Haven't been on Twits in a while as it was clearly a net negative for my wellbeing (despite the occasional good interactions I had). Anyway, here's a rap remix I made of Joy Orbison's "flight fm". Hope you enjoy. @bennycarts/video/7423738802927111457?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">tiktok.com/@bennycarts/vi… #hiphop #rap #remix

Looking to buy a pc monitor for under 500 dollars that's not total crap. More for work/ music production than gaming. Any recommendations?

@CoinbaseSupport @coinbase @CoinbaseExch My account has been locked which means I can't log in to speak on live chat. I was on hold for three hours before the call went dead. How can I contact you to get this resolved?

@buddygott This gives me a very "throw the radio in when White Rabbit peaks" vibe.

Dear freelancer, You can make good money on your writing alone. But it’s a lot easier when you add strategy and project management to the mix. Get to the point where your clients can’t imagine replacing you.

I wrote an essay about why men worship assholes, and LinkedIn called it "hateful speech" and took it down This has never happened to me before I am now a heterodox thinker, a member of the intellectual dark web ama

john sez: you don't have to say anything about anything on social media, especially charged, complex political issues these platforms are fear-amplifiers designed to send dopamine surges directly into the brains of self-righteous partisan berserkers

@JohnDeVore Beginning? That's hardly likely given your perspicacity. Let's presume I'm one of the good ones. Then, extrapolate this to the seething throng of neurosis that is humanity. "Double-edged" is an inadequate term for a tool of such power. The darker edge will always be sharper.

@JohnDeVore Interestingly, he was quoted as saying "When I die, as far as my so-called accomplishments go, it would be nice if Friends were listed far behind the things I did to try to help other people. I know it won't happen, but it would be nice." Such is fame.

@realBrookNash I no longer know what that really means, which, incidentally, has nothing to do with my workload. I have deadlines. I try my best to meet them. I eat when I'm hungry. If I'm getting paid a day rate rather than a per-project rate, I don't include my breaks.

Folks who work from home: do you take a full lunch break every day? Be honest.

@realBrookNash I feel like delivering late is a luxury afforded more to agencies than freelancers. "Our devs in India are currently having a Religious festival," was one example I remember. Makes sense given all the moving parts. Little excuse for solo grunts like me.

@AndrewWriteCopy Also, procure video testimonials if you can - incredibly powerful these days. Unfortunately, marketing data shows the amount of ideal copy is getting smaller by the year. Makes sense given the speed at which we're blindly rattling toward the singularity.

Quick Copywriting Tip Don't use the word “testimonials” in your copy. Your prospects know it's marketing lingo and it breaks the flow of the copy. Instead write something like: • Don’t take my word for it Or anything else that smoothly segues into your testimonials.

@realBrookNash Putting a page of classic literature into Grammarly is good for a laugh. Modernism might actually break it.

@vividvoid But of course, such a redutive Q & A is a more human than a cosmic way of looking at it. "THE meaning of life." Just words, after all, and we know how treacherous the useful bastards are.

@vividvoid I agree, though I also believe the seamless embodiment of unconditional love may be the zenith of everyone's journey. In that sense, beneath preferences, tastes, and stories the meaning of life really is love, I think.

Asking "what is the meaning of life?" is like asking "what is the favorite song?"
