Imagine doing a “I’m going to send you a ‘plz fix, thx’ email during your mom’s funeral” photoshoot
While work-life balance may give you a sense of happiness and fulfillment, it isn’t always realistic, says Walmart executive vice president and chief people officer Donna Morris.
Walmart exec: ‘I’ve never believed in the term work-life balance’—this is the mantra that made her highly successful instead
Many professionals see work-life balance as a non-negotiable. Walmart CPO Donna Morris says people should practice work-life integration instead. Here's why.

This is a lot, but (allegedly) Olivia Nuzzi sent a secret recorder with a sketch artist to tape Trump at Mar-a-Lago so she could feed campaign intel to RFK, where [pauses to take a breath] something Trump said about his assassination attempt “would shatter our understanding of recent history”??

Governor is now waffling on original claim - attack happened, definitely on WV NG - but the victims may not have died. MTF.
Almost certainly a targeted attack at two people who had basically nothing to do with the moment and would have preferred to be home with their families. Compounded tragedy.

Huge opportunity for a 10Y-backed GENIUS Act-compliant stablecoin to solve this liquidity crisis, now if we refer back to Satoshi’s original white paper from 20009 you can see that…

DOGE likely killed a few hundred thousand people already and participated in a direct attack on Constitutional government.
They’re still out there, too - pulling the copper out of walls, even a wretched McKinsey partner at Department of the Navy who should be in iron shackles.
Maybe start there.

We all believe in improving efficiency, and a team genuinely focused on that could do a world of good.
But the DOGE we could have had is a far cry from the DOGE we actually got.
