bespoke the infrastructure was, but there was little will to think beyond quarterly earnings calls because we were all beholden to the masters of mDAU and revenue growth as a public company. It often felt like things were held together with duct tape and glue, and that many people had just accepted that a small product change could take months or quarters to build. Management had become bloated to accommodate career growth and the company culture felt too soft and entitled for my own taste. Healthy debate and criticism was replaced by a default refrain of “no, that can’t be done” or “another team owns that so don’t touch it”. Teams could spend months building a feature and then some last-minute kerfuffle meant it’d get killed for being too risky. Just talking directly to customers could turn into a turf war and create deadlocks between functions. I recall one such episode where a teammate spent a month trying to get clearance to reach out to some creators. He went through 3 layers of management and 6 different functional teams. In the end 4 executives were involved in the approval. It was insanity, and unfortunately I saw several top performers get burnt out and demoralized after exhausting experiences like that. Most people were good at their jobs but it was nearly impossible to fire poor performers — instead they got shuffled around to other teams because few managers had the will or resources to figure out how to get them out. A high performance culture pulls everyone up, but the opposite weighs everyone down. Twitter often felt like a place that kept squandering its own potential, which was sad and frustrating to see. The person who was best at cutting through the BS and inspiring a vision during my tenure was Kayvon Beykpour, but he wasn’t fully empowered to run the company since he wasn’t the CEO. Despite those real issues, I was lucky enough to work with some of the most talented people in the business at Twitter in product, design, engineering, research, legal, BD, trust & safety, marketing, PR and more. Often it was a small cross-functional team of intrinsically motivated people who made the biggest impact by challenging some core assumption. Those teams were very fun to be on but they felt like the exception rather than the rule. The months of waiting for the deal to close in 2022 were particularly slow and painful; it felt like leadership hid behind lawyers and legal language as all answers about the company’s future notoriously included the phrase “fiduciary duty”. Colleagues openly talked about how Twitter was being sold because leadership didn’t have conviction in their own plan or ability to fix longstanding problems. Although I didn’t know much about Elon I was cautiously optimistic – I saw him as the guy who built incredible and enduring companies like Tesla and SpaceX, so perhaps his private ownership could shake things up and breathe new life into the company. My take on what’s happened since then is full of lived nuance. When people ask why I stayed it’s easy to answer: optimism, curiosity, personal growth and money. From the beginning I saw that some changes Elon was going to make were smart and others were stupid, but when I’m on a team I uphold the philosophy of “praise in public and criticize in private”. I was far from a silent wallflower. I shared my opinions openly and pushed back often, both before and after the acquisition. I made peace with the fact that I didn’t have psychological safety at Twitter 2.0 and that meant I could be fired at any moment, and for no reason at all. I watched it happen repeatedly and saw how negatively it impacted team morale. Although I couldn’t change the situation I did my best to shine a light on folks who were doing important work while being an emotionally supportive leader for those who were struggling to adapt to the more brutalist and hardcore culture. In person Elon is oddly charming and he’s genuinely funny. He also has personality quirks like telling the same stories and jokes over and over. The challenge is his personality and demeanor can turn on a dime going from excited to angry. Since it was hard to read what mood he might be in and what his reaction would be to any given thing, people quickly became afraid of being called into meetings or having to share negative news with him. At times it felt like the inner circle was too zealous and fanatical in their unwavering support of everything he said. When individuals encouraged me to be careful about what I said I politely thanked them and said I would not be taking their advice. I had no interest in adding to a culture of fear or walking on eggshells around Elon. Either he would respect me for being real or he could fire me. Either outcome was okay. I quickly learned that product and business decisions were nearly always the result of him following his gut instinct, and he didn’t seem compelled to seek out or rely on a lot of data or expertise to inform it. That was particularly frustrating for me since I believed I had useful institutional knowledge that could help him make better decisions. Instead he'd poll Twitter, ask a friend, or even ask his biographer for product advice. At times it seemed he trusted random feedback more than the people in the room who spent their lives dedicated to tackling the problem at hand. I never figured out why and remain puzzled by it. I don’t think things had to be as difficult or dramatic as they turned out to be but I can’t say I’d bet against Elon or count him out. He’s smart and has enough money to make a lot of mistakes and then course correct when things go awry. As the largest shareholder he can tank the value in the short-term, but eventually he’ll need things to turn around. His focus on speed is incredible and he’s obviously not afraid of blowing things up, but now the real measure will be how it get reconstructed and if enough people want the new everything app he is building. I learned a ton from watching Elon up close – the good, the bad and the ugly. His boldness, passion and storytelling is inspiring, but his lack of process and empathy is painful. Elon has an exceptional talent for tackling hard physics-based problems but products that facilitate human connection and communication require a different type of social-emotional intelligence. Social networks are hard to kill but they’re not immune from death spirals. Only time