Men don't always have to be strong; it's unrealistic to expect that. Surround yourself with people who understand that there are moments when you can feel weak and vulnerable. Do not believe anyone who encourages you to suffer in silence. They're F*CKN toxic. #men #mentalhealth

Guys! Let’s normalise therapy as an essential part of self-care and personal growth. REMEMBER, seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. You deserve to live your best life, and therapy can be an invaluable tool on that journey. #menlightenment #mentalhealth #men

Knowing HOW TO THINK is far more important and will take you further than those who only know WHAT TO THINK. #CriticalThinking

Normalise balancing vulnerability and strength. Let’s help boys and men understand that being able to open up and to show emotions is a sign of strength. Not a weakness.

No surprise here. @AlboMP has confirmed he is banning the use of #tiktok in all state and fed devices due to security concerns. Next step? Probably nothing. We’ll sit and wait to see what America does next. #TikTokBan

For too many, the answer is quit: Instead of fixing the Fed, start a different currency. Instead of healing our divides, split the nation in 2. Instead of bettering the planet, colonize another. But we’re stuck here, and with each other. #nomercynomalice https://t.co/UtNC8bT54l

Here's the best metaphor I've seen for why the business model pioneered by Facebook has been so damaging. From Gerd Gigerenzer. If only they had put the effort into micropayments, rather than ad markets. https://t.co/vLXghmbfy9

“Do we have two Americas in Silicon Valley?” @PivotPod's @profgalloway asks, posing the question of whether "lawmakers and Americans are trying to ask, 'should we be backstopping Americans or agents of chaos?'”

A President and wealthiest man have both (openly) mocked the disabled. Polar opposite of what it means to be American, or a man. https://t.co/Ph9qaibN0S

Linkedin DMs be like: Hey Gerardo. I’m reaching out because I notice you are human and I am human too. What a coincidence! Are you open for a 45 min call today at 1pm to discuss our lead generation program?
