Remember when Elon Musk posted a poll asking if he should step down as Twitter CEO, and users decisively voted yes, and nothing happened?

In case you need to hear this, it's totally possible to have a thriving freelance career without: • Starting a newsletter • Creating a course • Growing your social media following • Building a team Want to do those? Great. But they aren't prerequisites for success. 👍🏻

😔May their memory be a blessing & may their loved ones have justice 😔 The politically motivate murder of a journalist in NV is a blaring warning that not only press freedom, but *every* freedom, is in danger of annihilation. Tragic and preventable. pressfreedomtracker.us/all-i…

More people need to be talking about Jackson, Mississippi. The city ran out of bottled water to give residents yesterday. It’s the largest city in Mississippi. It’s 80% Black. Their water system is failing because of years of neglect. This is environmental racism.
