That’s my point exactly. Most large deal quotes also include usage rights (to give the brand the right boost the post) because A-tier brands would rarely leave it to the algorithm alone.
That’s how the platforms make their real money, ads. And that’s how brands guarantee their creators work gets seen. Influencers charge higher to give brands the right to do this with their videos.

@Legendaley @DevinNash Wouldn't that just mean she'd be expecting to get even less views than average on the sponsorship post your paying for? Why would that help her case? Currently she's averaging 1.4k views with a 0.1% engagement rate on TikTok you're just paying for the paid ADs at that stage.
English
Influencer offered $4,000 for the post ($281 CPM) and Phoebe counters $400 ($28.17 CPM) Then puts Phoebe on blast for not having enough money. I've done millions in creator advertising spends and $281 CPM is up there with the most ridiculous offers I've ever seen.
Even still Phoebe countered with a rate that was well above what the influencer's views and engagement deserve. For context a Tiktok post will usually go for $4-$10 CPM. Phoebe's counter was more than reasonable and she was very polite about it.
For a healthy ecosystem both creators AND advertisers need the deal to make sense on both ends. You'll always have a wide range of deal values and subjective considerations (engagement %, audience trust, etc) but neither side should try to extort the other. In this case the influencer was way beyond the pale.
All kinds of better things to do with $4,000. Literally impossible to get a return on advertising spend for that on 14,200 views average. I could hire ten people with signs for a week to walk around a downtown city and get a better ROAS than that.
The real mystery is why Phoebe was even doing her own influencer activations. Respect for standing on your own two feet and hustling but you get an agency to avoid exactly this. @PhoebeAdellle - I probably would open one more spot to AOR for Phia. Just saying.

As a creator who understands just about everything involved in the behind-the-scenes for making video's, I can no longer take talking head educators seriously when I can sense through their eyes that they are just reading through a teleprompter.
Seeing through the illusion that they are speaking naturally through their own experience and wisdom just ruins it for me I guess.

In the same way our generation’s high achievers watched their parents destroy their health with alcohol and smoking, the next generation’s high achievers will stand out by avoiding their screens.

@JadenCoyer Amazing video. The sound design must've taken a lot of time.

Recently, I had the opportunity to work with Anthropic showcasing how Claude fits into my content workflow — helping me stay organized, structure my ideas faster, and increase quality of output.

To my core, I understand this deeply. The biggest challenge of my next era of content is figuring out how I can convince my audience to deepen the relationship between themselves and the peers that really matter in their lives
Parents, siblings, wives/husbands, boyfriends/girlfriends, children, extended family, and your real IRL social circles.

@termsheetinator It's funny because I also held the paradigm how financially disadvantageous being a Canadian felt, until I started learning and taking advantage of just half of these.
Glad I'm on the other side. Sadly I don't think everyone else will take time to learn how the system works.
English
you’re Canadian and poor because you don’t take advantage of:
- TFSA investing
- RRSP tax deferral
- FHSA
- The Smith Manoeuvre
- Tax-loss harvesting
- The Canadian Dividend Tax Credit
- Spousal RRSPs
- Pension income splitting
- Employer RRSP matching
- Re-advanceable mortgage (HELOC investing)
they don't teach you this in school, you have to teach yourself.

I don’t understand. This stuff is real, it exists, you can actually buy it, and yet the VR market is almost dead. What happened to the kids in the 90s who dreamed about this possibility? Why do modern kids now go crazy for games where you don’t really do anything, where at most you just swipe up and down, or spend their time screaming in stupid games that require no concentration, like amoebas with no curiosity? This stuff finally f***ing exists, and yet the videogame market pretends it’s invisible. F***! F***! F***! In 1998, when we were 13 playing Resident Evil 2 on the PlayStation with my friends, we would have killed to be able to play something like this.

At 28, I refused to think about what life looked like beyond 30. Felt old then.
At 29, finally started planning life beyond my 30s, maybe even a hint of my 40s. That life plan is currently under way.
Turning 30 now, I don't feel a difference. In fact, I feel like a baby again.

@n0tandreaaa Happy birthday Andrea; also just turned 30 a week ago 🙂

Neither of these men are married or have kids.
Both are simply obsessed with their own personal perfection and optimization.
There is nothing impressive about a single man with no kids sleeping well and being fit.
Show me a man with young children, a full time job, disrupted sleep, who works out regularly, eats healthy, trains Jui Jitsu, with a muscular body…
THIS is impressive. THIS requires extreme discipline.

Chris Williamson just shared his "nuclear" sleep stack that's quietly changing his life—and Andrew Huberman breaks down exactly why it works: If you're lying in bed at 2 a.m. scrolling or staring at the ceiling, this 4-minute protocol combo might be the fastest way to shut your brain off without pills. The two killer techniques Williamson swears by: 1. The Mind Walk (visualization on steroids) - Imagine walking a route you know perfectly (your house → front door → street) - Do it with insane detail: feel the shoehorn, hear the key turn, feel the door handle, pressure of the pavement - It's like reading fiction for your nervous system—engages the brain just enough to stop problem-solving loops, but not enough to keep you awake 2. Resonance breathing with the Ohm stone lamp - Bedside lamp with induction-charging stone that has a built-in FDA-cleared HRV sensor - Hold the stone → 3/6/9/12-minute guided sessions with silent tactile vibration (no sound, no light, partner-safe) - Guides you into true resonance frequency (max vagal tone) → the stone knows when you hit it - Williamson calls it “the sickest” sleep tool he’s ever used—currently in stealth (ohmhealth, not widely available yet) Huberman adds the neuroscience: Looking down + eyelids lowering activates parasympathetic circuits and deactivates wakefulness-promoting brainstem nuclei. It’s literally pedaling the sleep pedal while shutting off the alertness arm. Williamson: “Some days you need the adventure story (mind walk), some days you need the physiological hammer (resonance breathing). Stack them and I’m cross-eyed into sleep.” Already trying one of these? Or is your nighttime routine still a war zone?

Becoming a husband is so liberating. Focus narrows in such a way so inconceivable that I look back with such absurdity as to how I was using my time and energy.

Hyperscape Revival.
Game feels exactly as I left it (perfect).
Singleplayer works for now, will be awhile before anything multiplayer works (could be months or even years). Early alpha/private for now.
Reach out to me if you have reverse engineering experience and want to help.

I'm in shock. I don't even know what to say.
The fact that I am genuinely curious to see more is already enough proof for me to know that this will completely shift the film industry.

Had the luxury of experiencing the decline of FragPunk, Spellbreak, Rogue Company, and especially HyperScape.
All great games; ones that I genuinely would’ve kept playing if player bases never dropped.
Only pattern I can identify with all of said games was that people just didn’t know they existed (at the time) AND those that did didn’t have enough peers already playing to make them want to start/keep playing.

10 out of the 12 successful games had big established studios behind them. And only 5 of 19 of the failed ones had big studios behind them.
Having a winning game for a smaller studio is clearly INCREDIBLY hard historically.
*Credit to Embark for creating something fresh with The Finals and locking in a strong core audience.
But I am curious, is the next big comp fps game going to actually break the mold or will it be more of the same?
