Commenting on it at all. Now is the time to be extremely clinical with your coms. Your can talk about low funnel ecom type of stuff. Forget about high minded brand stuff. Now is not the time.

I agree with not commenting on it at all. If your brand message is filled with virtue-signaling or you can’t stay on message, then yeah, you’re better off not saying anything. But that doesn’t mean everyone has to turn off their brand messaging…

The test is always: does this conversation need my voice in it? Am I providing help, clarity, or a perspective that adds something? Because if you're figuring out what to say, it means you're interjecting, and you don't need to be there.

Tell your brand to comment with their wallet if they actually give a shit otherwise some guy in the comments section of your next Twitter post will.

Sibling has no self-control. Covid has brought out the worst in him. He constantly stays inside his bedroom, sometimes for days at an end. Works from his bedroom, plays video games in free time, orders food & eats in his bedroom. Is not motivated to do anything or interact with anyone. These tendencies existed before pandemic but has gotten significantly worse during. Any suggestions on how to help him

Had a scratchy throat yesterday that has since gone, low grade fever all day today (99-99.9). Have felt off and spacey today, and had a headache which went away after taking Advil.

Anyone have advice for how to cope until I know exactly what’s going on with me? I feel like this stress isn’t good for my immune system.

Can someone explain how billable hours work?
