So we had the idea to take some time every weekday every morning to summarize all the most important news items, content pieces, and knowledge bombs and serve them on this beautiful point form platter - easy for your consumption.

Thursday! Does anyone else feel like this week is zipping by? Some huge news came out yesterday on the Elon Musk x Twitter situation. This has been a bit of an ongoing slap fight between Musk and Twitter. We checked out some of the tweets from employees, and the morality seems quite low... We're hoping Twitter's employees come out unscathed.
