Also, let’s not pretend there aren’t millions of Americans who have been mumbling Eddie Vedder lyrics for decades with absolutely no clue what he’s saying.
You gotta chill, mami and papi.
Just let it happen.
Re: Bad Bunny’s show at the #SuperBowl, I grew up in Chile listening to music in English. Loved it. Sang it loudly. Understood exactly 0 words.
Somehow, I survived and look at me now. I’m bilingual.
For those who say “this is not what I voted for”… what did you actually vote for?
So… is Rage Against The Machine closing the Super Bowl?
PSA: Last call to take the turkey out of the freezer.
Tomorrow it will be too late.
This has been me the whole week. WTF is going on?
Vamos todavía! ✊🏼
When the town hall is half way through and you suddenly realize the slide deck is not the final final final version…
When you’re a social media manager and your clients get caught red-handed…

Pro tip for #CommsJobs interviews: Ask where the comms team sits within the company.
Is it under Corporate Affairs, HR, or somewhere else? It shows you're thinking strategically and helps you understand how integrated and supported the role will be.
Next interview, make this your first question.
Did DOGE approve having 17 people and an intruder into a chat room making decisions?
Doesn’t sound very efficient to me.
They keep claiming they’re carrying out the will of the American people, but that’s just not true.
We don’t want any of this shit.
- An average football team has 23 coaches. 23!
- Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, Josh Hamm, and Bradley Cooper scream representation. (?)
- Bud Light moved from supporting Dylan Mulvaney to being the soul of white men cul-de-sac parties. Get your shit together.
- Some commercials are just plain immoral. I get freedom of speech, and I get that money buys you a platform, but ads like Kanye’s Yeezy stunt and Musk’s weird USAID hit pieces are straight-up fucked up.
- It gets under my skin that the game is called football, but they barely use their feet.
Snarky thoughts about #superbowlLIX (a thread):
- I don’t understand how Americans crown the Super Bowl winner as “World Champion” when really no other country plays the game.
Elon University needs an urgent rebrand. 🤦🏻♂️
Today someone asked me if I’m using Ozempic.
I guess that’s a good thing?
