I’m so sick of having to wake up and hear what the Orange Narcissist has to say about everything. This is why he loves international conflict it’s an the ultimate attention flex
Seeing two people who's opinions I really rate talk past each other on LinkedIn is sad. Like seeing mum and dad fight over passing the ketchup. Some (all) debates are better had down the pub
Did you see all those hilarious photo stills of him looking serious on the weekend news while saying 'British planes were in the air' followed by 'we're not actually joining in this'. The man is the ultimate fence-sitter. Do. Or do not.
No it’s because I blocked him. Did him a favour really
He has form for this kind of thing. I politely engaged with him last time he went off on one and he then DMd me to ask if he could do some freelance for BDB! Haha. Keep those bridges burning eh
He’s still going on. Never blocked someone on LinkedIn before might be time
Careful, the fun police are at large on LinkedIn & they’re coming for your half-baked opinions on their chosen Profession. The silly sausages

The Coachrses. Gentrification in progress
You must have been there! Yes he said the effectiveness era is over and now it’s the era of advocommunity (something like that but I’d stopped listening by that point)
They eat brand love for breakfast
Sounds like half the marketing thought leaders on LinkedIn.
Heard one of them say “being effective is no longer enough’ last week.
every time I hear it I think of the Chris Rock bit "I take care of my kids'
Ticket inspector just came up to a family on this train. 'How old are the kids?'. 'erm... 2 and 4'.
oldest kid: 'no I'm not, I'm 5....' Damn 😆. Been there before

Say no more, you had me at Wire
Sam Fender’s Empty Spaces. Gawd. Recommend, just not a commuter train on wet dark January night 😭
the cognitive dissonance to deride your party's time in power & immigration record when you were *checks notes* home secretary is quite something.
all the idiots in one place now. whatever is left of the Tories much more palatable as a result
5 years later, we look him up and he's Global Head of Strategy for a Big Network. Talent played the tiniest role in that pathway imaginable...
@scm.bsky.social and I worked used to with a media planner for whom every single brief was answered with the same platform "communicate the USP to the target audience at the right time'. I'm not even subbing the words 'USP', 'audience' or 'time', it was verbatim the same 10 words over and over
She’s hit on some half decent themes recently. Maybe Reform will force the tories to tack back towards the centre ground to differentiate
Urgh. Gone down with the man flu. Being terribly brave about it of course
With lines like this left hanging around in applications, what is the point of asking people anything
'If you want, next we can tighten any of these depending on whether you want to sound more strategist or more culture head, but honestly this already fits what BDB are actually looking for'
I thought I’d seen all the ‘strategist read a book’ slides but caught a new one this week.
Atomic Habits.
Jesus, Mary, Joseph and the wee donkey
I hear his book and podcast are both very popular with people who don’t work in a serious business
It's not a grassroots working class movement.
"Wherever we looked for prominent flaggers and leaders of this movement, we found people smugglers and sex doll salesmen, people with dubious criminal pasts and people willing to put in a good word for Adolf Hitler."
