I'm Andrew, anti 'quick fix' copywriter - I write for people who know it's not enough anymore try to freshen up stale copy. Effective messaging needs sustained focus and a distinct 'voice' to break through the noise. To hire me, go to andrewmonro.com, or fire me a DM.

@ichoosemag That is solid advice, but it very much feels like we're the string ensemble on the deck of the Titanic.

Nah. Here til its dying day. I see what everyone sees. What it’s become. But I’ve put too much effort into it to jump ship and also, it’s fascinating to see it change. One of the best editors I ever had said “read a left leaning broadsheet every day and read a right leaning tabloid. And go from there.” Her point was to consume what everyone does then have the brain to evaluate.

At this point, I think reason I'm still on this platform is that @ichoosemag hasn't committed to a different platform (maybe he has though and I've just missed it).

This is the kind of line item that usually wouldn't even make funded startups blink. But it gives me the hives. When you're playing with your own money and for keeps, a lot of tech's "standard practices" come across as grotesquely wasteful and squanderous.

Because I haven't seen @ALL_CAPS post this in a while, it's nearly 2 pm on a Friday. Time to deploy to production so I can feel something in my life.

Selling cybersecurity needs to be less about the tools and systems you offer, and more the associated practices and mindset that make those tools effective. Using a walking stick doesn't mean you have good posture. It just means you're less likely to fall on the floor.

@ichoosemag It's doing its best, it might just need a bit of a cry after the temperature records it set last month.

@SjamieIt If that's the building I think it is, it's a housing cooperative. Big reason it's preserved as it is is because its socially owned, affordable housing, established in an era when the Ontario government cared about such things.

I don't think I ever really walk on Cooper - hadn't noticed this before, but this is a really nice building. We should build more of these.

@Matthew_Fenton I wondered if it was something of privately owned weather sites. Accuweather is the same. Decent app. Abysmal website.

Everybody: just swallow the frog and do that task you've been dreading/putting off forever that's stressing you out and taking up brain space with bad vibes. It'll probably take you less than an hour and then you'll be free and get the rest of your week back. Post results here.

@BiteYourBrum He was/might still be my favourite Tory, purely because he had the courage to tell other Tories they were off their rocker. Self-awareness is a rare trait in politicians.

I stand by what I’ve been saying for months: Andy should’ve fucked off the Tories the minute the HS2 stuff happened. If he’d run as an independent, he’d have won. But he didn’t.
