2. The Rise Of Negative Media Since 2010, the media massively increased headlines that use fear, anger, disgust, and sadness. It has also decreased articles of neutrality and joy. It's no surprise that few media outlets are covering this meta point.

I’m very surprised to hear that things aren’t going well between the team that normalized poop emojis in the workplace and the team that normalized spending $500k on consultants to make their software work.

Data-driven deep stuff. One of the best parts of Twitter
Replying to @SahilBloom
In summary: (1) Family time is limited—cherish it. (2) Friend time is limited—prioritize real ones. (3) Partner time is significant—never settle. (4) Children time is precious—be present. (5) Coworker time is significant—find energy. (6) Alone time is highest—love yourself.
Update: The Twitter wildfire is at 44 billion acres and 0% contained.
