Head of Marketing at Spruce - building the tech stack for decentralized identity 🌲
a general poll:
do you accept linkedin connection requests from people you don’t know?
baby reindeer show on netflix is occupying all my mental real estate
have you every noticed how americans only refer to our country as “the US” but everyone else says “America”
“I’m headed back to the US next week”
vs
“I’m traveling to America next week”
so deep in the flow state tippy-tappy-typing away that i just realized i listened to one song 20x without realizing
happy friday
everything in vegas is a human psychology experiment where every interaction is designed to get you to spend $$$ gambling
no windows in casino (remove sense of time to promote gambling all day/night)
free/cheap drinks on casino floor (alcohol lowers inhibitions, more likely to spend more $$ gambling)
gym only open 6am-6pm (exercise after 6pm means you’re not gambling)
4 nights at 5-star hotel costs only $ 200 (subsidize gambling)
no coffee maker or kettle in hotel room (must leave room & walk past slot machines to one of the onsite starbucks)
unforeseen (yet obvious) side effects of working remotely:
i used to never get sick but my immune system is now trash - i get at least a smol cold after every business trip
i need to make a conscious effort to exercise / get out of the house each day
the joy of home after work travel w/ long days&flights and poor hotel sleep 🧘🏼♀️
