The actual ingredients aren't that scary. Though they did throw in Angelica, poor girl. P.S. Despite its Chinese branding elements, it's made in the US by a veteran-owned business in Clearwater, Florida.

My wife's acupuncturist recommended this to her. I'm not sure whether it needs to be combined with eye of newt and wing of bat. (Note: not an endorsement, paid or unpaid.)

Good critical overview of the regulations — and lack of enforcement — in #influencermarketing. "The Creator Economy Is Above the Law: How iinfluencers get away with anything" by Dan Chiolan writing for @profgalloway.com Media www.profgmedia.com/p/the-creato...

Hmmm, I seem to be surrounded by giant avocado people, and I forgot to bring toast… These extraordinary works of #art by Carmen Argote are actually painted by hand using avocado paste on canvas, with the intent that they will decay by the end of the exhibition. Location: Hammer Museum, Los Angeles.

Damn Americans. Always trying to take down governments.

I was interviewed by Jocelyn Wang, a USC Annenberg alumna, fashion editor, and creative planner, for her podcast. The topic: the value of #education and study abroad. The platform is Chinese, but the podcast is in English. (Post originally from Xiaohongshu.) #China #Chinese

Just some aerial shots over America from my recent trip... #photography #travel

The view from just outside Ultramar, the upscale seafood restaurant with the comic book name, in Kennebunkport, Maine. #travel #Maine

Found these gulls in a gift shop in Kennebunkport, Maine. If I lived there, I might have purchased the entire flock. #birds #art

Tom "Marketoonist" Fishburne strikes again! As I tell my students, always question the motivation of your sources. Full article here: marketoonist.com/2026/06/new-... #marketing #business #research

This company tried to recruit me to teach "Authentic Self-Improvement!" They obviously don't know me that well. I prefer schools of "Contrived Self-Improvement!" #teaching

"Let's Find Your Rich"??? Sorry, if you write like an inebriated spider monkey, I'm not trusting you with my money. #writing #copywriting #advertising

One perk of Apple music: Being able to find and download the exact live performance of Aerosmith's "Dream On" I listened to in high school. (Yes, it matters.) #music

My letter tray for Crossplay (the NY Times version of Scrabble) appeared randomly like this — I did not arrange them. I'm obviously getting tips from our furry overlords. cc @haggistamer.bsky.social

Have you seen natural gas prices lately? Crazy! I mean, how am I expected to pay this? P.S. My wife (the smart one in the family) suggests that we just pay $5 and have them credit our future bill.

Hey, kids, let's play "which one of these is not like the others?" Here are 3 special offers for American Express card users. They are so similar, but can you guess one which is just a bit off target? #marketing #business

Overdue Book Review: “All Systems Red: The Murderbot Diaries” is much better than the TV series, which played like a semi-comedic Saturday morning kids show. Some of the book's prose gets convoluted, but otherwise it’s suspenseful + entertaining. #books #BookSky bookshop.org/a/115667/978...

Took my first ghost-mobile ride in a Waymo. Amazing! It drove better than most humans, even navigating out of a tricky situation when a truck blocked a narrow road. I would take one again. And, no, I don't give a @$%$! about the "ride-sharing" VC-enabled black market gypsy cab drivers.

Not sure why anyone would need a carbon-fiber espresso machine, other than the fact that it looks damn cool. #design

Just voted in the California Primaries, Los Angeles edition. For info on the props & candidates (all those judges!), I shared some relatively moderate sources in the comments. (If you're an extremist, keep scrolling, nothing to see here.) #elections #LosAngeles #California

Dr. Misha Kouzeh, one of my colleagues at USC Annenberg, kindly interviewed me on her podcast, Social Media for Social Impact. The topic: "Beyond the Likes: Why Popularity Isn’t Real Influence on Social Media." Have a listen... podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b... #socialmedia #influencermarketing

This came with my Sunday NY Times (it includes a small pack of tissues). On that note, "Aliens" sounds like an excellent choice.

Me: "Get up! It's #Caturday!" Scooter: "Knock yourself out. I'm staying here."

I'll be speaking at the RedNote (Xiaohongshu) Creator Summit in Venice, CA on May 16. #influencermarketing #China #creators
