The myth of anonymity

Like how on earth is “anonymous feedback” supposed to work in a tiny team setting?

Do we have to write each other’s feedback to obfuscate the original author? Or do we all tell ChatGPT to do a rewrite so there’s just one voice?

It’s so primitive and simplistic but amazingly accurate.

Bottom of the barrel

I was so close to sending this back to the rando cold email (from someone with arguably one of the most punchable faces I’ve seen this year) trying to sell his amazing SEO services to help fix our topical authority:
