Just saw the most unconventional and awesome talk by Belle Phenomeq on the sexualization of the female nipple. Wow!
It ended with her pulling out a butcher knife to remove the offending body part!!
@evacide unfortunately I don't think so.
Really beautiful talk on visualizing relationships by @amoration at #bil

What what @VirginAmerica and @AlaskaAir ?!?! #acquisition
@rightfuture good point
Dear @AlaskaAir - If you embrace & extend the @VirginAmerica travel experience you will WIN the US travel market for 20+ years!
I think the point is, the way we do taxes, the whole concept of taxes is out dated.
Adding more tax regulation is just gonna unlock a new level tax gamification.
Cultural change, the eradication of a colonial exploitive mindset, is what needs to revolutionized. #spicemustflow
@amoration well you could, but repercussions.
How come no one is making Trump Baron Harkonnen comparisons? You heard it first here folks. #spicemustflow
@amoration those will be some good chuckles.
I must be crazy, but I love being a producer. #bosslady #makinfilms
Hey @chrismessina, you should pop by IIW end of April, so I can interview for the documentary on internet identity I'm producing. :)

@MaverickMMedia the 8 minute cut is impressive. But I do hold a soft spot for the Wizard of Oz.
@MaverickMMedia it's pretty interesting. I still love the original black/blue cuts of the witches when Dorothy lands in Oz.
@MaverickMMedia and then later, when the Lion gets scared of the wizard and jumps (Up), runs down the hall (and Down....) out the window
@MaverickMMedia no screens needed. I just play this as loud as I can handle with the star projector on the ceiling: https://youtu.be/jLgf1eSPgbw

@babushka99 Been happening from my perspective for a while. Since I co-wrote new regulations for sharing econ businesses in 2014...
The unintended consequence here, is the hidden social beliefs about regulation being a PITA. Regulation = security https://twitter.com/babushka99/status/722792146374295555
@babushka99 interesting to hear those previously against regulation, embracing it. But the Tao flows through all, including fintech.
@babushka99 it's the spec for my small town. I will try to dig up a blog post. I speak on it a lot. Will be in Melbourne next month.
@babushka99 I came to realize, it's as critical as the technology changes. But we have a lot of baggage w/ the beliefset.
