So sad. I didn’t know him well but always had very positive interactions with him. I hope he’s found the peace he’s been looking for.

Hoo boy that headline is a doozy.

Your agency is stuck. You’re not sure why. I’m here to help. Read this article and then let’s chat. servicebusinessacademy.substack.com/p/why-your-a...

Been pretty consistent on YT for the last 3 months, and I don't know why, but I'm pretty stoked that some of my content is starting to get thumbs down.

Honestly, F these guys. They all need to be replaced. Dems need to play dirty and force the vote right now. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/07...

Just heard a little girl, maybe 3, say to her dad, “Hey, you. Push me on the swing.” Lol.

What tools are tracking AI Mode mentions? I know they're personalized to people, but there's still something we can learn, no?

Started watching Castle Impossible today, and I am obsessed. I’ve always wanted to renovate a chateau in France.

Am I the only person who finds it unprofessional when someone writes a brand name wrong? It's not "Editor Ninja." It's not "editor ninja." It's DEFINITELY not "Ninja Editor." It's EditorNinja. Details matter.

He’s not wrong

How in the hell did the NBA Finals JUST finish? Didn’t the playoffs start at like the beginning of May?

Honest q - how is this podcast still categorized as “business?” At best it’s a shitty Fox News. @pocketcasts.com I think they need to be removed from the business category.

100 on Saturday, not even going to crest 80 today. I needed to wear a light hoodie on my walk just now (around 10:30am). Totally normal summer for Denver!

This is a must-read from Brian Balfour about platform and distribution shifts. Really makes me think. blog.brianbalfour.com/p/the-next-g...

I’m hoping the peace I felt in Ireland this week stays with me for a while.

Window vs aisle isn’t even a debate. Obviously business class is the answer.

EditorNinja site is down, looks like an error on Kinsta's end. Hoping they resolve it quickly.

It's amazing how when you say you're working a ton, people tell you to slow down. They celebrate when you make less progress. That's not being a friend. That's actually being an enemy. True friends encourage you to do your best work.

Why do computer mouses (mice?) always die at the most inopportune time? Asking for a friend. Hi, I'm the friend.

As of this morning, Deploy Empathy is only 9 (!!) copies away from selling 5,000 copies So I’ve reduced the paperback to $£€ 10. If you’ve wanted to get copies for your team, today is the day! **today only** 🇺🇸 www.amazon.com/Deploy-Empat... 🇬🇧 www.amazon.co.uk/Deploy-Empat...

First morning at home in a long time without the kids around (they stayed at the grandparents' and are there all day today). OMG I've been so productive.

This is why I am so bullish on multi-modal (video, audio, text) content marketing moving forward. (from A16Z's recent article - a16z.com/geo-over-seo/)

This company got bought for $6.5b dollars. This is their website. Shoot for the stars, my friends. www.lovefrom.com

“Social media manager” is a bullshit job that should’ve stopped being a thing 8+ years ago. You cannot convince me otherwise.

Ma’am this is a Wendy’s.

😮‍💨 I wish we spent that much.

Qualified?

Apparently, the Chicago Sun-Times published a piece yesterday that contained a lot of made up books and authors and more. I came across that this morning. Whoops. I coincidentally published an article on How To Edit AI Content just yesterday. Perfect timing: editorninja.com/how-to-edit-...

Trump can't cancel NPR funding. He doesn't have that power. Congress needs to grow a spine.

Congratulations. You've invented a bus. A shit bus. techcrunch.com/2025/05/14/u...

Last July, I was close to breaking my neck in a mountain biking fall in France. That could've left me paralyzed. Fortunately I didn't, but I've been recovering for the last 10 months. Yesterday, I got to lift weights for the first time in almost a year, and in my new home gym. Grateful.

I really hate how Google Ads doesn't have a true exact match anymore. It's all basically phrase match at this point. Frustrating.

Just going to leave this here.

This is a great read about the future of PR and how media outlets influence LLMs. And of course @randfish.bsky.social is quoted. He's been on the leading edge of visibility as a strategy, not just clicks. www.semafor.com/article/05/1...

"Who should I hire next in my agency?" A question I get asked all the time, and one I've asked myself. So I created a new YT video outlining 5 Tips for Who To Hire Next. Have a watch! youtu.be/FntaVXVSHmU

TIL David Ogilvy owned a chateau in France, and his family still owns it today, about 60 years later. Further cementing that I want to be David Ogilvy. www.exquisitehotelconsultants.com/Property/155...

I love this for me.

Some of my best thinking happens right here, on my couch in my office, with my feet up. Not all productivity looks like productivity. Be kind to yourself and know what you need to stay fresh and get the most done.

Side note: I’d totally listen to a podcast narrated by this guy.

TFW you record a 15 minute screen recording with the wrong microphone. SCREAM INTO THE VOID

Am I the only person who has to remember that "upheld" means "confirmed?" I always think it means the opposite. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2025/05/06/f...
