Good. Sophia Rosing is a dark example of an entitled child and more disturbingly, unchecked racism that continues to bubble up around our country. Appalling.

@sweatystartup Respectfully, I’ve never worked a 9-5 where I wasn’t worried after hours, gave up vacation time or worked weekends to hit project deadlines. Was I was underpaid, or I was treating my job like I owned it?

Bezos donates $100M to charity the same week Amazon lays off 10,000 workers. I’m sure that’s a total coincidence—not a calculated PR stunt to detract from worker exploitation the week before Thanksgiving while reporting a 14.7% increase in 2022 Q3 revenue of $127B.

Squashing the daddy daughter date/prom idea. It’s grossly inappropriate. That’s it. There’s nothing you can tell me that makes it appropriate to take your child on what you consider an appropriate “date” and think any outcome (idealized good or bad) is okay. I can’t describe how
