Protecting the future starts with nurturing those who will ultimately create it. And yet there’s few standards and limited legislation around the food we feed to the youngest members of our families. @Yumi is going to change that. And I’m so excited to help! #newjob

Nike wrote something about the Boston marathon. Apple has a new CEO. Two things that far from the most important news in the World this week.

This Olivia Dean bop has completely taken over my algo. I (admittedly) had not heard her before a week or two ago—and now she’s everywhere. I’m not on TikTok but have we ever seen something go to the moon so fast? instagram.com/reel/DRLu1iAEV…

. @vancleefarpels could drop a slightly updated (maybe extended length and short version of the Alhambra) this week and do over $100mm in impulse buys drafting off #Dodger fever. However Luxury brands often lack the agility and/or the brazen self-confidence to swing for it.

Business-y folks-- What's the best credit card to have for business purposes (small business). @Delta @AmericanExpress Gold Card (we fly Delta A LOT) or @Chase Sapphire Reserve?? I feel like @michaelmiraflor has a strong pov. Any advice anyone here?

Really need a @RoyelOtis cover of this.

There's a lot of takes on why this is a flop, but this is also a great showcase in why @Apple's now heavily produced Keynotes are their norm. I miss the magic of the live moments, but when you are introducing tech that people aren't quite yet sold on, you ought to be perfect.

I’d love to be in the room at @YouTube where they are discussing the platform updates to host @jimmykimmel & @StephenAtHome. The bidding war for these guys across the streaming platforms is going to be pretty wild.

I'm not sure anyone sees these posts (b/c I don't post political hot takes or hate speech?).... But if you're a parent, builder, or trying to get more out of life, my buddy @dens is a rad dad, amazing builder, and niche hobby collector worth reading: tinyurl.com/yr3r5f5n

I really miss the days of sitting in a large conference room with @rje7 and our @Nike Digital Sport team watching our latest experience designs on the #AppleEvent stage, and then live tweeting all of the new updates and joining convo w/fellow nerds like @mgsiegler @dtrinh @rsg

Anyone want this? $100 gift card for @Barrys online store. Best .gif wins. Bonus points if you make a $10 donation to a non-profit like @STOKEDorg.

Brand standards and guidelines are more important than ever in the era of Ai creative and vibe-based marketing. This is just embarrassing for @DICKS, even though it’s right there in their name.

While @onepeloton shuts down retail doors, I think they could do well opening stores/experiences in key airports. Take a 15min /30 minute class on a bike or tread for $15 would be the best long layover experience. Would probably drive a lot of new apparel sales at the same time.

Waiting for Tsunami evacuation warning for the next 90 minutes was not on my bingo card for 2025.

It's the time of the Summer when my #iphone (15 Pro) doesn't hold charge, shuts off randomly when fully charged, and now won't go above 1% battery...just in time for a keynote in a few weeks.
