  • From afar it’s easy to find the US’s gun obsession kind of bizarre & definitely foreign… until I remember my nieces are doing active shooter drills while their representatives effectively fine Delta for discontinuing their NRA discount. #MarchForOurLives

  • I’ve been thinking a lot about Found/Tonight and how perfect The Story of Tonight and You Will Be Found are for @AMarch4OurLives. My US friends and the students leading it should be proud of their influence. I wish they didn’t need to be.

  • This month’s Hamildrop is also a Hansendrop and how am I meant to sleep now?! (Europe & America, just you wait) https://youtu.be/4s9Td2ZAyT8

  • Right, Joe, I’ve always been right.

  • @AirbnbHelp asks: after finding out bedroom blinds are not required & neither is listing their presence or absence, would I recommend their service?

    Honestly, I’d have to say I’d recommend against it.

  • Turns out my irrational fear I’d get used to hotel swipe cards and lock myself out within hours of getting home was rational after all. Genius.

  • There’s a lot of discussion about politics in conference talks following this post. The Stonewall Inn photo in my latest slide deck wasn’t an accident, it was a reaction to Australia’s hateful same-sex marriage survey.

  • OH: he was here yesterday (true story), he’s an excellent table.

    See, I told you I’m a fucking delight.

  • Looking forward to this one, it’s not often you get to see Uma Thurman in her broadway debut.

  • Buffer’s state of remote work. https://open.buffer.com/state-remote-work-2018/
