Explaining to my kid that St*phen M!ller’s Vanity Fair portrait was not the best of the bunch — “his isn’t so bad” — and was designed to make him look like Goebbels was not on my 2025 bingo card.

This is why art is important.

Congratulations!!! I’m so happy for you! ❤️🎉

Have you tried to get a 10-year-old to pack for a two week trip or would you prefer to get a root canal because I can tell you where I’m landing.

I don’t think either of us qualify so I think we’re in the clear. 😂

Lol

Paaarrrrtttttyyyyy

God I hope it’s the rapture tomorrow. That would solve so many problems.

🤣

Shoutout to meetings so stressful your Oura ring thinks you’re exercising. 😂

I wish I loved anything as much as some of y’all love Diet Coke.

Emily and co-worker being ridiculous as a bunny and alien in a video call.

I run a very serious company.

Every time I see a video of a panda I just think, You’re not even trying to survive.

Awww thank you so much. I think it’s the best talk I ever gave, honestly.

I had such a blast working with the @microsoftlearn.bsky.social team!

Yes! It’s a delight.

OH: “Darling, you’re at a Renaissance Fair. It’s… all nerds.” 😂

Me: “I have a story.”

My daughter, sarcastically: “Bless us with your stories.”

Me: 😑

A food item came out slightly off of what my daughter wanted.

Me: “Maybe you’ll discover you love it.”

*tries it*

Her: “I did not discover that….Not at all.”

Two of my favorite humans being brilliant in one retweet.

Re-upping this again because it's properly on point.

LPT: If you would like to lose weight, start a business and then you will just not have time to eat.

Freeman & Forrest is a year old! It's been a wild, incredible journey and we've learned so much.

I'm remembering an executive we pitched early on who called us a "small business for shitty little companies."

Anyway, we've paid technical content creators $1.7M. I'm proud of that. fnf.dev/one-year

“I get marshmallows. I’ve had a hard day.”

I’m far from perfect. I’m learning every day.

But I swear 80% of this is hiring talented humans and then getting out of the way.

I’m not charmed by “perfect” resumes. I believe people with rockier paths have more grit. They’re capable of figuring it out, no matter what “it” is.

And I love it when people say “we” but can identify how they individually contributed to a larger mission. That matters.

I love finding people who have historically been overlooked or under appreciated. People who continue to strive despite not getting the credit they deserve are intrinsically motivated.

They’re gonna work hard no matter what.

If I’ve seen you transition careers or take time away or juggle a bunch of things at once, I know you know how to pivot.

Adapting to change is always hard. I believe people who have experienced big changes in their lives adapt faster to changes at work.

I have somehow assembled one of the best teams I could possibly have.

A couple things I’ve found work:

I hire kind, low-ego humans. These are people who can learn, accept feedback, admit mistakes, and grow as a team.

I strongly favor weird backgrounds.

Funniest quote of the day:

“Courts operate in two areas: law and equity. Equity is vibes.”

It’s been a weird morning.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
