I forgot about Bluesky. 🦋

Who is heading to SXSW?
Making some big announcements next week!

I can’t sleep. I keep reading. I keep thinking about the Super Bowl.

But really, I keep thinking about Kendrick Lamar.

I wrote some thoughts about it here: thebolt.medium.com/the-revoluti...

Pretty sure Depeche Mode and Johnny Cash would both hate being part of that organization's commercial.

The Seal commercial is a perfect example of Just Because You Can Doesn't Mean You Should

Agree. Way to ruin Jesus, Johnny Cash, and Depeche Mode all at once
and spend over $7M just for the privilege of making us all watch. 🤮

Walton Goggin’s Goggle Glasses getting a boost with a GoDaddy commercial was a nice surprise! I mean, who doesn’t love Walton Goggins? Go Goggins!! 🤩

This is the first time a Pulitzer Prize winner has headlined the Super Bowl halftime show.

The Snoop Dog/Tom Brady ad may be the worst 30 seconds of TV ever produced

DunKings 2: Super Bowl Commercial ft. Ben & Casey Affleck, Jeremy Strong, Bill Belichick, & Druski YouTube video by Dunkin'

Ben Affleck’s Dunkin commercial (with Jeremy Strong in method mode) mentions Matt Damon, and Damon’s Stella commercial (with David Beckham) mentions Affleck. A bromance that transcends coffee & donuts and beer apparently. youtu.be/W5VzQ8OV3X0?...

Harrison FORD doing a Jeep commercial was a special kind of genius. The overall creative and script was just ok (a little too “kumbaya” given how wild things are in the USA right now), but the talent choice alone was excellent!

I was thinking the same thing!!! After Eugene’s eyebrows, to then have flying mustaches was a little hairy (literally). 🥸

Man, being the second flying facial hair commercial of the Super Bowl must be so
embarrassing…

Kendrick Lamar trolled Drake with a lawsuit joke before his Super Bowl Not Like Us performance “You know they love to sue.”

And his epic continued trolling… chef’s kiss: ftw.usatoday.com/2025/02/kend...

Mic drop. Wow. 😮

ChatGPT | The Intelligence Age YouTube video by OpenAI

The AI Wars are ON: #GoogleGemini was relatable (speaking with AI for career advice) and the #ChatGPT spot was artful and intriguing - celebrating ingenuity and human creativity. 👏 Both avoided relying on Gen AI!

Ok, Rocket Mortgage, I liked that one. Growing up on a farm in Southwestern Pennsylvania, “Country Roads” always has a special place in my heart. ❤️ #superbowlcommercials #superbowl

“We’re Here” Big Game Spot I Instacart YouTube video by Instacart

So far, the only Super Bowl commercial I’ve enjoyed so far was Instacart (and that’s 90% based on my affinity for dachshunds). A close second to the aliens and Doritos.👽 Way too much CGI and AI generated graphics this year. What say you? youtu.be/nVUPazjaHl8?... #superbowlcommercials #SuperBowl

I shared some thoughts on evolving with tech and the music industry in my 2013 TEDx Talk over on LinkedIn. Overall, it holds up linkedin.com/posts/jenbsullivan_frictionology-jennifer-sullivan-at-tedxchapmanu-activity-7294084621808336896-K7sJ

Me too! When I was in Seoul one of our team members cued this up for karaoke and we literally had a mosh pit of like 5 people screaming to it. It was the night I’ve had in a long time!

Our power went out this week for a couple hours during a welcome rain in LA, and I found myself in a dark theatre crying happy tears watching A Complete Unknown. If you have the chance to see it in the theatre, GO. Even just to listen to Dylan’s words for a couple hours. 😍#acompleteunknown #movies

It changed me. I was an REM/Depeche Mode/The Cure kid…and then there was this. Music that makes you FEEL everything everywhere all at once. It is rare.

Afternoon meeting after the rain. A perfect day! 🌴

Pace yourself. Then, at times, overdo it. Then rewind and do it again in slow motion. Just as shocking your biological systems gives the best results for physical health, creative work and social interaction need to be shaken up as well to keep your spirit vibrant and alive. - III

I love this little duck lamp. It is ridiculous and unassuming, yet I look at it daily and smile.
Good product design isn’t just about utility - it’s about how something makes you feel. The world need joy. Give them something to smile about.

I've decided that “bless your heart” is my response to ignorant internet trolls who can't be reasoned with. Are you with me? #blessyourheart #kindness #sarcasm #bowie
