Katy Perry just did a “women empowerment” song with publicly know abuser Dr Luke and Kesha just did a TED talk about how music helped her through Dr Luke’s abuse
ok this tweet made the boomer millennials *really* mad but I got a lot of gen-z replies saying it’s not gifs themselves that are cringe but that most are overused and the ones with text (or from The Office and Schitt’s Creek) need to be retired
well you have to search the right gifs tbh the usage of gifs isn’t necessarily cringe we all use them nobody cares- 😭 but when you use any of these it’s gonna probably show your age and be cringe 🚬

I started going to a local bar that does a lot of events with local DJs/musicians and I realized this too! And if they are local artists their friends will often be there so you start meeting friend circles really fast.
Big Tech Alert was on the scoop first, but it’s been 2 months since I joined the creative team at
@perplexity_ai
. The design team is so freaking talented and collaborative and it’s been refreshing to have so much creative ownership on the media I produce and direct 🥹
getting laid off earlier this year was devastating but it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened cuz I was able to actually chill/get over burnout before getting my new job and now I’m working on creative projects that are much bigger and have a lot more impact 🥹
@cignewtons_
@Minsmoons
I also like going to local venues that have music/dancing cuz if you’re good at throwing ass on the dance floor people will gravitate to you *really* fast 😌

I got fuckin reamed a few weeks ago re: a tweet about Gen z trends and it made me realize that a lot of people aren’t aware that Gen z is pushing 27
There are a lot of millennials replying to my main tweet who think that gen z are teenagers who ate tide pods. The oldest of gen z are almost 30 (I’m closer to them in age than the oldest millennials) and I have gen z peers/co-workers. Also the tide pod fiasco was 12 years ago 🙄
lotsa liberals don’t realize that California leans *extremely* conservative outside of SF, LA, and Long Beach. People have told me they experienced a *lot* more racism in OC than in Texas

In the last month I’ve started going to the shows of local DJs/artists at bars and venues near my house and I have *really* quickly started meeting people in my city. A lot of the DJs get their friends to come out and I’ve started connecting with whole friend groups.
People don’t wanna tell you this but I made most of my connections by going out 5 times a week for a year straight when I first moved to nyc. Those connections I made at the club are the reason why I have a career, salary, benefits, financial security all of that.

If you’re in SF for

seeing Palestin*ans having to crowdfund on gofundme so they can afford to flee to another country so they don’t d*e from a gen*cide that my tax dollars are paying for is one of the bleakest things I’ve ever witnessed in my entire fucking life

There isn’t a single non-Chinese drone company that comes anywhere close to the quality and capabilities of DJI at their price point. This ban would cause US media, agricultural, mapping & more industries to fall back about 4-5 years 😐
A U.S. bill targeting DJI drones threatens access for all U.S. operators. Revoking FCC authorizations could potentially ground existing fleets. To learn more, click on the links below.

last year I got the idea of doing a group art show with friends but wasn’t able to pull it off with work being so slow. getting invited to be a part of this group show that some friends were also a part of felt like a manifestation of that dream from a year ago 🥰

I grew up in evangelical circles and never met anyone who had this level of extreme view re: not having kids. A lot of families I knew adopted because they couldn’t have children. Vance thinks this rhetoric will make them like him but he’s flown too close to the sun with this.
