1/2. The brutal truth about advertising is that tech companies cannot realistically claim to have a monopoly on creative ideas. So they grotesquely overstate the importance of those areas of advertising where they do have monopoly power, and everyone fucking believes them. – at England, United Kingdom

If there was any justice in the world, Peru would start every football match with a 3-0 head start because of how 🔥 🔥 🔥their kit is.

An idea is always the answer. Not: an ad channel technique story format audience platform director social digital design customer journey endline experience purpose film celeb tone algorithm photographer 60s 3s or budget. (Some of which are sometimes part of the answer).

“She’s got legs, she knows how to use them” was all about walking a certain way to be seen, as a tool of attraction, when I was growing up. Needless to say I see them as much more than that now. oiselle.com/blog/lauren-fles…

Man... 😞 Such a talent. Being (nominally) a writer myself, it makes me bleak that there will be no more @owljohn lyrics. If you don't know anything about them, spend a bit of time falling down a @FRabbits hole...ow.ly/jbez30jXaP6

Even if you don't work in advertising this is worth a watch. I continue to take 'advice for my daughters' notes from @FleshmanFlyer ow.ly/Rp6C30jFpmp

Can't help but feel @stevesmith49, while absolutely being guilty of weak leadership in not saying 'we're not doing that', has to a certain degree taken a bullet for @davidwarner31 's rank stupidity. You'd need a cold, cold heart to not feel for Smith at that news conference.

Really interesting read. Particularly as Mr Bannon pops up. Seems like he found his weapon to break society.... ow.ly/GOm330j4TdA

The Democrats are pushing for Universal HealthCare while thousands of people are marching in the UK because their U system is going broke and not working. Dems want to greatly raise taxes for really bad and non-personal medical care. No thanks!
The irony of sharing this on social media does not escape me. ow.ly/7jG630hFhIs

Hey @GinoBona, did you enjoy the ‘Trump and Bannon sitting in a tree, KayEyeEssEssEyeEnGee’ era?