will tell what the outcome will be but I hope X finds its footing because competition is good for consumers. In the meantime, I have a lot of empathy for the employees who are working tirelessly behind the scenes, the advertisers who want a stable platform to sell their stuff on, and the customers who are experiencing chaotic updates. It’s been a madhouse. Twitter moved at the speed of molasses and suffered from bureaucracy but now X is run by a mercurial leader whose instinct is driven by the unique and undoubtedly weird experience of being the biggest voice on the platform. Many of you know me from the sleeping bag incident where I slept on a conference room floor, so I figure, let’s talk about that too. Going viral was an odd and interesting experience. I was attacked by people on the left and called a billionaire bootlicker, while simultaneously being attacked by people on the right for being a working mom who was demonized as an example of a woman choosing her career over her family. Thankfully I can laugh at myself and I don’t take armchair keyboard ideologues too seriously. Being the main character on the timeline, even for a few minutes, requires a thick skin and a strong sense of self. The real story is pretty simple. I was given a nearly impossible deadline for his first project and as the product lead I would never ask anyone to do anything I wasn’t willing to do myself. So I worked round the clock alongside an amazing team spanning many timezones, and we delivered it on schedule – truly against the odds. It was intense but also fun. Those first few months were wildly crazy but I wanted to be there and I have no regrets. Showing up and giving it your all should, in most cases, be celebrated. Obviously you can’t work at that pace forever but there are moments where bursts are mission critical. I’ve pulled many all-nighters in my career and also when I was a student for something that mattered to me. I don’t regret putting in long hours or being ambitious, and feel proud of how far I’ve come from where I started thanks in part to that type of work ethic. I think of life as a game, and being at Twitter after the acquisition was like playing life at Level 10 on Hard Mode. Since I like taking on difficult challenges I found it interesting and rewarding because I was growing and learning so rapidly. I realize our society today trends toward polarization but when it comes to this app, its owner, and its future, I am neither a fangirl nor a hater — I’m an optimistic pragmatist. This may really irritate the internet but you cannot pigeonhole me into some radical position of either loving or hating every change that’s occurred. I escaped my fundamentalist upbringing and am a free thinker these days. Everyone can be seen as both a hero or a villain, depending on who is telling what angle of the story. Elon doesn’t deserve to be venerated or vilified. He’s a complicated person with an unfathomable amount of financial and geopolitical power which is why humanity needs him to err on the side of goodness, rather than political divisiveness and pettiness. I disagree with many of his decisions and am surprised by his willingness to burn so much down, but with enough money and time, something new & innovative may emerge. I hope it does. Sometimes I get asked about how I felt when I got laid off, and the truth is it was the best gift I’ve ever received. Sure the headlines and punchlines wrote themselves but I was battle hardened by then. I knew that I’d worked in a way where I could walk out with my head held high. I have no bitterness about the Product Management team being dismantled, and it made sense for me to exit as nearly all of the remaining PMs were let go. Going on a sabbatical afterward has been exactly what I needed to decompress and I’m finally feeling rested and relaxed. I’m a creative and a builder, so sooner than later I’ll jump back into a high intensity company but I’m grateful for this season of thinking, reading, traveling and being with people I love. After having time to reflect I believe more than ever that the very best outcomes flow from great leadership that combines the head and the heart. I’d be remiss if I didn’t note that in all of this there is also a cautionary tale for anyone who succeeds at something — which is that the higher you climb, the smaller your world becomes. It’s a strange paradox but the richest and most powerful people are also some of the most isolated. I found myself frequently looking at Elon and seeing a person who seemed quite alone because his time and energy was so purely devoted to work, which is not the model of a life I want to live. Money and fame can create psychological prisons which may worsen mental health conditions. We’ve all seen high profile cases of celebrities who end up with some combination of depression, paranoia, delusions of grandeur, mania and/or erratic behavior. Living in an echo chamber is dangerous and being at the top makes a person even more susceptible to being surrounded by yes people when nearly everyone around you is on the payroll and somehow stands to benefit from being in your orbit. Figuring out how to keep “better angels” around in the form of family, friends, and teammates is critical to staying on the rails and enduring intense ups and downs. Everyone needs to hear hard truths sometimes and if you fire all the people who speak up then the reality distortion field may just turn into a vortex. I was drawn to Twitter because I’m obsessed with the problem of loneliness and connection between people. I find it fascinating & troubling that humans are getting lonelier as we simultaneously create a world that’s both safer and wealthier. I don’t believe that trade-off has to exist, which is why I keep returning to that theme in my personal and professional life. I realize this is too long of a tweet but Twitter was a weird and special place on the internet, and I’m grateful to have played a teeny tiny role in its story and evolution. I’m here for whatever comes next — on this app and in new places. Consumer social is very much alive and at a fascinating juncture, so I’ll be watching and participating and sharing hot takes because I don’t want to, and probably can’t, turn that part of me off. Perhaps X becomes a resounding success. Or it fails epically. Either way, I expect it will continue to be a very entertaining ride. 🫡
