This is a People First post that was originally on the People First domain. It has been moved here as part of my domain consolidation program. It’s a steady and slow WIP as I check each entry, so do please bear with me.- More about People First

Considering the ongoing and growing concern that we humans are turning our oceans into plastic, I can’t help wondering if Catalina (Apple’s new MacOS) is some kind of metaphor for it being a ‘rock in an ocean of plastic’?

Its a couple of years since this was released - but still relevant today - and definitely relevant to People First, so capturing it in the archives.
Sorry - I can’t recall where I got this from - BUT 🔗📼 for all Escher and Penrose fans a short mesmerising video.

The Anti-CEO Playbook
I am not usually slow in attacking the nature of business, but not sure the 'Anti-CEO' playbook is exactly the right angle here. That said Hamid Ulukaya's points are excellent. How he built Chobani is a fascinating story. And at one point I was very much reminded me of a couple of People First tenets.
The American Dream
All that is needed ... just three minutes of your time. A little more 'political' than the usual People First posts ... George Carlin - Life Is Worth Losing.

John Steinbeck’s Nobel Prize Speech.
via Brainpickings
For all in the UK - something to make you feel better. This link is cued to start at the right place - 15 seconds. For some reason the embed isn’t taking it.
(Except now it is! Go figure!)
(I really wanted to try the new micro.blog video upload - but looks like ‘Mr Pie’ has a control to stop trimming. Well - specifically, if trimmed … you don’t get to share. Makes sense I guess.
Rutger Bregam talking to Trevor Noah on The Daily Show.
Rutger exemplifies the thinking that The Correspondent will be delivering to the US market from September 30th of this year.
🎵 Damn it … if it’s going to get worm its way into my ear … then it can worm its way into yours.
When i saw this protest outside of Downing Street … I was reminded of this quote …
”The way to make money is to buy when blood is running in the streets.”
John D. Rockefeller
If you have a spare 21 minutes and 26 seconds …. spend it here … now .. I don’t know how John Oliver can make something so funny and depressing at the same time - but he does … in spades.
You’ll also learn more about Brexit than you ever expected and it is all spot on.

Enjoy
Omnifocus, Things, ToDoist, Wunderlist even possibly Bullet Journal users … seems like we might have been thinking about this all wrong.
